So the cap was removed and SF strengthen against EURO , my question is how does the EU central bank buying back the bonds affect SF ? any expert ? [smash]

 

News at Yahoo

 

in order to buy ECB bonds, ECB is assumed to QE & print EUR, so this cap removal is like getting away from a very visible incoming Euro tsunami...

 

swiss central bank is saying theyre not gona spend more money buying EUR & selling CHF to defend the cap when ECB QE happens, so they just got out of the way first lol...

 

my worry now is if our SG garmen is also gona do something like swiss next time... right now MAS does alot of open mkt fixing to make SGD steady vs other currencies. Will there be a pt in the future which MAS will stop fixing the SGD n explode the mkt like EURCHF last night?

From the report , ECB is going to start buying bonds next week due to SNB's current decision .

UNless ECB already have plans to buy back bonds months ago. ... But I doubt that . EU is already very weak ... very hard for the ECB to start buying back bond unless necessary

ECQ QE rumor has been ard for long time already hence EUR's weakness, its nothing really to w SNB decision, more like SNB made a decision based on continued EUR weakness....

ohh i C , so basically SNB is saying .. enough is enough . OK that explained their decision.

 

Now , if ECB is going to print more and buy back bonds , how that going to solve the problem ? Having more EURO floating is going to worsen the situation isnt it ?

My opinion is that swiss make the biggest mistake for removing currency plague to gold. So effectively swiss franc is just like any other currencies with no sound $, aka can print $ anytime they want if lend under wrong leader. so well..

Which also means that those who have bought these (new) recently can sell at even higher price?

In a surprise act and lightning fast movement, the cap was removed. Now many are worried that the resulting shot up has sown the seeds for unwanted complication. In the worst case, lives may be ruined.

 

Sounds like the Swiss Franc screwed more than a few, and the angry ones may demand to see the parent.

The problem with the euro is that so many countries with contrasting stages of economic development and different monetary policy needs are being straightjacketed by the euro and ecb mandated interest rates.

 

Spain and Germany are examples of contrasting needs. Back in 2011. One weak and the other strong. One can survive with a strong euro and the other needs a weak euro to survive.

 

The Swiss tried to keep to status quo when the euro weakened but the Swiss economy wasnt in trouble and yet they weakened in sync with the euro, in the end (2015), you are just hurting your own economy if you peg without looking at the fundamentals.

 

Just like how the strengthening USD will now cause problems again for economies with USD pegs (eg: HKD and VND).
