币界网报道：According to a report by Bijie.com, Ronald Temple, chief market strategist at Lazard Asset Management, said that the continued decline in inflation in the eurozone, coupled with the consistently dovish rhetoric of ECB officials, made a rate cut on Thursday almost a foregone conclusion. The ECB had previously defined the interest rate range of 1.75%-2.25% as a neutral monetary policy level. "Any signal of a change in this view would be surprising. Given the more aggressive trade stance taken by the United States against the European Union, interest rates are still expected to fall to 1.5% by the end of the year." According to LSEG data, the money market expects interest rates to be around 1.70% by the end of the year, slightly higher than strategists' forecasts.
