It Just Got Worse: Italian Treasury Just Announced It Will Not Sell 3 Month Bills At The August 10 Auction
Little by little, Italy's self-imposed exile will completely isolate it from capital markets. Here's to hoping that €60 trillion in previously undiscovered money last the country for a looooong while.
Below are the BTP auctions that are now cancelled according to our count:

Bullish
sooooo....bullish
I think a "bullish bitchez" is in order.
This might be the most important news of the week...
Time to open the M bottle!!!! I have been saving this for almost 15 years for this day!!!
Believe it or not, Italy can make it. Berlusconi will save Italy, notwithstanding all bunga bunga.
Will the USA avoid Civil War II ?

Not likely...

Well they are talking about issuing Eurobonds now, so this will presumably make all the Euro zone problems go away.
(Yeah right). These guys are truly out of their minds.
Just a few short days ago and over 1000 DOW points later I can't help but sit back and chuckle at Cramers advice to unsophisticated investors to buy calls.
Obligatory...

Of course Cramer has his disclaimer and all calls he makes are for that minute in time only!
Can someone give rough explanation about why this become negative for our market? Other than the broader implications that Italy is ... collapsing? Why did the dow just do an about face and tank up to 200 points? Why would not sell bills? DOesn't that raise money for them? Sorry, my understanding of some of this is not good.
They aren't selling bills because they don't want the market to price them as the junk that they are. This is a way of pretending that all is well--fiddling while Rome burns.
we are all currency traders now
Kinda like how Obama BBQs and parties while America burns and mobs of his people initimidate and beat innocent white people without anyone calling it a hate crime? Yeah, exactly like that.
Why did the dow just do an about face and tank up to 200 points?
GS putting the "GO for QE3!!!" rumor out there, perhaps?
Cool! Im buying some more silver today on this dip waiting for the monkey boys to trot out all they know onto the stage...QE.

Simple.
Wall St. wants QE3 to kick off asap. Any and all news received until that happens will be construed as negative and the market will be sold accordingly. This will continue until Ben does as he's told.
A classic protection racket, in other words.
I think we have a winner here.
Remember, in this market thinking like a criminal or mafia boss is the only way to understand what's going on. Unfortunately, such thinking is not my strong suit so I rarely do well in such environments.
Yeah Wall Street wants QE3 and some more...I am still betting on the controlled demo of BAC in the near future to realize that end. The original mafia bosses (BAC) get to go on a boat ride in NY harbor and get some new shoes out of the deal. With that accomplished the vacuum is created and QE3/fiscal stimulus/bad asset backstopping to infinity will be justified by TPTB.
I edited my comment, because quintas is actually far closer to the reality.
Banksters wanna get their Heroin fix and are jonesing badly.
McCulley on Bloomberg: "We had a Minsky moment where we repealed the business cycle and created this bubble of debt."
Maybe they should send the little Italian plumber guy with the big moustache out to find enough gold coins to keep them funded.
Makes as much sense as anything else I've heard from the Italian FinMin lately.
Let them eat smushed mushrooms!

Jim Grant on Bloomberg - 20th June 2011
On Money Market Funds and why looking for yield in Europe is a BAD BET FOR ALL!
US Postal Service reports $3.1 Billion loss, and warns of default......No wonder Geithner needed 72 billion real fast.... This country is going in the gutter fast...
'Your check's in the mail' takes on a whole new meaning. :-O
But the radio ads tell me the USPS doesn't cost 1 red cent of taxpayer money...
brutal euro spike there, if this is going to be the vibe in august i may get an extra box of diphers.
edit
their cash would last longer if they quit paying the coupon.
Not having to sell debt/bonds is the latest sign of pride, strength and invincibility on the part of Italy.
/sarc/
-1682 TICK, possibly a NYSE record.
VXO spiked over 40
The PPT just drove up the DJIA from -245 to -43 in, what, less than 10 minutes?
ECB says they are going to commit to buying spanish/italian debt.
At this rate we will be positive in 5...4...3...
fucking lol! Why don't they just print us all prosperity?
Gold surging on the news as well...
Debt monetization is bullish.
lulz
We're saved!
I wonder where they'll get the money to do that?
The EFSF is just about empty after dealing with the 3 existing bailout patients and the Germans do not seem minded to hand over another €1.5 trillion.
I call BS on that.
The rain forest, of course. It's only paper.
The Germans will have a conniption.
Unless they have radically changed their position on the benefits of Hyperinflation.
Just so far today we've had almost 400 points of DOW swings, most of them 200 point moves within minutes....very confidence inspiring!
I look f/w to the margin hike on ES futures. (as if!)
flag as sadly accurate (1)
Wow from -200 to -5 to -80 in the span of 6 minutes.
Looking like we might swing positive yet. Ridiculous.
And then probably end the day down -300.
Annnndddd we're in the green. We'll go +300 on the Dow I bet!
I would like to see the Dow -300 at the close but I feel like we've been saved... for now.
Hey I've been looking for your post! Im thinking 1168 is near term bottom. We just bounced hard off that level.
LOL youre listening to Robo? The guy who was bragging about being all in at 12,700 for the big run up?
Robo is the best and absolutely hilarious. 1168 is the near term low. ECB and the FED to the rescue.
Whatever, Robo.
my thoughts, too. he had to create another id to pat himself on the back. pathetic, but predictable given his narcissistic personality disorder.
Wouldn't it be worse if they did sell 3-mo bills?
At least they got some money coming in what with shaking down all those who arrive from North Africa.
60 trillion? Lira maybe....
LOL, I just dusted off my 'DOW 10K' hat, looks like today I might be putting it back on!
BTW Robo how'd that 'Im all in at 12,700 for the 'debt deal' huge run up' workin out for ya?
Damn, I am feeling good today. It looks like my long awaited high volatility plunge in silver is here, and this one wasn't precipitated by fake crap Osama bin CIAdin selling and margin increases.
The plunging price will keep physical off of the paper markets, and make me some good deals from those silver retailers foolish enough to continue to link their bullion prices strongly to spot.
The time is 2011. Are redefinitions in order?:
God ?
Invisible Hand ?
fiat ?
Wall Street ?
Accounting ?
Justice ?
Mafia financing
Rush L. gives shout out to Tyler.
So Tyler, just what makes your motor run?
Raising debt limits, unlimited borrowing and currency debasement?
or
Spending cuts, austerity, and a strong currency?
Come on, come clean with us. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Whoa -200 then -21. The market is truly broken. Even the Robots don't know what to do. Soon the market will just go dark....
Dow just went from -200 to -40 in a matter of minutes. Naaah...no PPT.
This proves more QE/methadone is not needed.
I guess the FED has the jitters, cant decide whether to tank markets for QE or continue to rescue them. They got full manic depression. One minute sobbing in tears in the corner, the next jubilant and jumping around the room cheering!
Ben is bipolar.
The TSX is a better indicator. Heavy on resources. Everything in plain sight is being sold.
And in order to tell us just that, you wrote an extra article ?
Yawn.
If I got $1 for every time the breakup of the eurozone was announced in the last 3 years, I'd already be a millionaire by now.
Tyler sounds more and more like Ambrose Evans-Pritchard.
AEP is also telling the same thing in different words over and over and over and over and over again.
For 10 fucking years now !
It's getting boring.
How can one make money with such uncreative and dull repetitive work ?
"Tyler sounds more and more like Ambrose Evans-Pritchard"
Sad. True.
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard actually seems to think that the Euro situation can be fixed if Germany and co just caugh up the money. Then he starts talking about the structural imbalances of the Euro (which suggests that it can't be fixed with liquidity). Ambrose actually sounds like two different persons wrapped into one - a eurosceptic realist who sees the Euro for what it is and a delusional stimulus keynesian who quotes Willem Buiter. Frankly I'm fed up with Ambrose's ever increasing flip-flop bullshit.
I don't think it's fair to compare Tyler to Ambrose. Tyler is like the realistic version of Ambrose, a doomsayer for the right reasons minus the flip-flopping.
Yes, better. And no, you can't compare. And both are under the influence of the heavy propaganda that screams for an EuroBond and an EuroTax. Which is silly to hear from an EuroCritic.
On a day like today, you want to make sure that there's ample supply of deodorant on the floor at the NYSE.
The wild swings make even me break out in sweat just watching it from afar. Imagine the guys working the floor?
R2D2 down there sweating on the floor and rusting up!
Italy found 60 trillion
or is it 60 billion ...
60 billion Euros today, 60 trillion Lira tomorrow!
There were banks on the boot when Wall Street was just a muddy turkey's property with occasional bullshit here and there. Time is coming to eat some mud again, cowboys.
They were prolly saying the same thing in Egypt when Rome was flourishing.
We will crash, that is a guarantee. But Italy rise? Doubt it.
Italian banks only took off when one of the five arrows went to Naples.

Until you crash, nobody will rise. Hope soon.
I am all for a crash if that allows the people to regain their sovereignty. Everyone in the world is stuck in this fiat web.
It is not centered in the US though, City of London is the center of the cancer.
pods
Up +100, down -300, back to even, back down -200....just another day in Bananamerica.
Could there be 2 Invisible Hands ?
Yes and theyre improperly touching us!
All I know is that Mr. Margin's calls can't be refused.
RoboMomo knows this all too well.
Tremonti saw the Goldline International ad here, with the smiling Glenn Beck endorsement, and is on the phone with them now putting in his order.......
As a side question, I wonder about that quadrillion dollar nominal value mountain of derivatives. You would think it would be affected by all this or have something to do with these gyrating markets. Even with the non-nominal value being around 10% or less, we are still talking trillions. "What the hand what the eye, dare frame thy fearful symmetrie".
"Little by little, Italy's self-imposed exile will completely isolate it from capital markets."
This is a good development. Nations should not participate in capital markets at all. What Italy needs to do now is to withdraw from the Euro, default on all foreign and domestic Euro denominated debt (basically pretend the Euro doesn't exist) and reintroduce the lira (or perhaps sestertii). Then they need to pass a law that makes illegal for the state to borrow money or participate in the bondmarket in any way. It will be a tough few years but lancing boils can be painful.
I am sorry, I cannot follow this!!! Up 100, down 200, up 125?????????? What the HELL is going on?!!!
