Latest data released by Destatis - 29 March 2019

- Prior -0.2%
- Import price index 1.6% vs +1.7% y/y expected
- Prior +0.8%
Slight delay in the release by the source. More or less in-line with expectations but regardless, the release here is negligible as it is a lagging indicator of inflationary pressures in the German economy as we already had March inflation figures yesterday.
