Ow!

One notch per quarter would probably have been a little less drastic.

Has a nation that has not been under military takeover or plague ever been knocked down 5 notches at one time?

10-year bond now at 8.667%, will an Irish person will be able to pay even the interest on a half million+ per capita owing?
