U.S. markets are rebounding amid hopes
that the European Central Bank’s president Mario Draghi will indicate
that there’s some progress towards a unified effort to solve, or at
least stem, the ongoing debt crisis on the continent. A plan
for a continent-wide banking union, complete with its own version of
the FDIC, was also announced. A promising idea, the continent-wide
banking union would no doubt take significant time to coordinate and
implement. Earlier Wednesday the ECB announced that
the main interest rate will remain at 1%. Europe’s first-quarter GDP
was also unchanged from the previous quarter and while some may take
all of the above as relatively good news there’s still a couple of
elephants in the room – Spain and Greece. Nonetheless,
European markets were up as much as 1.7% for the day’s session. Back at
home, investors will await the Beige Book set to be released this
afternoon. The Beige Book gives investors a glimpse into the economic
conditions throughout the U.S. Have a great day!
