Would you buy 10y Greek Govies ?

"If this information is correct, it is all over. Bloomberg calculates the yield on the Greek 3 Month as determined by the bid, or where investors are willing to buy it, based on BVAL sources at 21.3%. In all honesty the bid/offer market in the 3 Month are all over the place. HDAT gives it as 99.650x99.840, BVAL is at 99.470x99.773. The HDAT bid implies a yield of 14.049%, which is still game over for Greece."

------------------------------ snip ------------------------------



European Union officials have reached an agreement in Brussels today on funding a backstop deal for Greece.



The package will be a single "one-stop shop" between the other 15 Eurozone members, the EU's institutions, and the IMF. If Athens wants to tap the €20-25-billion fund, it will have to apply to both the EU and the IMF jointly. The EU's share of the finance will take the form of bilateral loans at a rate higher than that of the IMF (3-month euribor + 275 basis points) but well below those prevailing in the market.



Greece 385 - 400

Hahahaha, all this immediately followed by a 2 notch Fitch downgrade. Seriously, you can't make this stuff up.
Insofar as I may be heard by anything, which may or may not care what I say, I ask, if it matters, that you be forgiven for anything you may have done or failed to do which requires forgiveness...

At least the rating agencies are contra after the fact rather than before like they used to be, and hence, less dangerous.
