Europe Catches a Cold
from the the-bigger-they-are-the-more-the-others-feel-them-fall dept
As the US economy's slowdown seems to be bottoming out, it seems Europe's is begining to slip. The Bank of England is poised to cut interest rates in response to this slowdown and the number unemployed in Germany has started to increase. When the US economy started to slow I remember many prominent European officials stating that Europe was large enough not be affect, I guess they were wrong!
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

I have to admit they were both really interesting articles and at the time it seemed that Europe was escaping the slow down but then of course indicators have in the past month or so started showing a slow down in Europe.
