The US, eurozone and China are the three largest economies on earth. Each has been hoping the other two would help pull the global economy out of its seemingly neverending malaise. 02 Jun 2012 This euro crisis is now getting extremely serious. Events are happening quickly, closing-in on policy-makers and threatening to engulf us. 26 May 2012 So now there can be no question about it. The possibility of “eurozone exit” is real. 19 May 2012 Spain facing gravest danger since end of Franco dictatorship as country is frozen out of global capital markets. 30 May 2012 Southern Europe’s debtor states must pledge their gold reserves and national treasure as collateral under a €2.3 trillion stabilisation plan gaining momentum in Germany. 29 May 2012 Spanish premier Mariano Rajoy has given a fateful hostage to fortune. He told the nation that there will no EU rescue of Spain's banking system, even as `Black Monday' brought a further crash in bank shares and the IBEX index dropped to nine-year lows. 28 May 2012 Spain is spiralling into the vortex of debt-deflation. This has nothing to do with Greece. It is not the result of fiscal extravagance over the past decade, or other such Wagnerian myths. 27 May 2012 Once again Europe's leaders have swooped into Brussels and vanished hours later without offering any clear way out of the pulsating crisis at hand. 24 May 2012 Pressure on Greece increased dramatically on Wednesday night after Germany's central bank called for a suspension of financial support to Athens and eurozone finance ministries agreed to draft contingency plans for a Greek exit from the euro. 23 May 2012 Fitch Ratings has downgraded Japan two notches to A+, citing a surge in public debt since the Lehman crisis and the lack of any plan to restore fiscal probity. 22 May 2012 The eurozone's 'Latin Bloc' is in full revolt. The trio of French, Italian, and Spanish leaders - backed by world powers - are to push for a radical shift in Europe's economic strategy at crucial summit on Wednesday. 21 May 2012
