The Greek Bailout Explained!

​It is a slow day in a little Greek Village. The rain is beating down and the streets are deserted.

Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.

On this particular day a rich German tourist is driving through the village, stops at the local hotel and lays a €100 note on the desk, telling the hotel owner he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night.

The owner gives him some keys and, as soon as the visitor has walked upstairs, the hotelier grabs the €100 note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the €100 note and runs down the street to repay his debt to the pig farmer.

The pig farmer takes the €100 note and heads off to pay his bill at the supplier of feed and fuel.

The guy at the Farmers' Co-op takes the €100 note and runs to pay his drinks bill at the taverna.

The publican slips the money along to the local prostitute drinking at the bar, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer him "services" on credit.

The hooker then rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill to the hotel owner with the €100 note.

The hotel proprietor then places the €100 note back on the counter so the rich traveller will not suspect anything.

At that moment the traveller comes down the stairs, picks up the €100 note, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, pockets the money, and leaves town.

No one produced anything.

No one earned anything.

However, the whole village is now out of debt and looking to the future with a lot more optimism.

And that is how the bailout package works!

I think I get it now ha :)

You forgot the epilogue to the story.
Roll forward one year and the whole village is in debt and misery again, and waiting for the German tourist to come back. ;)
 
Dow held at 17950, not being allowed below this point, (I assume until after the 5pm chart print).

Dax also suspended in mid air. Cannot go below 11480.

Long live free markets. (China take note this is how you do it).
 
Dow can afford to drop a little now, 17960 was the hourly chart close. :whistling

You over think it Postman.

Do you believe the yanks care about the European close for one minute?

I might subscribe to a bit of fun and games on the overnights but that's mostly s/b guys having fun.

I was thinking of their 5pm Dow Hourly chart and making it look good.

Are you sure you didnt overthink your S&P weekly guesses.
