Yes that's good enough for a start. Thanks.

I am glad something in the blog speaks to you. As for Hungary I tend to use http://portfolio.hu/en/ and then follow stories from there if needed.

Most of my sources are internet. I have very little access to any inside info. I tend to check things with posts at Zerohedge and when they cite a paper I tend to follow through to the original. I also find useful hints of stories at Tickerforum. Of the mainstream I read Bloomberg, MarketWatch and Reuters. Depending on the story I consult local englisj language papers in China, Singapore and a few general European news web sites.

Is that good for a start?

Rob,

I could hardly beleive it either. Don't you just love the illogical logic of econmists. Imagine that thinking applied to a person. " He's so sick already he's bound to get better and certainly can't get worse!"

Sure doc, sure.

Thanks Lars.

I'll take a read this evening.

I've been following your blog for a long time now and like what you put up. It offers a very refreshing alternative to what one reads in the daily papers. One thing that occurs to me time and again is where do you get your information from, Internet? other sources? Would it be possible to put up a few. Concerning Hungary, I've only been to Budapest but it is a beautiful city. I'd reccommend going if you have the time.
