ECB's Nowotny: Euro area has an economic upswing

Checking Market Activity on Smart Phone

Yo, if anyone is listening to these clowns respected central bankers at the ECB

Nowotny speaking in a TV interview ... Bloomberg with the headlines:

  • Euro area has an economic upswing
  • ECB can counter asset bubbles with macroprudential steps
  • Inflation is not our problem

-

So, I'm wondering why Nowotny wasn't mouthing off about better growth propects before the meeting? Its not like it was any great mystery ... Adam had this from Wednesday ... " This diminishes that probability of a large move from the ECB. The euro is rallying on this, it's bullish. "( ECB said to present largely unchanged macroeconomic forecasts - BBG ),

... and yet still Draghi had his mouth at 'pedal to the metal' despite his own frikkin' well-funded bank becoming more optimistic? Plonker.
