Markets await ECB chief Lagarde's response to the eurozone's financial panic.
Summary by NewsWall Mar 16 23
- Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank (ECB), announced in early February that interest rates would be raised by half a point to 3.5%.
- In other words, everything pointed to a half-point increase in interest rates.
- Credit Suisse's subsequent crisis, for which it has requested assistance from the Swiss central bank, sent markets tumbling on Wednesday.
- If the rate hike is finally 0.25 percentage points, Lagarde will be forced to adopt a more aggressive stance against inflation.
