European Central Bank Leaves Rates on Hold

The European Central Bank kept all of its key interest rates unchanged, matching expectations that its policy would remain in a holding pattern as inflation gradually picks up in the currency bloc.

Investors will look to President Mario Draghi's press conference for clues on the central bank's next policy moves.
