  "summary": "German inflation slowed more than expected in October, the first month of a government fuel tax cut, indicating that Europe's largest economy could be more resilient than anticipated despite disruptions linked to the war in Iran. Inflation eased to 2.8 percent year-on-year, below forecasts for 3.1 percent, driven by easing energy price rises. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, fell to 2.1 percent from 2.4 percent the month before.",
