A time for transition, Part 2

By Barbara Kiviat | January 22, 2010 | +

The Curious Capitalist is getting curiouser. As Justin takes his leave, we’re adding three new voices to the Curious Capitalist. They belong to these people:

Let me introduce, from left to right, John Curran, Bill Saporito and Steve Gandel.

John edits Time.com’s business coverage. He likes to talk to investors and follow the stock market. Eight years ago, he gave me my first job at Time Inc. (at Mutual Funds magazine), so we can all thank him for that.

Bill edits Time magazine’s business coverage. He has lots and lots of opinions. I often tell people he’s the best editor I’ve ever had, though I won’t say that right now since I was just talking about another one of my (also wonderful) editors.

Steve came to Time about a year ago from Money magazine. He has already written a number of great stories for us, and he can cover what banks are up to like nobody’s business. He sits right next door to me.

Welcome to the Curious Capitalist, fellas. We’re going to have a great time.

Next week I’ll be blogging away from Davos. John, Bill and Steve will start wading in soon.

Barbara!

Stocks Rally Further in Run-up to EU Summit

MOSCOW — Global stocks enjoyed one of their best days in weeks on Tuesday ahead of a summit of European leaders that’s expected to be dominated by calls to boost economic growth.

Europe remains the focus of attention across all financial markets in the run-up to the June 17 Greek election that could go a long way to determining the country’s membership of the euro as well as the future of the single currency zone.

Welcome John, Bill, and Steve! Barbara, are YOU going to be the new chief of this blog, will one of the new guys, or are all four of you going to emulate the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and be a collective group without a permanent conductor / leader?
.
And good luck in Davos. I can hear Homer Simpson murmur “Daaaavossss…” until he realizes it’s NOT a brand of Swiss chocolate. Barbara, I hope you run into / interview many top brass and media starlets (Maria Bartiromo, Becky Quick, etc.). Have fun and good luck taking over this blog.

Thanks, deconstructiva. We’re going to be fairly chiefless—it’s a group effort! Oh, and when we had our meeting about the future of the CC, I brought along all your comments. Thanks for those.
