Nomura's Ticehurst on ECB, Central Bank Policy & Forex

The video discusses the European Central Bank's (ECB) strategy to catch up with rate hikes, starting with a 25 basis point increase and potentially moving to 50 if inflation persists. It compares this approach to other central banks like the Fed and Bank of England. The discussion then shifts to bond yields, particularly the US 10-year yield, and the impact of central bank policies on market sentiment. The video also covers the strength of the USD, influenced by strong domestic demand in the US and global factors like the war in Ukraine and China's economic situation. Finally, it examines the Australian dollar, highlighting its strong domestic fundamentals but vulnerability as a risk proxy in global markets.
