Great discussions on current economic developments
High level, basic talk on topics. Often bring speakers that have little data to support claims. Far from SMEs.
Great coverage. Great reporters, announcers and interesting educational stories.
This show has been very informative and interesting. I love the style with which the host welcomes listeners to delve deeper into various economic subjects with correspondents and experts. (Also, in my opinion, the recent episode relating to European defense spending was just the right length.)
In answer to the question … longer versions of Econ World or not: Please provide both (as required). The deep dives are well worth the time spent and the shorter versions work too. This is not an “or” decision, it is an “and” opportunity. Thanks for all this deep and valuable information. It is difficult to find information that one can trust … Reuters is a place where I “feel safe”.
