The Phoney War between Brussels and Anglo-Saxon finance is at an end and life is about to change for London's financiers, traders and hedge funds. 09 Sep 2010 Brussels will use sweeping new powers to end speculation and impose order on the City and other EU bourses, warns Michel Barnier. 09 Sep 2010 Ireland is to break up the nationalised lender Anglo Irish Bank, hoping to end a disastrous saga that has shattered confidence in Irish finance. 08 Sep 2010 I try to remain optimistic that the US and China will work out a more or less amicable way to run the world for the next half century, a “Chimerica” of interwoven superpowers. 07 Sep 2010 Goldilocks has played a trick on America. Growth is not warm enough to prevent hard-core unemployment climbing to post-war highs and sticking at levels that corrode the body politic, but not yet cold enough to overcome the fierce resistance of the Fed's regional hawks for a fresh blast of stimulus. 05 Sep 2010 The US, Japan and large parts of Europe have exhausted their policy arsenal, leaving them defenceless against a double-dip recession. 05 Sep 2010 Brussels is to push for the creation of a form of "treasury" for the European Union with powers to issue bonds and reinforce fiscal integration. 04 Sep 2010 Greece’s austerity measures cannot prevent default and could lead to a breakdown of the political order, says top German economist. 03 Sep 2010 Austerity measures and double-dip recession fears fail to snuff out 'flicker of optimism' over economy. 31 Aug 2010 Japan becomes the first major country to inject further stimulus since the Great Recession ended. 30 Aug 2010 Moody's rating agency is concerned that China is powering its economic growth by raising the gearing of the banking system, leaving the country exposed if the outlook darkens. 30 Aug 2010 China's draconian export curbs on rare minerals needed for hi-tech industries is escalating into a serious diplomatic and trade clash with the US. 29 Aug 2010 If Barack Obama were to marshal America’s vast scientific and strategic resources behind a new Manhattan Project, he might reasonably hope to reinvent the global energy landscape and sketch an end to our dependence on fossil fuels within three to five years. 29 Aug 2010Ambrose Evans-Pritchard
