ECB’s Praet says forward guidance includes an easing bias

Posted: 05 Aug 2013 11:27 PM PDT

I think we know that already

Out on reuters

  • conveys the notion that ECB has not reached lower limit on interest rates
  • ECB has not run out of ammunition
  • further interest rate cuts if inflation outlook warrants

Nothing new here really from the ECB chief economist

Rain stops (fair) play

Posted: 05 Aug 2013 10:54 PM PDT

So, England retain the Ashes with the help of the first rain interruption of the series.

There is little doubt, even to the most partisan Pom, that the Aussies had the upper hand in this Test and deserve the accolades.

Whether they could have bowled England out we’ll never know, but we were definitely up against it yesterday with the Aussie bowlers at full output

After the one-way traffic of Lords it was great to see the whole Australia team come out with such a positive attitude and it bodes well for two great matches to come.

Not a great way to retain the Ashes but I’ll take it, and I still think we can improve ( we have to bat better at the top end) to shrug off whatever else the Aussies can throw up and we’ll win at least one, if not both, of the remaining Tests.

Either way they promise to be a real contest as befits the occasion.
