‘But my personal view is, given the recovery has strengthened and broadened, I don’t see a case for quantitative easing and I have not supported it.'”

This simple quote in the Yorkshire Post from an interview with Bank of England Governor Mark Carney represents an about face in the market’s perception of Carney’s intentions. {snip}
