Rumor has it that the German government is already lobbying hard behind the scenes for a German to become the next ECB president after Christine Lagarde’s term ends in 2027.
Berlin favors both Joachim Nagel, the current Bundesbank chair, and Isabel Schnabel, current member of the ECB’s executive board, over other candidates such as Klaas Knot (former Dutch central bank governor) and Pablo Hernandez (former Spanish central bank governor).
No German has ever been appointed as ECB president and Berlin feels that the time is now right.
However, with Ursula von der Leyen (President of the European Commission and de facto ruler) in place, securing another German in the most influential Eurozone job will be difficult.

FT: Central Bankers have no clue what inflation is and the 2% mandate is absolute horse shit


AfD parliamentary group is introducing a bill that rejects the digital euro.
The group is also demanding that the German government launches a transparent information campaign to educate citizens and ensures that cash remains legal tender accepted by all stationary merchants. Additionally, they want to investigate existing free-market digital money (Bitcoin) as alternatives to the digital euro.

Tired of hearing and reading about Black Week, Black Friday or Black Deals.
Only deal I’m getting is stacking sats during this dip.
Good afternoon from Germany, which apparently now has a space strategy.
Why?

As a hodler, I don't really care if the price goes up or down.
I want to know what happened to move the price.
🧐 Lower to go higher?
