The result of the german chancellor's recent comments which she has since re-iterated, that bond holders should share some of the costs in the event of defaults, had the effect of increasing the Irish sovereign bond yields even further. However on the other hand, it would appear that one of the main reasons we are "voluntarily" bailing out our domestic banks is so that the vast sums of money owed to german bondholders (banks) is repaid in full. Surely what she is suggesting would entail a default mainly at the expense of her own banks, or is this some future proposal she intends to take effect only after they've got all their money back? .. can anyone shed some light on this?
