Many analysts believe the ECB will struggle to find all the government bonds it needs, especially top-rated government bonds like those belonging to Germany. Erin weighs in. Barry Eichengreen, professor of economics and political science at UC Berkeley, tells us that, if since 1974, only three countries in the world have run primary surpluses of 5 percent for a full decade, Greece has zero chance of being another. RT’s Lindsay France discusses the upcoming Mobile World Congress and the possibility of never having to deal with roaming charges again! Boom Bust’s Bianca Facchinei takes a look at what initially caused the growing cost of college and the effects we’ve seen from it so far. And in The Big Deal, Erin and Edward Harrison talk about rent prices, student debt, unemployment and more.
