Deutsche Bank Says Eurozone Economic "Resilience" Keeps ECB in Pause Mode

10:11 AM EDT, 10/30/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The European Central Bank maintained its three key interest rates on Thursday as inflation in the eurozone hovers near its 2% medium-term target rate, with the outlook "broadly unchanged."

Despite the United States tariffs, despite all the various sources of uncertainty, the eurozone continues to eke out some growth, said Mark Wall, chief European economist at Deutsche Bank, after the ECB policy decision.

Economic "resilience" is keeping the ECB doves in check, and the policy pause on the rails, stated Walls.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
