This is a great news report from Zimbabwe via Al Jazeeera. It examines the ‘fantastic returns’ on the Zimbabwe stock exchange – and how traders are becoming ‘paper millionaires’. ‘Traders are astounded by the performance’. ‘Stock soar despite inflation’. I kid ye not.

I love zerohedge.com – a great financial markets website – very much sympathetic to the Austrian-School world view.
To my mind, this is a great explanation of the stock market ‘rally’ of the last year.
