Markets Shout, ‘The Germans Are Coming!’ To Our Bond-Buying Party, That Is
By Brendan Conway
That midafternoon spike in major stock indexes is one way of saying it: Jens Weidmann is about to get the hard sell.
The DJIA, S&P 500 and other indexes surged just as Bloomberg News reports that European Central Bank President Mario Draghi plans to talk with Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann “in the coming days.” This is part of the effort to convince the Germans to go along with new bond purchases. No story link yet.
Oh yes, the hopium is catching. The battered iShares MSCI Spain Index Fund (EWP) is now up 6.1% on the session. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is up 1.9%. The dollar falls 0.8% versus the euro.
What’s interesting is that the CBOE Volatility Index, which tends to fall when stocks surge, has actually pared its loss on the session to 1.9%. |
