標準普爾誤降法國評級

????今年11月,，標準普爾（Standard & Poor's）錯誤地發(fā)出警告,，稱公司已經調低法國的AAA信用評級。消息一出,，有人大罵“該死,！”。當然,，也許還有更多更精彩的言論,。

????之后,，這家評級機構很快澄清此事，稱該信息屬于誤發(fā),，并歸咎于技術問題,。

????但這一過失卻戳到了許多法國人的痛處，因為外界普遍認為法國極有可能失去其AAA評級,。本月早些時候,，法國和其他大多數(shù)歐元區(qū)國家均被標準普爾列入了降級觀察名單。不過到目前為止,，法國的AAA評級尚安然無恙,。——本?魯尼

S&P downgrades France - by mistake

????Standard & Poor's prompted calls of zut-alors!, and probably other more colorful remarks, after it mistakenly sent an alert in November saying it had changed France's AAA credit rating.

????The ratings agency quickly clarified that the message was sent in error, citing technical difficulties.

????The gaffe hit a raw nerve for many in France, which is widely seen as the most likely candidate to lose its AAA status. Earlier this month, France and most other euro area nations were placed on review for a possible downgrade by the S&P. For now, France's AAA rating remains intact. -- Ben Rooney
