Like Japan for past 25years, Europeans savers forced in to buying sovereign debt and in most cases a percentage has to be German, Dutch etc. Problem is because Germany run budget surpluses there is very little to buy. Europe (like Japan before it) has huge personal wealth but these savings are funding Government debt hole and which should be stimulating the real economy. By using QE to fund government debt (like US) this could also this vast savings into the real (non govt) economy but Germans don't really see. care about the rest of Europe.
Instead a strong currency (e.g EURJPY up 50% from two years ago) will import more deflation until it becomes competitive.

Terrell E. Polk and her husband, Andrew S. Lombara, a bond trader at JPMorgan Chase, have been coming out to Snowmass for several years. �We tried other areas, but we decided we just liked Snowmass the best,� Ms. Polk said. Last year, the couple, who live on the Upper East Side, took the plunge and bought two condos at the Viceroy � a two-bedroom and a one-bedroom.
Ms. Polk said she recently discussed the idea of buying even more units at the Viceroy, and would have gone ahead if the couple had not already owned several other vacation homes, including two houses in Southampton and a place in Rosemary Beach, Fla.

ACC - consider the U.S. position as a nation with a savings deficit which needs to attract foreign capital. A fall in U.S. yields makes U.S. bonds less attractive to foreigners. In Europe there is no such need (to attract foreign capital) so no impact on the Euro per se. The two markets are very different.

JM - if you consider that both Spain and Italy do not need to import foreign capital (that is they do not run current account deficits and have sufficient national savings - indeed Europe as a whole has started to run a substantial current account surplus - that is it has excess savings and is exporting capital) then yes this makes sense. The U.S. savings deficit (current account deficit) is around 3 percent of annual GDP. So the U.S. has to pay up to attract foreign capital. The only question is: what kind of premium does it have to pay?

Germany's recorded low yield is 0.715%.

John - I was just wondering if the rally in Treasuries is more of the same: a reaction to central bank policy. That would explain the rally in Europe. In the U.S. I'm not so sure. It could all be little more than the start of silly season. So maybe we all need to take a deep breath and let all the position squaring, end of year stuff take place. That is maybe we just ignore everything that happens for the next month and come back and take a look at things in the New Year. It is possible to overthink things.

Some of the factors supporting this upward revision are quite encouraging - for instance, the upwards revision to equipment and software spending (business investment, now 10.7% from 7.2% initially), and personal consumption (consumer spending now 2.2% from 1.8%), and residential investment (homebuilding - now 2.7% from 1.8%).�
�There was, as expected, a slight additional drag from the net export sector, worth about $20bn over the quarter (annualised rate). And this more than offset the further increase in inventory building (revised up about $16bn) over the same period.�
�Whilst some parts of this release do suggest that the US economy has more momentum than initially indicated, both inventories and the defence component of government spending are likely to revert to being considerable drags in the fourth quarter, taking GDP growth closer to 2.0% than 3.0%, and the profile for GDP will remain very choppy, masking an underlying growth rate of between 2.5% and 3.0%.�
�At the margin, these figures make it easier for the Fed to move towards pushing rates higher next year. But a lot can happen between now and the April 2015 rate hike the market is pricing in, including much weaker inflation and a possible re-run of the 2013 government shutdown, and we are taking nothing for granted.�

FXStreet (London) - Dutch government debt is the latest of the European sovereign bond market to record new record lows.
10-year Netherlands government bonds declined to a record low at 0.8811 percent today, down from a session high of 0.9115 percent.
The move lower follows declines across the benchmark Eurozone sovereign bond space, with only Greece experiencing a pickup in yields. Only Portugal, Italy and Greece are borrowing above the 5-year average German 10y bond yield.

Thanks Ginko. So that's a full house: prices rising everywhere including Japan while Central Banks go with 'deflation' and Government borrowing continues to crowd out private borrowing at 'doctored' interest rates. Meanwhile the so-called economic recovery fails to show up. What a surprise.
Over in Australia it looks like they are gearing up to replace the Mad Monk with another ex Goldman alumni as iron ore tanks, mining takes a hit and the rest of the economy begins to enter a slump. The AUD is looking down a black hole.
USD/JPY still a 'sell on rallies' though it might take a while before it becomes an outright sell.
And the 'war on China and Russia' continues. No repercussions for the massive JPY devaluation but I read somewhere that the U.S. is looking into imposing tariffs on China.
European stock markets still have a way UP to go but the Nikkei and the U.S. markets are hitting the ceiling. It might be dull into the end of the year but 2015 looks like it will be fun. :-)

'when policy rates go to zero, central banks must resort to unconventional measures to avoid involuntary policy tightening;
very low inflation can aggravate situation because this increases real interest rates;
monetary policy must aim at influencing both nominal rates and inflation expectations;
ECB's purchases of covered bonds, abs will ease bank funding conditions, bring down risk premiums on private assets;
ECB's action on nominal interest rates has been strong and efficient; governing council has unanimously stated commitment to using additional unconventional policy within its mandate if needed to fight low inflation;
governing council made unanimous commitment to protect against misperception ECB is more tolerant of low inflation;
governing council statement on balance sheet size is not a firm commitment but an expectation;
governing council statement on balance sheet is clear indication further policy action will not be limited by quantitative restraints;
communication about balance sheet size can help bring inflation expectations more in line with ECB's definition of price stability;
Japan benefits from high wage flexibility, which helps competitiveness but may increase vulnerability to deflation;
in Europe, nominal wages are rigid and keep growing, which provides protection against deflation risk.'

BOJ MINUTES
Reply
TOKYO--Bank of Japan Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda on Tuesday defended the central bank's decision last month to boost its stimulus measures despite a split vote, saying the central bank needed to show its strong resolve to beat deflation.
In a speech to business leaders in Nagoya, central Japan, Mr. Kuroda even said he is willing to "continue" to act to ensure that the central bank will achieve its 2% inflation target by around next year.
Earlier in the day, the central bank released the summary of its Oct. 31 policy board meeting, where the proposal to implement additional easing measures passed by a thin 5-4 vote.
The minutes showed a sharp divide between Mr. Kuroda and some other board members over the effects of the new steps. Some members warned that the cost of the measures outweigh their benefits and questioned Mr. Kuroda's fundamental strategy to boost inflation expectations through the expanded easing.
But Mr. Kuroda said the BOJ's commitment to its price target is one of the "two engines" that influence such expectations. The other is the actual inflation rate, which is now around 1%.
"Therefore, the bank has considered it necessary to pursue monetary easing (more aggressively)...as well as to reiterate its unwavering resolution" to achieve its 2% price target, Mr. Kuroda said.
Shrugging off speculation that a divisive board could make it hard for him to ramp up further easing measures, Mr. Kuroda said there is no change in his stance to adjust policy "without hesitation" to make 2% inflation take hold if needed. "To achieve the price stability target, the bank has been taking 'action' and will continue to do so," he said.

Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views
25 Nov 2014 01:37GMT
USD/JPY - 118.06... Despite dlr's brief rise above NY res at 118.48 to 118.57 ahead of Asian open at the beginning of release of BoJ meeting minutes, price retreated subsequently as the minutes showed 4 out of the 9 BoJ board members were opposed to conducting additional easy policy because they worried about side-effects after expanding an aggressive easing program.
Dlr's intra-day fall accelerated after comments from BoJ's Governor Kuroda and then tanked to 117.80 before recovering.
Although broad-day buying of yen in Tokyo morning suggests selling dlr/yen pair on recovery is recommended, investors can look to book profit on next intra-day fall as last Friday's bottom at 117.36 (reaction low from 119.98 top) is expected to hold ahead of the speech from BOJ deputy governor Nakaso at 04:00GMT, followed by Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda press conference at 04:45GMT.
Offers from various accounts are noted at 118.15/20 and then 118.30-40 with mixture of offers and stops located at 118.55-65.
On the downside, bids are placed at 117.70/65, 117.55/50 with stops emerging just below 117.30.
Tuesday will see the release of Japan's BoJ meeting minutes, New Zealand's RBNZ inflation expectation, German GDP, U.S. prelimary GDP, PCE prices and Redbook, Canada's retail sales and U.S. monthly home price and consumer confidence.

Yup .. I really thought we could show some initiative today - if the Nikkei could have powered on
but its a holiday Lull .. and once Nikkei dropped away that was it..
I don't have anything Yen on the books at present and just few range shorts in EUR @40 - but who knows with that when London come in.
Really hoping there is more to this week than this.

the story of Asia so far :
Nikkei (in CFD terms) opened above 17500 traded up to 17555 and $yen tracked it fairly closely
we then sold off 100 points in Nikkei and $yen dropped down to 108.10 level
that has sucked the life out of the market here now .. so will be a waiting game for London.
