Instead of trying to moderate its strength, euro area countries have now embarked in trade wars with China, on solar panels. Chances are now that China will retaliate, refusing to support European debt market, a mild promise of the recent past. Ecb seems unwilling to cut deposit rates to negative but tomorrow they will better find something else to make euro weaken or euro area will definitely enter a prolonged period of stagnation and deflation, with even direr consequences on European unemployment.   http://www.finanze.net/news-ECB_Emergency_Measures_Are_Needed_Tomorrow-3286.html Wed, 5 Jun 2013 08:26:00 GMT
