Probability

60%

The ECB raised the deposit rate by 25 bps to 2.25% on June 11, 2026 — a clear signal of persistently elevated inflation. The Eurostat Flash HICP for June 2026 was approx. 2.6% YoY. Eurozone wage growth remains elevated in 2026 (~+3.5% YoY, Eurostat Q1 2026) and energy prices volatile (Brent crude >USD 88/barrel per open predictions for end-July). A cooling below 2.3% by July appears unlikely in this environment. No Polymarket contract; calibrated from ECB communications and recent inflation data.
