Investment Research General Market Conditions May Monitor Euro debt crisis watch The EURbn aid deal between Greece and the Eurogroup and IMF has brought some relief to markets. Especially the short maturity Greek bonds are rallying with a clear rub-off effect on other peripherals. The loan facility is by no means the end of the crisis, but the nature of the crisis is changing from short-term liquidity to longer-term solvency at least for Greece. One big question is if the liquidity concerns will move on to the next weakest link in line, Portugal. Another interesting market movement on the back of the debt crisis is the widening of the expected FRA/OIS spreads not only in Euroland but also in the US. This is also evident in the -year swap spreads. For more on the latest developments on a number of different markets, see the graphs on the following pages. We aim to update this publication regularly as the crisis unfolds depending on market movements.
