Invest and beware: you are on your own
Article Abstract:
It is vital to exercise great caution when making investments, even in a climate in the UK where efforts are being made to improve the transparency of financial products. It must be remembered that all financial institutions exist to make money from their customers and that financial advisers generally seek to gain as much commission as possible. It is important to trust nobody and to be aware that stock markets will inevitably fluctuate greatly.

Ghosts of the future rise to haunt Chirac
Article Abstract:
French president Jacques Chirac is currently facing a number of serious challenges. These include the possibility of more national strikes and street protests and the possibility of France not meeting the criteria for entry into monetary union. He finds himself powerless to make wide-reaching changes, as France is essentially an extremely conservative country. He must in particular address the deterioration of France's relationship with Germany.
