I think it was this bank that announced a few days ago that it would be selling $63 billion of US and European government bonds at a loss, perhaps in an attempt to shore up some cash.
That is correct. I'm thinking there are plenty of banks all over the world in the same predicament.

I think $63B won't be anything special and markets can absorb these amounts without much difficulty, but if they start coming one after the other, here we go again.

Like you and I talked about last week, I think it's the solvency of the banks that are more concerning than what it does to the bond market. That is until the dominoes really start falling.
