ECB Market Take: ZigzaghiNordea
On an average day for an average central banker this was dovish, but given Draghi’s November speeches, less so than many hoped. Immediate market reactions are in agreement. The euro strengthens and rates tick up both near the front and in the “QE-zone” around 10Y. QE still seems close to inevitable and will likely arrive in Q1 2015.

ECB to buy everything but gold?Nordea
The ECB refrained from new measures at this point, but Draghi prepared further the ground for more stimulus early next year. Risks to our call for sovereign bond purchases in March are now clearly towards earlier action. Core yields could rebound a bit higher in the near-term, but new lows still lie ahead. The euro will feel more pressure.

Daily MacroWSJ
Although the likelihood is that no formal action will be taken at the conclusion of its governing council’s meeting, President Mario Draghi will have an opportunity again to lay out a path toward further monetary easing in his press conference. Signals from the central bank suggest its governing council is getting close to adopting outright purchases of government bonds–quantitative easing–notwithstanding German resistance.

Longer German yields edge further up – US yields retreat a bit. Core yields with some more near-term upside left. EUR/USD at fresh 2-year lows. S&P 500 in record-breaking mode again. US economy maintaining momentum. ECB needs to deliver, but not ready for government bond purchases yet. Spanish and French auctions ahead.
