ECB tightening expectations have stabilized
“The euro rally yesterday ran out of steam near 1.0360, which is the 62% retracement objective of the June-July drop. It is testing that level again today and a clean break above would set up a test of the June 27 high near 1.0615.”
“WIRP suggests a 50 bps hike is nearly 90% priced in for September 8. The swaps market is pricing in 125-150 bps of tightening over the next 12 months that would see the deposit rate peak between 1.25-1.50%, steady from the start of this week but up from 125 bps at the start of last week.”
