E.C.B. Cuts Rates for Second Month in a Row
The European Central Bank cut its benchmark interest rate for the second month in a row Thursday, undoing rate increases made earlier this year in response to slowing growth and increasing signs of a credit crunch.
The E.C.B. cut its key rate to 1 percent from 1.25 percent, as expected, returning it to the record low level that had prevailed from 2009 until earlier this year.
