Links: 2009-03-17
Happy St. Patrick’s Day. I hope you have a good one.
Going forward in the links I will have a main link section of up to 15 links. But I will also add a few extra sections on:
- Blogs I have started following
- Technology (I am a tech nut, but sometimes the tech stories d not relate to global finance)
- Foreign-language links
- Re-posts (whenever an old post has relevance, I will re-post it and put it on the homepage and here in the links.
Here are the main links. Others can be found in the news feed (also available via RSS).
Enjoy.

- A populist interpretation of the latest Boom-Bust cycle This post is highly relevant to the revelations at AIG and to the constant chatter about Goldman Sachs. I believe a populist response to this crisis is building in the U.S. and elsewhere. Comments are appreciated.
