01[09:09] {Threei} (DE) German Bundesbank Monthly Report: Remain critical of ECB bond buying as it comes with considerable risks to stability- Govt and NOT the ECB should decide on sharing solvency risks - Govt solvency must not be shared via the ESM bank aid - Unified banking regulator could be key to stability - Inflation environment to darken over Euro and raw material costs - German growth may be hit harder by Eurozone crisis from Q3 period but does not see downturn for German economic growth cycle.
01[09:09] {Threei} e
01[09:10] {Threei} (EU) ECB responds to German press report on possible intervention: Bond yield targets have not been discussed by council; absolutely misleading to report on decisions not yet taken - Governing Council will act strictly within its mandate and wrong to speculate on the shape of future ECB interventions

01[10:01] {Threei} btw, interesting twist over this weekend:
01[10:01] {Threei} a few sources reported that Germany sees salvation in Finland,
01[10:02] {Threei} wanting out of EU but not being able to be the first to exit, it see Finland as best candidate to exit first, which opens the door for Germany
01[10:03] {Threei} up to some alluding that there may be behind the closed doors negotiations encouraging Finland to do just that
