The Macro Trader’s view:
It now looks clear to all that the hoped for bottom in the Euro zone recession remains some way off.
The ECB continues to believe pumping massive amounts of liquidity into the Banking system is the
way forward. While it keeps afloat a Banking system burdened by around E282B of toxic assets, it
doesn’t help the wider economy.
The Banks balance sheets need to be cleaned up and the ECB needs to get money out into the
economy, beyond the Banking system.
But they are hampered by the very nature of the Euro zones decision making processes; monetary
policy is centralised, but nothing else is; political authority is in the hands of national governments, so
too is fiscal power, so who’s bonds should the ECB buy, could they buy bonds across the entire Euro
zone weighted by the relevance of the issuing economy, or would governments such as Germany or
France object to having their debt markets interfered with. We judge if they bought in the secondary
market it doesn’t matter.
Whatever the answer the current policy isn’t working and if waiting for the US, UK and China to start
growing is their policy, it will mean another one or two years of economic stagnation. And with interest
rates seemingly on hold, the Bund should rally further.
