Monti Drives Stake in Euro?s Heart ? Sends Italy Down Greece-Paved Road!
2011-12-12 18:14:00 As I watched the ECB news conference on Thursday, I kept wondering how the ECB president, Mario Draghi, could have so completely rejected the idea that the ECB will get into the “periphery bond buyer of last resort” business. Why is this important? Because many believe it will be impossible for the euro to succeed unless the ECB steps in the breach with a massive quantitative easing program for the euro zone’s periphery countries. After announcing a quarter of a point rate cut on Thursday, and explaining the ECB would accept lesser quality collateral from euro-zone banks and take up steps to increase liquidity in the system, Drahgi started taking questions from reporters. Gone was the . . . → Read More: Monti Drives Stake in Euro?s Heart ? Sends Italy Down Greece-Paved Road!

Greece: High Flying Drachma
2011-11-22 15:33:00 The worst-case scenario for Greece, should it be unable to secure further bailouts, might be that it would have to live within its means. Presently, spending only the money coming in is considered unbearably brutal. If Greece could only leave the euro, it could install its own printing press, inflating its sorrows away. Any economist will object: it’s complicated. But it isn’t: Greece could introduce a high-flying New Drachma, quite literally. First, please note that any country may default on its debt. The trouble is that the day after a default it might be difficult or impossible to obtain a loan at palatable terms. As such, any country considering a default must conduct a risk / . . . → Read More: Greece: High Flying Drachma

Greece's admission that it will miss its budget-deficit targets roiled markets Monday as stocks kicked off Q4 on a sour note, with the S&P falling 2.85% to a 13-month low of 1,099.23, led by weakness in bank stocks. Morgan Stanley (MS) fell 7.6% and Bank of America (BAC) dived 9.6% as traders worried about counterparty risk if Europe continues to deteriorate. Futures are near session lows at 7:00, with benchmark S&P -0.8% to 1078, reflecting broader losses across Europe.Europe double-dip? S&P dropped its 2012 outlook for Europe growth - for the second time in five weeks - to 1.1% from 1.5%, and now pegs the risk of a double-dip recession at 40%.
