Greek Situation. Bailouts Will Lead To More Monetization In Europe.

"I don't think it will work out, and I think other countries like Spain and probably Portugal will then also have to be bailed out eventually, and it will lead to more monetization in Europe, one of the reason the euro has been so week... The pain of the austerity will be very, very burdensome on Greece, and eventually the economy can not grow with the kind of budget they will have to enact, and under these conditions their currency is way overvalued. And so without the ability to grow, their ability to pay the interest and repay the debt will actually diminish."
