UPDATE: 2014 Ideas

Taper/Macro/Europe/CBK/ATOS/ABB/RIO/BAE/PHARMA/BSY/KPN/KBC

YELLEN headlines in line with expectations. Can read them as inline or slightly hawkish. Either way it means more of the same for the FED for now. The Taper continues… As we said in our 2014 piece we think Europe outperforms the US in 2014 If anything there is even more reason for that to…
