Morgan Stanley Says Europe's Pandora's Box Has Been Opened
Have a sinking suspicion that the way the Eurozone has handled the past week's Greek threat has set the stage for the collapse of the Eurozone (here's looking at you Italy, over and over) now that Merkozy has made the possibility of a country leaving the Eurozone all too real? You are not alone: Morgan Stanley's Joachim Fels has just sent a note to clients in which he not only commingles three of the catchiest and most abused apocalyptic phrases of our time ("Emperor has no clothes", "Water Pistol not Bazooka" and "Pandora's Box") he also warns, in no uncertain terms, that "by raising the possibility that a country might (be forced to) leave the euro, core European governments may have set in motion a sequence of events which could potentially lead to runs on sovereigns and banks in peripheral countries that make everything we have seen so far in this crisis look benign." And when a major investment bank, itself susceptible to bank runs warns of, well, bank runs, you listen.More On MF Global - It Gets Worse
*We are staring into the dark abyss of our system - Dante's Inferno if you
will - but it's being hidden by a veil of deceit and cover-up that may not
disappear until the system has incinerated - *Dave in Denver, 11/5/11
I reiterate my call for justice in this situation by giving Jon Corzine a

And G-Pap Is Gone...

Lucas Papademos will be the new PM with Venizelos and Dimas as deputies. We still don't have a formal announcement from the government: it wouldn't be the first time a Greek media outlet has frontrun the desired outcome...Presenting Jim Grant's Greatest Hits (On Money, Banking, Gold And The Fed)
Jim
Grant, whose Grant's Interest Rate Observer has been one the world's
most informative premium newsletters since 1983, has long been one of
Zero Hedge's favorite commentators,
not least due to his convergent ideas on monetary policy and the role
of central planning in the world, which as Arthemis Capital presented very vividly last week,
is the sole marginal decider of risk in the world's capital markets
(and thus the most critical shadow political force the world, or rather
its bankers, has ever unleashed upon itself). So while we await any
news out of Greece, however non-eventful they may be, and at best will
see the placement of one Pap ("G"), with another Pap (the "L", who as we profiled is
nothing but yet another puppet of the Federal Reserve), here is a
compilation of James Grant's best moments on money, banking, central
banking, gold and the Federal Reserve System, courtesy of Gresham's Law. It is no wonder that Ron Paul recently said that he would choose James Grant as Fed Chairman if elected.![[Most Recent Quotes from www.kitco.com]](http://www.kitconet.com/charts/metals/gold/t24_au_en_usoz_2.gif)
