Yellen Speaks on Wednesday.
German 10-year bund yields have dropped by 95 basis points to a mere .01% today. The European Central Bank has moved from buying $1 trillion of sovereign European debt to purchasing European corporate debt, pushing the average yield on European investment grade debt below 1%.
These low yields are making it impossible for European banks and insurance companies to make money. And investors are panicking.
Today, we're seeing the worst two-week drop in European banks in over four years. Deutsche Bank is down to record lows, trading well below $16.
......NO, A BAIL IN ON BONDS WOULD BE A PANNIC.
