Disclaimer & comment rulesthe arg robberment under the ck gang is violating contracts with their debtors since 14 years.
May 12th, 2015 - 09:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0kic-ill is member of the robberment gang and the poodle of ck, barking what she is telling him to say.
Politics aside it is outside of Gresia's juristriction, so NML don't have a case.
May 12th, 2015 - 09:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0They arre not going to see a cent until next year
2. Its not this transaction they're really interested in, its the next one where they have to re-fi in Sept. NML is sending out a warning shot to the Int'l banks that they'll get caught up in this mess if they help Arg in the transaction.
May 12th, 2015 - 10:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0This transaction was tiny the next one isn't so small and if they can't re-fi they will have to declare default.
That's the game

May 12th, 2015 - 11:26 am - Link - Report abuse 0I would expect the matter to hopeful be resolved with due speed so forward progress can commence, to go beyond still would be better for all.

One would normally assume when investing in Investment Companies that your return would be in dollars and not embarrassing humour....
Please inform us of the yield in dollars so far after a decade...you might want to calculate in cents....
“stinging attack” indeed! LOL.

Well we shall just have to await Gresia's ruling on the matter.
May 12th, 2015 - 05:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 0However even if he rules in favour of Singer & Co, it’s difficult to see what could be done about bonds already now issued in Argentina.
@2. Did you notice that the motion was filed by Aurelius Capital? Have you found a filing by NML?
May 12th, 2015 - 06:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@12. YB would need to comment on this. Let's go this way. Suppose that Griesa rules that the Bonar 24 bonds are covered by his current rulings. In other words, argieland cannot legally make any payments on these bonds unless it pays the hold-outs first. Every financial institution throughout the world is 'advised' that assisting argieland is a breach of Griesa's order. It has been shown, on more than one occasion, that Griesa's reach is far longer than argieland could conceive. Notice the tenor of the headbanger's statement. Total desperation. Let's wait and see what Griesa has to say.
12. If there were Int'l bank involved he could demand they claw back the funds from the purchasers.
May 12th, 2015 - 07:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 010. I told you last week Elliot management returned 14.5%net annualized return to their investors. A very very good return. Are you going to ask again next week? BTW the funds under management are friends and family. He's beholden to no one but himself.
Suck it up loser.
General head-scratching all round at this meeting held by the Atlantic Council in Washington earlier today. The Dutch banker cannot understand why Arg didn't settle with the holdouts out of Court before Griesa made the ruling. The best bit is around 49 minutes in where the whole room is having a good laugh at Arg expense. Watch the Arg ambassador squirm. Priceless ;-D

The vultures want the Argentine money, but they also want to show what they can do to a defiant country. So the fight is as much political as it is economical.
May 12th, 2015 - 11:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0However, the Argentine government's resistance is showing its citizens that it is possible to oppose rapacious financiers and their friends.
It has been almost a year since the worldwide media, opponents domestic and foreign were singing praise for Judge Griesa and thought the country would be on its knees and forced to cave in to the vultures' demands.
Instead, the country has gone about its business, found new partners and getting capital through creative ways.
The opposition, which was howling that Argentina had no alternative but to pay the vultures a year ago, has understood the unpopularity of their position, becoming silent on the matter.
The more NML and Aurelius try, the more they better the position of the Victory Front. Keep trying guys.
Singer etal have already made their stake back PLUS all their venture capital cost by shorting all things rotting roadkill as they drove the economy into a downward spiral.

Paul lives well.
rotting roadkilians currently just survive.
Reekie, Are the rise in kidnappings the fault of the “neo-liberal” policies of the 90s?

I wonder if there will be a repeat of 5 Prez in a week after they realize how big of a mess the Kthugs have left the gov't.
I hope they have street fighting.
I really do.
It fun to watch when Statism fails.
and it always does

Further proof that US business people are much, much smarter than Argentine politicians.
