From #Spailout To #Spanic
When US equity futures, Treasury futures, and FX markets opened yesterday to a 'risk-on / reality-off' scenario, we made it clear that we suspected things would look very different by the European close. Sure enough, the markets in Europe (and US) have seen a dramatic shift in sentiment as the realization of the end-game here grows louder. It is evident that any strength, any rip, is to be sold. EURUSD rallied 1.2% at its best near the open last night but is ending 0.2% lower from Friday's close. Europe's broad equity market is closing modestly red after being up almost 2% at the open. Europe's financial credits led the equity market once again as senior spreads swung from a 20bps rally to a 10bps sell-off by the close. Italy was crushed after opened up over 4% to close down over 2.75% as Italian banks were halted all the way down. Spanish banks gave back all their gains (SAN was up almost 6% at the open and closed red). Investment grade credit notably underperformed and high-beta XOver swung from a 35bps tightening to close modestly wider. European sovereign bond spreads all opened notably tighter but were crushed by the close with Spain and Italy underperforming (+60bps and +50bps from their intraday low spreads respectively). Quite simply, Europe has swung from Spanish bailout fantasy to Europe's contagious panic reasserting - and that was after a weekend when Spain (and Spanish banks and every bullish trader out there) got everything they wanted. It would appear that the investing public has become better-educated at what is really going on in Europe and how these interim 'solutions' are all to be faded as Franco-German relations remain tense and Germany stoic. In liquidity/safety land, Swiss 2Y rates plunged 7bps to a new record -35.3bps.
European equities (dark blue) fell led by financials credit (blue and red) - this was your tell...
European Sovereigns were dumped en masse, back near record high yields and CDS levels...
As Spanish equities fell from up nearly 6% to down almost 1%...
as even the 'saved' Spanish banks gave it all back (and were downgraded) as SAN dropped from up almost 10% to down 0.8%...
and overall, Europe ended in a sea of red with DAX managing to hold very modest gains...
and Swiss 2Y rates plunged to new record lows at -35.3bps...

Finally, we can only hope we are joking, but Zero Hedge has dibs on #SpankruptcyTM

Yea gold is going up, the invisible hand will fix that...
This Spanic is quickly turning into Spandemonium as Spandora's box has been opened, and things are getting Spugly
Spantastic.
Not really... this could get very spainful.
Don't get suckered! Plan B, C and D are all waiting in the wings.
They are all variations of "give more money to the banks", right?
This is bad. I was hoping that the cardhouse would stay operational until at least September !
I need to make 3 large purchases of Silver between now and then.. so please JPM do some of your magic!
i think they gonna let the paper run up a bit before next smack down. they have to keep paper players interested if they want to weild any power over the price, if everyone stops playing they lose.
plus i think the are losing their grip, deminishing returns on these dumps.
forming another higher low by looks of it..
buy buy buy
They'll be lucky to make it to the end of the Euro 2012 tornament ...
The Greek election uncertainty coming up Sunday will put a ceiling on the markets this week.
Next time you wanna explain "exponential curves" to some Obama-infatuated socialist or Romney-is-our-savior conservative, explain the half-life of these bailouts.
Ireland- 9-10 months Portugal: 8-9 Greece- 2-3 Spain 2 days!!! Cyprus (ZH rumors rarely wrong): A minutes of CNBC hooplah Italy: Market says fuck you and tanks
Those damn shorts just won't cover....
We shorts will not cover because we are correct in our assessment of the situation. EU = FUBAR

Excellent.
Additionally:
Elvis Costello and the Imposters - "American Gangster Time", from "Momofuku"
"...
Next week there'll be some fashionable new sin
For each harlot and each Puritan
Pull off their wings stick them on a pin
And just watch the money roll in
It's a drag
Saluting that starry rag
I’d rather go blind
For speaking my mind
Or use it just like a gag
So raise it in anger
Just let it hang
American Gangster Time

Gold stocks performing worse then the dow fuck
not by the close.. reversal coming up
Historically, I have never seen gold stocks behave in such a manner (with gold at such a high price). It is like algo's have been programmed to crush them. Putting back on my tin foil hat now:). I am thinking of buying a couple hundred shares of Newmount mining in the next couple days.
Im too far in. I cant keep buying gold stocks. Only physical for me from now on.
Only physical is key.
Seal all hatches, and DIVE DIVE DIVE. Make your depth 1 trillion feet
Yes market is off the Spain hopium high but remember we just had the best week of the year last week. In reality, AAPL is a much bigger deal today. When it sells off, as it always does on the keynote, the market will really tank.
Swiss Francs look good.
That peg isn't going to hold forever.
nothing holds forever. though that floor is cast in concrete, at the moment
"at the moment"
If Greece exits, the Euro will rise and Switzerland might take that opportunity to decouple.
But the the Euro will fall again once the contagion risk has been properly considered.
Obviously, that's just a personal view.
I think you're right for now but how long will 'now' last ?
santander couldn't hold its 10% gains? Hahahaha!
put the google on that puppy between scratchin yer curlies, beer runs, and boisterous bongstering, BiCheZ!
who do they think they are? BAC? L0L!!!
ihow many billion euros will the EU and germany pretend they will cover to extend the half-life of these crooks?
stay tooned...
So Goldman Sachs wanted a piece of Spain now!

Laroche may finally end up being right. Transatlantic monetary system blowout.
When is a Spainsh Deal not a deal?
I'll take door #3.

The market cap of Amzn equals the Spanish "bailout". Think about it.
The entire world is sitting on the most epic overvalued pile of confidence-assets ever created on this crazy planet of ours. And it is all managed by the most corrupt bunch of thieves ever assembled by organized crime.
How long can it last before the remaining real wealth (that is not part of the ponzi) leaves the table?
stealth exit has commenced and is picking up speed
that is the why this market "bounce" won't last and why the rally tanked within hours of the US open
SELLING is key and all this propaganda and pumping over the weekend was supposed to lure in buyers.
NOTHING is working. It's hillarious how they're squirming and frantically trying to offload their paper. I'm amused.
100 billion. Half-Life of what, 4 hours or so LOL.
spailout to spanic to spamic, spam out of your email and back on your plate
dumb euphoria then dumb horror: Spanistic.
Ever shortening half-life of rainbows and unicorns.
No much left of the unicorns. They've already carved off their horns, hooves, mane, tails, tongues, eyes, and ears.
Ibex tanks, CDS rises, 10 yr sovs up 30bps. Time for a fandango!

Or funeral for the Eurozone.
FTSE fell off a cliff. Anyone have ideas why?
People in the know suspect there's something big coming down the pipe and it ain't good.
