Intervju med Unga Aktiesparare
För vissa är det lika självklart som att handla mat, för andra känns det krångligt, svårt och omständigt. Att investera sina pengar och handla på aktiemarknaderna är något alla kan ha nytta av, och oavsett tidigare förkunskaper kan föreningen Unga Aktiesparare vara ett alternativ för den intresserade . Med över 12.000 medlemmar (varav över 400…
The Hunt for Red October
By the time you are reading this, a look out of the window is not likely to be a cheerful one; viewing a dull landscape of grey and brown. However, had you read this piece two weeks earlier that view would likely have been considerably more pleasant. During the latter half of October, a very…
Är mental ohälsa “inne”?
Nådiga Lundtan besökte i oktober Studentafton på AF-Borgen där Ann Heberlein var huvudgästen för kvällens samtal om mental ohälsa. ”Vem vill inte vara som Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf eller Mikael Persbrandt”, säger Ann Heberlein och syftar på att bipolär sjukdom glamouriserats på sista tiden. Hon påpekar att sjukdomen inte alls anses lika glamourös för sjuksköterskan i…
Let us talk about economic indicators
Traditional ways of looking at in which direction the economy is heading includes consumer confidence index, purchasing manager index, housing market, and job creation. Forget the old school way of looking at the economy for a while and consider some slightly more unexpected or unorthodox ways of predicting the economic future. Predicting the future has…
Who Threatened Lund University?
Usually Jodel, an app similar to Twitter, is filled with drunken regret, anxiety for upcoming exams and other parts of a student’s life, but not on the 11th of October. On the 11th of October someone posted a message on Jodel warning people of going to Lund university and instead watch the news. The threat,…
Editorial #124

Walking past Lund university library, I think even the most pro-summer person would agree with me, when…
Vice President’s Column #123
The other day I read my horoscope, something I usually do not believe in, but for once it was spot on. It said that now is a time for change and new impressions. That is exactly what I am facing right now. As I am writing this, it has been 64 days since I took…
President’s Column #123
The semester has started and all students are finally back in Lund and at LUSEM. During the summer Skånis has been very empty and quiet, but now the house is filled with students again, ready to take on the new semester. Lund is a city like no other – one of its qualities is that…
Intervju med Light
Samarbetet Europas länder emellan står just nu inför ett omfattande test. Förutom de interna ekonomiska problem som legat och irriterat Eurosamarbetet en längre tid, har externa konflikter nu gjort att enorma flyktingströmmar rör sig i riktning mot fred, stabilitet och säkerhet. Europa har inte sett en migration liknande den som nu pågår sedan andra världskriget,…
LundaEkonom Out & About: Philip Wrangberg (Singapore)
I was sitting on the bus the other day, and was continuously met with strange glances and stern looks. I had been in a rush that morning so I was wondering whether I had a weird hairdo or perhaps I had a stain on my shirt. Then I realised it. I was chewing gum. I…
