BoE Cut Pricing Deepens, ECB Implied Hikes Stuck At 1bp

STIR

ECB and BoE rate pricing was little changed Tuesday, though as with broader FI, UK rates outperformed Euro counterparts.

  • ECB peak hike pricing was unchanged, with just 1bp of increases still implied by a 4.01% Dec 2023 depo rate peak (has been 1-to-3bp since Oct 3rd). The pricing for cuts was pared a little today though alongside a risk-on tone seeing equities buoyed: 76bp of cuts are implied from the peak through the subsequent 12 months, around 0.5bp less than had been seen at Monday's close.
  • Conversely, more BoE cuts were priced: now over 71bp in the year from the Feb 2024 peak, 2.5bp more than seen Monday and the most since late September. There's just 7bp of hikes priced for the November meeting, with 13bp priced to a 5.38% peak - little changed from Monday's levels, which are testing the late September lows.
