[i]Ratings agency Standard and Poor's has raised the credit rating of Greece's sovereign debt by six levels, praising the "strong determination" of fellow eurozone countries to help it stay as a member state.[/i]

It's been raised 6 levels, but is still low enough to be classed as junk.
I'm sure it's quite easy to raise your rating as long as you're prepared to sacrifice a generation
If only it was just a generation. It is for the future as far as the eye can see, and the death of democracy in Greece.
Out of idle interest, why don't these ratings agencies just **** off ?
seems to me they're even shitter than the banks - the financial equivalent of putting your head out of the window and saying "yeah, it's raining", then calling yourself a weather forecaster. Who needs them to explain that Greece is a bit of a risk ?
