EUROPE
The macroeconomic effects of the Eurozone's fiscal consolidationvox
With credit constraints both in the household and the firm sector, fiscal consolidation would be largely responsible for the weak growth performance during 2011-2013. Postponing the fiscal consolidation to a period of unconstrained monetary policy would have avoided most of these losses.

Global FX Strategy: A liftoff, or a fizzling?Nordea
The policy divergence theme is back with a vengeance, after taking a brief time-out after Fed’s dovish hold in September. Now, ECB seems likely to err on the dovish side, while the Fed seems dead set to hike rates. The potential impact from the first rate hike in the world’s main reserve currency in almost 10 years should not be understated.

New financial forecastsNordea
Over the last month, it has become increasingly likely that the Fed will start hiking in December and that it will be on its own, even more so than previously assumed. The BoE’s lift-off seems to be postponed while new easing measures are expected from the ECB. The BoJ has, like the ECB, been surprised by low inflation, but seems unwilling to expand its QE.

While last Friday's knockout jobs print has been cut down to size by any number of commentators, a raft of new data from the US show that the country's economy is indeed fairly solid and could likely absorb a Fed rate hike.
