I like to wander around and see what is going on too. I can't understand how most of the businesses in this town make money :) Mainly I check in here and follow up the leads, and for Aussie news theaustralian.com.au. A lot of days I buy a real physical newspaper. Usually the New York Times, sometimes the Wall Street Journal. I used to follow Ed Yardeni and now I get e-mails from John Mauldin that are sometimes interesting. At the moment I am not trying to pick stocks for investment ideas. I outsource that to fund managers :) and concentrate on TA based speculation. When I lived in Aus where the economy is much smaller I felt that I had a better flow of ideas on the stock-picking front and could get into some IPOs. A couple of the IPOs became my best investments (Colonial, AAPT etc.) alongside some of the mutual funds I chose. Here it seems too confusing. So I concentrate on my comparative advantage. I only read the Economist when I am travelling. I used to haev a subscription when I was a grad student, but their attitude pissed me off too much LOL. I was much more left wing then, but also they always think they know best.
