Assuming you want real-time data, this is the sort of thing that would cost a fair amount of money. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. But, from what I can see, this is merely meant as a useful tool for those who are interested in commod

I actually work in commodities and I think this is a cracking tool from a quick glance over. I love the extracts you get when you click on a particular news story. The design could be tweaked a little, but the content is great. Do you place

To play the other side of this, while I was interning in a big bank my friends in M&A were in work at 6AM and getting in at midnight, every day, even the weekends. They loved it. Bashing on it because it isn't your cup of tea isn't part

This may be a bit of quiet topic now but I still thought I'd throw in my comments. I interned at a start up in my penultimate year and it was both a great experience, and I got paid (not a lot, but enough). I got to learn about business pra
