With Greece on the brink of new elections, and the possibility of Greece leaving the Euro inching forward, we asked our Zintro experts how a Greek exit from the euro currency would effect the economies of Europe and impact global markets.

Kinuthia Karanja, an investment consultant, says that the exit of Greece from the euro currency will be positive because the Hellenic state has been the weakest link. “As the clouds of the crisis clear (albeit temporarily), we could witness a run of the euro back to the 1.60 level versus the U.S. dollar. Greece itself will be unshackled from the euro currency that has been causing an appreciation of its sovereign debt commitments in nominal terms,” Karanja says. “A return to the drachma could see a quick resolution: devaluation, default, and a return to growth. During the 1931 Sovereign Debt Crisis, Britain was able to shake off the depression by abandoning the gold standard. The euro is acting as the modern day gold standard, forcing deflation and depression upon the heavily indebted euro zone nations.”

What do you think?

Spartans dont need the euro and the banksters shackles to survive. Iceland is living proof. They should walk away and revert back to drachma. Euro would be spooked a bit, but I too expect it to mount a nasty rally back to 1.40 as the record short contracts get burnt by the vicious reversal that will come from the EU policy makers courtesy of Ze Germans.

Are you watching the German 10yr bund yields rout to multi year lows as well as negative yields on Swiss bonds. A major reversal is looming and that will send the euro flying like a stretched rubberband.

EURKES is my trade aiming 160/- 2013.

With these indexes falling Obama's re-election is in jeopardy.
Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

Apparently the United States had the GREATEST growth at a period it had no central bank(19th Century). Now in the 21st century Hong Kong has had the greatest growth at a time it has had no central bank too.

Shhh! You blowing it for the CBs out there... Isnt it interesting how CBs try to justify their existence by promising price stability and economy smoothness, only to deliver the opposite with vigor?! CBs & Ponzinomics are one and the same. They need to be shutdown for good.

Again George Soros warns...

Quote:
But Mrs Merkel has so far rebuffed all proposals to help relieve Spain and Italy from the jump in their borrowing costs and has resisted allowing the European Central Bank (ECB) to step up buying of peripheral sovereign debt.

This, according to billionaire investor George Soros, poses a threat to the region's stability and threatens to turn a summit of leaders on June 28 in a 'fiasco'.

'Even if a fatal accident can be avoided, the division between creditor and debtor countries will be reinforced and the "periphery" countries will have no chance to regain competitiveness because the playing field is tilted against them,' he said in a Financial Times editorial today.

In an interview with RT, he added: 'Merkel has emerged as a strong leader. Unfortunately, she has been leading Europe in the wrong direction.'

Thumbs up!

"SUNDERLAND today announced the biggest shirt sponsorship deal in the club’s history.

London-based oil company Tullow Oil are promoting the Invest In Africa initiative on the club’s strips for at least the next two seasons.

And though both the oil company and the club did not want to be drawn over the exact figures of the deal, it marks a major investment in SAFC and is comfortably the biggest shirt sponsorship the club has been involved in..."

Greek FinMin quits a few days after appointment. That must be a new guiness book record for quitting a job.

Must have literally seen the hidden skeletons in the closet.
