Sweet and Spicy: what's the buzz on honey infusions? | SaltWireMARRAKECH - The euro zone labour market shows no sign of softening, despite a near recessionary environment and a record string of interest rate hikes, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said on Saturday.

"The labor market still shows no real sign of weakening," Lagarde told a conference."The numbers we see both in terms of actual participation in the unemployment and unemployment in nominal numbers are quite striking."
