I do think they should lower rates as Germany is closer to deflation than inflation, but on the other hand they should impose more fiscal discipline in other countries. As to UK I anticipate some tightening as there the central bank is much more wiser than the buffoons at the ECB. Why Buffoons? because they let the EUR slip to around 0.85 in the first place. France is the rout of EZ problems. EZ problems is that the EUR represent a basket of countries and administrations which differ substantially in their political goals expectations and social order. You can not compare family from Greece or Portugal to have the same life style like say a family from Hamburg, Bremen or Rotterdam. The differences are much more wider than let sat Texas and New York.
