BUSINESS WEEKLY
As General Motors declares bankruptcy and eastern Europe slides in deeper economic crisis, Lesley Curwen goes in search of economic green shoots. The bright side of this week's business news.
Green shoots or just more weeds? Even though GM is mired in bankruptcy and eastern Europe is tottering on the brink of crisis, some are seeing signs of recovery. Barrack Obama's economic guru, Larry Summers, and Poland's original shock therapist, Leszek Balcerowicz, are two people spotting reasons to be cheerful. Plus why Wall Street's beloved desk-top deal-trophies are a thing of the past, and why Peru's government is bailing out heavy industry in one of the world's most polluted cities. The brightest and the filthiest of the week's business news in the company of Lesley Curwen.
