From The Business Insider, May 25, 2010:Good morning. Here's what you need to know: - Asian markets fell significantly overnight due to increasing geopolitical fears associated with the Korean Peninsula. European markets are also down hard in early trading on similar news, as well as concerns over the Spanish banking system. U.S. futures are down ahead of today's trading day.
- Credit is not just becoming tighter in Europe, but worldwide, as investors are now beginning to fear the threat of European debt contagion and a potential double-dip recession. U.S. government debt is now showing some signs of the distress.
- The CEO of AIA, the Asian division of AIG, has said he will quit if the company's takeover by the UK's Prudential goes through. He sees the deal as "unworkable."
- Markets seem to be predicting an Australian interest rate cut as a result of a slowing economy brought down by a drag on the country's mining sector. The country, which was an early rate hiker, is now likely to cut rates.
- Bonus: Kim Kardashian has admitted to plastic surgery, but only a little botox. She has denied ever having her "nose done."
Poster Comment: WOW! What "news"! That (imo) vile skank kardashian getting botox is a STUNNING admission. Someone get a rope! String her up! .
