Friday 905P Eastern Time: .Satyajit Das, in Australia, in re: Germany and the possible total meltdown.  Did well rolling cars off the line and down to Italy and Spain. No longer.  Economy €2.8 trillion euros; will lose 40% in a year. Germany has been mfrg essential investment goods; have been lending tot he people who buy their goods -a Ponzi scheme; and sell almost 60% in Europe and almost 40% in eurozone. Were selling 5% to China, which is now very soft.  The global slowdown radically affect Germany's economy.  Trade makes up 13% of US economy. Banking systems are still linked, which will cause trouble for US banks. S&P 500 - 40% from overseas, much of it from now-weak Europe.  Everybody;s trying to weaken its own currency;not everybody can have the weakest currency.  Greek vote will be indecisive; all parties want varying degrees of renegotiation of the treaties and Germany and France will accommodate to some degree. If Greece doesn't solve it, will revert to a technocratic govt and we'll all just bumble toward the precipice.
