Musical chairs...

The European Central Bank bought Irish government bonds today,
according to two traders with knowledge of the transactions.

The ECB purchased short-dated maturities, said the traders, who asked
for anonymity because the deals are confidential. A central bank
spokesman declined to comment when contacted by telephone in
Frankfurt.
