Spain | Energy brings inflation to negative rates in August
Summary
Headline inflation returned to negative territory due to the sharp fall in energy prices. However, core inflation remained virtually stable again. Looking forward, BBVA Research expects that the positive trend of the core component will be consolidated, although some small and transitory decline in headline prices cannot be ruled out in the short term.
