Swedish CPI inflation report for May was released today at 7:00 am BST and turned out to be a hawkish surprise. Headline CPI inflation slowed much less than expected, while core CPI unexpectedly accelerated to 3.0% YoY. SEK moved sharply higher following the release with EURSEK dropping around 0.3%. However, big part of the move has been erased already.
Markets are pricing in more than a full rate cut from Riksbank by August. However, higher and persistent inflation may change Banks plans and they may communicate it on the June meeting.
