Over the weekend I added a piece to the right sidebar called “What I’m Reading”. I’m not a particularly avid reader, but I am always reading something. The last book was Riding the Iron Rooster: By Train Through China which my in-laws gave me and turned out to be a fascinating look at China. It took place in the 80s and a lot of things have changed in China since then but it gave a good look at parts of China that most people don’t see. I was impressed with Paul Theroux.

Despite the heart-stopping title of my current read, it’s actually a very good book. Not something I’d suggest as “entertainment” reading but good nonetheless. I’ve even started to add all of the economic indicators in the book to my Outlook calendar with links so I can check them when they’re released. Reading about what data is available and what that data means to the various markets has been interesting.
