Yield Curve Basics

Filed under: Fiscal & Monetary Policies — 1 Comment

May 10, 2012

I do not know why but somebody wanted me to define some basics on Yield spreads, that whether Yield spreads can judge the risk environment in an economy ?

Yield spreads are good tools to judge the risk environment in an economy a lower yield spread means that the issuer of debt is in a situation to demand loans at a lower spread above the yield of government security which in turn shows the presence of ample liquidity.

As far as economic growth is concerned a lower yield spread indicates greater amount of liquidity available for growth View full article »

More on Prop Trader & Emerging-markets

Filed under: Economies, Efficient Markets, Trending Brokers — Leave a comment

April 6, 2012

Takings from my last post A Prop Trader or Rogue Trader and my past posts on the same topic The Rogue Trader or The Rogue Banks and TO BE A ROGUE TRADER would like to share few more views over them. As I reveled in the past that prop trader don’t trade on behalf of clients but they use institution own money to trade.They speculate and their focus are is emerging markets.

The two principles on which they work :

You need to be dispassionate about your trade, to control your internal hurdles that may attach you to it emotionally.

You need to have specific knowledge of the asset you’re trading. You must have contacts in the asset’s country that can supply you with information that is open to anyone else (otherwise it’s insider trading) but that is still extremely valuable.

Greece Again “Default already and get it over with. God this is tiring.”

Filed under: Economies, Financial Crisis — 4 Comments

March 7, 2012

To start with yesterday western markets tumbled and today morning Asia trading in the red. The ghost of greek debt default could wreak $1-trillion damage on euro-zone.

Stocks down, gold down, oil down, copper down, EU periphery debt down. The day is shaping up to be the worst for risk thus far in 2012.

The deal is turning on the screws, my last post on where ISDA Under criticism on GREECE indicates that Investors are under pressure to sign up to the deal, which will see them lose almost three-quarters of the value of their bonds.

Greece wants creditors who hold 90% or more of the debt to agree. If take-up falls below that but exceeds 75%, it is expected to force losses on those who do not willingly sign up, known as collective action clauses (CACs). View full article »

Europe is Freezing !! Defrost needed for Greece soon

Filed under: Economies, Financial Crisis — 1 Comment

February 8, 2012

Yesterday Merkel quoted all EURO countries must contribute to fight the crisis, seems too bad all but Germany are broke, she also said that European nations will need to cede more power to EU and back to feudalism.Now the ball is in the Greece court.

A new proposal by ECB was that, ECB would tender its bonds in to Greek debt exchange and would help greek to achieve to save approx 11 billion Euros. The condition holds true is that ECB has approx 50 billion euro of Greek bonds, so that will allow Greece to have 39 billion euro of debt instead of 50 billion euro, saving approximately 11 billion euros.

* It’s a make-or-break week for Europe. They say that every week…The EU has more rescue plans than Obama has vacation days.

* If you can only be good at one thing, be good at lying… Because if you’re good at lying, you’re good at everything.

* I feel like this economy has really hit the average-looking girls the hardest.

* Others may hate you. But those who hate you don’t win unless you hate them. Then you destroy yourself.

India joining the bandwagon stands with Japan, China and Russia

Filed under: Economies — 2 Comments

January 23, 2012

Press Trust of India confirmed that “India and Iran have agreed to settle some of their $12 billion annual oil trade in rupees, resorting to the restricted currency after more than a year of payment problems in the face of fresh, tougher U.S. sanctions.”

This is with response to few weeks when the US and Europe pretended that all is well .For anyone wondering how the abandonment of the dollar reserves status would look like reference, not with a bang, but a whimper or in this case a whole series of bilateral agreements that quietly seeks to remove the US currency as an intermediate.

As it looks prominent the world’s second China and third largest Japan economies will bypass the dollar by engaging them self in the direct currency trade, and few weeks back there was a bilateral contract between China and Russia where they drop dollar as a currency and involved in direct currency trade.

Hoola ISDA : Eastman Kodak default and the Bonds trading 27% higher compared with GREECE :-

Filed under: Financial Crisis — 2 Comments

January 20, 2012

ISDA :- The International Swaps and derivative association announced that a Bankruptcy credit event has occurred in respect to Eastman Kodak Company,

The committee determined that the auction would be held with respect to outstanding transactions. ISDA Credit Report

It seems to be a mockery where I stands for ISDA I stands for Irrelevant or other even less flattering adjectives.

Which is great: apparently the default of Kodak will not lead to the end of the financial system as we know it. But we have a simply question: we would love if someone at ISDA would get back to us with the answer to the following rhetorical question:

If you analyse the benchmark Eastman Kodak 2 year bond, and which to a 2 year Greek bonds, which apparently, ISDA will never find in default. And also, why is the one found to be in a credit event trading 6 cents higher than the non-credit event one.
