Despite all the pats on the back from fellow EU political members and
reassurances that all will be well with political reforms, 10Y Spanish bond
spreads (the additional risk over German bunds that investors demand before
lending money to Spain) just hit all-time record highs. At over 580bps, we are
now we well above the pre-Euro era highs (remember focus on spread not yield
since Bund rates were so different back then - though current yields remain
above the 7% Maginot Line of unsustainability). Spain 10Y bond spreads are now
40bps wide of pre-Summit peak levels and 130bps wider than post-Summit kneejerk
reaction lows. But look at stocks and we know all is fixed in Europe...
