If you are interested in finding up to date information on how the economy is doing, Bloomberg.com is a great resource to start with. It’s a reputable financial website that includes loads of information on the current market situation, and much more. If you are just beginning to learn about investing and finance, you will appreciate the glossary containing explanations for confusing acronyms and other financial lingo.
The site contains information on stocks and bonds, and has well-written articles describing unemployment, the growth or decline of retail sales, and other interesting tidbits that will give you an idea of how the economy is doing.
One of its great features is a wide variety of financial calculators for savings, loan payments, retirement, mortgages, currencies, and more. There is also “breaking news” on subjects such as Politics, Law, Arts and Culture, Sports, Science, etc. in addition to the current financial news.
The site is not limited to just one location either. It contains information on the Americas, Asia, as well as Europe. I find it very informative and I like the layout of the site a lot.
Bloomberg.com is worth checking out to keep on top of things. Whether you are a novice or an experienced investor, you will be able to appreciate the information and tools available to you.
