There was a feeling that reading may surprise to the upside after Spanish and German readings showed upside surprises yesterday. However, actual report showed a dovish surprise - headline CPI decelerated from 6.1 to 5.5% YoY in June, more than 5.6% YoY expected. Meanwhile, core gauge accelerated by acceleration was smaller than expected - from 5.3 to 5.4% YoY. Markets reaction was fairly muted - EURUSD ticked higher but scale of gain did not exceed 0.05%.
