Key Quotes
“Judging from the line-up, this could make for a repeat of the Sintra conference in late June (where many a central banker turned hawkish). While it may not provide the same seemingly synchronised policy message it did back then, we do see a good chance that Draghi, in particular, could use this opportunity to underline the seriousness of the talk from recent ECB speakers that markets should not become too complacent as the ECB has entered 'normalisation' mode.”
“In the UK, CPI figures for October are expected to show a small uptick to 3.2%, driven mainly by lingering effects of the weak GBP.”
