10 February 2025 Eurozone Monitor ECB policymakers will struggle to stay neutral on neutral

  • Attempts by the ECB to persuade markets to give up focusing on the neutral rate are laudable, but futile.
  • The ECB’s own forecasts suggest that the policy rate should stabilise at neutral, wherever that is.
  • EZ industrial production fell sharply in December, but we look for a solid rebound in January.

6 February 2025 Eurozone Monitor News of a crash in 2025 EZ wage growth is greatly exaggerated

  • Bonds rallied yesterday on dovish headlines in the ECB’s wage tracker, but the details beg to differ. 
  • The EU is ready to strike back at US tariffs, but we still see a low risk of a prolonged tariff spat. 
  • ‘Habemus budget’ in France; industrial output fell in December, but it will rebound in January.

4 February 2025 Eurozone Monitor A 10pp hike in US tariffs on EU imports priced in by EURUSD

  • President Trump will soon impose tariffs on imports from the EU, but the details are still up in the air. 
  • A 10pp increase in tariffs on EU goods is all but fully factored in by the drop in EURUSD since Q3. 
  • EZ headline and core inflation beat the consensus in January; still no perfect landing at 2% in sight.

3 February 2025 Eurozone Monitor Risks tilted slightly to the downside for EZ headline inflation today

  • We now see EZ headline inflation unchanged at 2.4% in January, with a 0.1pp dip in the core, to 2.6%.
  • Selling price expectations are rising in Germany and France, but core inflation will dip further in Q1.
  • Is the consumption recovery in the Eurozone finally kicking in? We think so.

EZ Datanote: Advance GDP, France, Q4-24

In one line: A drop, as expected, but the details point to robust domestic demand.
