ECB warning on banks rattles global markets

Telegraph
"The European Central Bank has given its starkest warning to date on growing strains in the eurozone credit markets. ....In a ghastly day for Europe's lenders, Moody's downgraded 25 Spanish banks as rising defaults eat into reserves. ....In Germany, the bank-rescue fund Soffin said deep recession was leading to a "massive sharpening" of bank losses on risk assets, endangering the capital base of the financial sector."
