Euro inflation accelerates
Inflation shot up across continental Europe in December, but analysts insisted on Tuesday that lagging effects of oil price rises are not about to destabilise consumers and central banks.
Prices in the 16 eurozone countries climbed by 0.9 percent. That was a loosening from the 0.5 percent revised reading for November which marked the first time that prices, on a 12-month basis, had risen since April.
