Turtles, owls and ponies “Voices of Cassidiaris”, TUI talks about tourism record and opposition in Sarantes

–Welcomeso of all we have f “Faws” of Corinth And Turtles from Aegina And Owls from Athens. what are these; But local coins used in ancient Greece around 550 BC. I’m referring to one of the two political events of yesterday, the financial one Tsakalotou +53 SYRIZA program On the adoption of local currencies, which have already been introduced for use by the Syriza bodies with the aim of preparing the final pre-election program on March 12. It seems that when Tsipras read it … his hair fell off and he threw it away, but 53 … is 53 years old and Tsakalotos … is Tsakalotos, no matter how we do it, along with of course other prominent members of the party that is competing On the government in the twenty-first month.

“What is this, guys?”

– When the news reached the press offices, I was surprised, did not believe it, and reacted with the well-known “cutting nonsense”, but of course when I learned that the proposal to “adopt or use local means of payment (local complementary currencies), etc. I called my well-known Syrian source and asked what was going on around him, and I found the answer: “Between Theoretical camouflage is +53 so is he… To make Alexis’ life difficult…». Look, Theory Blurs… Local Currencies in 2023 by Tsakalotos I can’t believe it at all. Unless they get something… Expired. Which makes his life more difficult (than it is…) probably It seems more convincing to me.

Watch out, the predator is listening…

– But the second political event yesterday was of his own making Tsipraswith the Divine saying “Our people do not respond to the enemy because a predator writes to them …”. You’re driving him crazy, you devilsHuman!

Where are the “Kassidiarides…”

– from rolling Polls (What they answer with, anyway) The only news is that’s the 4% that the surveys found They voted “for the Greeks” from Kasidiaris They are scattered among the “abstentions”, “white or void” and “EAN” of Kanilopoulos and other small parties that are just a stone’s throw away from entering Parliament.

The “project” that we will see in the coming months with loans

– It’s a topic that everyone prefers not to talk about. But with the passage of time and interest rates at current levels, it becomes more and more apparent that it seems that variable rate mortgage borrowers are not the only ones who are being asked to bear greater burdens. Serious focus of concern is Organized business loansSignificant loans have been restructured. For example, a company that took out 50 million loans arranged at Euribor + 2.5%, when interest rates were zero, paid 1.25 million interest annually. Now that the 12-month Euribor is 3.70% and the spread is 2.5%, he must pay 6.2% for the same borrowing, i.e. 3.1 million. Does EBIDTA allow this? And if covered by EBIDTA, How are other needs funded? This is the “project” we’ll see unfold in the coming months.

Self-assessments…that become objective

-Piraeus Bank model with Strix The transfer of non-bank holdings to it raised questions from the start, while it is curious that other systemic banks, which also have different holdings, did not follow suit. I am of course relieved that I am not the only one who does not understand, as in the 2021 Balance Sheet (pp. 141-142) Deloitte writes about the agreement with Palantir and the Mayfair transaction with respect to its portfolio, in-kind contribution to Strix Holdings in exchange for a minority stake and indicates that the investments in the newly formed Strix Holdings and Strix Asset Management are recognized at their fair value with the result being recognized in the Group’s income statement. Profit 184 millionDeloitte notes that “the particular transaction was considered a significant audit matter due to its complexity” and concludes that “the fair value measurement of a bank’s involvement involves significant accounting estimates with High degree of subjectivity(sic). Subjective estimates now Gain a degree of objectivitywith Strix Asset Management now advising the bank on values.

Medical: New investments but board fees are higher than earnings

– The market is not satisfied with the results of Athens Medicine for the year 2022 as it was less than expected Due to the increase in energy costs and the amount of automatic clawbacks. also , lending It remains a very difficult thorn and last March a new €15m loan agreement was required to cover working capital. However, the company says 2023 will be better and is focusing on three of its investments. Initially, it is expected to be put into operation next September New Oncology Centre Which will be held in a new building in the medical center of Thessaloniki, with an investment of 25 million euros. At the same time, the licensing procedure for its creation is progressing Medical Park of Athens On an area of ​​83 acres for the company in the Bayana area. Finally, a piece of land directly in front of the hospital complex of the Medical Center in Al-Marousi on the “ring” that will be used in Collaboration with Dimand and GEKTERNA To build a modern office complex and other infrastructure. The new investments may bear fruit and improve the numbers of the listed company, because the net profit is 6.5 million, and at the same time the board fees have increased to 8.5 million, and I think it should not satisfy the shareholders.
