Greece Debt Crisis Sends Financial Markets Falling
Thursday, June 16, 2011 11:14With London, Paris and Frankfurt initially down by more than 1%, every European market opened much lower, following the falls in the Asian markets. Investors are now worried that the Greek economy has reached a tipping point and contagion will spread. Greece’s prime minister will try to form a new cabinet to push through a debt restructuring plan.
In order to avoid the government defaulting on the nation’s debts, new spending cuts and sell-offs of state property much be passed to get new bail-out funds from the EU and IMF. However, rioters have taken to the streets again. Besides, Greece’s former deputy finance minister–George Floridis resigned in protest at the slow pace of economic reforms.
