“…Thus, the multiple-equilibria theory does not preclude increased sensitivity to fundamentals such as fiscal space and public debt ratios in the run-up to the Eurozone debt crisis but rather it contends that they are not the whole story (Aizenman et al, 2013;Grauwe and Ji, 2013). It is well known that peripheral Eurozone countries suffered dramatic rises in their CDS spreads (during the pre-OMT period) compared with non-euro European countries with similar fundamentals; clearly, this leaves a role for self-fulfilling dynamics in the absence of a lender-of-last-resort.…”

“…DeGrauwe and Ji (2012) andAizenman et al (2013) have considered the ratio of debt-to-total tax revenues as an alternative indicator of debt sustainability.3 As discussed inBernoth and Erdogan (2012), several empirical analyses on sovereign yield differentials(Codogno et al, 2003;Favero et al, 2010) use bid-ask spreads as a direct liquidity measure. In our analysis, due to lack of data, we cannot consider the bid-ask spread as an alternative liquidity proxy.…”
