Good weekend reading from respected bruddasites*

Gary sees the bottom in metals prices, and FWIW I agree with him. I'm going to cook some fish for lunch and ponder on how to arrange my own thoughts, then write later. Meantime check out the Biiwii view. This guy will make you money if you know how to read him.

Over at sapitos de la noche our hero was hit by a car in Caracas this week. No joke. Read all about it, and also note that hedgehog is beginning to discover why I have comments on "moderated only" at this blog now.

At Memory in Latin America, Lillie discovers Google Reader (which is cool). She also sheds light on two of my fave blogs, "The Mex Files" and Abiding in Bolivia". Get down to the Aymara beat, people.

Brad Setser is back from his short break, and it looks like batteries fully recharged. Four knockout posts on the macro worldview of money. The first link is to the front page so you can check out all four easily, but I particularly liked this note on Saudis and oil, which really puts some perspective on the sector. I don't link him on the right, but only because everybody else does. If you invest, imho Setser's blog on your RSS feed is obligatory. Best of breed.
