ECB Keeps Rates Unchanged
As was largely expected by the sell-side, the ECB kas kept all three key rates unchanged, just like the BOE 45 minutes earlier. From the ECB:
At today’s meeting the Governing Council of the ECB decided that the interest rate on the main refinancing operations and the interest rates on the marginal lending facility and the deposit facility will remain unchanged at 0.75%, 1.50% and 0.00% respectively.
The President of the ECB will comment on the considerations underlying these decisions at a press conference starting at 2.30 p.m. CET today.
It is expected that Draghi will tone down his expectations at the press conference in 45 minutes, although what actual steps he will take as opposed to just talking even more, is unclear. As for JPM, which was alone among those calling for a rate cut, it will promptly pull reality's margin and bankrupt the real world, leading to a new, better one, in which JPM is the only surviving entity, allowing the bank to buy and sell any assets it wishes to/from itself, in the process sending the DJIA to that much desired 100,000E10, even as gas/oil prices tumble to negative.

The more things change the more they stay the same?
It's all Bullshit until Ben stops printing!!!
The six great stars of Astrology are all aligned in one great triangle. It's the year of the Snake. It's the Age of Acquarius. Black clouds are seen far to the West. The people are nervous. The Emperor remains in his Palace, but can decide nothing. The Center cannot hold.
Not committing suicide today......maybe tomorrow.
Sooner or later we will all end up in the "Morgue".

Perhaps next time, eh?
Ugly data out of Europe this morning. Speak, Draghi, SPEAK!
Things get too out of whack and balance will return. The farther JPM takes things the more likely statistics will catch up with them. But you'd a thought by now. Oh well maybe we'll get a copycat from yesterday's jump.
I can't see how the current financial system can last for longer than few weeks.
MAJIC! Woooshh
faith - you can't measure faith in days of weeks or years. even Judgment Day is predicted as "coming like a thief in the night", i.e. unexpected
so theologically speaking the more you expect the event to happen soon the more you are actually delaying it ;-)
Leverage, it's all about leverage.
Commodities and foods are not reaching the real economy.
Something will happen,very soon. I see empty food shelves in low end grocery stores here in.........Toronto.
perhaps walmart around the corner is just about to add a food section and the store owner is calling it quits if this
The secret to how it can last for much longer than a few weeks is that it is not a financial system; it is a faith based cult. Such Cults last until they run head on into "Reality". Reality always wins. Although you might not enjoy it.
"ECB Keeps Rates Unchanged"
Let me show you my shocked face...
Deposit rates are 0.00%? Such a deal, already! Can I get an account there?
