Central Bank Madness


Yesterday, the Reserve Bank of Australia held rates steady at 6.5%. Today, we'll hear from the Bank of Canada, and tomorrow, the Bank of England and the European Central Bank. I don't expect any changes in rates, as these decision-making bodies may want to take a wait-and-see attitude toward the credit crunch. Look for comments, both hawkish and dovish, to determine the next directional moves.
