- SONIA futures flat to +2.0, with implied terminal rate pricing steady, hovering around 3.35%. SFIZ6 is 5bp off November’s cycle high.
- Final services and composite PMI data is due this morning, tangible market reaction would only be seen on a meaningful departure from the preliminary 50.5 reading in the services PMI.

RIKSBANK: VIEW: Danske Look For Hiking Cycle To Start In Dec '26
Danske Bank have updated their Riksbank call. They now expect a 25bp hike in December ‘26 (previously unchanged) and another 25bp hike in March ‘27.
- They note that the economic recovery has “progressed at a solid pace since the second quarter of this year and full-year growth for 2025 is expected to reach close to 2%. Moreover, both hard and soft data indicate that the economy is on track to strengthen further”.
- They go on to flag that “resource utilisation remains low, implying that there are idle resources in the economy. The labour market is also mostly moving in the right direction, so fears of high unemployment levels may soon give way to greater optimism”.

S&P E-Minis are holding on to their recent gains following the recovery from the Nov 21 low. The climb has resulted in a breach of the 20- and 50- day EMAs. This highlights a bullish development and the likely end of the corrective cycle between Oct 30 and Nov 21. A continuation higher would signal scope for a move towards the key resistance and bull trigger at 6953.75, the Oct 30 high. Key support lies at 6525.00, the Nov 21 low.
