Anyone reads The Economist?

Sponger - yes it was Jim Leitner who said he could try and trade solely on the Economist..

Yup, can't argue with that kind of success

 

Not true...I just tried it and all it does is smear feces all over your ass. No absorption qualities with the glossy paper.

 

You're supposed to pinch it off and walk away.

 

It's a piece of junk. Read Fortune magazine.

 

Used to read it, but since it does require a fair bit of time to plow through I've stopped subscribing. It's very good, and opinionated - shame I don't have the time to read it anymore. I don't think it would affect global macro view much, although it would of course be an influence.

 

funny...i'm of the opposite view.

i guess that's what makes a market!

 

I agree, although I wouldn't define Fortune junk

 

All of this wiping your asshole with the economist, and ass paper cuts ir really making me cringe and laugh at the same time!

 

i agree. the economist is the only news source I read other than some headlines of bloomberg.
