How to Bid for the N.F.L.’s Biggest Prize: Team Ownership
Jerry Richardson has said he will sell the Carolina Panthers. But what does it take to become the next member of the exclusive N.F.L. team owners club?
В одной нефтяной столице (well, almost) в нескольких часах лёта от Москвы на центральной улице рядом стоят сразу три палатки МФО (aka кредиты до зарплаты или до конца новогодних праздников под мегапроценты) - «Микроденьги», «Быстроденьги», «Росденьги».
В связи с этим две мысли:
1) Почему бы им не объединиться?
2) Довели страну.

When Falcon Heavy lifts off, it will be the most powerful operational rocket in the world by a factor of two. With the ability to lift into orbit nearly 64 metric tons (141,000 lb)---a mass greater than a 737 jetliner loaded with passengers, crew, luggage…

А почитайте великолепную историю взлёта и падения General Electric и того, какие меры принимает текущий CEO, чтобы вывести компанию из штопора. Захватывающе.
«For most of its 126-year history, GE has exemplified the fecundity and might of corporate capitalism. It manufactured consumer products and industrial machinery, powered commercial airliners and nuclear submarines, produced radar altimeters and romantic comedies. It won Nobel Prizes and helped win world wars. And it did it all lucratively, rewarding investors through recessions, technological disruption, and the late 20th century collapse of American manufacturing.
<...>
But over time, less and less of that income came from technological innovations or manufacturing prowess or even the productivity gains Welch had wrung out early in his tenure. Instead it came from GE’s financial-services arm. From its humble beginnings financing family purchases of refrigerators and dishwashers during the Great Depression, GE Capital had ballooned into a behemoth whose global stable of investments ran from insurance to aircraft leasing to mortgages, giving GE a share of the action during a period when the financial sector was the fastest-growing part of a fast-growing U.S. economy.»

How GE Went From American Icon to Astonishing Mess
Famous for great management, General Electric is staring down a plunging share price, a federal investigation, and possible breakup.
Ну и пока вы только проснулись и почти никто не успел прочесть статью (а я уже прилетел с другого конца России), пара картинок для потомков как пример великолепной работы графредакторов Bloomberg:
Forwarded from Мировая экономика день за днем (Sten)
Колебания индекса VIX (Volatility index) , "индекса страха" c 2006 года. Последние полгода были спокойные до сегодняшнего момента. "Страшно аж жуть"
Ну и раз уж зашёл разговор про VIX - вот, в некотором смысле, обратная корреляция между ним и курсом btc/usd до начала февраля. Красиво. #неблокчейн_chart
