@fwred In these times forward guidance in itself is suicidal.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

ECB hike by 50 should be the death of forward guidance era!!

@Adamlinton1 ECB is aimed only towards closing the spreads.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@ClausVistesen Exactly my take..unlike other central banks ECB has a single mandate of price stability so either they have to change their mandate or act aggressively.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@ClausVistesen If the bond fund managers assume that ECB will not act, they are as wrong as they were for US 6 months ago when 10yr yield was 1.25%.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@ClausVistesen If bond markets say that at 8.6% inflation is ignorable, then probably bond market is wrong. Continued weakening in Euro is highly likely to add to the inflation worries and ECB having single mandate of price stability should mean that ECB has to act strongly.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

Central banks have goofed up more than ever in the current inflationary cycle...their projections were wrong and still they keep on relying their own projections to give forward guidance only to take a U turn on the guidance due to the next CPI print. #ECB #FederalReserve

@pragunameriya33 Maybe fed should fulfill this repeated desperation of market.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shirishupadhyay Market is 1 step ahead...flattening from U2 onwards :D

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shirishupadhyay Because Euribor is the most erratic market.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@TheBondFreak The fed would break his own promise to satisfy the markets..based on one data which they were most likely had a hint of while committing for the next 3 months. What a goofup.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shirishupadhyay Recommendations are simple game: if you are right you take lot of credit... If not you just sit silent. #z2z4

@GoFirstairways This is an extortion racket not an airline. P8WG6J flight had been cancelled twice and everytime you have asked for rescheduling amount and then just before the journey you have cancelled the final flight @MoCA_GoI @makemytrip @JM_Scindia @consumerforum_ @DoC_GoI

Even if there is no significant financial stress, Zoltan will make sure that it does come as market aggressively prices stress due to his research reports.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shortendtrader There is no point of hiking and hiking by 10bps...when ECB'S turn comes either inflation would've cooled a bit or ecb would be running too late so 10 bps hike would solve nothing. IMO it'll either be a race to zero or no hikes if situation changes in next 6 months.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shortendtrader There is another CPI report before the fed meeting... Any option can open if there is a surprise.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@VPatelFX Rehn is one of the doves.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@shirishupadhyay This party will go on....

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@EddBolingbroke @TheTerminal My goodness...that's how research succeeds. If you don't have any stop loss for a trade it might as well come back some day.

[Ankit Agrawal @ankitkag]

@MacroAlf @MarketInterest Isn't it ironical? with falling yield you need to catch up by buying bonds, by buying bonds you are further pushing the yields lower?
