Headline of the Week = Irish Economy Resumes Growth After Two-Year Recession
The above is a reflection on headlines today on Bloomberg, in the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal and a heap more . Though few of Contential Europe’s media are as bolshie, different times zones.. Irelands economy nose dived more than most in the recent depression. The (astrologists/ fortune tellers) macro economists (including the ones I studied under last semester) believe that Ireland will regain growth at an above OECD level from 2011. Ireland’s economy being a hyper open international one driven by exports.
Constantin Gurdgiev, the economist has plenty to say on the new figures/ announcements coming out of the ECB. His blog is worth reading for his turn of phase as much as his prozac inducing scientific analysis. I luv his use of language. ‘And there is not a chance sick-puppies, like Irish..’ I don’t know where he gets the time to do it all. I guess it’s his job
I am thinking of going back and resuming my degree in September. It will mean three nites a week at college. Basically my best friends for the next two years will probably be gawd awful academic books and videos such as Phil below ( if you’re studying economics he’s brill).
