U.S consumer sentiment slipped in early July but remained nearly equal to the average in the prior twelve months

Consumer sentiment slipped in early July but remained nearly equal to the average in the prior twelve months (97.7) and since the start of 2017 (97.4). The continuing strength has been due to favorable job and income prospects, with consumers under age 45 anticipating the largest income gains since July 2000. So far, the strength in jobs and incomes has overcome higher inflation and interest rates.

The darkening cloud on the horizon, however, is due to rising concerns about the potential negative impact of tariffs on the domestic economy. Negative concerns about the impact of tariffs have recently accelerated, rising from 15% in May, to 21% in June, and 38% in July.

BNP Paribas expects the European Central Bank to start raising the deposit rate in September 2019

BNP Paribas expects the European Central Bank to start raising the deposit rate in September 2019. Luigi Speranza, head of European economics at BNP Paribas, says that formally the ECB's forward guidance on rate is only an expectation and not a commitment. In practice, however, BNP Paribas finds that it would be "extremely costly" for the ECB to surprise the markets with an earlier move. The ECB's meeting on July 25, 2019 would be a bit of a stretch as it falls in the middle of the summer and it's not a month for ECB staff forecasts either. BNP Paribas expects the deposit rate, currently at minus 0.40%, to end 2019 at minus 0.20% - Via WSJ.
