Here’s yesterday’s Talouselämä article, which is not behind a paywall:
“Views expecting clear tightening measures from the ECB are rare. For example, Danske Bank’s chief economist Pasi Kuoppamäki believes that the ECB should not curb aggregate demand, because recovery in the euro area has been slower and tightening labor markets are yet to be seen.”
Here’s the same thing I posted in the Coffee Room, but it might be good to post it here too before The Event starts at 2:45 PM:
- You can follow the event in this thread and, if necessary, post relevant information about it.

- Daily market movements and corrections (Bear Den & Bullfighting Arena) and here you can wonder about, for example, the wild index movements that may occur during and around this event.

- Stock price and change inquiries, exclamations of horror and excitement - thread and here you can cheer about the movements of some stocks, etc.
- In the Coffee Room, “lighter writings” might also activate around this event, which might not be suitable here.

So, at 2:45 PM, Marianne will be here commenting on the ECB’s interest rate decision, and she already published her morning article here earlier, which is worth reading before this event. ![]()
Welcome to follow along!
