ECB holds deposit rate at 2.50% as energy risks deepen
The ECB kept its three key interest rates unchanged on October 29, leaving the deposit rate at 2.50%. It warned that a larger, longer energy shock is likely to raise inflation and weaken growth. Underlying inflation has remained broadly stable and wages have yet to show a material response, while tighter financing conditions could weigh on both inflation and activity. The Governing Council retained its meeting-by-meeting approach and made no commitment to a future rate path.

UK factory output accelerates, but costs stall hiring
Britain’s manufacturing PMI rose to 52.8 in October from 51.9, Reuters reports, confirming the flash estimate. The output index reached 53.6, its highest since September 2024, as domestic and overseas demand improved. The recovery has a cost: input prices rose at their fastest pace since June, and employment growth stopped. The survey predates the budget, so it does not measure businesses’ response to the new fiscal measures.

Euro-area GDP grew 0.4% in the third quarter, above the 0.2% forecast but slower than the previous quarter’s 0.6%, InvestingLive reports. The expansion was uneven: Germany grew 0.2%, Italy stalled and France contracted 0.1%. Ireland’s 5.5% surge was driven by multinational-dominated industries. Justin Low cautions that the headline surprise masks a fragile growth picture as higher energy costs pressure the region.
