Mike, I think there is something else, much more worrying going on. With all that is currently on the news about the economic crisis in europe, it is awfully quiet on the UK and US side. Mind you that if you look closely at those markets are really in no better shape than the european economy. It is a welcome diversion for obama and his british colleage not to be overwhelmed with bad economic news from their own country.
The eu, is a young nation with different economic rules and the world now it watching the very closely what is going on there and how its getting out of the crisis. That is absolutely not to say that things are any better oversees.
Germany for example is not doing all the bad, neither is the Netherlands. The main problem we've got here are the southern countries that have significant economic problems. They can't use the old technique of printing money and devaluating their own currency as they use the euro. This is a significant challenge the UK and US are not facing.
