The Coming Eurozone Crisis

 

Panel discussion on the latest news regarding Eurozone economies, pressure on the Euro, and issues regarding inflation.

The sovereign debt of four countries - Germany, France, Italy, and Spain – equals 70% of all E.U. debts.
Due to years of bad monetary and fiscal policy, money is flowing out of the E.U. Traders are shorting E.U. Bonds. The costs of debt financing are increasing. Inflation is exacerbating due to the war in Ukraine.

What is the future of the Euro? The currency that has been on a downward trajectory for over a year and is now below the U.S. dollar.
How does this impact smaller countries like the Czech Republic, Croatia, Hungary, and Poland, which are still using their own currency?
