As the European Central Bank prepares for its next key interest rate decision, a drop in wholesale prices from Germany provides a glimmer of relief. In August, the biggest economy in the Eurozone saw wholesale prices fall by 0.8%, a significant shift from the 0.3% rise in July. This downward trend comes at a crucial time, as both businesses and banks are clamoring for easier credit conditions. The latest data may influence the ECB's move, which is expected to lean towards further rate cuts.
