Fabrega was likely the last hope for Argentina before they do something even more stupid than making a mountain out of a mole hill. Throw a 50% export tax on soybeans and expect farmers to continue business as usual. Argentina has the natural resources to be doing as well as Australia, but they are determined to continually screw everyone else and themselves in the process.

CFK preaches to the Argentine masses while the rest of the world is bewildered or laughing.

It seems to me that CFK is the one who is "silly", but I guess that plays well to the Argentine masses.

It is too bad that Griesa cannot put some of the Argentine players in jail for contempt like he can for Americans. It will be interesting to see what happens if CFK or her cohorts travel to the USA.

Name one responsible Argentinean adult, ever. Even Borges fucked off at his job at the library (he was a 'gnocchi'), although he was good to his mother.

When will responsible adults stop acting like children?

Interesting anecdote. Now it makes sense why the only Kosher mcdonalds outside of Israel is located there. I always thought it was curiously random.

I thought that it was because of the neighborhood that it's in.

I was there one day and a tourist asked me to take a picture of him standing in front of the McDonald's but when I started to take the picture a security guard told me that I could not take any pictures.

I asked the guard if he had a gun and when he said "NO" I said "Fuck You" and took the picture anyway.

Like an English Cop would say "Stop or I'll say Stop Again! ".

Had to laugh!

Paranoid about someone blowing up the McDonald's I guess.

Including the Abasto Shopping center, which was for years a wholesale grocery market before he renovated and converted it into a modern shopping center.

Soros became a billionaire in BA and still owns a real estate empire in Argentina.

He came to BA with a US $100,000,000 line of credit and invented factoring outside of the Argentine banking system by creating financial cooperatives.

He left a billionaire.

This is what Argentina gets for writing such ridiculous bond terms. A good CAC would have put a stop to all this nonsense. Having said that. These funds better hurry up and negotiate while they still have the upper hand. Global opinion (not just hedge fund investors) is against them. And the voices are growing louder. IMF, WB, UN, EU, US State Department, UK courts, France, Germany, most well respected economists etc.

What the US governments opinion is on debt and default. As least as far as the US of A is concerned. Luckily we can just print our way out of default.

Argentina is willing to negotiate, BUT only if the New York ruling is stayed. I guess that Argentina also believes that pigs can fly.

Soros owns 3. 5 % or YPF (500 MM) and is clearly incented to clean up the "default" and clear the way for new foreign investment.

He may be willing to negotiate with the holdouts in return for "future considerations".

Soros must know something about Argentina that the rest of the investing world does not.

No, like Esten, he never met a left wing politician that he didn't get weak in the knees at the mere thought of kissing their ass. The bigger the wacko the more George baby genuflects.
