Selected articles from all journals
- Broken banking system is keeping growth at bay - Last weekend's election results in France and Greece, we're told, show that eurozone voters want "growth, not austerity". In the UK, too, the deficit-cutting coalition Government is being widely castigated for "lacking a growth policy" - 14th May 2012
- Bankers' vitriol has masked Sir Mervyn King's uncomfortable message - I don't know Sir Mervyn King particularly well. I've talked with the Bank of England Governor á deux just a few times over the years, always at official function - 7th May 2012
- Pump panic highlights the West's slavery to crude oil - Advance countries can't do without crude - witness petrol panic in Britain and US gasoline prices nearing the politically deadly “four bucks a gallon” - and claims of US energy independence just don't ring true - 2nd April 2012
- Budget 2012: sadly, George Osborne hasn't changed the big picture - George Osborne's latest Budget was, as expected, "fiscally neutral". The Chancellor kept to his "austerity plan", the aim of which is to cut the UK's annual budget deficit to zero by 2016-17 - 26th March 2012
- Forget 'economic spring' - Greek outlook is stormy - While last week's debt swap was obviously important, there is still a very real danger of Greece needing yet another bail-out quite soon and eventually leaving the euro - 12th March 2012
- Germany must decide if it wants the eurozone to survive or perish - European debt and equity markets ended a tumultuous week with a rally on Friday. So shares in the US and across the rest of the world rose too. But the threat of a "euroquake" – a systemic collapse which would make Lehman Brothers look tame – is by no means over. Far from it - 12th November 2011
- Why the latest eurozone bail-out is destined to fail within weeks - I want last week's European bail-out to work. My sincere hope is that collective and decisive action by the eurozone's large member states will stabilize global markets, at least for a while, so allowing the global economy to catch its breath - 30th October 2011
