EUROPE
Two Months to Europe's Suicideeuinside
Up until a year ago it was taboo to even think it was possible that a country should leave the euro area, while in the last week alone so much was said about a possible death of the European Union that there is even an exact date set. The Union has two more months to live.

EUR rates: No limits to negative rates?Nordea
Draghi’s signals yesterday confirm that more easing will be in store, which should ensure short rates will fall even deeper into negative territory and stay there for a long time. We see less downside potential in longer yields, but expect also long yields to stay at even more depressed levels throughout our forecast horizon, with only a minor rise towards the end of 2017.

Markets out of sync with the US economyNordea
Recent market developments are difficult to reconcile with the fact that the fundamentals of the US economy remain solid. The message from our favourite leading indicators is that there is virtually no chance of a recession in 2016. However, acknowledging that economic downturns are notoriously hard to predict, we highlight in this note what we would need to see in terms of data to change our call and predict a US recession.

Major stock markets as well as the oil price bounced back after the ECB's press conference yesterday. However crude oil which is now the key driver behind equity and credit markers is still priced at only about $30/barrel and the near-term fundamentals behind WTI remain terrible.

FX UpdateTF
We are seeing a wobbly attempt at a comeback in risk appetite after a very dovish ECB performance yesterday and fresh noise on BoJ easing potential overnight but so far the bounce has underwhelmed and there is a lot more wood to chop before we can call this a full comeback in risk sentiment.

From the FloorTF
Yesterday's European Central bank meeting has lit a fire under global sentiment with traders expecting new stimulus measures to prop up a very soft year (so far) in risky assets.
