Draghi anunciou que os stress tests, desta vez, serão a doer (Mario Draghi em Davos: "banks that should go, should go!"), implicando que os bancos aflitos não poderão contar mais com o BCE e deverão dar lugar aos mais competitivos e prudentes. A balbúrdia e pancaria parlamentar desta semana em Roma é uma consequência imediata e direta das palavras de Draghi na Conferência de Davos. O caso não é para menos: para salvar o maior e um dos maiores bancos privados italianos a maioria governamental fez passar no parlamento um truque de magia financeira segundo o qual aqueles dois bancos escapam à foice do BCE através de uma operação de venda imposta de ações entretanto valorizadas por decreto em mais de 4.807.692%! Se isto não é Weimar, cada vez apresenta mais semelhanças :(
