Against this background, the return of US investors to provide short-term dollar funding for European bank debt smacks of a desperate hunt for yield that relies on European Central Bank President Mario Draghi’s promise to do “whatever it takes” to save the euro. As for Goldman’s equity play, as bond-market guru Bill Blain put it, “the words ‘buy cheap, sell a bit dearer on the up, and then dump and run’ spring to mind.”
与此相对的是，美国投资者的归来为欧洲银行债务提供了短期美元资金，他们背靠欧洲央行行长德拉吉“竭尽全力”拯救欧元的承诺，疯狂地追逐收益率。债券市场大亨布莱恩（Bill Blain）这样评论高盛的股票买入行为：“脑海中突然浮现出‘买在地位，稍稍上涨后卖掉，出货完毕逃之夭夭。’这句话。”
