- Wednesday, December 5, 2012, 7:32 AM In an expected move, National Bank of Poland cuts its benchmark interest rate 25 basis points to 4.25%. EPOL +29% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 8:04 AM The zloty soars against the euro after Poland's central bank unexpectedly leaves its benchmark rate unchanged at 4.75%. The Polish stock ETF: PLND +22.7% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, May 9, 2012, 10:07 AM The National Bank of Poland hikes interest rates 25 bps, bringing its benchmark lending rate to 4.75%, signalling a sharp difference between its economy (inflation worry) vs. much of the rest of Europe (growth worry). Today's increase is 5th in a tightening cycle begun in January 2011. PLND -2.3%. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Monday, March 26, 2012, 1:11 PM Hopes for a European shale gas boom centered around Poland are fading amidst a number of failed wells and a lack of infrastructure, "We know the gas in place is there, but it's unclear if it can be extracted at a rate that's commercial," says an analyst. A U.S. estimate pegged a 300-year supply of gas in Poland, but the country has just cut its own estimate of reserves by 85%. Comment! [Energy, Global & FX]
- Monday, February 6, 2012, 11:42 AM The IMF tips its hat to Poland, calling it a "bright spot" in the region. The agency notes the nation was able to persevere through the crisis because of its ability to support growth through high domestic demand. It also didn't allow the boom in the housing and banking system to get out of hand like more than a few of its European brethren. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, December 30, 2011, 9:19 AM Poland's central bank is rumored to have intervened in the foreign exchange markets to prop up the zloty for the 2nd straight day (the bank has confirmed it intervened on Thursday). Thus far, Poland's finances have been spared much of the concern hitting the PIIGS and its eastern European neighbors such as Hungary. PLND -35% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, July 13, 2011, 3:25 PM Poland's June inflation comes in light - 4.2% vs. expectations of 4.8%, mainly due to a drop in food prices following the E. coli scare. The number could keep the central bank on the sidelines for a few months after hikes earlier this year. EPOL +3.4%, PLND +3.1%. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, June 8, 2011, 12:26 PM As expected, Poland's central bank hikes interest rates 25 basis points to 4.5%. It's the 4th hike this cycle with at least one more in the pipeline. EPOL +60%, PLND +50% Y/Y. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, June 1, 2011, 1:17 PM PMIs throughout Eastern Europe also took a hit in May, with several at or near their lowest level in a year. These countries are dependent on a vibrant EU as destination for their exports and the sharp slowdown there doesn't bode well. Y/Y: GUR +33%, ESR +42%. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, May 18, 2011, 8:38 AM "The year of Polish capital markets" gets off with a struggle. Poland's sale of its 37% stake in Bank Gospodarki Zywnosciowej flops, as it is only able to sell 12% and at a significant discount to the price it hoped to get. Future sales on the docket include a coal miner, a power company, a refiner, and more banks. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, December 16, 2010, 3:41 PM "After all this money has flooded in ... it's hard to find fundamental value," says top-ranked international fund manager David Herro, speaking about emerging market equities. Herro has reduced emerging market stocks to 4% of his portfolio following their biggest rally in 16 years. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
