EUROPEAN INFLATION: HICP tracking at 2.0% with marginal downside risks
Sep-02 08:25
With the majority of Eurozone countries having now released flash HICP prints (summing to 92.4% of the Eurozone total) we track the pan-Eurozone print at 2.0% with slightly risks skewed marginally to the downside (albeit we have to calculate some of the tracking from rounded figures so there is still a chance of a 2.1% print in line with the Bloomberg consensus).

BOE: VIEW CHANGE: Santander look for no cuts through end 2026
Sep-02 08:14
- Santander now look for no BOE cuts between now and the end of 2026. It notes that "the change reflects a stickier inflation outlook, with CPI peaking at 4.2% this autumn, still at 4.0% at end-2025 and easing only gradually to 3% by mid-2026, leaving the Bank of England little scope to cut without undermining credibility."
- Note that Santander's previous view was already more dovish than consensus, expecting a November hold with 2x25bp cuts in February and April to a terminal 3.50%.
