La fase propulsiva sui nostri ellenici va esaurendosi mentre rimane su valori stabili, da almeno quattro sedute, il range di oscillazione.

Ieri da segnalare il buon esito dell'asta dei Bot/Greek trimestrali che, oltre al solito bid/cover elevato, ha fatto registrare un nuovo calo degli interessi pagati al 3,75%. E' passata inoltre al 50% la percentuale degli investitori esteri che si sono aggiudicati i titoli.

Nel frattempo arrivano altre indiscrezioni intorno al risultato definitivo sul rapporto debito/Pil del 2009 che andrebbe ad assestarsi intorno al 15,5% con un indebitamento complessivo intorno al 125% circa.

Il Ministro delle Finanze Papaconstantinou ha affermato che nonostante i dati negativi l'obiettivo concordato con la Troika sarà comunque centrato: probabilmente, dopo le elezioni locali, ci sarà qualche nuova misura impositiva.

Intanto giungono nuovi fondi freschi dal Fondo di Assistenza Sociale Europeo per 2,6 MLD che andranno a favore dell'occupazione. Come abbiamo detto più volte senza crescita e stabilità sociale non ci può essere risanamento. Questi vanno nella giusta direzione.

Sul resto del Club Med soffiano echi weberiani con euribor ai massimi livelli, ne fanno le spese dopo i recuperi delle scorse giornate Irlanda e Portogallo.
A Dublino giungono le parole di Weber sulle ipotesi di fallimenti bancari mentre a Lisbona si attende il via libera del Parlamento sui provvedimenti del Governo.
Rimangono stabili Spagna e Italia sui cedimenti del Bund.

Grecia 666 pb. (657)
Irlanda 391 pb. (368)
Portogallo 331 pb. (319)
Spagna 163 pb. (163)

EU chief urges Macedonia to settle name dispute with Greece



08:39, October 20, 2010



The EU president on Tuesday urged Macedonia to settle a long-running name dispute with neighboring Greece to clear its way to join the club, reports from Skopje said.

Herman Van Rompuy said at a joint press conference with Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski in Skopje, capital city of Macedonia, that a swift settlement of the name issue can open the EU door to Macedonia.

Van Rompuy also reaffirmed that the EU supports the process for settling name dispute between Skopje and Athens.

"The EU is not part of the (name) negotiating process, but I believe there is great opportunity for its swift settlement. This opportunity, which will finally open the European door, should not be missed," Van Rompuy said.

Macedonia and Greece are locked in a 19-year-long dispute over the use of the name of Macedonia.

Athens insists that Macedonia's name implies territorial claims against its own northern province, also called Macedonia.

In December last year, the EU postponed the decision to grant Skopje the much desired date for start of its accession talks due to the unresolved name issue.

In 2008 Greece also blocked Macedonia from entering NATO over the same dispute.

Van Rompuy praised Macedonia for the progress it had made on its way to join the European Union. At the same time, he called on Macedonian authorities to maintain the reform pace.

"The EU is a strong supporter of European integration of this country, and the support is accompanied with our expectations for maintaining the pace of the reform process," said Van Rompuy.

Van Rompuy arrived in Skopje as part of his Balkan tour, which will also take him to Montenegro, Bosnia and Albania.

Israel-Greece Ties Warm as Relations with Turkey Chill


by Maayana Miskin



As Israel's ties to Turkey remain distant, ties with Greece are growing warmer. Greek Foreign Minister Dimitris Droutsas was in Israel this Monday to meet with Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and sign an aviation treaty.

In July, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu announced that Israel and Greece would undergo “a major upgrade of relations.” He spoke as Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou visited Israel in the first visit by a sitting Greek prime minister in decades.

Both Israel and Greece have denied a connection between Israel's strained ties with once-friendly Turkey and its newfound friendship with Greece. Droutsas stated that there was no competition between Greek's ties to Israel and its relationship to Turkey. “Each of these relationships has its own dynamic,” he said. Greece and Turkey fought over control of Cyprus and an uneasy truce exists between the two since 1974 with relations sometimes warming and sometimes at crisis level.

As the two signed the aviation agreement, Lieberman expressed hope that stronger ties between the two countries would be helpful “not only for this country, but the whole region.” During his term in office to date Lieberman has sought to forge new ties, reaching out to South America, southwest Asia, and other parts of the globe sometimes overlooked by Israel's diplomats.

Israel's ties with Turkey began deteriorating when Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan took office. Erdogan harshly condemned Israeli counterterror operations in Gaza, and allowed Turkish media to broadcast video clips with an extreme anti-Israel message.

In May, the Turkish government encouraged members of the terrorist group IHH to set sail for Gaza in defiance of Israel's naval ban on Hamas, along with many other foreign activists. IHH members attacked IDF commandos who took control of their ship off the coast of Gaza, leading to a battle in which nine Turkish citizens were killed. Following the clash, Turkey's leaders froze ties with Israel.

Israeli tourism to Turkey, previously the most popular site for vacations and backpacking for Israelis of all ages and economic levels because of its proximity, has dropped by an estimated 90 percent. Tourism industry workers say that many Israelis are now traveling to Greece instead.

..e magari ieri non hai pagato nemmeno il rateo..?!?:)
Si tratta di ironia; certo che ho pagato il rateo l'altro ieri ed intascato la corrispondente cedola ieri. Il piccolo gain è connesso ai fortunosi tempi di acquisto/vendita... ma stiamo parlando di circa 1/2 pb.

Come ho già scritto non ero convinto dell'operazione e piuttosto che tenermi un bond che mal sopportavo in PRT a quel pmc ho preferito vendere e, semmai, ritornare sul titolo quando avro' idee piu' chiare sui periferici.

Greece and China sign tourist cooperation protocol


ANA-MPa/Culture and Tourism Minister Pavlos Geroulanos signed a Cooperation Protocol on Tuesday with the Vice President of China's National Tourism Authority and head of the Chinese delegation Jiang Du, regarding mutual action in a series of fields in the tourist sector and know-how exchanges in the sector of tourist training and preparation.


The two sides agreed, among other things, to encourage the start of direct air linkage between the two countries and to strengthen on both sides cooperation between tourist businessmen, cultural agencies and journalistic missions.


The Chinese delegation showed particular interest in participation in the "Cultures Crossroads 2013" in Thessaloniki, where China will be the theme country and committed itself to backing the institution with a considerable presence.


Special reference was made to the Greek state's considerable efforts to facilitate Chinese visitors during the visa issuing process.

FinMin: No additional measures


BRUSSELS (ANA-MPA/Maria Aroni) - Greek Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou on Tuesday said that an anticipated upward revision of the country's fiscal deficit and debt would not lead to the adoption of further harsh austerity measures by the government.


Speaking to reporters after an Ecofin meeting in Luxembourg, the Greek minister said a Eurogroup meeting on Monday discussed the condition of Eurozone's economies, including Greece, and noted the positive climate prevailing both in the European Commission and the European Central Bank, which jointly welcomed the government's efforts to restructure the Greek economy. "These efforts are acknowledged by markets," Papaconstantinou said, while he underlined the very low interest rate (3.75 pct) of a three-month Treasury bills auction.

He underlined that an upward revision of Greek statistics was expected while he noted that cooperation between the Community and Greek statistics services was fully satisfactory, as acknowledged by Brussels. He added that the biggest problem currently was revising the fiscal condition of the country in the period 2006-2009 and integrating debt piled by loss-making public sector enterprises.



Papaconstantinou said he expected this procedure to be completed by the end of the week and that Eurostat would be able to publish a final report by mid-November, ahead of a vote in Parliament of a state budget for 2011. He said the government's main goal was to have a full certification of statistics by Eurostat, an issue of great significance to markets.
