Yesterday's Recap
Turkey reported July inflation at 1.78% month-over-month versus 1.83% consensus and 31.75% year-over-year versus 31.8% expected, marking a modest downside surprise. The preliminary trade balance improved to -7.4 billion USD from -10.37 billion previously. BIST 100 closed up 0.11% at 13,703.10 while USD/TRY rose 0.04% to 47.59.
In Poland, iShares Poland fell 0.88% to 43.68 and EUR/PLN edged up 0.13% to 4.30. Hungary’s 10Y government yield dropped 6.90% to 5.26% and Poland’s equivalent yield declined 4.01% to 5.51%. EUR/HUF rose 0.59% to 362.21 while EUR/CZK gained 0.07% to 24.19.
Brent crude added 0.15% to 79.57 amid stable regional energy prices. Gold rose 1.69% to 4,317.40 and Bitcoin gained 1.04% to 64,725.24, reflecting broader risk-on sentiment that supported select CEE assets despite mixed equity performance.
The Day Ahead
No major data releases are scheduled across Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania or Turkey. Markets will likely focus on follow-through from Turkey’s inflation print and any commentary from regional central bankers. Poland’s 10Y bond auction later in the week may draw attention given the sharp yield compression seen yesterday.
Currency pairs EUR/PLN, EUR/HUF and EUR/CZK remain sensitive to ECB signals and global risk sentiment. Investors will monitor any updates on EU fund disbursements to Poland and Hungary amid ongoing rule-of-law reviews. Thin calendars leave room for external drivers such as euro-area data or geopolitical headlines to influence flows.
Other Economic Notes
Czech policymakers highlighted persistent services price pressures even as headline inflation slowed more than expected last month. Regional equity markets showed limited reaction to the mixed Turkish data, with attention shifting toward external drivers. Energy import dependence continues to weigh on current-account balances across the five economies, particularly amid low Rhine and Danube water levels that constrain inland transport.
EU convergence reports continue to flag Romania’s euro-adoption timeline slipping further while Poland’s judicial reforms unlocked additional RRF funds. Drought effects on river navigation are raising logistics costs for industrial sectors and adding to imported inflation risks for net-energy importers.
