'Spain is fundamentally ugly. That’s why Spain’s five year credit default swaps have risen from under 100 basis points at the start of the year to over 300 bps now. Remember, Irish CDS started 2010 at 150 bps, pushed up to 200 bps mid-summer and recently hit 600 bps as the country teetered on the verge of bankruptcy.More at The Wall Street Journal but it's not a reassuring read...
But unlike Ireland, Greece and Portugal, Spain really is too big to rescue. Spain’s banking sector assets of nearly €3.5 trillion are almost €1 trillion more than three other countries’ combined.'
I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech,
I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.
