Elevated energy prices stemming from Middle East supply disruptions have driven Eurozone HICP inflation to 3.2% in May 2026, up from 3.0% in April, prompting the EU Commission to revise its 2026 average forecast upward to 3.0%. This near-term momentum, alongside ECB staff projections centering near 3% for the full year, underpins the 58.9% market-implied odds for a 3.1%+ annual outcome. Core pressures have also broadened, with services and goods components firming. Traders appear to price in limited near-term relief ahead of the ECB's June policy meeting and June 17 final May data release, while the 39.7% odds on sub-1% reflect tail risks of sharper energy normalization or growth weakness.

This market will resolve according to the percentage change in the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) over the 12-month period ending December 2026, according to the monthly Eurostat report.
The resolution source for this market will be the Eurostat Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices monthly report released for December 2026, currently scheduled to be released on January 19, 2027. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data. If no data for the specified month is released by the date the next month's data is scheduled to be released, this market will resolve based on data from the last available month.
You can find this report on the Eurostat website (https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/en/) by selecting the "Database" option from the "Data" dropdown, opening the "Data navigation tree" folder, then the "Economy and finance" folder, then the "Prices (prc)" folder, then the "Harmonised index of consumer prices (HICP) (prc_hicp)" folder, and opening the file named "HICP - monthly data (annual rate of change) (prc_hicp_manr)". The relevant figure can be found in the column for the relevant month in the row marked "Euro area - 20 countries (from 2023)".
Note: the resolution source for this market will be the official monthly Eurostat HICP news release which reports inflation change over 12-month periods to only one decimal point (e.g. 1.9%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. For the full release schedule, see: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/main/news/release-calendar or https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/calendars/statscal/ges/html/sthicp.en.html
