What happened
European Central Bank officials are discussing the ongoing tightening cycle and inflation trends affecting the eurozone economy. Preliminary September PMIs for the Eurozone, France, and Germany were released, with markets closely watching input and output price details to gauge the European Central Bank's next move. Earlier, the European Central Bank was expected to deliver a 25bp rate hike on September 10.
Why it matters
Softer inflation data, such as the 2.8% annual inflation recorded in June, is reducing the urgency for further interest rate hikes by the European Central Bank. The release of PMI figures and concerns over bond market instability are influencing expectations regarding the European Central Bank's future policy stance.
