The European Central Bank ’s resolve to uphold its inflation-quashing reputation risks luring it into a damaging error when it meets this week, economists warn. After holding off since the Iran war erupted, officials now look convinced that an interest-rate hike is needed to stop soaring energy prices igniting a broader inflation surge. Yet the case for caution remains strong, with the euro-zone economy wobbling and investors in danger of interpreting any move as the first in a series . That dilemma has some analysts arguing that the ECB can bide its time further to assess how persistent the shock will be, particularly as the US and Iran work toward a peace accord. They caution that a premature move could echo widely criticized rate increases 15 years ago that were later reversed as Europe’s debt crisis deepened. “The ECB seems hellbent to prove its credibility,” said TS Lombard’s Davide Oneglia . “The 2011 hikes were a clear policy mistake and repeating it is one of the highest risks we’re facing with the ECB so focused on inflation expectations and the scars left behind by the 2022 experience.” Policymakers from hawkish Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel to dovish Greek central-bank chief Yannis Stournaras suggest they can no longer “look through” the energy shock and must preserve trust in the ECB’s commitment to keep inflation at 2%. The latest reading for the 21-nation bloc already hit 3.2%, with further acceleration likely. Even stripping out energy and food costs, underlying pressures have shifted sharply higher. Firms’ plans for price increases, meanwhile, are elevated. Households’ views on where inflation will go from here are too. “The risk of de-anchoring inflation expectations is rising,” Schnabel cautioned last week. Not everyone’s so concerned. Some analysts say faster core inflation may be due to factors beyond energy pass-through. Others see little sign of undue upward forces on things like wages just yet. “When the ECB hikes before there’s firm ...
