CZK: Koruna Loses Ground

CZK

EUR/CZK changes hands +0.016 at 25.093 and bulls continued to look for gains beyond the 50-DMA, which kicks in at 25.210. Bears look for a clean breach of the 25.0 figure.

  • CZGB yields curve has shifted lower, in line with trends across CE3 and core FI space. The PX Index has shed 0.6%, falling to its lowest point this month.
  • CNB Deputy Governor Zamrazilova yesterday said that while she does not see any reason to halt monetary easing, outsize interest-rate cuts should be avoided. She added that "we have to be very, very careful."
  • Zamrazilova spoke after data from the CZSO revealed that inflation stayed at +2.2% Y/Y, exceeding the consensus forecast of +2.0% and the CNB's projection of +1.8%. Core inflation also came in above expectations.
