Monti and Goldman Sachs

On 10 November I published a post titled "Who are the markets?", in which I assumed the presence of hedge funds and investment banks behind the movements of financial markets on government bonds.
So it's really interesting reading the following article of Milano Finanza newspaper http://www.milanofinanza.it/news/dettaglio_news.asp?id=201111100904011010&chkAgenzie=PMFNW , which lists the items that the sell-off in Italian BTP has been triggered by investment bank Goldman Sachs, for purely speculative purposes.
The Berlusconi government has fallen on the pressure of the financial markets on the Italian interest rates, justified by the lack of a serious operation of austerity in order to rebalance the public finances of the country. Bond sales, then falling prices and rising interest rates over sustainable limits.
Prime Minister will be, if he accept the nomination, the economist Mario Monti, the one who has been advocated by many as a possible savior.
It should be noted that since 2005 Mario Monti is an international advisor, with expertise ranging from international politics to capital markets, of Goldman Sachs, the investment bank accused of speculating against Italy.
Perhaps it would have been more appropriate to consider this conflict of interest in so delicate choice for the future and especially for the credibility of Italy, especially after so many years of conflict of interest in the media that characterized the politics of Berlusconi.
