Businesses across the Euro Zone lowered their selling price expectations in June 2026, signaling easing pricing pressures in the bloc. The indicator tracking selling price expectations fell to 22.3 in June from 27.4 in May 2026, according to data updated on 29 June 2026.
The decline suggests that companies anticipate a slower pace of price increases than in the previous month. While expectations remain in positive territory—implying that many firms still see room to raise prices—the drop from May indicates a moderation that could support efforts to contain inflation across the euro area. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming readings closely to gauge whether this softening in expectations becomes a sustained trend in the second half of 2026.
