Nevertheless, it cannot neglect the problems that appear to him immediately and that have affected their capacity of growth. Robert J. Shiller insists that this is the case. What have to do the pig influenza and the kidnappings with the Colombian economy? Perhaps much more than one it can imagine.

Anyway, with the flagellum of dengue in Argentina we have preoccupation for short while.

The pig influenza is so but so hard that it has not only affected until the moment great amount of people (already causing more than 150 deaths in Mexico), but also has struck to the markets.
