Reuters reported that members of the European Central Bank discussed in a video conference on Monday when they should start reducing their 1.85 trillion euro emergency bond purchase plan (PEPP). Among them, the governors of the central banks of Germany and Austria support reducing the size of debt purchases as soon as possible. The governors of the central banks of France and Italy tend to support maintaining the current bond purchase situation. At this stage, it is difficult to gauge whether the Fed or the European Central Bank will take the lead in reducing the scale of bond purchases. But it is almost certain that the European Central Bank has no intention of increasing the scale of debt purchases. As long as the European Central Bank is no longer willing to increase the amount of allowances, in order to avoid the dollar being thrown away and losing its leadership, it is conceivable that the Fed will find it difficult to continue to increase the amount of allowances. This will restrict the Biden policy from pushing one large-scale economic stimulus package after another.
