Quote from makloda:
Bundesbank = delusional [/B]

the people making decisions in ECB should better be flipping burgers. They never act, they only re-act. They will cut rates by another 50 points in March but why the hell didn't they cut now ?
They said they had to collect more information about the status of the economy. What kind of information they need to understand that economy is in its worst recession since WW2 ?

The monetary policy should be far more agressive and they should increase their balance sheet and pump money into the system like FED does.

I have to keep in mind Mr. Steinbruecks legendary remarks in the current crisis :

German Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck said in December that Brown’s bank rescue plan marked a switch from “decades of supply side politics” to “crass Keynesianism” and was “breathtaking.”
