A mistake for whom? There is only one side of the trade here – the right side. Success or failure will be determined by market forces not bureaucrats.
While certain groups will always setup the mark(s), their operations will never alter the secular trends. The Euro will reverse as the dollar inevitably weakens when the specs and retail money have been herded for slaughter to the other side of the trade. Markdown will soon give way to accumulation.

Don’t bet against euro: German finance minister
Sat Dec 11, 11:13 am ET
BERLIN (Reuters) – Europe’s single currency is here to stay and those who bet against its survival are making a mistake, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said.
In an interview to appear on Sunday in Bild am Sonntag newspaper, Schaeuble said leaders of all the countries that share the currency agreed — the euro worked toward their common good and a return to national money would be a mistake.
"Those who bet their money against the euro will have no success… the euro will not fail," Schaeuble said. "The euro benefits us all and we will defend it successfully."
European leaders meet next week to discuss ways to solve a euro zone debt crisis which has triggered bailouts for Greece and Ireland and which analysts say could engulf other countries. They are expected to agree the terms of a permanent rescue mechanism for the bloc.

QE to Infinity!  Politics continually disgraces itself. ECB plans to keep purchasing government bonds is QE.  These are the same people that were attacking Bernanke only 3 weeks ago for his announcement of more QE 2. By the way, Bernanke never stopped. Is anyone out there still not in agreement with me regarding QE to Infinity?
If you agree with me then $1650 is in the bag. Believe me, it is!

ECB to keep purchasing govt. bonds
Sun Dec 5, 2010 11:22AM
The European Central Bank (ECB) says it will keep purchasing the government bonds of debt-ridden countries in a move to calm financial markets.
ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said the bank will also maintain the status quo on injecting liquidity to troubled governments.
The remarks came after ECB reportedly started buying huge amounts of public debts of Ireland and Portugal to help ease tension on government bond markets.
The bank launched the controversial move in response to the Greek debt crisis in May. But some economists believe the program just provides a temporary solution.
