Todd Harrison: Is the European crisis over or just beginning?

By Todd Harrison NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — The stock market is never wrong and prices are the ultimate arbiter of variant financial views. As that dynamic is an ever-changing verdict, the bulls will argue that European policymakers have successfully navigated the sovereign sequel to the first phase of our financial crisis. See Minyanville’s “Five-Step Guide to Contagion.” They are also quick to note the difference between “drugs that mask the symptoms,” as administered by the U.S government in 2008, and “medicine that cures the disease,” in the form of debt destruction and/or reorganization
