Maybe this is “it”–from Murph tonight

This could be the hidden problem I mentioned yesterday

Right now Draghi has his hands tied by the Germans on his ability to monetize what appears to be a big problem fomenting in Greece.

I have always strongly believed that Greece and Cyprus were originally bailed out to prevent credit default swap derivatives from triggering, which I believe would set off the daisy chain of global bank counterparty risk.

Greek bond yields were inexplicably down to 5.50 in early September. I think that was in anticipation that bailout would happen. Now it looks like investors are getting nervous about that possibility.

If Greece were to default on its debt, I believe it would light a fuse that would set off a bigger derivatives explosion than occurred in 2008.
