BREAKING: EURUSD trades lower after ECB cuts rates by 25pb ๐Ÿ“Œ

01:15 PM GMT, Euro Zone - ECB Interest Rate Decision for December:

  • actual 3.15%; forecast 3.15%; previous 3.40%;

The ECB held rates steady, cutting the deposit rate to 3% and the main interest rate to 3.15%, in line with expectations. The ECB dropped the term "restrictive," signalling a less aggressive stance, but refrained from committing to a specific rate path.

  • Inflation forecasts align with the 2% target by 2026, but domestic inflation remains elevated due to delayed wage adjustments.
  • Growth projections are downgraded, with domestic demand expected to rebound gradually as policy effects fade.
  • PEPP portfolio is declining by €7.5 billion/month as reinvestments stop.
  • Traders maintain expectations for 127 bps of rate cuts by 2025.
