\n\tBy Rudi Filapek-Vandyck<\/span>, Editor FNArena<\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tI joined Twitter. Not because I am curious what this celebrity has to say about her kids, or to read that another one is waiting for a connecting flight, impatiently. Twitter allows me to follow news and commentary sources such as Dow Jones' Marketwatch<\/span>, Bloomberg News and the Wall Street Journal. It assists me in keeping up with what is happening across the globe, while I am observing and analysing<\/span> financial markets myself.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile I am on Twitter, reading a quote here and a news flash there, I offer my own succint<\/span> insights and commentary. Those amongst you who have already discovered the virtues of a Twitter account can add my Tweets to their daily news via @filapek<\/span>.<\/p>\n

\n\tFor those who have no intention to join Twitter, but would like to stay up to date, below are my Tweets from the week past:<\/p>\n

\n\t– JP Morgan concludes Global Aug PMI surveys suggest odds in favour<\/span> of weak IP and GDP data in months ahead, esp<\/span> US and Emerging Asia concern<\/p>\n

\n\t– Not that market is actually paying attention but… seasonally adjusted the Aug PMI in China was actually down, the HSBC survey is below 50<\/p>\n

\n\t– The underlying message from China's PMI surveys seems to be disaster avoided, but not a flash and swift rebound either<\/p>\n

\n\t– Interesting… historically such a low reading in US Cons Confidence has proved to be an accurate contrarian<\/span> indicator on 6 months horizon<\/p>\n

\n\t– Historical analysis shows August's big drop in Conf<\/span> Board's Cons Confidence only happened once (Sep 2005) without a subsequent recession<\/p>\n

\n\t– Boring observation, I know, but doesn't 2011 look a whole lot like 2010? Same dynamics, same issues, same focus,.. same rally?<\/p>\n
