Tyler Durden's picture




 

EURUSD is plunging - now down 150 pips from Friday's close and having retraced the entire ramp on Greek proposals. The S&P 500, however, is surging...

Nothing - As I've previously stated.

Because if the S&P didn't rocket up, the White House Central Committee would have to issue a nationwide terrorism alert against short sellers. And any broker who dares to defy Dear Leader will be executed by drone.

Smart Euro holders are buying up U.S. equities to protect their wealth from the inevitable crash of the currency.

Because Europe is still fucked and this whole ordeal amounted to basically no change?

Absolutely.

I think the Bank runs are now well underway in Europe and folks need to convert as much euro "shit paper'" to dollars and gold while they still can.

These "assets" seized remain uneconomic so long as the Banks remain closed.

Those Banks will never re-open again in my view.

ZERO trading in US Treasuries today. BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Because they now expect domestic chaos in Greece, that may flow over into other nations. Is this the black swan. 

Do we end up with Greek terrorists doing harm in Germany?

 

The populations of Spain, Italy and Portugal just watched Greece rape its people for benefit of German Troika. They will be most agitated and watching their govts much more closely....

 Look at usd/jpy. It's up 300 pips in 3-4 days. The BoJ is buying U.S. equities and selling the fuck out of yen. Look at the $usdx. Up 1.3% in just the last 8-9 hours.

I thought the point of the Euro is that it is, so I think, backed by 15% gold bullion.

Reminds me of the post-WWI severe reparations and other terms imposed on Germany.  That didn't end so well.  Query, does this deal prohibit Greece from starting or expanding an air force?  I also wonder whether Spain, Italy, and Portugal are re-examining their military options.

After all this comes crashing down I wonder how many people will look back and be stunned they never could read the massive amount of writing on the wall.  It's like nearly every story I've read about pit bull attacks.  The owners always say something like "It was such a sweet dog until it mauled little Johnny..."

New Bitcoin users sold their bitcoins as soon as the "deal" was announced and that why the price of 1 XBT dropped back below $300 USD, but they will be back along with so many thousands of others when they realize that the Euro and the EU are sinking ships.

The European Union is finished.

The EURUSD is subject to global market forces.

The S&P500 is entirely managed/manipulated by (mostly) domestic interests.

Their divergence is hardly a mystery... but rather vivid evidence of the ZIRP-powered & centrally-planned "economy" once known as the United States of America, shall it Rest In Peace...
