The latest market pricing shows that the European Central Bank is expected to cut its key interest rate to 1.75% next year. The bank cut interest rates for the third time in a row on Thursday, to 3%. However, Fidelity said that the borrowing cost may be further reduced to 1.5%, and Pimco also believed that there was a risk of a larger interest rate cut. Further repricing may aggravate the rise of European bonds, which have outperformed the US and UK bond markets in 2024. A Bloomberg index, which tracks the return of euro bonds, has risen by more than 3% this year, while the corresponding indexes of US bonds and British bonds have risen by 2% and fallen by 2% respectively. "Market expectations are still more hawkish than we expected," said Salman Ahmed, global head of macro and strategic asset allocation at Fidelity. "If downside risks become a reality, then the European Central Bank may cut interest rates further."
