Grexit “Disaster” Looms As Greek Hospitals Run Out Of Sheets, Painkillers
Grexit “Disaster” Looms As Greek Hospitals Run Out Of Sheets, Painkillers The default countdown is about to go under 10 days and it is becoming increasingly apparent that both Greece and its creditors have had enough.

The IMF Leaks Greece
The IMF Leaks Greece Whenever secret or confidential information or documents are leaked to the press, the first question should always be who leaked it and why. That’s often more important than the contents of what has been leaked. And since there’s been a lot of hullabaloo about a leaked document the past two days, […]
When Europe Gets Greece’s Jingle Mail: Dealing with Default
When Europe Gets Greece’s Jingle Mail: Dealing with Default The costs and consequences of Greece exiting the Eurozone may well dwarf the financial losses triggered by Greece’s default. The term Jingle mail originated in the great popping of the housing bubble 2008-2011. It refers to defaulting homeowners mailing the keys to their house back to the lender, and […]
IMF Preparing Greek Default Contingency Plan
IMF Preparing Greek Default Contingency Plan The biggest slow motion trainwreck in history, one that everyone knows how it ends just not when (especially since the “when” is about 5 years overdue), that of the Greek sovereign default may just got a bit more exciting earlier today when the WSJ reported that the IMF can no longer lie – like Mario Draghi […]

Germany Prepares For “Plan B”, Says Greece Would “Need Not Only A Third Bailout, But Fourth, Fifth Or Even More” It has been a very disturbing 24 hours for Greece. It all started during yesterday’s surprisingly short, just one hour long Eurozone finmin meeting in Riga, where Yanis Varoufakis not only got the most “hostile” […]
Grexit: Remaining In The Eurozone Is No Longer ‘The Base Case’ For Greece
Grexit: Remaining In The Eurozone Is No Longer ‘The Base Case’ For Greece According to the Wall Street Journal, Greece staying in the eurozone is no longer “the base case” for European officials, and one even told the Journal that “literally nothing has been achieved” in negotiations with the new Greek government since the Greek election […]
The Global Liquidity Squeeze Has Begun
The Global Liquidity Squeeze Has Begun Get ready for another major worldwide credit crunch. Today, the entire global financial system resembles a colossal spiral of debt. Just about all economic activity involves the flow of credit in some way, and so the only way to have “economic growth” is to introduce even more debt into […]
Is May 9 The Grexit Date?
Is May 9 The Grexit Date? Yes, more Greece, ever more Greece. Well, the focus is still very much there. It’s not the only topic, obviously, China warrants interest too, certainly with things like Tyler Durden quoting Cornerstone Macro as saying China’s true economic growth rate was just 1.6% in Q1 2015, not the official government […]

Greece Said To Prepare “Grexit”, Drachma, Bank Nationalization Plans On Thursday morning, we took an in-depth look at what the progression of events is likely to be in the event a cash-strapped, negotiation-weary Greece finally, for lack of will or for lack of options, fails to scrape together enough cash to pay its creditors. As BofAML notes, […]
Is Greece About to Play its Geopolitical Trump Card and Ignite a Chain Reaction Across Europe?
Is Greece About to Play its Geopolitical Trump Card and Ignite a Chain Reaction Across Europe? If the EMU powers persist mechanically with their stale demands – even reverting to terms that the previous pro-EMU government in Athens rejected in December – they risk setting off a political chain-reaction that can only eviscerate the EU […]
Greece Prepares To Leave
Greece Prepares To Leave Speculation and expert comments are thrown around once more – or still – like candy on Halloween. Let me therefore retrace what I’ve said before. Because I think it’s really awfully simple, once you got the underlying factors in place. But first, if one thing has become obvious after Syriza was […]

EU and Greece Running Out of Time – As Bank Runs Intensify, Bail-Ins Likely – EU and Greece running out of time as talks end “in disarray” – again – Greece warns Merkel of ‘impossible’ debt – Concerns Greece out of money by end of April – Friday’s “agreement” in Brussels falls apart hours later […]
C’mon Angela, Let Them Greexit
C’mon Angela, Let Them Greexit With each passing day it becomes more obvious that Europe is heading for an epochal financial conflagration. So buy-the-dip if you must, but don’t believe for a minute that the US has decoupled. When the euro and EU eventually implode it will rattle the bones of every gambler and algo left […]

After Pillaging Pensions, Greece Raids Utilities To Repay Troika; Bonds Plunge As Bank Run Accelerates Following yesterday’s news that the ECB is now running simulationson what a Grexit would mean for Greek bond prices (spoiler alert: “fundamentals” suggest a 95% loss), overnight we got more confirmation that Mario Draghi continues to tighten the screws on the […]
