Little Movement In EUR STIR As ECB Speakers Stick To Script

STIR

ECB implied rates were broadly unchanged on today's ECB Executive Board speakers.

  • OIS contracts price 87bps of rate cuts through the remainder of '24, with 20bps of easing showing through the June meeting.
  • To recap, President Lagarde's speech focused on familiar matters covered by ECB speakers in recent weeks i.e. having a lot more data by the June meeting vs April.
  • Lane and Schnabel's appearances were more academic, discussing the ECB's inflation forecasts and R*.
  • Euribor futures are -3.0 to +1.0 through the blues at typing.
  • The Fed decision at 1800GMT/1900CET provides the immediate macro risk event, while tomorrow's regional calendar is highlighted by the flash round of March PMI data.
