Shares in Europe and America started dropping immediately at 2.30pm yesterday as soon as the newly-appointed Mario Draghi spelled out that he was going to do his job properly. He was going to run the European Central Bank according to the Treaty which set it up in the first place and not lend money willy-nilly to Eurozone governments. During the night, the 17 Eurozone leaders have scraped up 200 billion Euros from somewhere (10-fold less than is really needed) in the hope that Mario Draghi will loosen the ECB rules a little bit and also that the IMF, America or China might chip in with more money today. How likely this might be is what investors will be deciding this morning. If they are of the same mind as yesterday afternoon and take their money elsewhere then we can reasonably imagine that the Eurozone will seriously start crumbling today and through the week-end.
