As widely expected and just a bit above yesterday's trial balloon leak, the ECB will launch or rather "Expand" asset purchases to $60 Billion a month starting with Agency Debt in March. The program is scheduled for 16 months (Sept 2016) which puts it right at the market consensus of 1 trn Euro (1.06 trn).
So far this is the market's reaction or at least the SPX's futures/ ES.
Is interest rates about to start going up?

Yes, I know - it does not make any sense - FED is about to cut
rates...but....real world interest rates are not always what FED wants it
to be.
