From a Channel Seven special on Sunday with Sunrise Co host/sometime financial advisor David Koche to the less than svelte sometimes in opinion Sarkozy, where ios the global market headed?
Quote:
The economic turmoil provoked by crises in the American subprime and finance markets has put an end to the free market economy, French President Nicolas Sarkozy says.
"Laissez-faire is finished, the all-powerful market that is always right, that's finished," Sarkozy said in a widely anticipated speech, his first in France on the economic crisis.
As a result, it is "necessary to rebuild the entire global financial and monetary system from the bottom up, the way it was done at Bretton Woods after World War II," Sarkozy said.
In July 1944, an agreement was signed in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, that established new rules for commercial and financial relations among the world's major industrial states.

. A guy in the US has a real problem, having had his fella removed (cancerous) but seeing as he was out to it at the time against his local anaesthetic wish for a circumcism at age 61, he is of course suing anyone his lawyer no doubt thinks can be sued.

Bur through it all, oerhaps the most sensible comment seemed to come from a guy on SBS/CNN the other night and he looked old enough to perhaps have been born about the time of the great depression - his advice, and quite simple:
" any prop up monies by government gets applied for as a loan, to be re-paid with interest " - that has occurred in South American economies, back about the eighties and they're still surviving down that way.
Good to see that the FBI might have a few tycoons on their most wanted list.
So what do all you other budding analysts think of the scenario?
