    I didn't understand any of this thread, not even the title.



    ECB was thought to be doing QE like our Bank of England but instead they have invested savings deposited with them in various government bonds which seems fairly normal

    (in theory they make a nice profit, in practise they are taking more risk here and might lose alot of money)


    I doubt they bought any british gilts :o Does that put pressure on us
