Bobbys Corner-Open Market-Nov.22.2010

bob-slade-forex-2-150x200Good Morning:

The Irish debt issue is the top story this Monday morning. Ireland is the second EU nation that needs to be officially “rescued” by the IMF and European Union-thus stopping a run on their banks hopefully.  Moody’s stated that they may need to lower Irish debt more than anticipated, as the aid plan may actually increase Irish debt in the short term.  The ECB bought Irish bonds today, and we will most probably see an increase in sovereign bond purchases.

European equity markets are lower-as are US Futures at this time, as the Irish debt problem seeks it’s way into the equity markets.. Concerns that the spreading of the Irish debt issue will spread to other EU countries are weighing heavily on the markets.

Moody’s says Ireland debt likely to decrease

Posted: 22 Nov 2010 04:06 AM PST

They said, according to Bloomberg, that Ireland likely faces a multi-notch downgrade.  The current Moody’s rating is Aa2.  A downgrade would still leave Ireland in the investment grade range.
