Could be just a little positive sentiment in the Irish economy.
"Yesterday (February 8th), the Irish Minister for Housing said that
the government is working towards reopening the construction
sector in March. This perhaps implies that lower risk, nonessential retail — but not hotels, restaurants and hospitality —
could see restrictions relaxed. If so, Irish GDP could rebound
faster than expected, albeit this scenario is clearly highly sensitive
to how new COVID infections evolve — there were 829 yesterday,
with the vaccine rollout still in its infancy."
