An Italian Catholic priest disgusted by the effects of unfettered capitalism said on Wednesday that he has decided to ring his church's bells at stock market closing time every day in protest.
"This is a protest against the fact that there are no rules for the markets," Father Giovanni Kirschner, a parish priest in Povegliano near the city of Treviso in northeast Italy, told AFP in a phone interview.
Kirschner said he rings the bells at exactly 5:31 pm (1631 GMT) every weekday -- the time the Milan stock exchange ends its trading session.
