Are the Wheels Starting to Fall Off of European Cart?

Econintersect Eurocrisis News Digest:  Spain’s ability to borrow at reasonable rates hit a wall today with treasury auctions hitting near record levels for short term debt.  It’s long term financing is already at record levels since Spain joined the Euro.

Spanish five-year government bond yields rose above 10-year yields which is an indication the market sees a growing default risk.  Contagion to Italy remains, but the big blow came from Moody’s yesterday:

Moody’s Investors Service has today revised to negative from stable the outlooks on the Aaa sovereign ratings of Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. In addition, Moody’s has also affirmed Finland’s Aaa rating and stable outlook.

All four sovereigns are adversely affected by the following two euro-area-wide developments:

1.) The rising uncertainty regarding the outcome of the euro area debt crisis given the current policy framework, and the increased susceptibility to event risk stemming from the increased likelihood of Greece’s exit from the euro area, including the broader impact that such an event would have on euro area members, particularly Spain and Italy.

2.) Even if such an event is avoided, there is an increasing likelihood that greater collective support for other euro area sovereigns, most notably Spain and Italy, will be required. Given the greater ability to absorb the costs associated with this support, this burden will likely fall most heavily on more highly rated member states if the euro area is to be preserved in its current form.

These increased risks, in combination with the country-specific considerations discussed below, have prompted the changes in the rating outlooks of Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. In contrast, Finland’s unique credit profile, as discussed below, remains consistent with a stable rating outlook.
