Greece Still Defiant After ECB Mugging: Some brief updates, with more on Monday. http://bit.ly/1xzaXpJ
"If the ECB triggers a bank run in Greece, government would likely resort to capital controls, seek bilateral funding outside euro system."
Nonsense... "The #ECB move I confidently predict, will precipitate not just a run on Greek banks..." http://www.socialeurope.eu/2015/02/ecb-2/ @socialeurope
The 4th February late-night decision by the European Central Bank to reject Greek bank collateral for monetary policy operations will, I confidently predict, precipitate not just a run on Greek banks; not just greater price instability across the Eurozone – but ultimately, the collapse of the fantastic machinery that is the ‘self-regulating’ economy of the Eurozone.
