NRW CPI Adds To Tuesday’s Downdraft In ECB Pricing

STIR

NRW CPI dynamics out of Germany help ECB-dated OIS adjust lower in early Wednesday trade. That leaves ~50bp of hikes priced in before terminal rate levels are reached (3.75% in ECB deposit rate terms), with terminal rate pricing shifting lower by 10bp vs. Friday’s close, as well as moving forwards to September vs. December.

  • A quick reminder that the NRW CPI release covers the most populous region in Germany. The print saw a 0.2% M/M dip alongside a slowing in the headline Y/Y reading to +5.7% from +6.7% in April. The national reading was expected to print at +0.2% M/M & +6.5% Y/Y (per the BBG survey), meaning that this state CPI represents a softer than expected reading.
  • State and preliminary CPI data out of Germany will continue to filter in on Wednesday, with French & Italian CPI readings further bulking out the regional docket. ECB speak from Villeroy, Muller & Visco is also due, as is the full release of the Bank’s latest Financial Stability Review.
