I don't know if there are a lot of people here who are from Scandinavia. For those that are, Danske Bank should be a relatively familiar name. Danske is not a very large bank but large enough to have its own research department. They publish research on fixed income, fx, macro trends etc. I've been reading their publications and decided to share this great resource as I have found it quite useful. I'm not going to post pdfs because you can reach these at on your own via the link below. Research is published almost daily so any attempt at publishing...

realjumper and FXSurfer,
I'm glad you find them useful.
Just as a sidenote to all the people hanging around here: there are a lot of banks, insurance companies (which basically take your stream of premium payments and invest them to make money ie making them similar to pension funds) and investment management companies that have their own research departments. Most of what these companies offer is behind a pay-wall but if you're trading for a living or you're name is Harry Lots-a-Bucks, this is really something to consider. For instance, I'd be very interested in what HSBC, UBS, Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank have to offer. Most of these names are big players in the FX markets and it certainly wouldn't hurt to get a glimpse of what they are offering their clients. If someone from one of those banks is reading this and would like to offer me a free trial, then please don't hesitate! Shoot me a PM!

If you don't risk, you don't ever have to lose.

Here is something interesting to read, written by Hans Werner Sinn. It's a CESifo Forum Special Issue 2010, titled Rescuing Europe and it details the Club Med rescue package, the effect of the euro on the eurozone countries. I found it very interesting reading and I would recommend this to everybody who is interested in macro research. Regardless of what people say about China being the second largest economy, the US and the eurozone together make up around 46% of the world economy, with eurozone accounting for $12.5 trillion or 21.5% of the global...
In the Eurozone, we are talking Germany, France & Netherlands among others
so it's really a collection of huge economies together.And this excludes UK as well. I am not sure the 46% figure you mentioned includes UK or not. UK is definitely not part of the Eurozone, so it's not supposed to be counted.
