BBC also reports that Switzerland's economy will shrink 2.2% this year, its government has said, a much deeper recession than forecast. People in Europe do get worried about war and I think the European markets could be a bit worried. Am not sure how European markets are doing today

What will really scare me is if Zim now does an arms deal...with SA funding...but also have to confess that I wouldn't be completely surprised...?! Apparently the precedent has been set when a "new" govt assumes power.
