Macro Crude: Understanding Finance and The Global Economy (Oil, Stocks, Commodities, Currencies)Author: Macro Crude
The intention of macro crude is to give you a very simple view on key movers of the macro economy, the world of oil, politics. The intersection of what moves currency markets, key themes for stocks, bonds. And really understanding the world of finance - one day at a time - and in punchy audio sessions which are less than five minutes. We will publish charts on our twitter account that cover interesting themes across major markets - whether its a chart on oil inventories in China - or a chart on the unemployment rate in the US, vote counts and we will distill it into a fact based view - while connecting the dots for you in the world of finance. With the hope that this will be both a learning opportunity, invite a discussion and more importantly be a platform that sparks ideas and debate around key macro crude topics that impact our lives.
