Slight delay in the release by the source. Rare delays by INSEE I would say, the report is up on the site but it's not viewable upon clicking. Anyway, the readings here meet expectations on all fronts. A slight uptick relative to May and that is a positive development at least for the French economy with regards to inflation.
