As energy prices surge, markets are preparing for tighter monetary policy from global central banks. While the ECB, Federal Reserve, and Bank of England are widely expected to hold interest rates steady this week, investors are closely monitoring for signals on how policymakers will respond to the economic impact of the escalating conflict.

Italy’s BTP Yield Eases
Italy’s 10-year BTP yield dipped toward 3.6%, remaining below last week’s 11-month peak of 3.81%, as investors remained cautious ahead of a batch of central bank decisions, while rising oil prices, driven by the escalating US-Israeli conflict with Iran, continue to heighten inflation worries. Markets are now pricing in a tighter monetary policy from the European Central Bank by year-end, with a July rate hike fully expected and an 85% chance of a second increase by December. This week, the ECB, Federal Reserve, and Bank of England are all anticipated to keep rates unchanged, with investors scrutinizing any hints on how policymakers will address the economic fallout from the conflict. On the data front, Italy’s EU-harmonized inflation rate was revised down to 1.5% in February from a preliminary 1.6%, remaining below the ECB’s 2% target.
