The European Central Bank (ECB) kept interest rates unchanged on Thursday as inflation concerns weighed on the decision. Markets fully price in at least two rate hikes by year-end, with money markets currently seeing a third move as likely but not certain, and Germany 2-year yields falling 6 bps to 2.65%. Investors are now shifting focus to a potential June liftoff to combat stagflationary pressures across the eurozone.
