        <Name>Swine Flu and Financial Spread Betting Strategy</Name>
        <Summary>Spread bets should consider swine flu and its effects on financial markets</Summary>
        <Description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif"&gt;Right now, &lt;b&gt;financial spread betting strategy&lt;/b&gt; should keep in mind the impact of swine flu on global financial markets. Swine flu is affecting forex trading, &lt;a href="http://forex.gftforex.com/public/item/231276" target="_blank" title="U.S. dollar, financial spread betting, spread betting, spread betting strategy, spread bets swine flu, financial markets, forex trading, stock markets"&gt;sending the U.S. dollar lower&lt;/a&gt; and also sending the Japanese yen higher as risk aversion sets in.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif"&gt;Concerns about how the &lt;b&gt;swine flu&lt;/b&gt; will affect global trade is also sending tremors through the financial markets. The stock market is being affected. While &lt;a href="item/231279" target="_blank" title="U.S. dollar, financial spread betting, spread betting, spread betting strategy, spread bets swine flu, financial markets, forex trading, stock markets"&gt;U.S. stocks have managed to overcome &lt;/a&gt;the issues afflicting them in early trade, Asian and European &lt;b&gt;stock markets&lt;/b&gt; have not been so fortunate.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt; &lt;font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif"&gt;When creating financial spread betting strategy, it is important to consider the effects that something like swine flu is likely to have on the &lt;b&gt;financial markets&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</Description>
