On September 1st, UBS analysts predicted that the European Central Banks interest rate-cutting cycle may be over, predicting the deposit rate will remain unchanged at 2% at its September policy meeting. While we expect the Eurozone economy to stagnate in the second half of 2025 due to US tariffs, and inflation to remain flat or below the 2% target for several quarters, the ECB is not expected to cut rates further. This assessment is primarily based on the EUs massive fiscal stimulus: on the one hand, the EU is increasing defense spending; on the other, Germany is increasing infrastructure investment. Analysts believe these measures will gradually take effect starting in early 2026, providing support to the economy.NIO (09866.HK): 166,472 vehicles delivered this year, a year-on-year increase of 30.0%NIO (09866.HK): The company delivered 31,305 vehicles in August 2025, a year-on-year increase of 55.2%.The eurozone unemployment rate was 6.2% in July, in line with expectations and the previous value of 6.20%.On September 1st, Li Xiang, CEO of Ideal Auto (02015.HK), stated on social media, "2025 is the first year that Ideal Auto officially enters the pure electric SUV market.
