Anyone hear anything on LatAm today? This is all I found and it doesnt seem to warrant a 4 point drop in TBH and similar selling in other bellweathers. Any REAL rumors out there???? Maybe a top Argentine presidential candidate announced an unpopular fiscal position???

The vols on the options are kinda low & I want to get in early if this leg down is for real. It was all late selling, too. Arg down 4%, Brazil down 2%.

FX IN EUROPE-Euro/dollar adjourns
parity challenge

LONDON, July 14 (Reuters) - The euro on Wednesday
enjoyed a respite against the dollar, rising over a cent from
life lows, but was still seen at risk of hitting parity with the
U.S. unit.


So, anybody make money on Henry's call here? Perhaps if he charged for his advice, we'd all be more inclined to trade off it... ;-) Of course then he'd have all of us buying bonds, and we couldn't have that now could we?
