    \x0a “But some question whether such schemes will work in the long term. Even the European Central Bank has waded into the debate, saying short-time working will delay the recovery. It argues that if the downturn is short-lived such schemes can be “efficient tools” but “over time, these measures generate a major fiscal burden without creating incentives for investment to foster recovery”. Jorma Ollila, chairman of Nokia and Royal Dutch Shell, frets about the impact on national budgets: “It is a costly way for governments to buy time.”\x0a

    \x0a “The IEA, the consuming countries’ watchdog, now expects global oil demand to grow a paltry 0.6 per cent or 540,000 b/d in 2008-2014, pushing consumption from 85.8m b/d to 89m b/d. That is considerably less than the 1m b/d average yearly increase the IEA had expected last year. If the lower-end GDP forecasts turn out to be correct, oil demand could actually contract over the period, with consumption at 84.9m b/d in 2014, the IEA said in its medium-term oil market report.”\x0a

    […] Però le réclame più frequenti e tartassanti di Kfi sono quelle delle società di mutui e rifinanziamento immobiliare. In appena poche ora di ascolto, un membro del pubblico di questa stazione radio, accasciato e con lo sguardo vitreo, può sentire réclame sia registrate che lette dal vivo della Green Light Financial, la Hms Capital, la Home Field Financial, il Lenox National Lending, lo U.S. Mortgage Capital, Cresting Funding, Home Savings Mortgage, Advantix Lending. Prestiti vitalizi ipotecari, ammortizzazione negativa, tariffe personalizzate, tassi di nteresse, intermediari finanziari… da dove vengono tutte queste aziende? Cosa faceva questa gente cinque anni fa? Per quale motifivo quello di Kfi è visto come un pubblico così spiccatamente maturo e pronto per il rifinanziamento? Betterloans.com, lendigtree.com, Union Bank of California, bethebroker.com, e così via all’infinito.

    \x0a “At the height of the financial crisis, when UBS debt was trading at about 70 cents on the dollar, accounting rules perversely enabled the bank to book this notional fall in its liabilities as a gain. Now, as the bank’s outlook brightens, so has the price of its debt risen. As a result, the bank has had to reverse the gain it once booked and count it as a loss. How ironic.”\x0a
