Investors such as Pimco and Fidelity International believe that the economic outlook in Europe is bleak, which may force policymakers to cut interest rates by more than market expectations. The latest market pricing shows that the European Central Bank is expected to cut its key interest rate to 1.75% next year. The bank cut interest rates for the third time in a row on Thursday, to 3%. However, Fidelity said that the borrowing cost may be further reduced to 1.5%, and Pimco also believed that there was a risk of a larger interest rate cut. Further repricing may aggravate the rise of European bonds, which have outperformed the US and UK bond markets in 2024. A Bloomberg index, which tracks the return of euro bonds, has risen by more than 3% this year, while the corresponding indexes of US bonds and British bonds have risen by 2% and fallen by 2% respectively. "Market expectations are still more hawkish than we expected," said Salman Ahmed, global head of macro and strategic asset allocation at Fidelity. "If downside risks become a reality, then the European Central Bank may cut interest rates further."
