"English Law; Negative Pledge" - How To Hedge A Spanish Bond Short
Now that the Spanish bond market has realized it has just been primed by senrio debt, the next steps are straight from our Subordination 101 walkthru. Which means sell Spanish local low bonds, go long English-law, preferably, those with a negative pledge. Of course, the presence of a negative pledge is precisely the loophole that will allow Finland, and soon others, to demand a security interest in the event of priming (such as an ESM-sourced loan) which at last check, is precisely what they are doing assuming the EFSF is used to temporarily source the loan until the ESM takes over. So here is a good example of a bond, courtesy of the Generalitat de Catalunya Euro Medium Term Note Programme, that one should hedge a general basket of local-law Spanish bond shorts.

Contagion, les amis !
La zone euro, c'est une maladie bien contagieuse.
I went to a casino in Pittsburgh hammered at 2am. It was pretty empty and I sat down at a roulette table and made a bet. The dealer spun the wheel abd it barely did a rotation and ended up on black (I had red). I said "what the fk was that?" The dealer looked bored and said "whatever you lose". I got up and left. This whole thing feels like that.
so it cured u of Pittsburg and its casino, but did it cure you of ALL casinos at large; that is the real moral of the story!
The day we leave the casino economy by voting out the cabal, we can start cleaning out the shills and the funny dollar bills in one fell sweep.
Nope because in other casinos, the dealers are US citizens, honest, german bred and all...
Hey AnAnonymous, how do you like my business proposition: Crisis torn Europe would sure dig into a Dummies Guide to US citizenism.
Just think of the translation rights etc.
In Communist China, state runs you.
ANOTHER GREEK EVENT
BEHIND DOORS: SOMEHOW RIGHT BUT GERMANY IS SITTING IN TONS OF GOLD AND WILL ULTIMATELY DEFEND A GOLD STANDARD AFTER TAKING THE CASE FOR A SHORT-TERM ONLY COMMON EURO BOND. ONE WILL CLEARLY SEE GOLD PRICES STRENGHTENING OVER THE COUPLE OF WEEKS AND MONTHS WITH A TARGET OF 1,890 AN OUNCE.
where is that gold stored Ted?
Didn't the holders of Greek English law bonds get paid full face value when local law bond holders watched their bond value dwindle to about 15 cents of face value?
Thanks for the info.
english law is for protecting the Oligarchs; Greek law is for sheeple to be sheered. There is a difference. The one is to defend the predator, the other is to offend the victim; they are totally complementary.
Now you know how the world Oligarchy works in pratical terms. Be a predator in Greece and when you risk to be fleeced as foreign sheeple by the local mafia, go international Oligarch and buy an English insurance policy. Now you are truly global and even the ZH crowd will applaud your savvy. Money is your God until it goes funny in your hands like fleeting sand.
ka-BOOM!
your core idea is dressed to kill, but is worth a more nudie peek?
the laws; the different sets/layers of rules; now, situational ethics and triage has been incorporated into the spectre of spectral laws which change depending on what color somebody feels is appropriate for TPTB that day?
plus the defintion of law itself: law is what is enforced as law
so is our fledgling little zeroHedge ww.speech indicating a ww.legalProblem?
i think so
we can see what the NW0 is up to; what might be a more reasonable approach than another layer of boilerplate on another 000 worth of debt? b/c i think that is what we are looking to get if we don't start thinking more simply, soon about these debt loads and following the money
obviously we need to start a ww.peoples'BANK! and make some fuking rules of our own!
for example, in the US, we will start by taking fanny and freddie and shirley and squirley and the FDIC off the asswipes' books
then, well stop the fuking payments and use the income saved to buy up the shit that we're defaulting on!
nothing to it, but to do it!
I went to a casino in Niagara Falls and decided to drink five double vodkas; went to the crap table and bet the Don't Pass for two hours while all the suckers crapped out and made $5,000 betting WITH THE HOUSE. Always bet with those that control the lawcourts.
If the banks were smart, they would cram this through overnight. The longer this drags out, the more time the "evil" hedge funds will have to take positions. Of course, this deal could destroy the bond market for a long time for everyone. This "deal" could start interest rates rising and once it starts the Central Bankers will have a really hard time stopping it.
short, sweet & to the point... Thanks Tyler(s)...
So EuroDisney just printed Fast Passes for its new ride, Collateral Damage.
