European Ben

We had Ben Bernanke here in Europe spreading his message. Not much effect on the markets. The Chinese announcing some policy change created a little blip while Ben was talking. Trichet showed what a big fan of Ben he is. Rome and fiddles come to mind. You can read the text of his speech here.

I did some trades in my old market, the German Bund (I traded it when LIFFE owned it). Not so many trades but the net was quite green.
