Spreadex Market Update

22.05.12 Tuesday Morning



The topic of eurobonds is providing temporary relief for the markets as investors and spread betters are pinning their hopes that German Chancellor Angela Merkel may lower her guard on the joint bond subject in tomorrow’s EU meeting.

Stimulus is the other matter on which bulls are earnestly awaiting to hear some affirmed action, either from Europe or China, in order to reclaim back some value in their portfolios.

Europe has got to the point where throwing more money at this crisis isn’t going to help because it is likely that Greek anti-austerity party Syriza are going to clinch victory in the re-election on the 17th June.

That’s why some investors believe the only way to solve the problem and save the euro in its current form is to issue eurobonds.

Although this is a massive conflict of interest for Merkel as any pro-euro bond stance will undoubtedly scupper her chances of retaining power in the next elections.
