Lagarde says measured ECB rate hikes remain appropriate

Original: Measured ECB hikes to quell inflation remain appropriate, Lagarde says

The comments signal the ECB intends to keep tightening policy in measured steps as it battles persistent eurozone price pressures, and traders are watching for further guidance on the pace of future increases.
