Summary of the most interesting economic events from the trading week 16 - 22 September 2024

We have had another week in which central banks played a big role. Let's recall together an important event.

EUR

On Tuesday, we got inflation data from the eurozone, which was negative for the euro. The core inflation rate fell to 2.2 % year-on-year, the lowest since July 2021. Core inflation slowed slightly to 2.8 %. The data was broadly as estimated, so no surprises. The ECB announced that it will pause rate cuts in October while it assesses the expected increase in price pressures. At the moment I would take this as negative news for the euro through the downturn, but the ECB will still be on the lookout to meet its inflation target.
