Headline:
EU reaches agreement on Greek bonds

Closing paragraph:

Pierre Gave, head of research at Gavekal, a Hong Kong-based research group, said the Greek deal was “big on words but short on detail”.

“To me it seems like we don’t really have a lot of detail. What is this, the 14th meeting in the last 20 months? I think it’s just more of the same. Europe is going to continue to muddle through but we won’t know the end-game until a year or two from now, whether we will move towards a full-scale fiscal federation or whether we will move to a breakdown of the euro experiment.”

Result:
Markets rocket toward the stratosphere

The Rube Goldberg nature of this agreement is almost beyond belief -- except that
nothing is beyond belief these days.

These so called "financial experts" have less sense of probability than a half-blind sot shooting craps in a skidrow alley. OTOH, they are using other people's money and do have "get-away-cars".
