Debt Deal Yields More Debt: Dave's Daily
Posted by sebihp2007 189 days ago (http://www.thestreet.com)
If the founders could only see what's happening now they'd be disgusted and mighty pissed off! This is hardly a market headline now is it? Well, you won't see it anywhere else but my sense is most people are feeling as Father George would feel right now.
We did, or are getting, the debt ceiling relief everyone was worried and fixated upon. We'll get a vote in the Congress after 6-7 PM EDT.

We are coming to the end of the road for debt talks in both the U.S. and Europe. French president Sarkozy has flown to Berlin trying to convince the Germans to go along with a new "emergency" fund PIGS and others could tap into to avoid default.

Failure to Reach Debt Deal Could Be Good
Posted by alexautin 207 days ago (http://www.thestreet.com)
By Jeff Cox, CNBC.com Staff Writer
NEW YORK (CNBC) -- Failing to raise the U.S. debt ceiling could have at least one desirable casualty: the bond vigilantes who are betting that Congress will keep on racking up debt with endless abandon.
Much panic has been fomented over what would happen if the borrowing limit stays put, but little focus gets paid to what good could come of it.

Investors Fear Debt Drama: Dave's Daily

Good earnings from YUM Brands (YUM) and J.P. Morgan (JPM) couldn't trump worries about the DC debt drama and Bernanke's tossing cold water on QE3.
