The ECB survey showed euro zone consumers lowered three-year inflation expectations to 2.9% in April, easing fears of unanchored price bets. This decline from 3.0% occurred despite current inflation hitting 3% on higher oil prices. Stable expectations reduce pressure on policymakers for aggressive tightening beyond the telegraphed June rate hike.
