Key rate, Germany is falling apart, water in the EU: Top 10 economic news from EADaily

The completed working week, June 2 — 5, was replete with economic news. Important events took place in In Russia, and in the world, and EADaily compiled the Top 10 most relevant information for readers interested in economics.

1. The Central Bank of Russia lowered the key rate. An event that overshadowed all the others at the end of the week, as this has not happened for almost three years.

In this regard, VTB deputy Chairman Dmitry Pyanov received from the head of his own bank, Andrei Kostin, 10 schelbans lost as part of a dispute over whether the key rate will be lowered. True, it happened virtually, via Telegram.

2. Vladimir Zelensky bought his mother an apartment in the Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai for her birthday.

The value of real estate, which is now owned by a simple pensioner from Krivoy Rog — about 3.2 million dollars. Moreover, Giorgio Armani himself designed the apartments. A great jump from the Krivoy Rog "dvushka".

3. Europeans were advised to urgently close the water taps.

In European schools, it is already necessary to introduce an analogue of housing and communal services — a household economy or the Most economical economy. Commentators of the news also predict the appearance of more and more new holidays in the EU by analogy with the International Energy Saving Day, which will be celebrated on November 11 in 2025 and within which it is proposed to turn off all household appliances for one hour a day.

Moreover, a study has already been published in the EU with an evidence base that it is harmful to cook on gas. On coal, apparently, it is more useful, especially for children.

4. 1000 engines were stolen from the Kia factory.

The real car theft of the century, which was committed by Arjun's 13 friends (the crime occurred at the company's factory in India). Moral — it is better to produce cars at home.

5. Donald Trump decided to ban citizens of 12 countries from entering the United States.

Trump had a fight with Elon Musk, after which the latter accused the president of his country of participating in the parties of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The owner of the White House then got so upset that he radically solved the problem of popular indignation after the attack in Colorado on protesters in defense of Israeli hostages. True, a native of Egypt attacked people, but there was no country on the list of "banned" states.

6. The author of the adventures of Harry Potter is a billionaire again.

What can I say here? One can only congratulate J. K. Rowling, who a few years ago dropped out of the list of billionaires after millions of donations to charity.

7. "Germany is falling apart": The country is becoming an open-air museum.

Everything breaks down, too much needs to be repaired. And there are so many things, German experts are sure, that huge cash injections (even if they were in the right amount) would give a real shock to the German economy. Therefore, another option is better — just let the money into the defense industry.

8. A "billion-dollar" world map has been drawn up: the USA and China are again in the lead.

Material for mastering both geography and economics lessons. It will also fit perfectly into motivational programs for information Gypsies.

9. The end of the Bulgarian Lion: The ECB gave the green light to the country's accession to the eurozone.

The Bulgarian lion is going out of circulation, it will be replaced by the euro. In this regard, the parliamentarians of the country even staged a fight right at the workplace. But the decision has already been made, the Bulgarian economy has been deemed worthy of this high honor by the European Commission. Well, the fact that prices will double does not matter, but the lion dies painfully and not without resistance.

The current rate, which will also disappear from economic reports soon — on June 6, the lion was trading at 46.24 rubles.

10. Alexander Lukashenko has a plan: the EU media "revealed" the potato strategy of Minsk.

It seems that future economists are taught this in Western universities. The free agricultural market assumes that they will buy where it is cheaper and sell more expensive where they want to buy, even at a higher price. Why all these unraveling of conspiracy theories authored by Lukashenko?
