It's done wonders for the euro.

I thought that 1.3400 might be reached, but one of my clients thinks that 1.2500 is possible. They might be right.

They've only got a population of 11 million though. What worries me about the UK is its vast population. Oil isn't going to last forever, especially not ours. Doomed.

Seeing as everyone’s an AAA++ or an AA+ and at the worst an AA-, I am beginning to believe that these ratings were set up by the same people who mark modern ‘A’ level and GCSE exams.

Portugal credit downgrade

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8584812.stm

Portugal's credit rating has been downgraded from AA to AA- by leading credit rating agency Fitch over concerns about its high levels of debt.

Don't worry though the UK has a triple A ++ rating.
