  • Great US centric coverage

    Always good content with sharp market insight. Informed, intelligent and utterly lacking in pomposity (the Taco Trade?). Three smart presenters, though one’s Bridget Jones style of delivery can be a bit (sometimes more than a bit) tiring. But overall it’s splendid.
