Market Soars After Draghi Corrects His "Error"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Following yesterday's crash in the DAX, and historic surge in the Euro after an ECB announcement which many suggested was another central bank policy error, moments ago Mario Draghi did everything in his power to reverse said error, when in a speech in New York which concluded moments ago followed by a Q&A session, he effectively tripled down on his "whatever it takes" position (remember his double down took place in Malta at the end of October) and said that not only is "QE there to stay", but could be "calibrated" if needed and the ECB can use "further tools" if needed as there is "no limit" to the "size of the ECB's balance sheet."

  • DRAGHI SEES NO SPECIFIC LIMIT TO ECB BALANCE-SHEET SIZE
  • DRAGHI: CAN'T BE LIMIT TO HOW FAR ECB USES TOOLS WITHIN MANDATE
  • DRAGHI: CHANGES TO QE PROGRAM ADD EU680B IN LIQUIDITY BY 2019
  • ECB'S DRAGHI Q&A: ON MKT REACTION, PKGE PROPOSALS PUT FWD,APPROVED
  • ECB DRAGHI: QE THERE TO STAY; IF NEEDED COULD BE RECALIBRATED
  • ECB'S DRAGHI: CAN USE FURTHER TOOLS IF NEEDED TO MEET INFLA TARGET
  • ECB'S DRAGHI: NOT REVOLUTION BUT RECALIBRATION;WAS RIGHT PKGE
  • ECB'S DRAGHI: EURO FX NOT POLICY TARGET; AS VEHICLE IS IMPORNT

So he was only joking the last time he warned the market he would go full mad dove, but this time he is serious?

Rhetorical questions aside, he made it very clear that yesterday's ECB announcement was not meant to address market expectations:

  • ECB DRAGHI: NOT PKGE TO ADDRESS MKT EXPECTATIONS

No: addressing market expectations is what today's speech was for, and as one can see, while it had a very modest impact on the EUR (for the reasons laid out yesterday), which is supposedly what this is all about, it has sent the S&P soaring as market expectations of a European central bank that will do anything to support markets have been reset.

It looks like this market wants to crash badly and there's a concerted effort between Asia, Americas and Europe to do whatever it takes to stop that.

If I went on the TV and told people that the brightly coloured pieces of paper in my pocket - that only I had the lawful right to knock up in my garage - had real value and that I was going to restrict or expand their production, would this give me special status and have people hanging onto my every word (rhetorical question).

They are about transferring money from the taxpayers to the global cabal of Jewish moneychangers. They have made it clear the punch bowl will be pulled away if any said moneychanger actually gives a raise to anyone who works for hm. They've been very clear and the moneychangers have obliged.

remarkable how the fucking ''market'' recovers all losses from yesterday and then adds some gains.

 

who could have seen this shit coming.

 

all i want is for this fucking farce to fucking collapse while hussein is still in office. i dont want him getting away unscathed.

 

draghi needs to fucking be silenced once and for all

The Feral Reserve is desperate to keep it from collapsing while Hussein is in office.  They'll do any quick-fix, can-kicking trick and don't give a damn what happens the day after he is gone from DC.  Can't have it collapsing on his watch.

Chastinng someone in a real market is justified. Chasting someone who didnt get the insider knowlege that the CBs run a hedge fund is nowhere i would go. Maybe im nieve had i thought one of the goals of the 2008 "crisis" was to totally disable free markets id still think , impossible. But so was ramming 2 planes in some skyscrapers to kill your own citizens for your personal agenda so i guess i should have gotten it since both parties are the same

Yup. Everytime you think youve seen the limit on the the unthinkable and maddening. You get another notch. It just never ends Whats the worst is not only is this propped controled on debt, and not only is it manipulated but its obvious the CB s are actively managing a giant hedge fund were they control Everything. From actively setting up traps and using CNBS as their conduit, this is dispicable beyond anyones comprehension.

So if everything is as it was two days ago, i.e. Fed rate hike expectation strong, Draghi additional QE expectation strong, S&P back up to where it was, why is EUR/USD not also back to where it was?

So many ways to keep the bubble floating, so many, many more than we have to prepare for the pop.  Not until they want it to drop, it will not.

The trend is your friend, don't fight it.

We all know it will crash, but just not today...

Is it Draghi or is it Euronext close which triggered the parabolic 'recovery'?

This phenomenon occurs more often than any ECB or FOMC-member inducted dump/rallye.
