German Inflation Not Bad
Germany reported inflation in line with expectations at 2.2 percent harmonized CPI. Low inflation in Germany is important because it allows the ECB wiggle-room regarding easing monetary policy.
The German public is terrified of inflation and panic is growing following a statement by a member of parliament who said last week that Germany will have to deal with increased inflation to help rebalance problems in the EU. Germany's largest newspaper responded by printing a headline that read "Inflation Alarm!"
iShares MSCI Germany Index (NYSE: EWG), an ETF that tracks German stocks is expected to open flat, in line with DAX which is down 0.2 percent overnight.
