I am still on my Easter holiday in Germany and am not writing a lot. However, I did want to pass on some links that I found useful over the past few days. Sorry about the sparseness of the links today. I have limited time and promise you a lot more news links. I should provide excerpts next time I post because I think the excerpts are helpful on where to key in on in the articles. I will have some comments later in the week on the post-bank holiday situation in Cyprus.
Best,
Edward
