European Equities Close Higher As Traders Bank On Imminent ECB Rate Cut: What's Driving Markets Monday?
European equities ended Monday broadly positive, while the U.S. market was closed for the Memorial Day holiday.
欧洲股市周一收盘普遍乐观，而美国市场因阵亡将士纪念日假期休市。
Traders maintained an overall positive risk sentiment on European assets, driven by near-total certainty that the European Central Bank (ECB) will deliver a rate cut at its June meeting.
交易员对欧洲资产的总体风险情绪保持乐观，这得益于几乎完全确定欧洲央行（ECB）将在6月的会议上降息。
Three key ECB members — chief economist Philip Lane, Finland Central Bank governor Olli Rehn and France Central Bank governor François Villeroy de Galhau — made reassuring statements indicating a rate cut is imminent.
欧洲央行的三位主要成员——首席经济学家菲利普·莱恩、芬兰央行行长奥利·雷恩和法国央行行长弗朗索瓦·维勒罗伊·德加尔豪——发表了令人放心的声明，表明降息迫在眉睫。
- "A June rate cut is appropriate if the inflation outlook holds," Lane said.
- "Inflation is converging to our 2% target in a sustained way, making it the right time in June to ease the monetary policy stance and start cutting rates," Rehn said.
- "Barring a surprise, a June rate cut is a done deal," Villeroy said.
- 莱恩说：“如果通货膨胀前景不变，6月份的降息是适当的。”
- 雷恩说：“通货膨胀率正在持续接近我们的2％的目标，这使得6月份是放松货币政策立场和开始降息的合适时机。”
- 维勒罗伊说：“除非出人意料，否则6月份的降息已经完成。”
Traders now almost fully price in a June rate cut and expect a total of 65 basis points in cuts (more than two cuts but less than three) by the end of the year.
交易员现在几乎对6月份的降息进行了全面的定价，并预计到年底共将降息65个基点（超过两次降息但不到三次降息）。
