Networking at a conference typically means rushing into a teeming crowd for coffee breaks and trying to make small talk. As an introvert , that scene isn’t for me.

Babo Schokker. The US dollar has appreciated dramatically over the past fifteen months — from a trade-weighted level of 102 in July 2014 to 120 recently. In some respects, this is a really good thing. Americans can buy all sorts of foreign goods at an almost 20% discount from a year ago.
