ECB Says Consumer Inflation Expectations Rose Significantly
Consumer
expectations for euro-zone inflation rose “significantly” in March — bolstering
the case of European Central Bank officials who say interest-rate increases may
need to persist beyond the summer.
Expectations for the next 12 months increased to 5% from 4.6% in
February, the ECB said Thursday in its monthly survey. For three years ahead,
they climbed to 2.9% from 2.4% — further above the 2% medium-term target.
The ECB last week slowed the pace of its rate hikes to 25 basis
points, with several Governing Council members saying the toughest tightening
campaign in the institution’s history will conclude soon. Some, however, are starting to suggest that tightening may need to continue for longer
than the two more moves that economists predict.
Money markets on Thursday bolstered hike wagers, pricing the peak in the deposit rate to within 5 basis points of 3.75% — a level last seen a week ago.
Views by consumers and investors on how
prices will develop is one factor the ECB considers in setting policy.
President Christine Lagarde said May 4 that “although most measures of
longer-term inflation expectations currently stand at around 2%, some
indicators have edged up and warrant continued monitoring.”
While headline inflation has slowed to 7%
from its double-digit peak, a measure that strips out volatile items including
food and energy is still near a record high.
“Inflation is still very sticky,” Bundesbank
President Joachim Nagel told Bloomberg Television on Thursday in Niigata,
Japan, where he’s attending the meeting of Group of Seven finance chiefs. He
described price gains as “a very stubborn phenomenon.”
While Bank of France chief Francois Villeroy
de Galhau said there’s only a “marginal” distance left to cover in raising
borrowing costs — similar to the view of analysts — Nagel said “there’s nothing
off the table” for the ECB’s September meeting.

Otra mentalidad muy distinta…, donde se compite en mercado abierto por precio, no en esos oligopolios, regulados e intervenidos, occidentales…
Abrazos,
PD: Si vives en paz, gozas de un
cierto equilibrio interior, y disfrutas de las cosas pequeñas de la vida,
normalmente tendrás un nivel de autoestima adecuado. Y serás más feliz...
Si te falta la paz, por problemas en el trabajo, por estrés, por la salud tuya o de los tuyos, por falta de amores, por ansiedad, por envidia, por rencor…, se le puede poner remedio. Busca las causas, obedece a los médicos, y ten confianza en que todo se solucionará. Reza al Señor para que te de la paz, fuente de la alegría.
