Melanie Debono (Senior Eurozone Economist)

27 November 2024 Eurozone Monitor How could the EU retaliate against tariffs from the US?

  • The EU would target manufactured goods such as machinery or aircraft if it retaliates with higher tariffs. 
  • In that case, Germany would be among the EZ economies facing higher inflation pressure… 
  • ...EZ imports likely would decline, lifting GDP growth, but the boost would be marginal overall.

15 November 2024 Eurozone Monitor GDP and employment data imply little need for faster ECB cuts

  • EZ GDP and employment beat forecasts in Q3; we expect both to ease in Q4…
  • ...But neither will slow enough to convince the ECB to ramp up the pace of easing. 
  • EZ industry remains in a rut and will again be a drag on growth in Q4, even if US firms front-load orders.

14 November 2024 Eurozone Monitor Is EZ food inflation becoming entrenched? It looks like it

  • EZ food inflation has been edging up in recent months, mostly due to base effects. 
  • Factory-gate prices suggest it will continue to rise though; the 2022-to-23 shock will persist in the data.
  • Higher food inflation will keep the headline elevated, supporting our call for higher ECB rates for longer.

6 November 2024 Eurozone Monitor Further floods risk a bigger slowdown in Spanish growth in Q4

  • Floods mean the risk to our call for Spanish GDP to ease slightly in Q4, to 0.6%, is for a bigger slowdown. 
  • It would take a significant hit to GDP for Spain to underperform the rest of the big four though. 
  • French industry rose over Q3, despite the fall in September; it is unlikely to increase again in Q4.
