The ECB will likely raise its inflation forecasts and lower growth projections in June as conflict in the Middle East pressures energy markets. Chief Economist Philip Lane told Japan's Nikkei newspaper that oil prices are expected to remain elevated longer than the ECB's March assumptions. Investors face a higher-for-longer inflation path that could delay anticipated interest rate cuts across the Eurozone.
