XM Group reported on April 28 that the ECB kept rates unchanged in its March decision but adopted a more hawkish tone due to Middle East war risks. Euro-area headline inflation rose to 2.6% in March from 1.9% in February, and April's composite PMI showed business activity contracting for the first time since December 2024.
Markets were pricing higher odds of a June hike.
Expectations of a hawkish ECB support the euro and can lift the currency value of European feed purchases from dollar-priced markets. Weaker European business activity could reduce demand for animal products and feed.
