The pushback on rate cut bets by ECB officials, prompted by inflationary risks amid strong wage pressures, may helpkeep the bloc’s currency anchored around the 1.075-1.085level in the coming weeks. The ECB is expected to hold ratessteady, at least until European wage negotiations areconcluded. If wage growth exceeds expectations, the ECBmight defer its first rate cut to July or September, potentiallystrengthening the EUR, especially considering ourexpectation of an earlier Fed cut in June.
