Πόσο κοντά είμαστε σε μια νέα παγκόσμια ύφεση;
Τις τελευταίες μέρες διαβάζουμε στον εγχώριο και διεθνή τύπο για τη κατάρρευση της Silicon Valley Bank, της Signature Bank, τη πτώση της μετοχών της Credit Suisse -έφτασαν σε ιστορικό χαμηλό, το ¼ της αξίας τους- μαζί με την απόσυρση καταθέσεων, και άλλους τραπεζικούς κλυδωνισμούς που ανησυχούν επενδυτές και καταθέτες τόσο στην Αμερική όσο και στην… Continue reading
