Context
The ECB's Wage Tracker indicates a downward revision in wage growth expectations for 2026, dropping from 2.388% to 2.270%. This shift may signal softer wage pressures, which could align with a more dovish stance on monetary policy and influence the central bank's decision-making regarding interest rates, potentially impacting both the EUR and fixed-income markets.
