"How can I know what I think until I read what I write?" – Henry James


There are a few lone voices willing to utter heresy. I am an avid follower of Ilusion Monetaria, a blog by ex-Bank of Spain economist (and monetarist) Miguel Navascues here.
Dr Navascues calls a spade a spade. He exhorts Spain to break free of EMU oppression immediately. (Ambrose Evans-Pritchard)

S & P

Se está generando un ambiente de euforia que no tiene fundamento... Sólo el crecimiento tiene fundamento.
Standard and Poor’s has warned Germany and the five other triple-A members of the euro zone that they risk having their top-notch ratings downgraded as a result of deepening economic and political turmoil in the single currency bloc.


The US ratings agency is poised to announce later on Monday that it is putting Germany, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Finland, and Luxembourg on “credit-watch negative”, meaning there is a one-in-two chance of a downgrade within 90 days.
It warned all six governments that their ratings could be lowered to AA+ if the credit-watch review failed to convince its experts. Markets have been braced for a potential downgrade of France but few expected Germany’s top rating to be called into question.

 Por otra parte, el jefe de la Autoridad Bancaria Europea criticó al Consejo Europeo de "carencias importantes", como la evidencia de una profunda crisis crediticia en todo el continenteAndrea Enria criticó el fracaso de los líderes de la UE de aprobar un plan para la conexión de las garantías en la zona del euro de bonos bancarios.
Hay una carrera contra el tiempo. El tiempo ha ganado ya. Lo que nos enseñan como logros son burdas máscaras detrás de las que  se adivina muecas de tensión y angustia. Mañana, nueva valoración de los mercados (que hoy han acabado a la baja) y nuevas muecas y máscaras, seguro.
