Why do the UK banks need further funding?

While there is no doubt that the UK economy continues to crash and burn, there is very serious debate across the country as to why the UK banking sector requires special attention and massive funding yet again. There is an argument that many of the problems being experienced by the banking sector have been brought on by greed over the last decade which has seen the quality of loan books reduced and profit margins get tighter and tighter.

More top budget cameras: Best digital cameras under $150

More top budget cameras: Best digital cameras under $150Based on the traffic to my recent Holiday Gift Guide on the best digital cameras for under $200, there are lots of you out there shopping for a bargain this year (surprise, surprise). For some smart options on an even tighter budget, DPReview has posted a excellent roundup of nine compact digital cameras for under $150. This is great since the enthusiast’s site doesn’t usually review such low-end models, and the treatment is refreshing for folks who want an expert’s take without having to wade through the typical 20-page DPReview review. They didn’t bother with most of their studio-based tests, which is fine since they’d be overkill for entry-level cameras (and over the heads of most buyers of entry-level cameras).

Real-World Benchmarks of Ext4

Ashmash writes "Phoronix has put out a fresh series of benchmarks that show the real world performance of the Ext4 file-system. They ran 19 tests on Fedora 10 with changing out their primary partition to test Ext3, Ext4, Xfs, and ReiserFS. The Linux 2.6.27 kernel was used with the latest file-system support. In the disk benchmarks like Bonnie++ Ext4 was a clear winner but with the real world tests the results were much tighter and Xfs also possessed many wins. They conclude though that Ext4 is a nice upgrade over Ext3 due to the new features and just not improved performance in a few areas, but its lifespan may be short with btrfs coming soon."

Australian Dollar Could Fall on Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) Rate Cut Tonight

The Reserve Bank of Australia is anticipated to cut rates for the fourth time in as many months at 22:30 ET on Monday, with a Bloomberg News poll of economists calling for a 75 basis point reduction to a more than 6-year low of 4.50 percent. However, there is some potential for an even more aggressive move, as Credit Suisse overnight index swaps are pricing in at least a 100 basis point cut, which would bring the RBA's cash rate target to the lowest since December 2001. Such a move would likely weigh on the Australian dollar heavily. Overall, Australia is facing major headwinds from financial market instability, which has led to tighter credit conditions, as well as from both domestic and foreign demand. Indeed, global slowdown is hurting exports, something the Australian economy depends on for employment and broad growth.
