    Denmark’s annual consumer price inflation eased to 1.7% in July from 1.9% in June, with the consumer price index rising 1.3% from the previous month. Core inflation remained steady at 2.3%, with restaurants and hotels contributing the most to July inflation. Holiday home rental prices were the main driver within that category, while lower clothing and footwear prices offset some of the monthly increase. Denmark’s harmonized index of consumer prices fell to 1.6% in July, down from 1.8% in June.
