OSLO, March 10 (Reuters) - Norway's core inflation
slowed more than economists had expected in February, Statistics
Norway (SSB) data showed on Friday, but was in line with the
central bank's own forecast.
Core inflation, which strips out changing energy prices and
taxes, stood at 5.9% year-on-year, down from a record 6.4% in
January, below the 6.3% average prediction among analysts polled
by Reuters.
