Perhaps the reason the credit market sees the risk of government default as very low is a symptom of the "To Big To Fail" mentality.
You may think that after all the bond failures in Europe over the last 7 years, institutional investors would think twice about having governments dump into QE schemes. But it isn't as if they haven't been in a default position before, the Euro's just use different names for their government-backed Ponzi schemes.
Mario Draghi illegally allowed the Greeks to buy back from their national banks. Everyone looked the other way,,,,,,
Oh yeah, an orchestrated ECB asset purchase program to replace and supplant all the national schemes they already have going.....that is truly the signal of economic health just on the horizon.
Woud you buy a Greek Government bond today? Let's up the quality, would you buy a Spanish bond,,,,,French?
Why would you? Because the credit markets have switched from crack to crystal meth?
Sure this market is going to come down, but you don't need credit market analysis to tell you that. Can you believe people are actually considering about the desirability of Junk-Bonds? Who was that, Miliken?
No-one wants Euro Bond Trash, call it what you will, Euro-junk-bonds.
I hope they start buying their own trash, at least they will have a low yield, so when they default, it won't hurt quite as much.
As for those here who actually buy metal, the prices are low, and depending on deflationary pressures, may go lower. Obviously I don't want to see silver lower than the summer's 18% range, but bring it on, and DCA, ALL The Way!
