European shares fall as ECB starts buying bonds....Mon Mar 9, 2015

PARIS, March 9 (Reuters) - European shares fell on Monday with investors booking recent lofty gains as the European Central Bank begins its programme of bond purchases, aimed at boosting inflation and growth.

The market has strongly rallied since the start of the year, with the FTSEurofirst 300 surging 14 percent in the run-up to the start of the ECB's quantitative easing programme, under which it will buy 60 billion euros a month of bonds.

"It's 'buy the rumour, sell the news'. European stocks have jumped 15 percent since the start of the year and the positive impact from QE has broadly been priced in by now," Saxo Bank trader Pierre Martin said.

PARIS, March 9 (Reuters) - European shares fell on Monday with investors booking recent lofty gains as the European Central Bank begins its programme of bond purchases, aimed at boosting inflation and growth.

The drop in European stocks on Monday mirrored a sell-off on Wall Street on Friday, where strong U.S. jobs data fanned expectations that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates sooner than previously thought.

I maybe seriously wrong...but M.O.M comparison.....seems like the ROI is slowing down a lot...or is it just a 1 month incident?...have to monitor again....

US menang ... ECB gambateh !

Actually, it is quite rational, according to the type of market participant.

Shorter term participants (traders, speculators) are focussed on market expectations. If they expect interest rate rises, which is bad, they react accordingly.

Longer term participants (investors) focus on economic growth. If jobs growth point to a stronger economy in the longer term, now is a good time to invest.
