Good day everyone, and I hope those who had a long w-e are well rested or at least up to speed with the gardening despite the rain!

And of course welcome back Eamonn!

Various bits and pieces coming up today datawise and Draghi makes his closing comments from the ECB Forum, but as importantly we will see what the UK and US desks make of Draghi’s comments yesterday, the watershed European election results and Pfizer’s retreat ( albeit probably temporarily) from its bid for Astrazeneca

I wish you all a good session and a successful week
