  18. A Different Type of Pitch • “When there is blood in the streets, buy” • Baron Rothschild • Items to consider: • Long-term potential v. short-term distortions • Market expectations • This is a two-part pitch

  19. Thesis • Markets are expecting highly unlikely worst case scenarios • German fundamentals remain strong in the long run • Shorting European financials provides downside protection

  20. Analysis of European Banks • Concerns of Europe’s banks have been simmering in the background • Unstable support system • Sovereign default could overwhelm these bank’s capital reserves • Sovereign debt is not the only concern • “Stressed country debt”

  21. Unstable Support System • Capital concerns amidst a widening debt crisis and slow growth • IMF projects a potential of €300 billion (about $409 billion) in losses for European Banks • Christine Lagarde calls for “urgent recapitalization” • How will banks secure capital? • Lenders do not want to take more exposure to Europe • Downgrade of SocGen and Credit Agricole • Policy makers in denial

  22. Sovereign Default • If Greece fails to secure its next tranche of aid • Likely hood is lower than before • By far the worst case scenario • Stress tests in July omitted default scenario • Added pressure for banks to raise capital fast • Institutions could require a bailout

  23. Foreign claims of banks from the U.S., U.K., Germany and France Source: Bank of International Settlements

  24. Stressed Country Debit • Sovereign Debit is not the only debit exposure • Other areas of concern • Commercial mortgages • Residential mortgages • Corporate debt • Makes situation more complicated • Policy makers must balance fiscal deficit (good for sovereign debit) reform and economic growth reform

  25. Exchange Rates • Rate one currency is exchanged for another • 1.3562 EUR/USD • Determine price of imports/exports • Ex: Germany large exporter • Affect the realized return on an investment • Currency risk • Fluctuate with uncertainty and fear of Default contagion in Europe

  26. Flight to Quality • Shift from Euro to US dollar denominated assets in debt crisis

  27. Currency Upside

  28. Earlier News • Only Greece, (2% of Eurozone GDP) • Single bailout • Other countries within debt limits (3%)

  29. Changes • Dramatic spread beyond Greece • Banking sector affected • Default became possible • Awareness • ESM

  30. Political Incentives • Troika • International • Protests in Greece • Perception of Euro Countries • Protests in Germany • Elections

  31. The ESM • Replacement of ESFS • Germany: from 210 to 119 billion • Total Volume: 440 billion • Enough Cash to Prevent „Domino“ Effect • Germany passed the law today with an absolute majority

  32. German Economics • (Globally) Export oriented • Composition of DAX • Financial Sector may be Volatile • German Debt • Comparison to USA/USD

  33. Worst Case Scenario • 50% Refinancing of Greek debt • ESM prevents collapse of Eurozone • German Economy not dependent • Volume of Eurozone GDP v.s. Debt

  34. Quantitative Justification • Debt dynamic equation: • ΔD/Y(t) = (r-g/1+g)*D(t-1) – PB/Y(t), • Explanation: • r is the 10-year real Treasury yield • g is the real GDP growth rate • D/Y is debt-to-GDP ratio and • PB/Y is the primary balance as a share of GDP. • Primary Balance: Government net borrowing or net lending excluding interest payments on consolidated government liabilities.
