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&#039; <span>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 <span>analysing<\/span> financial markets myself.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhile I am on Twitter, reading a quote here and a news flash there, I offer my own succinct insights and commentary.
