@ycsun..

Our foreign "friends" have began creating employment for themselves smile

World leaders have unblocked $15 billion in funds to help Libya’s victorious rebels rebuild their shattered country as fugitive strongman Muammar Gaddafi called for guerilla warfare.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the rebels’ most prominent backer from the outset, announced that billions of dollars in Libyan assets frozen abroad will now be unblocked.

“Around $15 billion have been immediately unfrozen ... we want to give back to the Libyans the money that was frozen and that was stolen from them,” he said.

Obama is shooting from the hip. It seems he's setting up GOP and Congress for his Thursday employment speech. Lets wait and see though seems he might go for direct employment & tax cuts for the middle class. World markets are patiently waiting.

They should also couple it with fiscal discipline and stop wasting time @ that.

Elsewhere in the capital, black Libyans and other migrants are being arrested on sight and imprisoned by armed residents, rebel fighters and untrained officials who have assumed localised control of security in the wake of Muammar Gaddafi's defeat and disappearance. http://english.aljazeera...201191102134823327.html

Syria, Yemen & Libya - Libya makes more biz sense to the military industrial complex... But I'd be uncomfy as NATO with Gaddafi on the lose. This is not over yet...

Meanwhile, Dexia, that Belgium bank that leeched on Fed bank the most back in 2008 during GFC, the CEO now resigns. Btw it started leeching again this yr. I guess this baby cannot stop suckling even after growing molars! Anyway been a good shorting stock this year.

Greece gubberment bond 1yr yield @88.5%... I won't post the graph. It is very 'scary' to look at... Don't forget today is when Bundestag rules on German's bailout of Greece et al who somehow have run broke after trillions were pumped last yr by ECB.

@kizee1 & @scubidu will lavish that yield chart as well as other bond traders...

There's fire in the hole today in euroland... Global trading desks are antsy...

Outright rejection of Germany bailing out Eurozone members would have been worse.

Hisah- don't think the court had any choice-staring over a cliff. A rejection of Merkel's EU support would have harmed Germany in the long-term.

Still think Greece will capitulate

Hiii. Scary graph indeed. That's some premium. Locally our yields seem to be dropping today ... I'm happy.

@mainat - Greece will still crash. It is inevitable with such bond yields. The 10yr bond yield is now at 20% - a Euro era record! The 1yr yield is now @85%. Default coming soon...

@cnn - it doesn't matter whether the rejection was outright or partial. The decision itself says a lot. I don't think this euro experiment will last beyond 5yrs. The SNB 10% devaluation of the swiss franc in favour of euros yesterday points a lot to the desperation of maintaining the status quo against all odds... We no longer have free markets with CBs intervening in markets everywhere... Even in KE, CBK is intervening all the time... Broken markets this smile

And before I doze off, the Greek 1yr yield is now at 96.95%... Kaboom!

http://www.bloomberg.com...uote?ticker=GGGB1YR:IND - 1yr
http://www.bloomberg.com...uote?ticker=GGGB2YR:IND - 2yr
http://www.bloomberg.com...uote?ticker=GGGB5YR:IND - 5yr
http://www.bloomberg.com...ote?ticker=GGGB10YR:IND - 10yr
http://www.bloomberg.com...ote?ticker=GGGB30YR:IND - 30yr

But alas! Global stocks are rallying like nobody's business... Mr. Market being 100% himself...

November will be interesting...

Greece did the same last yr, remember... Then a $1 trillion package was put up in euroland to prevent other EU member states from getting their bug. But alas! We are back again to the same spot & worse of...

Boring game this since 2008... This show needs to end for the episodes are too predictable if not the same...
