Let’s play a game. It’s called “You know things are bad when

Let’s play a game. It’s called “You know things are bad when…”. I’ll go first, you know things are bad when people are willing to loan their hard earned money for free (virtually) just to be “safe”. That’s what happened yesterday when Germany unleashed €4.56 billion ($5.8 billion) worth of 2-year bonds that offered – get this -  a zero percent coupon and an average yield of .07%. The bond issue of yesterday, and its popularity among investors, underscores the growing concern surround the Eurozone debt crisis and the potential for Greece to pull the ejection handle leaving the rest of the region, and those financially exposed to it, holding the proverbial bag. 

First-time unemployment numbers dipped by 2,000 last week according to the Labor department but the fact that HP announced 27,000 job cuts world-wide pretty much makes that a moot point. Look for markets to thin-out across the financial landscape as we head into the Memorial Day weekend. However, if you get bored you can always tune into the unfolding Facebook scandal.
