STIR: 158bp Of ECB Cuts Priced Through '25, French Risks Underpin Euribor

STIR

French political/fiscal risk (outlined elsewhere) promotes modest dovish repricing in EUR STIRs this morning.

  • Euribor futures 0.5-3.0 firmer on the day.
  • ECB-dated OIS little changed to 2bp more dovish on the day, showing 30.5bp of cuts for next week and 158bp of easing through Dec '25.
  • ECB speak didn’t really move the needle this morning, with Lane & Kazaks both reiterating space for further policy easing (a known, market more concerned with the speed of moves at this stage).
  • A reminder that late Friday saw J.P.Morgan pull forward the 50bp cut they had pencilled in from January to December. They suggested that the case for such a move “seems strong given the sharp PMI drop, slowing services inflation momentum, likelihood of persistent trade uncertainty and a starting point of restrictive rates.”
  • Manufacturing PMIs (final for EZ, Germany & France) due today, although more focus will fall on the U.S. ISM equivalent.
