Currency Reports

May Currency Report

15.06.2006.

Currency Report provided by HIFX Plc

The ECB raised interest rates by 0.25% to 2.75% when they met earlier this month despite speculation in the market of a 0.50% hike. In the accompanying statement, Trichet indicated that rates were still below ‘normal’ levels although stated that the bank were not in a position where rates needed to be raised quickly. He stated that there is no pre-determined path of ECB rate changes thus giving no clues as to when the next hike is likely to come.

In May, inflation estimates came out at 2.5%, significantly higher than the ECB’s 2.00% target level. Risks to inflation remain to the upside although this is heavily dependent upon oil prices. Whilst this is the case, the inflation/growth trade off could present something of a policy dilemma for the ECB as they are unlikely to want to be seen to be raising interest rates if growth is slowing.

In the UK, the Bank of England unsurprisingly left interest rates on hold at 4.50% as risks to growth and inflation remain finely in the balance. The past two months have seen interest rate sentiment in the UK switch from the possibility of a rate cut to expectations that the next move from the MPC will be upward. Further weight was added to the argument this week when CPI (Consumer Price Index – a measure of inflation) came out at 2.2%y/y significantly above the Bank of England’s 2.0% target.

Expectations of higher interest rates in the EU have resulted in the Euro strengthening against Sterling and GBPEUR trading down from 1.4805 (17/05/06) to 1.4470 (08/06/06). Sterling has since recovered to 1.4650 (14/06/06) leaving GBPEUR in a sideways trading pattern once again.
