European egg market receives good news
Hardly a day goes by without more bad news from the Euro zone, and the impact that European woes are having on the bloc’s trading partners. Lack of agreement, lack of compliance, and debts and problems coming to the fore that were there all along, but somehow overlooked, all seem to spell impending doom.
