From the FloorTF
China's central bank has roiled global financial markets for a second day running as it again slashed its daily yuan fix, sending the currency to a fresh 4-year low against the dollar. The fallout is immense. Risk appetite is down, Asian currencies are in turmoil, bond yields are sinking and commodities are taking a pounding. Worse, the move has also punctured hopes of an imminent US rate hike.

Jan Hurri: Viis hinnasta, Kreikka-draama jatkuuTalSa
Kreikan kolmas "pelastuspaketti" on kuin kaksi edellistä: se paisuttaa Kreikan velkataakkaa ja pahentaa maan talousahdinkoa eikä ratkaise kriisiä. Samoin Suomen Kreikka-riski kasvaa eikä kutistu. Sata miljardia sinne tai tänne, kunhan Kreikka-draama jatkuu.
