Just when world markets got hopeful on the EU bailout plan to save Greece,
Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou spooked the whole world right after Halloween -
by making a surprise announcement that a Greek referendum would be held to decide whether to accept the
bailout for his country. With that, global markets crumbled. Both the DAX and FTSE are off over 5%, Dow has so far lost about 300 points.
Bank stocks are leading the way with 10% drops not at all uncommon as the Greek vote calls into question whether or not the entire deal struck last week will need to be renegotiated.
Papandreou's decision not only spooked the markets, but have angered Germany, France and other EU countries which now regretted they accepted Greece into the EU in 2001.
George Papandreou is the guy who's been part of spending his economy into the ground, refusing to comply with the Maastricht Treaty, and forcing other member nations to bail Greece out, again. Papandreou is also the guy who okayed absurdly generous terms on said bailout before reneging, blithely throwing global financial markets into chaos.
George Papandreou managed to spook the world this week with his announcement, let us now show how he may spook the world with his appearance (werewolf, villain, or any other spooky or otherwise shocking appearance).
