The world continues to shrink...capital flows like water to where it is treated best...borders are breaking down.

Is it any wonder Wall Street and its blogs are catching on among Europe’s financial cognoscenti?

Italian-Americans enjoy celebrating the voyage of the Santa Maria, but news first traveled to North America via Viking Ships.

It would appear they build seaworthy blogs as well…

MEDIER. Högkonjunktur betyder gratissprit, mingelfester och ett nytt buzz-ord nästan varje dag. Men det betyder också ett ökat intresse för börsen.

Nu börjar det poppa upp en ny generation Wall Street-bloggar som förenar seriösa iakttagelser med smaskigt skvaller. Nåja, det är kanske mest snask om vi ska vara ärliga. Kul är det i alla fall.

Kolla till exempel in Under The Counter eller DealBreaker. Att läsa dem känns som att sitta med en efter-jobbet-öl och snacka med en trevlig börsmäklare. Eller videobloggen Wallstrip - som förenar ”börskultur med popkultur”.

De svenska börsbloggar som faktiskt existerar är fyllda med diagram, siffror och tragglande teknisk analys. Kort och gott: de är skittråkiga.

Of course, we have no idea if the Swedes are calling us jackasses...and, like most Americans, are far too lazy to learn their language. But we will gladly accept the recognition, ignoring the fact that we had to travel across the globe to get any.

And we want to return the favor...their site blows away anything we have seen in the states.  Too, Swedish imports have been rocking our world for ages...and we don’t mean those boring automobiles produced by Saab or Volvo either.

We are perennially bullish on Scandanavia...for obvious reasons.
