STIR: Lagarde Helps EUR STIRs Retrace Earlier Hawkish Adjustment

STIR

ECB-dated OIS price 22bps of easing through the October meeting, as President Lagarde notes that the ECB will take into account stronger confidence in the inflation outlook at that gathering.

  • This follows a less hawkish than usual slide deck from Executive Board member Schnabel last week.
  • There were ~18.5bps of cuts priced through October before Lagarde’s speech was released, with markets having reacted a little hawkishly to this morning’s set of national flash inflation data (though this was more a function of dovish positioning heading into the releases, rather than the numbers themselves).
  • OIS price 148bps of cuts through the June ’25 meeting, still a little below the 151bps seen before this morning’s German state-level data.
  • Euribor futures -1.0 to +2.0 ticks through the blues. ERZ5 and ERZ6 remain short of intraday highs.
