ECB Keeps Rates Steady as Uncertainty and a Stronger Euro Loom Over Policy

TL;DR Summary
The ECB left its key rate at 2% for the fifth straight meeting, saying inflation should stabilise toward the 2% target despite uncertain global conditions. Economists stress the move isn’t a non-event, noting that a stronger euro and disinflation pressures could influence policy, with most projections signaling a hold through 2026 and potential hikes only later if growth or inflation dynamics shift.
