ECB takes the lead …

ECB today made clear, that there is NO CHANCE for a rate cut …

Due to the current inflation picture, most of the ECB council members see a case for a RATE HIKE …

Trichet sees the possibility for a JULY “small” rate hike …

So … this means NO MORE RATE CUTS … neither from the FED nor from the BoE …

RATES WILL GO HIGHER … WHICH WILL HURT VALUATIONS OF EQUITIES …

Euro jumped on the news … so Ben should be quick to hike ;)

As recent as yesterday, he, Ben Bernanke “saw and wanted” a stronger Dollar … but …

As currencies move because of interest rate moves … direction and velocity are key …

The race is on … who fights quicker and faster inflation …

will have the stronger currency … and LESS inflation :D

Stay tuned …
