欧洲央行的季度预测是一个区间范围，其最新修正值与9月预测相比有大幅调整。新区间中值表明2023年欧元区GDP收缩0.3%，而此前的预测是增长0.5%。
The gloomy ECB forecasts followed Wednesday’s cut of UK growth prospects. Taken toget-her with a lack of unanimity among the 22 governing council members on the wisdom of holding rates steady, analysts said a cut early next year was likely.

Mr Draghi said the ECB had not cut interest rates because the outlook for inflation was broadly unchanged, monetary policy was already “very accommodative and markets had stabilised. The bank’s principal mandate is to target inflation of close to, but less than, 2 per cent over the medium term. It cut inflation predictions to 1.6 per cent next year and 1.4 per cent for 2023.
德拉吉表示，欧洲央行之所以没有降息，是因为通胀前景基本没有改变，货币政策已经“非常宽松，同时市场企稳。欧洲央行的主要使命是保持中期通胀率接近但不高于2%。欧洲央行将明年和2023年的通胀预期分别下调至1.6%和1.4%。
