PREVIEW-Danish inflation seen steady, C/A surplus growing
COPENHAGEN, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Danish consumer prices are
estimated to have risen in August at the same annual pace as in
July, and the current account and trade surplus were seen
growing, a Reuters survey of economists showed on Friday.
The consumer price index according to the EU-harmonised
method (HICP) was seen rising 0.7 percent year-on-year in
August, unchanged from July, and CPI (NYSE: CPY - news) by the national method was
seen up 1.0 percent, also steady at the July rate, the survey of
six economists showed.
The July current account surplus was seen growing to 4.6
billion Danish crowns ($881.7 million) from 3.4 billion crowns
in June.
Four of the analysts saw the trade surplus widening to 3.7
billion crowns on average in July from 3.6 billion in June.
The national statistics office will release the inflation
data on Thursday, Sept. 10 and the current account and trade
balance figures on Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 0730 GMT.
