Latest data released by INSEE - 12 April 2018

  • Prior m/m 0.0%
  • CPI y/y +1.6% vs +1.5% prelim
  • Prior y/y +1.2%
  • HICP m/m +1.1% vs +1.1% prelim
  • HICP y/y +1.7% vs +1.7% prelim

More or less in line with preliminary figures. But the uptick in March figures should keep the ECB happy, although it is more than likely boosted by seasonality - Easter.
