European stock markets moved lower on Friday as attention turned to inflation prints from some of the region's biggest economies, along with the U.S.
By 9:34 a.m. in London (4:34 a.m. ET), the pan-European Stoxx 600 was 0.5% lower, with almost all sectors in negative territory. Among major regional bourses, the French CAC 40 led losses, shedding 0.6%.
French consumer price inflation cooled to 0.8% in August from 0.9% in July, statistics agency Insee said , just below expectations in a Reuters poll of another 0.9% reading. The low figure was due to declines in energy and manufactured product prices, while inflation in food and services came in at 1.6% and 2.1%, respectively.
