Eurozone inflation rose unexpectedly in November and moved away from the European Central Bank's target, flash data published by Eurostat showed on Tuesday. Inflation rose to 2.2 percent in November, while it was expected to remain unchanged at 2.1 percent. The rate remained slightly above the ECB's 2 percent target. Final data is due on December 17. Excluding volatile energy, food, alcohol and tobacco prices, core inflation held steady at 2.4 percent, in line with expectations.
