Goldman Sachs завтра (т. е. уже сегодня) ожидают «голубиный сюрприз» от Драги: значительное увеличение европейского QE, которое должно по их мнению привести к падению пары на 2-3 фигуры, отправить евро на паритет к доллару к концу месяца и года, и к 0.95 в следующем году.

Our rationale boils down to the following. If the ECB eases again tomorrow, something that President Draghi essentially pre-­committed to in October, it will mean that the ECB has eased twice in 2015, precluding further easing on a reasonable horizon.
  • It is thus important — both for ECB credibility and, more important, for reversing the lowflation dynamic — to make tomorrow's easing a material event, i.e. to surprise the market.
  • We continue to think that the hurdle in this regard is relatively low and see a 2­-3 big figure drop in EUR/$ on the day, with parity by year­end and 0.95 (our 12­month forecast) potentially reached as early as end­-March.

The note goes on… but Brooks does address the positioning argument,:

  • Certainly, it is true that speculative shorts have built in the CFTC data… but — as we have shown in past research — that sub­set of the market tends to lead, i.e. broader positioning is likely more modest.
  • And of course it remains the case that downside skew in EUR/$ is modest compared to the run­up to the Jan. 22 meeting.
