@MartinSEssex And why is the Euro feasting on this?

$EURUSD up after #ECB leaves rates unchanged

#ECB decided on monthly net purchases of €40bn in Q2 and €30 billion in Q3 under the APP. From Oct 2022 it will maintain net asset purchases under the APP at €20bn per month for as long as necessary. It expects net purchases to end shortly before it starts raising rates

#ECB will discontinue net asset purchases under the PEPP at the end of March 2022

#ECB judges that the progress on economic recovery and towards its medium-term inflation target permits a step-by-step reduction in the pace of its asset purchases over the coming quarters

#ECB leaves interest rates unchanged, as expected

It would be quite hard for the BoE to justify increasing UK interest rates just as the Government is introducing new measures to fight the Omicron variant

James Stanley @JStanleyFX

@JohnKicklighter right, rates markets saying BoE hike and GBP says 'nope'
