Macro Man senses nerves in a range of markets, an small wonder. Everything is the same trade. One would struggle to come up with a strong macroeconomic relationship between Spanish equities and the foreign exchange value of the New Zealand dollar versus the yen, but for the last year, they've been the same trade.
