|
The global economy is at the point of maximum danger By Ambrose Evans- Pritchard Last Updated: 6:53am BST 21/07/2008 It feels like the summer of 1931.

No world leader seems able to discern the problem, let alone forge a solution. /Read on, with comments... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?xml=/money/...
