Odds of more ECB easing increase - Ilian Yotov
FXStreet (Łódź) - Ilian Yotov, Portfolio Manager at ATFX Currency Management believes that there is more possibility of the ECB announcing monetary policy easing at the meeting on Thursday due to the further decline in Eurozone CPI and the area's growth grinding to a halt in Q2.

"The ECB President Draghi has also been very clear in recent speeches that the door is wide open to easing monetary policy further."
"In fact, the ECB has announced recently that it is looking to hire consultants to advise the central bank on QE strategies."
"With the ECB one step closer to launching a QE program, the divergence in the monetary policies between the ECB and other central banks is becoming bigger and even more visible, which should keep the EUR under pressure."
