On May 26, Reuters reported that Isabel Schnabel, a member of the European Central Bank's governing council and a potential candidate for ECB president, stated that even if the U.S. and Iran achieve results in peace negotiations, the ECB should still initiate a rate hike in June. She believes that the current energy shock is lasting much longer than expected, and damage to energy infrastructure along with supply chain disruptions have pushed high energy prices into broader economic sectors. Schnabel pointed out that inflation in the Eurozone has risen to 3%, with further upward risks still present. There are concerns within the ECB that high energy costs are driving up prices for goods and services through 'second-round effects,' creating more persistent inflationary pressures. She emphasized that the ECB's previous baseline forecast included two rate hikes, and a single action may not be sufficient to achieve the inflation control target.

On May 26, Reuters reported that Isabel Schnabel, a member of the European Central Bank's Governing Council and a potential candidate for ECB President, stated that even if the U.S. and Iran achieve results in peace negotiations, the ECB should still initiate a rate hike in June. She believes that the current energy shock has lasted far longer than expected, with damage to energy infrastructure and supply chain disruptions driving high energy prices into broader economic sectors. Schnabel pointed out that inflation in the eurozone has risen to 3%, with further upward risks still present. There are concerns within the ECB that high energy costs are pushing up the prices of goods and services through 'second-round effects,' creating more persistent inflationary pressures. She emphasized that the ECB's previous baseline forecast included two rate hikes, and a single action may not be sufficient to achieve the inflation control target. The market has largely priced in expectations for two future increases in the ECB deposit rate, with a roughly 50% probability of a third hike occurring within the next year. However, the ECB will not commit to a predetermined path and will continue to adjust its policy dynamically based on data from each meeting. At the same time, Schnabel warned that persistently high energy prices could lead to weaker-than-expected economic growth in the eurozone, creating pressures of simultaneous slowing growth and rising inflation.
