   Basically, Commerzbank is pulling out of the Greek repo market due to the liquidity position imposed by the Greek Central bank. This is the exacerbation of the market freeze: there is no Greek repo market at present.

   “Ratings by private ratings agencies, long suspected of being in the pocket of Wall Street”

   The downgrade of Greek debt was initiated by Fitch, a French subsidiary, and indicated in the covered bond market of Greek banks. Wallstreet is a nebulous term I assume is meant to cover “American capitalism” as opposed to “European Keynesian Capitalism” and is used in a completely falacious way here by Brown.

   Wake me up when DJIA reaches 1400 USD, as that is its natural location …

   Otherwise I view most sharmarket news as a botheration.

   I suspect that the NZSX and AUSX not to be perturbed by such an event, albeit with the circuit breakers set up in the US this downturn would take about 3 weeks.

   What they need to do is come up with a derivative insurance that will payoff on all soon-to-be imploded ponzi derivative schemes. However who has 1.5 Quadrillion dollars? Maybe they should settle for Gulf coast beach property? There’ oil in them there shrimp!
