Business as unusual: Russian ambassador shot, Berlin market crash, & more - with Jasper Lawler
Europe's equity markets are trading higher, helped by a busy year-end for corporate deal making and further signs that Italy is making progress on shoring up its weak banking sector. However, business is taking place against an uncertain backdrop, underscored by the assassination of Russia's ambassador to Turkey and the murder of 12 people at a Christmas market in Berlin which police have described as a "probable terrorist attack". Concerns about Greece have also emerged on the financial radar after the US credit ratings agency Moody's said the country is about to enter a troubling new phase in its seven year old debt crisis. For more analysis, Share Radio's Juliette Foster was joined on the line by Jasper Lawlor, senior market analyst at London Capital Group.

Sturgeon plans to keep Scotland in single market - with Maurice Smith
Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has today announced her proposals to keep the country in the European single market. The first minister says Scottish membership of the European Economic area and European Free Trade Association would allow it to stay part of the UK but still enjoy single market access. She previously suggested there could be another independence referendum if the proposals are dismissed by the UK Government - but she doesn't think that'll happen. For more analysis, Share Radio's Juliette Foster was joined on the line by Maurice Smith, Share Radio's Scotland Correspondent.

Terrorism strikes both Germany and Russia - with Ian Bond
Germany is in mourning after twelve people were killed at a Christmas market in Berlin in what Chancellor Angela Merkel described as a "probable terrorist attack". A man drove a lorry into crowds who had gathered at the market near the city's main shopping street. Meanwhile, Russia says it will boost security at all its embassies after the country's ambassador to Turkey was assassinated by an off duty policeman hours before the Berlin attack. Ian Bond is Director of Foreign Policy at the Centre for European Reform, and joined Share Radio's Juliette Foster on the line for more on these stories.

The Weeks Update: Trump risks trade war with China
Donald Trump's promise to create more jobs played well with crowds especially in regions hit hard by the decline of their manufacturing industries. In Mr Trump's world America can only restore its economic greatness by re-negotiating trade accords which have yielded it few, if any, real benefits. To achieve this would mean taking on the likes of China, which the new president elect claims has abused its position to flood the market with cheap goods. With Mr Trump now gearing up to take possession of the White House, how is he planning to make America a top manufacturer, and does that mean risking a trade war with China? For more analysis, Share Radio's Juliette Foster was joined by Professor John Weeks, Share Radio's regular economics commentator.
