German August EU-harmonised CPI confirmed at 0.2% m/m

The absence of a revision matters more than the print itself: it removes one source of uncertainty around the euro area's largest inflation component ahead of aggregate figures. The signal is procedural rather than directional — a confirmed flash tells markets the German data pipeline is behaving as expected, leaving the broader disinflation narrative intact without adding new information. What is worth watching is whether national prints across the bloc show similar stability when the euro-area aggregate lands, since Germany alone cannot settle the ECB's read.
