Bloomberg has a source on the ECB meeting.

  • Weidmann and Lautenschlaeger said to have opposed ECB QE
  • Knot, Hansson and Nowotny said to have reservations on QE plan
  • ECB believes plan will boost inflation 0.4 percentage points in 2015, 0.3 pp in 2016
  • The Dec forecasts were for 0.7% inflation in 2015 and 1.3% next year

One guess about where Weidmann and Lautenschlaeger are from.

It’s no surprise.
