What explains the protracted investment decline in the new EU member states?

in
Following Europe’s financial crisis of 2008-09, the ten new EU member states (EU 10) have experienced a sharp drop in capital formation, in total by almost 20 per cent peak-to-trough.

The Chinese Year of Snake: A Market Twisting High and Low

in

The current macro backdrop should bolster asset prices from equities to commodities.
