Peak BoE And ECB Hike Pricing Regains Ground Ahead Of PMIs, Lagarde

STIR

ECB and BoE peak hike pricing regained ground Monday after Friday's drop.


BoE terminal Bank Rate pricing +6.3bp to 6.08% (83bp of further hikes left in the cycle to Mar 2024) - After dipping earlier in the session (some cited an ONS paper eyeing a pullback in core inflation pressures the past 2 months), implied peak rates rebounded, retracing about half their 13bp drop seen on Friday.

  • There's 28% prob of a 50bp hike in Sept, with 55bp priced cumulatively through the next 2 meetings.

ECB terminal depo Rate pricing +2.1bp to 3.97% (22bp of further hikes left in the cycle to Dec 2023). ECB peak pricing finished Monday at the highest since Jul 26th, though the 4.00% mark remains elusive ahead of Wednesday's PMIs and Friday's speech by ECB Pres Lagarde at Jackson Hole which are the most evident potential market movers this week.

  • That said there's 14.5bp priced for September's meeting (just under 40% prob of a 25bp hike, only slightly below last Thursday's closing level) and 20bp through the next two meetings.
