Asian markets surged after European Central
Bank (ECB) chief Mario Draghi unveiled a plan to buy the bonds of troubled
eurozone nations such as Spain and Italy in order to lower their cost of
borrowing and help them get back on their feet under a scheme named “Outright
Monetary Transactions”.
Further support came from positive macroeconomic
reports from the U.S data showing many more jobs than expected were created in
the private sector, lifting hopes for the world’s number one economy.
The ECB would buy unlimited amounts of debt
from troubled nations but the purchases would depend on those countries asking
for bailout cash and agreeing to undertake economic reforms.
