Guest Post: ECB Tries Again

My friend Andy Fately sent a brilliant pair of limericks to his clients this morning. Andy, a Corporate FX Risk Strategist for Barclays Capital who used to tweet as @fx_poet, is a foreign exchange limericker, a rare subspecies of financial poet. Here are his verses today:

There once was a group of old fossils
Whose policy slips were colossal,
And later today,
They’re likely to say
Come follow us, like we’re apostles.

But what can they possibly do
To fix all the things that they blew?
The popular theme’s
A new banking scheme
To help failing banks to pull through.
