The ECB is likely to hike rates unless the outlook improves significantly, as stated by Nagel. A rate hike in June is anticipated unless the war ends and oil prices drop. The market estimates a 72% chance of a rate hike at the next meeting, influenced by ongoing US-Iran tensions and the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, which is crucial for the global economy.
