- However rising inflation alongside will heat up the debate as German Bundesbank remained harsh critique of QE's effect on inflation.
As per today's data consumer prices rose 2% and 2.1% m/m in Spain and Italy respectively. Such rises are still a contribution of higher input and import costs due to lower Euro. Nevertheless inflation expectations are on the rise in Euro zone.
Improved economic dockets, weaker Euro and ECB bond purchase will continue to boost European stocks further which as of now hovering around 15 year high while some like German DAX is trading at all time high.
