What a week for the markets – just as we were waiting for things to ‘liven up’ ahead of the festive holidays. We started the week full of optimism ahead of the all-important European Central bank (ECB) policy update. Come crunch time, we saw one of the biggest blunders in editorial history (FT), an ECB interest rate cut which had mixed reactions and markets’ hopes of more QE completely crushed. But is it all doom & gloom, though? Absolutely not. Reality is, the UK Index has fallen just 200pts following the ECB announcement and we’ve seen these markets recover from worse after Parisian terrorism (300pts), threats of Greece leaving the Euro (400pts drop) & the thought of Ed Miliband becoming UK Prime minister (200pts drop) – and that’s just this year.
Is the general public really going to stop their Christmas shopping because the ECB hasn’t introduced more monetary policy stimulus? Who are the resilient retailers/supermarkets who manage to smash Christmas sales figures year-on-year, irrespective of what’s happening in the worldwide economy?
