Wall Street warns Calatan crisis is still risk to Spain’s economy

US banking giant Goldman Sachs has said that Catalunya continues to destabilise global markets amid one of the worst weeks for Wall Street where the stock market reached a seven-year low.

According to a report released by the bank, it outlined that Catalunya continued to dictate events not only in the Spanish banking system but also more globally.

The report said: “We continue to see the political events related to Catalunya as an important risk for the recovery of Spain.”

This comes after Spanish PM Mariano Rajoy increased Spain’s growth to 2.5%.

”This year, 2018, we will have a growth forecast of at least 2.5 percent, with the creation of 400,000 jobs,” said Rajoy.

The report comes as the US stock market recovered from a shock week that saw $4 trillion wiped off global stocks as the US Dow Jones tanked 1,175 points.
