European Bonds Plunge Most In 8 Months, Stocks Worst Week In 2 Months
European stocks fell for a second day-in-a-row (notable in its own right as not having happened for 5 weeks) for the biggest drop in 6 weeks capping the worst week in 2 months. Spain and Italy saw their stock indices drop 3.6% on the week. But it was European banks and peripheral sovereign bonds that saw the most damage. As JPY-funded leveraged momo come rapidly undone, Italian and Spanish bond spreads saw their biggest 2-day drop in 8 months to end back at 5-week highs. EURUSD ends the week up 0.6% (and the JPY +2.2%) as repatriation escalates. Europe's VIX is holding around 18.% (up 2.5 vols on the week).
As stocks play catch-down to credit...
which leaves the last 2 days for peripheral bonds as the worst in 8 months... (back above 300bps for the first time in six weeks)

"Weekend at Bernie's 3 - The Med"
"Worst Week In 2 Months"
Wake me up when it's worst week in 30 years.
Lemme see
Gold took a pistachio-ing
Commodities taking a shellacking
Credit spreads widening
What could go wrong?
Oh yeah, equities starting to have some bad days
Sound familiar?
Hint hint, take a look back at 2007
Depositors cutting down balances to insured limits, rehypothecation coming under fire (kinda)
What could go wrong?
Bullion banks scrambling to find physical
Fed credit extensions to foreign banks off the charts.
What could go wrong?
What could go wrong?
Barrick and Silver Wheaton halted, this could be good.
Gee, here I was thinking that bonds and stocks are negatively correlated. Turns out, when you pump both, both eventually have to revert to the mean (at least in real terms).
it's okay because those funds have sloshed across the pond into us equities and treasurys so they're safe now. [/sarc.]
A dead horse has a flinch.. that is what the European equity market is - who juiced the carcass with a shot of electricity?
It's ok, they can revive the dead market with a vial of Bernanke's blood.
BENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In reference to the latest Star Trek film. Not bad, not great. Kind of a lot of fluff without any real filler. Just like the times we are living in.
Not bad?
Dude, it's the Anti-Christ of entertainment, clearly trumpeting the current Big Gubamnit meme about the Endless War on Terrorism taking place still, in the 2300's or whenever, the sources of the Federation (whose flag is a modification of the UN standard) all brought to bear against the dark forces attempting to "subvert" the powers that be. Who, by the way, claim goodness and freedom for the universe, just like...
Oh, never the fuck mind...
That's a pure classic example of the Hollywood Washington NWO collusion mind washing, managing perceptions to mold the public's thinking that all is well and as is, shall always be.
All Hail Leadership!
Only thing they left out was pledging fealty to the War on Terror.
Be careful with your thoughts, citizen
Treasuies sneeze...the world gets bubonic plague.

For the dikwad that junked me. [IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img267/2982/pomomay0.jpg[/IMG]
The continent is led by kleptofascismos who think market momo and technical charts are a better economic barometer than simply observing what is happening on the street. This won't last much longer, so I am told...
The ECB obviously needs to get out their Abezooka.
