The other state readings released around the same time:
Brandenburg CPI +% vs +1.4% y/y prior
Hesse CPI +1.8% vs +1.2% y/y prior
Saxony CPI +% vs +2.4% y/y prior
North Rhine Westphalia CPI +2.0% vs +1.5% y/y prior
Baden Wuerttemberg CPI +2.1% vs +1.4% y/y prior
Just take note that the readings here are much higher than anticipated. And this is likely to see an upside consideration to the estimate for the national reading later. German annual inflation is expected to come in at 1.8% in October but looking at this, we might see it move to around 2.1% instead.
