New
Book
Release
"
How
I
Trade
for
a
Living"
by
Gary
Smith
"
-
The
dream
of
many
traders
and
active
investors
is
to
be
able
to
successfully
trade
from
home
and
make
a
living
at
it.
While
publications
exist,
which
cover
trading
strategies
by
analysts,
fund
managers,
and
pundits,
there
is
virtually
nothing
available
by
someone
who
is
trading
from
home
successfully.
"How
I
Trade
for
a
Living"
is
a
trading
strategy
by
someone
who
has
been
trading
from
home
profitably
for
over
fifteen
years.
Gary
Smith,
a
well-known
and
lauded
member
in
the
trading
community,
explains
what
it
takes
to
be
a
home-based
trader,
from
the
mental
grit
to
the
basic
hardware.
He
outlines
his
profitable
trading
strategies,
which
can
be
utilised
for
trading
in
individual
stocks,
options
and
bonds,
and
shows
exactly
how
he
uses
them
to
trade
stock
index
futures
and
mutual
funds.
This
excellent
and
very
popular
book
is
available
from
the
Delamere
International
Bookshop.

The
head
of
the
World
Bank,
Robert
Zoellick,
has
agreed
with
China
to
develop
joint
aid
projects
in
Africa.
China
has
been
criticised
over
its
condition-free
aid
and
lending
to
the
continent,
as
it
seeks
energy
sources
and
raw
materials
for
its
industries.

In
the
first
of
a
series
on
China's
new
relationship
with
Africa,
the
BBC's
Adam
Blenford
looks
at
how
their
economic
interests
coincide.

Zimbabwe
is
entering
"totally
uncharted
territory",
the
International
Monetary
Fund's
new
mission
chief
Robert
Sharer
told
ambassadors
at
a
meeting
in
Harare
last
week.
He
noted
there
had
been
an
"exponential
upswing"
in
inflation
since
March
-
comparable
to
that
in
Germany's
post-World
War
1
Weimar
Republic
before
its
demise.

Editor's
Note:
We
must
be
reminded
that
Rhodesia
(now
Zimbabwe)
was
one
of
the
wealthiest
countries
in
Africa.
What
can
we
learn
from
this
experience?

In
what
some
scientists
see
as
another
alarming
consequence
of
global
warming,
thousands
of
Pacific
walruses
above
the
Arctic
Circle
were
killed
in
stampedes
earlier
this
year.

The
number
of
New
Zealanders
moving
to
Australia
in
the
year
to
November
2007
jumped
to
the
highest
in
19
years
as
higher
wages
lured
people
across
the
Tasman,
Statistics
New

said
this
week.
