‘MAYHEM” IN EUROZONE SOVEREIGN DEBT….

Via Warren Mosler.  No comment needed although I will add that I have talked to a few people based in Europe who told me that they were seeing a decent bid in Netherlands and German Bunds today.  Regardless, I think the sentiments Warren passes along are representative of growing concerns in the region and explain exactly why we’re seeing the yields blowout in Belgium, France, Spain, etc:

Our Trading Desk reports “mayhem” in the AAA Eurozone markets
– France 11bps wider
– Netherlands 6bps wider
France now 178bps over Germany
