Bulls in the China Shop
By Malcolm Stacy
Hello Share Fanciers,
We are entering a dangerous period. My daughter, having finished her GCSE exams, has now started a protracted summer holiday. I can't remember my getting so many weeks off school.
She has developed a craze for Monopoly and the dangerous bit is that she will keep asking me to play this game, which at my time of life, I find tires me.
Back in the share world, the Chinese also seem to be playing Monopoly. Hardly a day passes before we hear that they have landed on a tasty square and have bought up property. The property I'm talking about is companies all over the world.

101 WAYS TO SAVE MONEY
By Tom Winnifrith
Every week, ShareCrazy will excerpt a part of Tom Winnfrith's book 101 ways to save money in a recession.
Number 35: General electricity bills can also be slashed
The simplest way is by changing your light bulbs to energy-saving light bulbs. These cost GBP4-8 each so are far more expensive than a normal light bulb but they last eight times longer than a normal higher watt bulb and they use only 25% of the power. As such the installation of one energy saving light bulb can save you up to GBP70 over its lifetime. Now, I bet your parents told you to switch off light bulbs to save money. They were correct. Leaving two normal light-bulbs on for two hours will cost you about 3p. Okay, that does not sound like a lot but if you think of how many times you leave lights on at night which you could have switched off or leave lights on during the day when you are out…it all adds up. My biggest offence in this category is leaving my laptop on all night so that I do not have to switch it back on and re-enter keywords to log on in the morning. This is criminal. Leaving my PC on overnight wastes enough money to microwave six meals. (Not that those meals come from Delia, you understand, or will understand after reading point 81.) While we are on the subject, turn your microwave off at the socket when not using it - otherwise it will simply be the most expensive-to-run digital clock you will ever own.

BOOK OF THE WEEK By Wilhelm Hankel and Robert Isaak
A book review by Emanuil Halicioglu of Growth Equities & Company Research Democratic capitalism, one of the greatest civilising forces known to man, has been pushed to the edge of a precipice. A brave new world economy, one not in thrall to a runaway interbank credit system, is struggling to be born, and only the actions of world policymakers, working in concert to make the hard choices, can bring it into being.
