This and that...


DUDE.  Is anyone actually still following/reading this blog?  
Probably not... it's all good though :)


So economic news headlines...



  • A former Democratic congressman says his party “set him up” after he opposed health care. His claim was dismissed after everyone realized that to set him up, Democrats would have had to work together.
  • Two oldest people in the US died.  No one took out stocks on their lives.  No one made money.
  • Canada's budget 2010... should not have taken months to finish.  Pretty basic stuff going on; making lives easier for international investors, making life harder for those with bad teeth and mother earth.  $19 billion in new federal stimulus.  Ooh and we now get plastic money! [insert bad joke here]
  • Cisco made a faster internet router.  It now has a market cap of 149.67B... 
  • Stocks climbed at midsession Tuesday, following a choppy morning, as investors mulled the latest corporate deal and profit news on the one-year anniversary of the bear market bottom.  Stocks now cost more.

Add your own newsworthy links in the comments!  Or not...

  1. We've really fallen apart, haven't we..

    I promise I'll post the stuff from my economics class! ..someday.

    Basically what we've looked into so far has been the banking system, currency, and stocks to some degree. Very macro-ish-economy stuff.
