Hobart, Australia

Hobart is famous for apples, and for being near a chocolate factory. Tasmania is small so virtually everything is near the chocolate factory. Awesome apples mainly.

The Hobart graticule lies at -42 degrees latitude, 147 longitude. It encompasses Hobart and immediate surrounds, such as Kingston, Sorell and New Norfolk, and a significant part of the southern midlands, including Oatlands and Ross, as well as Orford and Triabunna on the east coast.

Parts of Hobart are also in the "Huon Valley" graticule at -43 degrees latitude, 147 longitude. Although mostly water, this area also encompasses the Huon Valley, Bruny Island and Tasman Peninsula.

As with other Asia-Pacific locations, the Dow Jones does not open until after the day is mostly over. The short term consensus is to use the location for the previous day.
