Futures on the S&P 500 ES00, +0.20% edged 0.2% higher, after the S&P 500 SPX, +0.82% rose Wednesday for the second day in a row, adding 2.4% over the period. “We believe that the meeting may deliver some dovish tweaks to the ECB’s language and forward guidance that reflect changes announced in the recent monetary policy strategy review, in particular the ECB’s statement that monetary policy needs to be ‘especially forceful or persistent’ when policy is set close to the looser end of the spectrum,” said strategists at Credit Suisse.
