Dougherty, Conor and Kathy Shwiff. "Earthquake in Haiti: A Feeble Economy, Knocked Flat." Wall Street Journal, Jan 14, 2010. http://search.proquest.com/docview/399096340?accountid=3360.
From The Wall Street Journal, this source allowed me to get a unique perspective strictly from a business point of view. The periodical stated a couple specific companies which have a base in Haiti, and explained how the disaster impacted their businesses and economic conditions. Providing statistics regarding the population's economic standings, damage costs, and overall economic flow, this article supplied me with information on how the business world sees the pertinent effect which the earthquake made on the Haitian economic system.

This article from the newspaper National Post provided a spectrum of details, explaining Haiti's economic state and plans dating back to 1999, and described its positive and negative strides all the way up until the disaster. Detailing about the catastrophically effective disaster, it tells of many country's perspectives and impacts which Haiti's earthquake had on them. This allowed me to understand the capacity of the economic disaster and how the process by which Haiti's economy improved and worsened, and eventually became as destroyed, if not worse, than it was before.
