ECB reiterates easier policy measures, EUR waits for Draghi
The ECB has done nothing to change the outlook for monetary policy. It’s decision to hold rates steady has been met with a shrug of shoulders by the euro. The only thing of note in the history books from the October 2019 meeting will be a meeting remembered for one thing: the end of Mario Draghi’s tenure as ECB President.
ECB statement
The statement of monetary policy could not have been more bland today:
Draghi’s final press conference
There was little to really impact on markets in the press conference, however, Draghi really did use his last opportunity to push for more fiscal support from governments in order to improve euro-area productivity. “implementation needs to be stepped up substantially. We see this as euro positive and a mantle that Christine Lagarde will take into her tenure..
Market Reaction
There has been almost nothing on euro until Draghi mentioned fiascal support. However, there is nothing to really sustain a move higher .
This has been a very forgettable policy meeting for the ECB (aside from the celebration of Mario Draghi that is).
