Stockmarket swings and Twitter fights hackers
Global business news, with live guests and contributions from Asia and the USA.

Africa's richest man tells the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ he's investing another five billion dollars across the continent, in what he says is a vote of confidence in Africa's economic potential.

To discuss the day's business news and issues, we're joined in Singapore by David Kuo of the Motley Fool financial website and in the US by Peter Morici, Professor of International Business at the University of Maryland.
