The Deepening Eurozone Crisis

Yet another update on the Eurozone Crisis. It seems that everyday you can look on any number of websites and news outlets and find more information on the Eurozone Crisis. It's hard to keep up when things happen so quickly in the financial world.

It has only been about two weeks since I last looked into the crisis, and already so much more has happened. This video was helpful in explaining the latest developments, including analysis of Germany's trouble selling its bonds (worrisome, as Germany is seen as the most solid, stable and safe economy in the Eurozone). 

From Al Jazeera English's Inside Story, aired 25 November 2011.

The current financial/Eurozone crisis is all over the news, but many of us don't really know what it's about, or where it began.

Here is a very short and basic video from BBC that provides a quick recap and explanation of the Eurozone crisis.

From BBC website: 3 November 2011

"Rioting on the streets of Athens, banks are in trouble, investors worry, taxpayers are angry. The eurozone is in crisis. We explain what went wrong in the eurozone, and why the problems in Greece are now a global problem."
