Against the backdrop of current volatility in the global energy market, Brent crude oil prices surged strongly during intraday trading, breaking above the $96 per barrel mark, with a single-day gain of 1.60%. At the same time, Deutsche Bank released its latest report on the European Central Bank’s interest rate decision, which is set to be announced on September 10, and predicted that the ECB may raise rates by 25 basis points in both September and December, lifting its terminal rate expectation from the original 2.5% to 2.75%.
From the perspective of macro technicals and liquidity logic, the short-term spike in oil prices is mainly driven by geopolitical risks, but this does not mean that long-term inflation is out of control. Deutsche Bank’s analysis also emphasizes that the labor market in the eurozone remains weak, with no broad wage-price spiral emerging, so there is insufficient basis for the terminal rate to break above 3%. This means that supply-driven price fluctuations may be a pulse-like move; the central bank’s room for tightening is already very limited, and the rate-hiking cycle is effectively in the process of peaking.
In traditional financial markets, stronger oil prices and slightly adjusted rate-hike expectations will push up government bond yields and suppress risk appetite in the short term, but full market pricing of the terminal rate instead removes a major source of uncertainty. Once oil prices pull back from their highs or inflationary pressure eases, bond yields topping out and then falling will quickly loosen liquidity, driving risk assets into a rebound pattern where bad news has been fully priced in.
For the crypto market, the final stage of macro tightening is often a good opportunity to build a bottom. As the ECB rate-hike expectations are finally realized, the marginal effect of liquidity tightening is fading significantly, and funds may flow back into high-beta digital assets after the negative news has been absorbed. $BTC has shown strong resilience, and short-term macro disturbances are unlikely to change the optimistic outlook for the long-term liquidity inflection point. 📈
