希腊问题又该息一息了（VIX？）

欧盟的德国就和美国的象党一样

英国《卫报》(Guardian)周五报导，迫于国际货币基金组织(International Monetary Fund, 简称IMF)的强大压力，德国已同意向希腊提供救助，这已是一年中的第二次。IMF自总裁多米尼克•斯特劳斯－卡恩(Dominique Strauss-Kahn)上月辞职以来一直向德国施加压力。

《卫报》称，IMF在美籍代理执行董事John Lipsky的领导下已采取了更为强硬的立场。该报还表示，IMF最近几周警告德国，除非德国政府不再拖延，并明确承诺向希腊提供救助，否则IMF将拒绝提供急需的资金，从而引发希腊主权债务违约。

《卫报》还表示，正在布鲁塞尔召开会议的高级官员和外交人员证实，鉴于德国做出妥协，IMF停止提供救助资金的威胁得到化解。IMF在此事上的强硬立场与卡恩的温和路线截然相反。

据希腊国家电视台NET周四报导，希腊总理乔治•帕潘德里欧(George Papandreou)将于周五早间宣布大范围的内阁重组。

FOX Business: The Power to Prosper

Stock futures followed global markets sharply higher, and the dollar dipped, after Germany and France backed a new aid package for Greece.

Today's Markets

As of 7:57 a.m. ET, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures jumped 106 points to 12,005, S&P 500 futures climbed 13.3 points to 1,277 and Nasdaq 100 futures gained 19.5 points to 2,215.

Greece has taken the spotlight, along with U.S. economic data, in the last several sessions amid concerns the embattled country might have to restructure or default on its debt. Such a debt event, analysts say, could cause disruptions in debt markets in the euro zone and potentially even abroad.

In the short-term, aid from the euro zone and the International Monetary Fund would help the country make payments on its bonds, staving off a debt event.  There have been debates, however, among possible lenders over the specifications of such a deal.  

In what Wall Street has seen a stabilizing move, Germany and France said Friday morning they would back a new aid package for Greece based on the so-called "Vienna initiative," which was created in 2009 to help Central European banks moderate exposure during the financial crisis.

The euro bounced higher by 0.46% against the U.S. dollar and the greenback slumped 0.35% against a basket of world currencies.

On the U.S. front, a report on consumer sentiment from early June is on tap for 9:55 a.m. ET.  The Reuters/University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment index is expected to have ticked slightly lower to 74 from 74.3 at the end of May.

Retailers like Target (TGT: 46.45, -0.26, -0.56%) can be particularly affected by these data.

On the corporate front, Research in Motion (RIMM: 35.33, +0.16, +0.45%) posted a nearly 10% drop in its fiscal-fist quarter earnings, announced layoffs and said its current-quarter and full-year profits would come in well below Wall Street's expectations.  The BlackBerry maker has seen increased competition from companies like Apple (AAPL: 325.16, -1.59, -0.49%), which makes the popular iPhone and iPad.

Energy markets were broadly lower despite a weakening U.S. dollar.

Light, sweet crude dropped $1.28, or 1.3%, to $93.68 a barrel.  Wholesale RBOB gasoline was down 2 cents, or 0.78%, to $2.93 a gallon.

Gasoline prices on the consumer level continue inching lower.  A gallon of regular gas costs $3.68 on average nationwide, down from $3.93 last month, but well higher than the $2.71 last year, according to the AAA Fuel Gauge Report.

In metals, gold was off $1.40, or 0.09%, to $1,529 a tory ounce.  Silver slipped 16 cents, or 0.4%, to $35.41 a troy ounce.

Foreign Markets

The English FTSE 100 gained 0.32% to 5,717, the French CAC 40 jumped 1.1% to 3,833 and the German DAX soared 1.2% to 7,199.

In Asia, the Japanese Nikkei 225 was down 0.64% to 9,351 and the Chinese Hang Seng plummeted 1.2% to 21,695.

IS this a real deal or just another BS?

Private sector voluntary in the debt restructuring,  who will voluntarily accept a deep hair cut? Any Europe private banks will go to the table? I really doubt it.

This news is just another sand bag.

Greek Reshuffle Fails to Boost Confidence: Official

Greece's hasty cabinet reshuffle has failed to boost confidence both domestically and internationally in the ability of the Greeks to help themselves out of the deepening debt crisis, Konstantinos Michalos, president, Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry, told CNBC Friday.

On Friday, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou appointed Defence Minister Evangelos Venizelor to run the Finance Ministry, replacing the unpopular George Papaconstantinou who was moved to lead the Environment Ministry.

The new government has 40 members and only three are new ministers following the reshuffle, while others were just moved to other positions, Michalos pointed out.

“We were assured that the actual government policy is on the right track, what purpose is served by assigning individuals to new departments that have failed in their previous mission?" he said.

“That’s why I am very pessimistic that these new measures will be passed and even if they are passed by a slight majority on Sunday evening the Prime Minister will seek a vote of confidence in the Greek Parliament, it would be very difficult with the situation as it is at the moment to be implemented,” Michalos added.

The protests came as the IMF agreed to a new bailout in exchange for further austerity measures. A program of spending cuts and tax increases put in place a year ago in May has been deeply unpopular with the Greek people.

“How can the PM who two days ago agreed with the leader of the opposition that the terms of the austerity package should be renegotiated with both our EU partners and the IMF suddenly make a 180 degree turn and seek a vote of confidence in two days based on the original austerity package put forward by the Troika?" Michalos said.

"We are living through a political saga which is running the danger of turning into a Greek tragedy and this must end, it must do so immediately,” he added.

Early elections are the only way out as the reshuffle is just changing the politicians around, Michalos said.

Austerity Measures Not Working

“The economic and political mixture of the reforms must be discussed again, we must re-negotiate," Michalos said.

"As the saying goes you can’t keep milking a cow without feeding it and this is exactly what’s happening in Greece." "We need a united political front to combat and negotiate better terms for Greek society and ultimately secure the interests of the EU but foremost ensure the financial normality of the global economy.

The danger of a systemic collapse is around the corner, so everyone is aware of it and ready to play their cards right,” he said.

Mario Monti, former EU Commissioner, also said that the political crisis was central to the resolution of Greece’s financial woes.

“This is a problem which needs to be dealt with politically by each member state," Monti said. "It's clear that not all the consequences of balancing a single currency have been thought of. The large member states need Greece to work. The whole problem politically in Greece is, should the private sector also participate in austerity?" he said.
