Big U.S. bank may be betting on Greek bankruptcy in 11 days

Bankingnews.gr has disclosed something interesting.

According to the Greek website, an account, allegedly a large US bank, has been dumping, in what it classified as "panic selling", its holdings of a 10 Year GGB maturing on April 20, 2010, or in 11 days.

What is unclear is whether the bank has been trading for its own account or for a client. What is clear, is that the seller is certainly not too convinced that the bond will see a repayment of principal when it matures, in other words believes that Greece will go bankrupt...
