I met up with my colleague and fellow TIME Davos blogger Michael Elliott at the Kaffeeklatsch in downtown Davos, where we sat in front of my MacBook Pro and discussed the big opening session on the global economy that Michael is moderating Wednesday morning. We both agreed afterward that he probably shouldn’t have worn the hat, but we weren’t going to go and do the whole thing over again:
(WASHINGTON) — A Democratic-controlled Senate panel Tuesday approved a $2.50 increase in airline security fees that would double the per-passenger fee for those taking nonstop flights.
MOSCOW — Global stocks enjoyed one of their best days in weeks on Tuesday ahead of a summit of European leaders that’s expected to be dominated by calls to boost economic growth.
Europe remains the focus of attention across all financial markets in the run-up to the June 17 Greek election that could go a long way to determining the country’s membership of the euro as well as the future of the single currency zone.
