So Catnip, following our thoughts, Either way the Euro poised to be lower. At some point Germany will have to give up and accept some inflation (in order to give some competitivness to the other countries) if it wants the Euro Zone to remain together.

Imo it is worse than Argentina. German Chancellor Merkel made it as clear as clear can go there is no
economcial and no political union supporting the monetary union. This is just the death knell for EUR.
I don't know whether it is a maximal mistake , maximal stupidity, or a plan.
Of course Greece will default at first the bonds restructuring then default.
Do not believe all those lies. Greece did not live beyond its means in fact Greece spent a lot of money
in its industries to become competitive. Germany killed Greece. How? because of the strict go east policy. An enormous stream of money was invested into eastern Europe and very ceap labor was created there and taken advance of. With that cheap workforces Greece could not compete.

The most I read about Greeces problem the more it looks like Argentina 2001. The same happend when the IMG gave us the bailout package against wage cuts in the public salaries and severe public deficit cuts, i remember it was called tha "blidaje". It was supposed to reduce Argentinas spread an put us on the road again.
The problem was, like its happening in Greece now, that the populaton didnt take it. Riots and striker started.
The result, 6 month later the president resigned and argentina finally defaulted.
It seems like the IMF didnt learn the lesson.
Anyone of you guys feels the same like me? that bail out or not Greece is facing default?
Is there any difference of what happened in Argentina in 2001?

rrose...long only if that Greece thing develops as expected..agreement,,etc etc...in my opinion it will not make any difference to current situation..euro bear situation..pplenty of other issues..
but there can be a nice GAP upwards...maybe worth trying..

im allready short gbp and eur ... will wait until 1,51 and 1,31 respectively..
