MADRID, April 12 (Reuters) - Underlying inflation in the
euro zone is proving sticky and the European Central Bank is
less optimistic about its trajectory than about overall price
pressures, ECB Vice President Luis de Guindos said on Wednesday.
"We believe core inflation provides a better signal of
medium-term inflationary trends," de Guindos said in Madrid.
"Headline inflation will continue to decelerate but on core
inflation we are not so optimistic."
