Greek Delegation Leaves EU Commission: No Agreement Today

Tyler Durden's picture




 

So much for a Greek deal getting "done" today, as the market had priced in for the nth countless time on Monday. Here is what happened moments ago according to Bloomberg and Reuters:

  • GREEK GOVT SAYS CAN'T ACCEPT PROPOSALS SUBMITTED TODAY
  • GREEK DELEGATION LEAVES EU COMMISSION
  • SCHAEUBLE SEES INSUFFICIENT PROGRESS FOR GREECE DEAL TODAY
  • SCHAEUBLE SAYS HE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH NEW TO SAY ON GREECE
  • BELGIAN FINMIN SAYS: IT CAN'T REACH DEAL TODAY, WILL SEE IF CAN GET SOMEWHERE TOMORROW
  • STUBB: WILL BE `POSITIVELY SURPRISED' IF WE GET A DEAL TODAY

From the scene of the ongoing crime:

And so on, until the next round of buying ahead of the next rumor, until the next denial launches stocks even higher, ahead of more hopes of an imminent deal launches even more buying program, until the next round of rumors leds to new all time highs and so on, and so on...

In fact, here is the best summary:

I bet that commission had a great, catered lunch.

Back in my corporate days we used to judge the architect's quality of work by the lunch they brought us contractors. I bet those bankers aren't any different; maybe used to a better grade of caviar, maybe, instead of a fresh mozzarella like us, but just the same.

Never mind the market fundamentals, those ugly facts concerning profit and loss and supply and demand. For to watch your investments, you have only two areas to keep in mind: Janet Yellen and the Rates and the ever-present Greek Crisis. Will She raise interest rates a tiny fraction or will Madame Legarde and the Greeks meet their flexible deadline?

Fool me once, and fool me every day - cause the insiders with their inside information will always know which way Yellen and surely must know which way Legarde. It's all in the family.

Sorry folks,

but due to the slowest shitting of the bed ever,

we will have to keep interest rates

at 0% until NASA returns to the Moon.

 

I know return you to your regular programming of

Followed by Neil Degrasse Tyson's COMOS 2 - The Carbon Tax solution'.

If they had any brains, a circle jerk would be a most equitable solution.  Unfortunately, Greece is not a team player. They prefer to be in the middle of the circle, and be the recipient of a bukkake barrage.

Like the conference room is actually in free fall and the kicker will occur in a few weeks, during this Inception.

Tsipras might get a Submarine sandwich named after him...the Greek meat-ing between Legarde, Junker, Putin, some Merkel Jerkie, spread with Hollande sauce..

The markets still have not given back what they gained when the false rumor that Greece was resolved hit last week!

The deal rumor helped the banks offload their crap to retail.

Retail isn't selling quite yet. Retail will sell at the bottom and never look back until the next ATH.

Buy on the rejection, sell on the next proposal. You can make a mint as long as the proposals keep coming. If Tsipras doesn't have a trading account somewhere where he is doing exactly that with 100X leverage, then he is missing huge opportunity.

But as to Greece - jeezus, just default and leave the eurozone already.

The EU was a good idea immediately ruined by the usual suspect bankers and economists and Europeans' own insatiable love for bureacracy.

I dunno - it's all Greek to me....

 

It's a Troika dictatorship in an obvious effort to crush all earo (pun, they're NOT listening) union opposition, including any idea of leaving the earo union. Spain and Portugal are watching, so the Troika-Dics haff to play rough with Greece to discourage any anti-earo temptations....like accept a default or we'll exit-type threats.

 

Brinkmanship games

 

I still think Grease should call the Troika bluff, enlist Russia-China help in every form and make an earo exit. Let it blow up in the Utopians' faces....
