The Crash of European Markets October 3, 2011

Many do not understand how influential the Greek market has been on the American market and markets all over the world. The Asian and European markets have been showing some volatile movement in recent days because the Eurozone debt crisis is becoming an exceedingly worrisome problem.

The world has reason to worry because these problems show the potential problems that will emerge with global economic growth. The markets in Hong Kong, Japan, Frankfurt, London and Paris all dropped significantly this morning. The Dow Jones in the United States also dipped but this drop was not as significant because of the good news that has come from the American economy.

Greece is expected to run out of money this week. The country as a whole has proposed a budget with a huge amount of cuts, but the country has yet to approve it. The only way that the country will financially make it through the next month is if the other European countries decide to pay more into the country to bail them out.
