Autumn 2008
A financial crisis in a globalized world, a global crisis.
Panicked investors, scared depositors.
Emergency meetings, rescue plans ...
And it goes on ...

"A chaos". That`s so true!

Today here a sunny day but the bad news go on. Bad news from Asia, from the Wall Street, from ...

Thailand and Austria stopped trading (after heavy losses) in the last minutes, no trading in Russia (already yesterday) and others will follow. Is this helpful? Or is it possible that these actions will start a bank run? Some experts say this, others say that ... Confusion ... "A chaos".
