STIR: Euribor Futures Drifting Lower, Within Yesterday's Ranges
STIR
Euribor futures are -0.5 to +2.0 ticks through the blues, drifting away from session highs over the last 90 minutes. Markets are awaiting a potential announcement from US President Trump on reciprocal tariffs, while assessing the fallout of his call with Putin on the Russia/Ukraine conflict.
- ECB-dated OIS are up to 1.5bps more hawkish through 2025, currently pricing 77bps of cuts through year-end. This is down from 78bps at yesterday’s close and 83bps at the end of Tuesday (largely a function of yesterday's US CPI report).
- Overnight, Bundesbank President Nagel warned against cutting rates too hastily as rates approach neutral. He cited Bundesbank estimates of 1.80-2.50%, wider (and higher) than the heavily caveated 1.75-2.25% range presented by the ECB last week.
- Cipollone (0840GMT) and Nagel (1700GMT) are scheduled to speak today. Today’s regional data calendar includes December industrial production. Consensus expects -0.6% M/M (vs 0.2% prior), but MNI’s tracking points to downside risks.
