Core conclusion · Tlines extraction
US producer inflation accelerated to 5.4% YoY in August and energy prices jumped, with Brent up over 6% near USD108 on Strait of Hormuz tensions. Markets price a roughly 70% probability of a 25bp Fed hike at the 15-16 September meeting. The ECB raised its three key rates by 25bp, taking the deposit rate to 2.50%. Attention now turns to August US CPI, with headline expected at 3.4% YoY and core at 2.4%.

Key arguments
- Renewed energy price surge and firm labour data (jobless claims 206k) make CPI the key input before the 15-16 September Fed meeting.
- The ECB raised all three key policy rates by 25bp to a 2.50% deposit rate and revised 2027-2028 inflation forecasts higher.
- Stress is visible across markets: 2Y UST yield jumped 15.61bp, silver fell 5.5%, copper 3.6%, gold 1.8%, while Brent and WTI gained over 6%.
- US-Iran escalation after attacks near the Strait of Hormuz compounds regional shipping and energy supply concerns.
Key numbers

- 5.4% (prior 4.8%)
- Brent crude
- USD107.63/bbl (+6.3%)

- ~70.8%
- ECB deposit rate

Main risks
- A higher-than-expected CPI print could pull September hike odds closer to fully priced and push yields higher.
- Oil at post-May highs on Middle East escalation could stoke broader inflation and weigh on growth-sensitive assets.
- Higher-for-longer rate expectations pressure gold, silver and copper, and risk widening credit spreads.
