Brazilians Find Their Stock Exchange Bull Unbearable, Remove It went the headlines this week. Actually, the NGOs may have been winching, but the planning laws saw it move on. Many felt gauche that homeless tents are so close to the stock exchange building other prosperous signs of commerce, making some Paulo appear just like San Francisco in the United States of America.
The European Union Sees a ‘Decisive Moment’ For Building the Single Capital Market so went the news at the point when a leaked letter to Santa Claus from the European Union came out masquerading as the mafia review.
I can see that moment too, of course, the trouble is it was at least a decade ago. When even the usually hyper-loyal member of the European Parliament Marcus Ferber reckons, according to Reuters that “the proposals make modest progress but failed to match the ambition of the CMU project” then it’s fair to say the European Union has dropped the CMU ball, once again, after a decade of disappointment.
Bloomberg had one headline suggesting the European Union was moving forward. The other was more in tune with the realpolitik European Union revives bid to build Capital Markets Union – albeit CMU needs not so much reviving as resuscitation if it is ever going to happen, which I don’t believe the European Union is capable of doing given its record in the field.
