Key Quotes
“Swedish July CPIF inflation was way above the market’s and in particular our expectations”.
“Air fares surprised substantially on the upside and the headline number was a significant positive surprise, not least for the Riksbank”.
“We expect the Riksbank to stay sidelined in September. This should provide room for EUR/SEK to stabilise in a 9.30- 9.60 range over the coming weeks”.
“With EUR/SEK currently in the middle of the range, we see limited opportunity to position in either direction and prefer to stay sidelined currently”.
