Berlusconi non è Mussolini ma poco ci manca. Il Financial Times non risparm
2009-05-27 13:51:00 Berlusconi non è Mussolini ma poco ci manca L'editoriale del Financial Times mette in ginocchio il Premier italiano a cura di Iannozzi Giuseppe Durissimo l'editoriale del Financial Times che attacca le scelte politiche del Premier Silvio Berlusconi, mettendolo letteralmente in ginocchio di fronte all'evidenza: "Mentre vengono poste pesanti domande sulla sua relazione con un'adolescente che sogna di diventare una star, domande che sua moglie è stata la prima a sollevare, Berlusconi si è rivolto contro il suo più ostinato interrogante, il quotidiano di centro-sinistra la Repubblica, ha lanciato velate minacce tramite un suo associato e ha cercato di invalidare le domande sostenendo che sono viziate da un pregiudizio politico. Egli ha mostrato simile belligeranza verso i magistrati che lo hanno giudicato corruttore dell'avvocato inglese David Mills, definendoli militanti di sinistra, sebbene il parlamento lo abbia reso immune dall'essere proc...
Taxi Drivers versus the Financial Times
2008-12-06 21:19:00 I have been in Liverpool for a few days to visit a ship and came back with the impression that Britain is not really in the grips of a recession at all. I couldn't find a hotel in Liverpool, seems that everybody wanted to go there and the place was jam-packed with shoppers all carrying bags filled with recent purchases.After four days of work on the vessel I left from Liverpool Lime Street on a train bound for York and then home and as the journey progressed I managed to dispel the images of crazed shopping, of a population desperate to spend every penny they have and more on credit before being maxed out. To further this return to supposed reality I gave my self a liberal dose of the Financial Times newspaper. I sweated page after page of trauma and desperation, of woe and collapse. I drip fed my brain with words like recession, retrenchment, redundancy and rationalize and I gave myself a suppository of bank and retailer projected failures over the coming months and years. I overd...

2008-06-10 09:10:00 Maybe now we know why former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield wants to keep fighting at age 45. The “Real Deal” appears real broke. His $10 million estate in suburban Atlanta is under foreclosure, the mother of one of his children is suing for unpaid child support, and a Utah consulting company has gone to court claiming the boxer failed to pay back more than a half million dollars for landscaping.

Financial Times on Indonesian equities
2007-06-22 11:06:00 Indonesia is back on the map. Friday marks the debut of the archipelago's second biggest listing since the Asian financial crisis 10 years ago, cashing in on a resurgent stock market. The market has risen 20 per cent in dollar terms this year and foreigners have ploughed in a net $1.3bn. Some of this is simply catch-up. Indonesia was among the slowest of the regional economies to recover after the crisis, and economic growth took another knock after domestic fuel prices were increased in 2005. The $160bn stock market is shallow, dominated by a handful of big names and state-owned enterprises. That partly explains investor appetite for Media Nusantara Citra's $420m initial public offering. The TV and radio station group offers a relatively rare consumer play that allowed it to get away with a punchy multiple of about 23 times projected 2008 earnings. But Indonesia also stacks up well against its neighbours, with a mid-ranking valuation and superior earnings growth: analysts are pen...
