What this release is

France’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) month over month measures the average change in prices paid by consumers for a basket of goods and services across the nation. This monthly report, published by France’s national statistics office, insee.fr, provides a key indicator of inflation within the prices sector.

Forex traders closely monitor this inflation data because it offers insights into the economic health of the Eurozone’s second-largest economy. Persistent price changes can influence the European Central Bank’s monetary policy decisions, particularly regarding interest rates. Higher or lower inflation trends in France can contribute to the broader economic outlook for the Euro currency.

Upon release, the headline CPI figure typically captures immediate market attention, as it can prompt notable market movements for the Euro. Traders also consider any revisions to previous month’s data, which can provide further context on underlying price trends. This monthly report is a regular fixture on the economic calendar.

How we measure: moves come from our own MT4 price feed and our archived minute bars, sampled 5, 15 and 60 minutes after each release against the pre-release price. No estimates, no third-party numbers. Releases where our feed had a gap are skipped, never guessed.

These are counts of what happened after past releases, conditional on the surprise direction. They are history, not a forecast, and never a trade recommendation. Sample sizes are shown because small samples mislead; rows stay locked until the sample is honest.

Reaction = EURUSD move 60 minutes after the release, measured from our own price history. Story links appear for releases our news desk covered; every release gets a row here whether or not it gets a story. Values from before our live tracking began are the current figures in the official statistical series, so they include later revisions; live rows record the number as printed.

Market statistics, not financial advice. All reaction figures are measured from our own price feed under our published methodology.
