Em Stress

"Just when you thought the humor out of the central bank that just released a stress test whose adverse scenario did not even assume the most likely Eurozone outcome, i.e., deflation, couldn't get any better, moments ago we learned that the test, which was supposed to restore confidence in Europe's banking system and in the oversight and regulatory abilities of Europe's central bank, had "errors and inconsistencies" which forced the ECB to "briefly remove from its website" the results of Italy's most insolvent bank, Monte Paschi, "after discovering an error in its key capital ratio", a bank which based on the ECB's (faulty?) failure assessment was halted countless times earlier today after crashing so hard the regulator had to ban selling it short. Again". (Zero Hedge)
