• Average wage growth has continued to moderate. Wage growth in services has slowed down from 4.7% the prior month to 4.2% y/y, which should please the BoE and validates a next rate cut.
• Across sectors, wage growth was firmer in manufacturing (4.4% y/y after 4.1% y/y) and in retail-hotels up by 5.5% y/y after 5.4% y/y.

Eurozone: Industrial production (Dec.): -1.4% m/m vs -1.5% expected (prior: 0.3% revised from 0.7%)

US: CPI (Jan.): 0.2% m/m vs 0.3% expected (prior: 0.3%)

• CPI y/y: 2.4% vs 2.5% expected (prior: 2.7%)
• Core CPI: 2.5% as expected (prior: 2.6%)
• The 1.5% m/m decline in energy costs (-0.1% y/y) contributed to the slowdown in headline inflation to the weakest level since last May (2.4%). Gasoline price is down -7.5% y/y but electricity prices are up 6.3%.
• Core inflation fell to the lowest level since 2021, but services prices excluding energy (like airfares and auto rentals) rose 0.4% m/m despite only a 0.2% gain in owners' equivalent rent, which is notably lower than what have been seen for most of the past several years.
• This release adds to evidence that firms are still absorbing a large part of the tariff costs and slightly raises odds that the Fed will implement three rate cuts this year.

Switzerland: CPI (Jan.): -0.1% m/m vs 0.0% expected (prior: 0.0%)

• CPI y/y: 0.1% as expected (prior: 0.1%)
• Core CPI y/y: 0.5% as expected (prior: 0.5%)
• Both headline and core inflation remained unchanged in January.
• Energy inflation rose 1pp to -4.3% y/y, driven by base effects and food and goods inflation rose by 0.4pp to -0.4% y/y and -1.3% y/y, respectively. However, this was offset by a 0.3pp decline in services inflation to 0.9%.
• Imported inflation rose slightly by 0.1pp to -1.5%, but given the recent strengthening of the CHF, the risk to inflation appears clearly to the downside in the coming months.
• Despite the strong CHF, we expect the SNB to keep its deposit rate unchanged at 0.0% this year.
