  • UPDATE 1-ECB can cut rates and should rethink how it sets policy, Wunsch says

    The European Central Bank can press ahead with interest rate cuts this year but needs to rethink how it forecasts inflation and sets policy based on these projections, Belgian policymaker Pierre Wunsch said on Wednesday. The ECB has all but promised a rate cut on June 6 but sent few signals about subsequent moves given high services inflation and worries that a delay in monetary policy easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve could also force it to take its time. Wunsch, Belgium's central bank governor, however, made the case for further moves, arguing that staying tight for too long was now a bigger risk than easing too early.

  • Are investors seeing a micro or macro driven market?

    Global markets seek stability from geopolitical tensions, particularly the conflicts in the Middle East, as Americans parse through the Federal Reserve's back-and-forth sentiment on interest rate cuts. With all these sorts of headwinds, investors try to figure out whether micro or macroeconomic factors are driving the current market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC). Morgan Stanley Global Head of Corporate Credit Research Andrew Sheets discusses the economic headlines driving markets, including the Fed's monetary policy. "All the focus is often on these big macro variables — when is the Fed going to make its first rate cut? Where are interest rates going, where is inflation headed? Some of these geopolitical concerns," Sheets explains. "But if that were the real driver, I think if it were these big picture issues that were driving the market, I think what you'd expect is a lot of different assets, a lot of different stocks, a lot of credits all moving together, all moving kind of to the same side of the ship at the same time. and that's simply not what we see."
