VanEck's way to say "we need bonds can you pls dump in more decent size"?

Veny:
“The IMF may forecast an economic reality materially worse than the market prices,” said David Austerweil, emerging-markets deputy portfolio manager at VanEck in New York. “The lack of up to date audited data for investors to value bonds with has allowed the market to price an optimistic scenario for haircut and exit yield. We still believe it’s a compelling investment opportunity, but prices have run far ahead of our near term scenarios.”

| Let us say the persians were empire builders for thousands of years, whilst the arabs were invaders that locally mainly engaged in camel herding..but the arabs had good maths.. until the XII century.. |

They are not. One has oil the other drones.

I would say that probably the surviving iranian thugs are.. pragmatists, under a veil of rhetoric.
They have a weak hand, militarily, despite claims of the opposite, so they can contemplate make concessions and taking commitments they will refrain from honouring in the future, if circumstances allow..
or maybe, getting out from the "for of war" maimed, their system will collapse on its own.
who knows? |

es muy lamentable que el extremismo venezolano se dio a la tarea de visitar capitales de Europa y otros países para tratar de impedir este paso tan importante para nuestra economía

would you stamp & seal the second sentence with no confirmation of regime change

No ... and there has been a permanent change in sentiment and judgement about business in that region. Same goes for Dubai which will never be quite the same again. |

Vic, open like "open right now" is not same as "we'll never use it as a weapon again", would you stamp & seal the second sentence with no confirmation of regime change?
Now, if a regime change actually occurred, a historical win goes to DJT and he deserves all the credit. |

The report points out how Iran used decentralized forces during the conflict and to close the Strait, with small boats leading the operations to mine the waterway, and without a clear command chain on how to do it.
These make the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's main oil waterways, through which 20% of global consumption passes, almost impossible to transit.
The officials call the mining of the Strait an action carried out "haphazardly," with intelligence indicating that Iran doesn't have a clear idea of where each mine was placed.

we are never going back to consider Hormuz "open", investments will be made on alternatives.

Agree - it was just more bloviating by Trump. Insurance and bond markets decide if something is open or not and the risk premia there has changed. |

Vic, imo we are never going back to consider Hormuz "open", investments will be made on alternatives.
A regime change in Iran to a more moderate could be the best outcome, people endured too much pain already, and IRGC has not even collected salary for weeks.
If something like that happens, DT won't receive any credit, but he would have solved a max. level threat in the region. |

Hezboolah
//
The U.S.A. will get all Nuclear “Dust,” created by our great B2 Bombers - No money will exchange hands in any way, shape, or form. This deal is in no way subject to Lebanon, either, but the USA will, separately, work with Lebanon, and deal with the Hezboolah situation in an appropriate manner. Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer. They are PROHIBITED from doing so by the U.S.A. Enough is enough!!! Thank you! President DJT |

Caracas.- La presidenta encargada de Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, denunció este jueves que sectores extremistas del país intentaron obstaculizar la normalización de los vínculos entre Venezuela y el Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI).
“Es muy lamentable, tengo que decirlo responsablemente, es muy lamentable que el extremismo venezolano se dio a la tarea de visitar capitales de Europa y otros países para tratar de impedir este paso tan importante para nuestra economía”, manifestó la Mandataria Encargada.
