Try India, says analyst/blogger

As I close a fairly slim week on the blog, it’s a pleasure to introduce another British investing Blogger. He’s Graeme Pietersz, an analyst who moved to Sri Lanka after the dot.com bust and went it alone as an analyst and writer. He took some time out from blogging to write Money Terms, a kind of super-glossary in which he describes what finance terms mean to analysts, in words you and I can understand.
Having spent some time on private equity recently, and knowing even the industry has trouble defining itself, I looked it up in his glossary. He does a good job making the distinction between venture capital and buy-out. And the good news is, after a little goading from me, Graeme is back and blogging every day.
Graeme describes himself as a growth investor with a focus on tech, mid-cap pharma, telecoms and media). Earlier this week, he picked up on our cautionary note on China to suggest investors try India. Given where he lives, and what he does, it’s worth a look 
NB. My list of UK investment bloggers has grown to three, two, or one, depending on who you include:
- Web Cab Investments (from the Isle of Man, which is not strictly part of the UK)
- The AB Enquirer (an Exiled New Zealander. If they beat us in the cricket today, his status on our blogroll is in jeopardy), and…
- Graeme (who lives in Sri Lanka).
If the joke’s wearing thin, start a blog or a website. I’ll tell you how!
… On the subject of glossaries, Reuters have one. It’s a ‘wiki’ meaning anybody can write a defintion, or change an existing definition. Unlike Graeme’s, it doesn’t mention private equity, though, so it’s failed my test.
