Expert on german debt told Reuters German bonds very obviously will mask actual state of total debt.
Rejects Schauble's explanation of "intelligent debt management" rather German bonds to be issued beginning 2013 are hidden bailout of overly indebted federal countries and communities . Not just another german curio .

should read German BONDS ..i.e. bunds are issued on total German debt, not only on bund debt, that makes roughly 700 bln more debt to be issued.

Merkel has agreed on German bunds. Imo not positive for EUR because sofar the total debt of germany,
bund and federal countries, and cities and communities, exceeds 2.1 trn, the debt of countries exploding 4% y/y , had hardly been watched. Now it is obvious Germany is the most indebted state of the Eurozone in absolute figures. Merkel's move comes unexpected and raises questions about the financial health. Before the EU summit EURx will be tightly range bund but after that the trade is short.

I don't think so but perhaps Merkel does? She is so proud of german football....she doesn't know the aim is to get the ball in the opposite goal ...just kicking on.

Cat, do you think these historical speeches day by day are going to drag out for the next 20 yrs to mould a federal europe. Or is the politics & math impossible.

Chartastrologers missed the historical Merkel speech that EMF ( not exist) and EFSF ( empty) can buy troubled bonds and the EUR came back from not QE shock. But it was in the charts. Now we are long USD and long JPY.

Fed Funds rate unchanged at 0.25%. Fed twist extension (as expected) to swap $267B of Treasuries by year end to drive down the long end of the curve....ie USD up. eurusd drops 50 odd points (so far)...currently 1.2650
