Portugal and Europe’s TinderboxWSJ
Portugal has a Troika review upcoming on July 15. The opposition Socialists will be meeting with the president tomorrow afternoon. JP Morgan points out that if the Portas’s rightist CDS-PP party would withdraw its support the government would retain only 108 of the 230 seats in parliament. This would require forming a new coalition or a call for new elections. The risk of new elections in Portugal opens the door for anti-euro backlash.

UNITED STATES
Margin Call on US banks (or rather too-big-to-fail banks)TradingFloor
Steen Jakobsen: this week's big deal is the openness with which the Federal Reserve is preparing a major margin call on the too-big-to-fail banks in the US. This has been a long time coming since the introduction of the Dodd-Frank law back in 2010 but it is a game changer. Remember ALL macro paradigm shifts come from policy impulses, often mistakes.
