In my opinion, this assessment is adventurous....  Conclusion: economic ignorance has led the BVG to make a hair-raising judgement. If the ECB’s PEPP also becomes the target of a lawsuit, this could mean the end of the Eurozone. econoblog 101The German constitutional court’s judgment on the ECB’s bond purchase – a brief commentary Dirk Ehnts | Lecturer at Bard College Berlin, research assistant at the Technical University of Chemnitz, and spokesperson of the board of Pufendorf-Gesellschaft eV in
