- Falling EZ inflation and our call for policy rate cuts mean we do not expect faster ECB QT...
- ...The Bank has pushed ahead with conflicting policies before, however, so the risk remain.
- If we are wrong, the most likely rate of faster ECB balance-sheet shrinkage is tiny, just €30B per month.

- Italian GDP will probably fall in Q4, even if revisions don’t show it declined in the third quarter.
- Budget negotiations are heating up; BTP yields will stay high next year despite a likely fall in spreads.
- Spain may end the year with a government after all, but this won’t change the economic outlook.
Claus Vistesen (Chief Eurozone Economist)Eurozone
- The central message from ECB policymakers is still that interest rates won’t be lowered any time soon...
- ...but we still see a path to a first rate cut in March, as core inflation undershoots the ECB’s forecasts.
- Sticky wage growth and rising unit labour costs are the main threats to our forecasts for cuts in H1 2024.
Claus Vistesen (Chief Eurozone Economist)Eurozone
- German industry was in recession in early H2, and we suspect it will remain so at least to year-end.
- Spanish industry ended Q3 on a high but was still also in recession.
- Construction will continue to struggle; risks to our call for EZ GDP to rebound are to the downside.
