Yesterday, the European Central Bank published its policy decision, leaving the interest rate unchanged at 0% despite high inflation. The ECB has kept the interest rate at zero for the past 6 years.

Furthermore, the regulator announced it would finish the APP bond-buying program in Q2 2022. Asset purchases would be reduced to €20 billion by June from the current level of €40 billion.

The ECB's decision has boosted optimism among investors amid attempts by US and UK regulators to quell high inflation by hiking interest rates.
