ECB's de Guindos: Inflation news is positive

  • Comments from the ECB Vice President, Luis de Guindos
ECB
  • Marginally more optimistic on growth
  • Much more optimistic on services inflation
  • Evolution of wages fully alignes with projections
  • Level of uncertainty is huge
  • Our intention is to give a gently growing dividendm we will say more in February
  • Comfortable with current level of interest rates
  • We believe that undershooting will be temporary
  • Convergence to 2% is now the baseline
  • No discussion on modifying QT

Same old comments here. The ECB is more than fine with the current policy setting and won't move on small or short-term deviations from their 2% target. I'm not sure why they even worry about an undershooting with the recent economic data.
