STIR: Limited Dovish Spillover From BoE Bailey Comments

STIR

The dovish adjustment in EUR STIRs over the past two weeks has limited the reaction to BoE Governor Bailey’s comments this morning (see our UK-specific posts for more colour there). Euribor futures are -1.5 to +0.5 ticks through the blues at typing.

  • There were several ECB speakers yesterday evening. Executive Board members’ Schnabel and de Guindos did little to push back on an October cut, while Centeno struck an unsurprisingly dovish tone.
  • The typically hawkish-leaning Vasle provided a slightly more cautious view, but even then did not exclude a rate cut in October.
  • ECB-dated OIS continue to price 23bps of easing through the October meeting and 152bps through the June 2025 gathering.
  • Today’s regional data calendar is headlined by the September services PMIs (finals for France, Germany and EZ). A reminder that the French flash PMI was 6.7 points lower than August’s print, as Olympic-related optimism unwound.
