ECB Leaves Interest Rates Unchanged

Clearly, this means that the European Central Bank does not intend to match the US Federal Reserve Rate cuts. The Bank of England also left rates unchanged.

Honestly, the comments made when this was done were not informative, but my guess is that the ECB sees supporting the dollar right now, absent better US fiscal policy and a reduced trade deficit, as a losing game.
