The newest figures for the ECB QE purchases for the week ending 21st April are proven under:

• Purchased €11bn vs €12.482bn prior
• Complete QE 1.4979tn vs 1.4868tn prior
• Complete lined bonds 216.1bn vs 215.5bn prior
• Complete ABS 24.32bn vs 24.4bn ior
• Complete corp bonds 81.0bn vs 79.6bn prior

It’s value taking into account that these figures had been for the week after Easter and the decline is probably going defined away by their being one much less enterprise day because of the financial institution vacation. While politics have dominated the Euro’s strikes at the moment it’s value remembering that the ECB meet later this week in what may very well be a significant occasion for the one foreign money. 

The DE30 has simply posted one other file all time excessive because the bull run in European equities continues with the German benchmark now closing in on the 12500 degree.
