Päris lõpliku kokkuleppeni Kreeka poliitilised liidrid eile ei jõudnud, kui nõusolek anti kõikidele troika nõudmistele peale pensionikärbete. Papademos üritab seetõttu lahendada küsimust troikaga, leidmaks 300 miljoni euro ulatuses täiendavaid säästumeetmeid, et vältida lisapensionite ja avaliku sektori töötajate pensionite 15%list vähendamist. Väidetavalt peab kokkulepe olema sõlmitud kõige hilisemalt järgmise nädala keskpaigaks, et siis 20. märtsi 14,5 miljardi euro suuruse võlakohustuse lunastamise tähtajaks paberimajandusega ühele poole jõuda.
Lisaks Kreeka teemale on täna igakuist intressimäära otsust langetamas nii Inglise (kl 14.00) kui Euroopa keskpank (kl 14.45). Esimese puhul oodatakse võlakirjade ostuprogrammi suurendamist, teise puhul kuulatakse pigem kl 15.30 algavat pressikonverentsi, kus huviorbiidis on tõenäoliselt järgmise LTRO ootused ning EKP osalemine Kreeka võla restruktureerimises. Makro poolel avalikustatakse kell 11.30 Suurbritannia detsembri tööstustoodang ning kell 15.30 USA esmaste töötuabiraha taotlejate muutus eelmisel nädalal.
USA indeksite futuurid on kauplemas kerges miinuses.
Öösel avalikustatud Hiina jaanuarikuu inflatsioon kujunes oodatust veidi kiiremaks (4,5% vs prognoositud 4,1%), kuid liikuva uustaasta püha tõttu väga sügavaid järeldusi sellest ei tehta.
Via Marketwatch: January’s consumer price index rose 4.5% in January from a year earlier, the National Bureau of Statistics said in a statement Thursday, exceeding consensus analyst expectations of 4.1%, according to separate Reuters and Dow Jones Newswires surveys. The inflation spike stood in stark contrast to a softening trends in recent months, as prices had risen 4.1% in December, 4.2% in November, and 5.5% in October.

Diamond Foods (DMND)-s on juba mõnda aega audiitorid uurinud firma raamatupidamist, sest ettevõttel lasub kahtlus pettuses ja valeandmete esitamises.
Eile peale turu sulgumist teatas DMND, et audiitorid on leidnud firma raamatupidamises ebakõlasid ja sellest tulenevalt peab 2010. ja 2011. aasta majandusaruanded üle vaatama ja korrigeerima. Ühtlasi nimetati ametisse ka uus CEO ja CFO.

Veel DMDN teema jätkuks. Täna ka mitmed analüüsimajad olukorda kommenteerimas ja RBC Capitali analüütikud ütlevad, et reaaliseerus kõige hullem stsenaarium ja seda mitmel põhjusel:
Esiteks on firma kasv nüüd täiesti takerdunud ning igasugune selgus tuleviku osas samuti kadunud.Teiseks saavad kontrolli enda kätte nüüd pangad mitte investorid, sest 2011. aasta tulude üle vaatamine võib tõsta firma võlakordaja 5,3x peale kui isegi mitte 6x peale.
The growth story has stalled for now, and visibility is low. With thearchitect of Diamond's growth strategy gone, Pringles presumably off the table,and financial flexibility limited at best, the DMND investment thesis has takena significant blow. Meanwhile, we find it difficult to assess the company'searnings prospects with the organization in flux and multiple lawsuits andinvestigations ongoing.• The banks, not the stockholders, are now in control. Diamond's restatedFY-11 earnings puts its leverage ratio at 5.3x, and this could rise to 6x if thecompany is forced to pay a break-up fee to Procter & Gamble. This putsDMND in violation of its debt covenants. We assume that the banks will act intheir own best interest, but we don't know what that course of action will be. Aforced liquidation is a possibility, but with lawsuits pending, it's unclear to uswhether forced asset sales are even feasible at this juncture.•
Analüütikute arvates võivad olukorras kasu lõigata HAIN, LNCE ja BGS.
Potential beneficiaries include HAIN, LNCE and BGS. If Diamond's snackbrands are liquidated, we believe Hain and Snyder's-Lance would be logicalsuitors for Kettle, and Pop Secret would be a good potential fit with B&GFoods, in our view.
Jefferies analüütikud viitavad sellele, et tõenäoliselt on nüüd off the table ka Pringles`i tehing (DMND pidi ostma PG-lt Pringles snäkkide segmendi $ 1,5 miljardi eest) ja sellest tulenevalt on reaalne, et DMND peab maksma trahvi $ 60 miljonit ja $ 6 miljonit kaasnevate kulude eest. Teiseks pole ka selge, kui suured on uurimisega seotud kulud.
What additional costs will DMND incur? How much has DMND spent on theinvestigation, outside counsel and third party auditor so far? What incremental costs willthe company incur to fight/settle shareholder lawsuits and to manage the SEC and DoJinvestigations? How distracted has management been and how much has that hurt growth?
Eelturul kaupleb DMND $ 21,55 juures, 41% miinuspoolel.

Melco Crown Entertainment beats by $0.03, beats on revs
Reports Q4 (Dec) earnings of $0.20 per share, $0.03 better than the Capital IQ Consensus Estimate of $0.17; revenues rose 30.2% year/year to $1.01 bln vs the $0.98 bln consensus. The YoY increase in net revenue was primarily driven by a group-wide increase in gaming volumes and significant improvements in mass table games hold percentages, as well as increasing contributions from our hotel, food & beverage and entertainment segments. Adjusted EBITDA was US$231.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of 73% from US$133.8 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2010. The significant improvement in profitability was primarily a result of the ongoing increase in contribution from our mass market operations, particularly the mass table games segment at City of Dreams, together with strong group-wide rolling chip volumes.
