I am flabbergasted that the ECB chose to keep rates at 2%. Are they out of their fucking minds? Those European cocksuckers have just sucked the life out of the market, crushing futures from +14 to +5. They are really mentally disturbed people. Don’t laugh! It’s fucking bizarre and completely delusional for the ECB to do nothing.
WOW.
Yes, I am looking for policy makers to boost stocks. In the event said policy makers fail to act, we’re going to 8,000 on the Dow, rather immediately.
Any questions?
The fucking Europeans in charge of the ECB are not men, but small babies with the brains of dogs.

no shit! it’s all on Ben now. Mother Fuckers.
Fucking Europeans.
If Ben is hampered by reelection pressures, this is going to get hairy.

IF he is under political pressure? The president’s re-election chances go down markedly if another round of easing is allowed to pollute an already toxic market. Main Street has no more patience for the pampered Wall Street geeks. QE3 is not coming.
The ECB is completely retarded.
Unchanged rate could also mean that they are ready to monetize the debts/use monetary stimulus and under that light the decision is totally reasonable.
All the interest rate cut would’ve done is to boost stock prices for a day. The underlying problems remain unchanged. Go ahead and ban me, but I believe you are just talking your book.

You would have thought that with the WSJ rumour of imminent QE ECB would have made at least a 25bps gesture, surpised, yes and no.
Clearly they checked to the Bernank. Which brings me to a paper he wrote regarding purchasing foreign sovereign bonds. Funny how he wrote that years back, and this week we get a call from the Eurpoeans for the Fed to support Europe.
Stay tuned.
A good % of Americans don’t want our gov’t to bail AMERICANS out. Bailing out Europe would be quite the trick
There’s a lot the Americans don’t like about the way things are run.
And do you hoestly think Bernanake gives a rats ass. It is within his options, along with outright asset purchases (read SP500), whihc may or may not argue is happening on the odd day.
I think with a Presidential election coming up, politics plays a heavy role as to what and when certain actions are taken.
The krauts are in control, they will do nothing until it’s too late.
Walker win is the most bullish thing stocks have going for them today.
The guy is as slimy as they come. On the other hand, it’s one more step towards ousting obama so I’ll take it.
You buy into the demo tar machine.
No, I grew up in Wisconsin and live in MN so I see and hear more than what is shown on TV.
That’s the problem w/ ‘merica, everybody thinks you have to be strictly right or strictly left.
But, but, but, what about the fears of inflation?!?
Lol. As clear as it may be to all of us, we still have to deal with the very real possibility of policy makers making egregious mistakes.
The problem is, we have a few Eurozone countries with high inflation and some with deflation. The common currency was a mistake from the start. Other than lowering rates, the ECB really has nothing in their arsenal (they can’t do QE).
Well, they just can’t do QE yet.
Yea, we’re going to 8000 on stocks. And I’m glad.
We have become junkies. We are addicted to QE. We know that corporate margins and stock prices are QE-inflated…but we love the sweet buzz of buying a stock and being proven correct.
But we’re fooling ourselves. We’re not stockpicking geniuses. We’re junkies. Delusional fools.
And, like junkies, we convince ourselves that we’re not hurting anyone. Yea? How about all the children that are going to pay the ultimate price for all this money printing.
It’s time for an intervention. Let the markets crash, I don’t give a fuck anymore. Let the market reflect the shitbag economy that we’ve created.

Why thank you very much, sir !

Well, I guess we didn’t need European lower rates, or any reason at all, to take the market higher.
ECB = Deer in the Headlights
Doesn’t surprise me at all. They’ll be a lot more calls like this as the ECB flails into oblivion,
