Italy's 10-year bond yield has decreased slightly to approximately 3.596%, mirroring the trend observed among other European nations. This adjustment follows remarks made by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole, where he indicated that rate cuts might be on the horizon. Powell highlighted that economic growth has slowed and the labor market is not as robust as previously assessed, although inflationary pressures continue largely due to tariff influences. The European Central Bank concluded its series of rate cuts in July after implementing eight consecutive reductions. However, market sentiment reflects a 45% likelihood of an additional cut within the year, though a pause is anticipated for September. Meanwhile, the Eurozone is showing preliminary signs of economic recovery, including a composite PMI surge to a 15-month high of 51.1 and the first instance of manufacturing growth since June 2022.
