Subject: Fwd: GREED & fear - 16 Jan, 2012 - Flash

Risk markets’ relatively subdued reaction to the French credit downgrade on Friday provides
GREED & fear with an opportunity to remove the recommended short European financial trade
as a hedge for long Asian equity investors when trading resumes on Monday. The main reason
to do this is the potential for a benign interlude provided by the ECB’s increasingly aggressive
liquidity support for the European banking system.

By creating a massive incentive for European banks to buy their government’s debt issuance up
to three years maturity, the new ECB leader Mario Draghi is clearly seeking to get control over
the direction of Eurozone government bond yields. The dramatic decline in Eurozone bond
yields up to three years suggests he is getting some traction

Have you seen this?

The author has a very interesting theory on why the new Bankruptcy laws were lobbied for by the finance industry.

Question for you lawyers out there. Is he correct in saying derivatives have priority over bond holders and clients funds in a bankruptcy? This is certainly a paradigm shift if so.
