The Anatomy of a Serial European Banking Collapse
This is part two of our recap of the European Bank Exposure analysis
that we released last year in anticipation of a total refresh next week
encompassing all of the interesting turns of events. In order to get a
full appreciation of the gravity of the capital trap that the European
banking system is in, and by extension the European commercial real
estate markets, I humbly request that you review the last four
BoomBustBlog posts on this topic before you move on, including the
videos of my keynote presentation at the ING CRE Valuation seminar in
Amsterdam. The video walks through the capital trap quandary that the
European banking system is in from a bird's eye level. In this article
we will drill down to the street level by illustrating a French bank
featured in last year's analysis:

It
has been my belief that the global market crash of 2008 brought upon by
the US mortgage/housing market bubble bursting has never finished.
Massively collaborated attempts at global finance central planning have
stalled the plans of Mother Markets, but her wrath cannot be held at
bay. Reference Do
Black Swans Really Matter? Not As Much as the Circle of Life, The
Circle Purposely Disrupted By Multiple Central Banks Worldwide!!!
for my complete take on the situation. In the meantime, let's look at
what French banks did to claw for yield as the US bubble popped in the
2007/2008 period. As derived and excerpted from 
Euro Bank Soveregn Debt Exposure Final - Pro & Institutional (934.65 kB 2010-05-13 00:11:32):
As
can be seen from above, it is not only the US who has piled leveraged
unit of fiat currency upon leveraged unit of fiat currency in an attempt
to spin gold out of spider webs. Indeed, you can't even blame just the
members of the PIIGS anymore, either, for although they gorged on debt -
someone had to supply said debt and there is still such a thing as risk
management and/or due diligence. No?
What
is the result of throwing pound after pound of leveraged fiat currency
meat into the hungary maw of an overweight European brown bear who is
naught to give it back nor make good use of it? Let's ask one of the
banks from year's report...
As
you can see, the haircut estimtes we used last year actually pale as
compared to what Mother Market is enforcing this year. With that in
mind, remain cognizant that the numbers you are about to see were based
upon proposed losses that are nearly half of what they are today! The
update to this document will have the more recent loss figures for the
banks, using a realistic methodology, and not the "delay and pray"
accounting smoke and mirrors currently reported as results by many banks
- and as allowed by their regulators. For those who wish to access our
most up to date figures, there are subscriber-only online spreadsheets illustrating NPV of losses from probable restructuring scenarios:

- Portugal’s Debt Ridden Finances: An Analysis of Haircuts, Restructuring and Strategy – Professional Analysis
- The Spain Sovereign Debt Haircut Analysis for Professional/Institutional Subscribers
- Ireland Default Restructuring Scenario Analysis with Sustainable Debt/GDP Limits and Haircuts
Whoa!!!
A 63 Texas Ratio when losses were half of what they are now????!!! As
Americans, and TExans from the S&L Crisis area know, a Texas Ration
of 100% generally means no more bank!
Where would said Texas Ratio madness come from? Why, exposure - of course!
Remember the mark to market game being played as detailed in Is Another Banking Crisis Inevitable? and as illustrated in the Amsterdam ING Conferene video...
Well, as I explained in both New Amsterdam (Haarlem, Manhattan) and Amsterdam (Netherlands), this restructuring thing is going to spike rates, which will in turn spike cap rates, whick flatten commercial real estate in a very big way. Guess who's exposed to all of the above...
As a sneak preview of the stuff we're putting out next month, check the exposure creep...

If there's any retard peddling bullshit here, it's you. Where did I say anything about "Jew"? These criminal, mostly (originally) descendants of central/eastern European immigrants are not ethnic Jews. It's a good bet you're one of them too, doing his ADL propaganda ministry duties, since you're likely unemployable otherwise. If so, you're another criminal just like they are and, like them, do not belong in polite civilized society.
Top management of the criminal financial "services" grand theft industry are composed of Ashkenazim vastly greater in numbers than their relative numbers would otherwise suggest. It is a racist global crime syndicate. They lie, they cheat, they steal, they kill.
“Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this earth. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our worldly wise kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves.” — Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin (1977-1983) in a speech to the Knesset [New Statesman Magazine June 25 1982]
"By way of deception, thou shalt do war." -- Ha Mossad, le Modiyn ve le Tafkidim Mayuhadim
Much as I loathe zionists, there is good reason to question the veracity of Begin's 'quote'
(though I wouldn't be at all surprised if that was how the old terrorist really did view goyim)
Yep, the financial sector has become more than 20% of our GDP. What real value do these fucking assholes add to the real economy again? How many times do they keep getting bailed out by stealth means or public means (TALF, TARP, ZIRP)? When does my business get access to a zero interest rate loan?
Crash the fucking system already so that compensation can find its way back to people that are actually worth a shit. I know what we real value we add to the economy, bring it. The arrogance of these financial pricks is unbelievable. I at least hope they are good eating.
When the system crashes, the same ppl will be in charge. That is, the Mega Rich will still be in control, because the populace will turn to them to fix the problems, to build the next "system". If you want compensation, you'll have to take it by force. You'll have to pry those cold bullions out of Rockefellers's cold hands.
I heard Americans have lots of guns, but I doubt they have more than their military. Saddam stayed in power for 30 years mass murdering everybody and their dogs! How long do you think the FED can?
