The ECB cut rates by 25bp as widely anticipated, but a slightly hawkish tilt bear flattened the EUR curve, which in our view remains priced aggressively. In the US, as the markets head towards the Fed's first rate cut, the probability of a larger cut rose slightly on Thursday.

Rates Spark: ECB Presser Bear-Flattened The Curve

Former ECB President Mario Draghi's 400 pages of economists' ‘greatest hits' and a few more controversial proposals provide Europe's most comprehensive plan yet to revive its economy, decarbonise and become more self-sufficient. Economic growth in Europe has been weak compared to the US and China for a long time, but the sense of urgency around economic reform outside of crises was lacking.

Draghi's €800bn Call To Action: Instilling The Urgency That Europe Needs

The drop in eurozone inflation from 2.6 to 2.2% was mainly because of energy inflation but does confirm the view that the inflation environment is slowly getting more benign. The ECB has arrived on a long home straight when it comes to bringing inflation back to target.

Eurozone Inflation Drops To 2.2% In August

The composite PMI increased from 50.2 to 51.2 from July to August, mainly due to a jump in French services activity. Meanwhile, eurozone manufacturing continues to be a big disappointment.

Eurozone PMI Picks Up In August Amid Olympics Boost

Eurozone GDP growth in the second quarter beat expectations and maintains the growth pace of 0.3% quarter-on-quarter seen in the first quarter. With unemployment low and inflation more benign, the economy is undoubtedly in a better situation than it was, for example, a year ago.

The deteriorating eurozone growth trend was led by France, which saw output fall for a second consecutive month and at the fastest rate for five months. Fueling the manufacturing downturn was a steepening in the rate of loss of new orders.

Inflation Slows Further As Economic Growth Wanes: Our Key Takeaways From The Eurozone Flash PMI

French bond markets are selling off for a second day as investors adjust positions ahead of the unexpected French parliamentary elections later this month. We take a look at how European bond, FX and credit markets could perform.

How French Politics Could Affect European Asset Markets In June

The eurozone economy continues to recover, but there are no reasons to expect a significant acceleration in growth. With some pockets of inflationary pressures still hanging around, the ECB's rate-cutting cycle will unfold very slowly.

Cautious Monetary Easing In The Eurozone Has Started

The European Central Bank cut interest rates by 25bps, bringing the deposit rate down to 3.75%. Inflation is expected to come in at 2.5% in 2024, 2.2% in 2025 and 1.9% in 2026.

3 Takeaways From Today's ECB Meeting

We expect a slight upward revision of growth and inflation for this year, but no changes to the profile and the timing of inflation dropping below 2%. The ECB's forecasts of inflation dropping below 2% and staying there from the second half of 2025 onwards give the ECB the room to gradually reduce rates in line with the market expectations included in the staff projections.

ECB Preview: 'One Is None' Or 'One And Done'?

Business activity in the euro area rose for a third successive month in May, the rate of growth accelerating to a one-year-high. Price pressures cooled, with services sector inflation - the recent stickiness of which has been a major concern for policymakers worried about sustained elevated inflation.

Stronger Growth And Lower Inflation: Our Key Takeaways From The Eurozone Flash PMI

Declining inflation and slower growth have contributed to the rising potential for rate cuts in Europe. Eurozone core inflation has been coming down more quickly than similar measures in the U.S. and the U.K. If the euro were to weaken and drop through parity, that might give the ECB pause about cutting rates.

Why The European Central Bank Is Embracing The Idea Of Rate Cuts

Eurozone GDP grew by 0.3% in the first quarter, and that's the strongest growth since the third quarter of 2022 when the energy crisis started.

The Eurozone Economy Finally Exits Stagnation And Enters Recovery

The PMI increased from 50.3 to 51.4 in April, suggesting that the eurozone economy is finally leaving stagnation and returning to growth at the start of the second quarter. Inflationary pressures remain for the service sector, but don't expect this to deter the ECB from cutting rates.

Eurozone PMI Signals A Pickup In Growth

Invesco CurrencyShares Euro Trust

Along with rising speculation of EUR/USD approaching parity, the old question of how the European Central Bank should react to exchange rate movements is returning. We think that the falling euro is not the ECB's biggest concern on the road to a June rate cut.

A Falling Euro Is Not The ECB's Biggest Headache

Franklin FTSE France ETF

Business activity in the euro area came close to stabilising in March, as provisional PMI® survey data registered only a marginal decline in output of goods and services.

Eurozone Flash PMI Shows Economy Close To Stabilising In March, Price Pressures Ease

The eurozone escaped a technical recession, and a number of indicators suggest the economy is now bottoming out. The ECB is expected to cut rates from June onwards, but more cautiously than the market is currently anticipating.

The Eurozone Economy Is Bottoming Out

The flash estimate shows a decline in eurozone HICP inflation from 2.9% to 2.8% in January, with core inflation declining to 3.3% from 3.4% in December. However, it's too soon to declare victory in the inflation battle. As industry and retail are still struggling with excess inventories, non-energy industrial goods price inflation continues to fall and now stands at 2%.

German Inflation Drops To Its Lowest Level Since June 2021

iShares MSCI Europe Financials ETF

The European Central Bank left interest rates unchanged, without conveying any urgency to start cutting rates in the next few months. It seems most likely that June or July would be the preferred time to start cutting rates.

ECB In Little Rush To Cut Rates

Business activity in the euro area fell at the slowest rate for six months in January, according to provisional PMI survey data. The PMI in fact suggests that the Eurozone is enduring its deepest contraction since 2013 (if early pandemic months are excluded), albeit with recent months hinting at a bottoming out of the downturn.

Insurers likely face a very different investment regime today than they have in the past, with higher and more volatile interest rates as well as structurally higher inflation.
