Before bed, just to give equal time to the always truthful and insightful governmental authorities, here's how the French Budget Minister sees it this morning (comments are forexlive's; not mine):

French banks have no solvency problems

Contradictory indications on Q3 economic growth

Greek PM said govt has will to meet commitments (I make that muckety muck number 2)

Euro zone bonds possibility after budget convergence (not this week then?)

Good night, or pleasant morning, as it may be.

Check the Philly today after that massive disappointment last time is the most important today as US unemployment claims looks to a sluggish on expectation numbers. Don't expect much from Trichet as is a forum/pre made speech and not an announcement

On other FA notes, after yesterday soup opera, Greece CDS "only" are up 1.5% and the 10,5,2 are trading barely higher...so nothing changed as expected except stock markets in happy mode rallying on air....
