Daily MacroWSJ
European markets are down again. The prime explanation is that there are doubts being sown around the prospects of action from the ECB.

Oil price at USD 50 is not sustainableNordea
Supply and demand for oil reacts very little to price changes short term, but the reaction is not zero. Estimated price elasticities indicate that the present “excess supply” of oil will disappear within a year’s time, implying that the oil price should shoot up in the second half of 2015 and/or in 2016.
