Analyst: Amidst the dark clouds, the European Central Bank may keep interest rates unchanged

ChainCatcher news, analysts Claus Vistesen and Melanie Debono from Pantheon Macroeconomics believe that in the face of increasing economic uncertainty, the European Central Bank may choose to remain cautious and keep interest rates unchanged at this month's meeting. This week's data shows that annual overall inflation in the Eurozone continues to slow down, approaching the European Central Bank's 2% target, with core prices also declining. However, Vistesen and Debono stated that risks related to energy prices and other factors remain in the coming months.

Meanwhile, Europe is facing turmoil and the pressure of trade tariffs on economic growth, while also having to grapple with the ambiguous effects of internal stimulus plans on infrastructure, particularly in the defense sector.
