"Papaconstantinou said it will take some time for spreads to narrow and there will be no need for extra measures to shore up the nation’s finances as long as Greece’s stability pact is implemented “correctly,” according to an e-mailed transcript of his interview with ANT1 television" (Bloomberg).

Mohamed El-Erian, co-chief investment officer at Newport Beach, California-based Pacific Investment Management Co., said that Greece’s woes will “get worse before they get better.” (in the Financial Times).

Who do you believe? - can't see why anyone should panic now, people have known about these difficulties for ages!.
