The ECB is forced to comply with markets expectations at todays ECB meeting.

* The ECB is cornered - again.
Stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Upbeat ECB forecasts for the Eurozone to be expected for today. Simoultaneously the ECB is mulling whether to buy PIIGS bonds again. The Eurozone Emergencyfund is also out declaring an 8BN Usd bond issue for this SPV(Special Purpose Vehicle), a classic vehicle from the the financialcrisis, by the way. Evidently, Asian Central banks seems to have a vested interest in ensuring its success.

This all boils down to a a correction in the market, in my book.
Eur/Usd has fallen 12 cents in 3 weeks, so a correction towards the mid 1.3350 should be in order, it could even stretch above that. Anyway, Im viewing this from a xmas perspective and I am not expecting these festivities to last beyond xmas.

I believe markets are currently ignoring Chinas liquidity depleting measures. I am not. I am hearing the Chinese loud and clear. The Chinese liquidity generator is gearing down. Deleverage.
Get ready for higher rates and stagflation.

If this is the case. This xmas rally should be treasured.


*Positions and positionchanges
Ive bought Eur/Usd for a move towards 1.3350. Trusting ECB to oblige market expectations today.


As usual, good luck
