“The date for a first rate cut is starting to become more clearly visible” and “the arguments in favor of a cut are strengthening.”
We can read this in the minutes of the ECB Governing Council of 6-7 March, which however adds that on that date the governors had "consensus that it would be premature to discuss a rate cut on this occasion".
In fact, "patience and caution are still needed" regarding the decline in inflation.
