  • Lane also warns on the risks of keeping policy restrictive for too long, while stressing that the bulk of the impact of the current tightening cycle with be relatively backloaded.
  • Elsewhere, BdF Governor Villeroy (seen as an influential centrist) pushes back on the idea that the ECB could not move in back-to-back meetings, highlighting the need for “maximum optionality,” albeit with data dependence stressed.
  • Bunds rally to fresh session highs of 130.40 on the move, while German yields are 3-5bp lower on the day as the bull steepening theme holds.
  • Peripherals tighten further vs. Bunds, with BTPs now 2bp narrower on the day, at 128bp.
