Barrons: The Three Big Trends to Watch Internationally

By SIMON CONSTABLE

When George Evans, portfolio manager of Oppenheimer International Growth (ticker: OIGAX), isn't worrying about what the future will look like for his investments, it's likely that he'll be reading for pleasure.

The native of the U.K., who graduated from Oxford with a joint bachelor's and master's in geography, and then earned an M.B.A. from Wharton, says he reads an "enormous amount," including history, armchair science, and novels. Though this reading is not directly tied to his day job, "You never know where ideas come from," he says. "It's tremendously important to read extensively." See original story here.
