is this for real and should I be angry? Cathie Wood and ARK are selling too. While putting out a report with a price target of $4,600 for TSLA, they’ve been taking profits and trimming their TSLA position in their flagship ARKK fund from al

That Brian Chesky video is incredible. I hope if any fallout - AirBnB manages to stay afloat.

This has been the most infuriating thing, and as someone who works in media - can trace it directly back to the hire of the former Time Inc COO: https://www.ozy.com/the-new-and-the-next/can-she-make-brands... They turn

this is kind of the perfect example - in theory, the secondary market should correctly price the ISAs based on the quality of the students being graduated. But there is a significant lag built in on the pricing. It would probably be a few c

The other two major parts of this: Facebook's ad model is built to reward "virality" - meaning being over the top and salacious means lower costs. Even Boz acknowledges that was part of the Trump team's genius - they use

How do they not address the actual financials? (saying "Numbers aside" and then digging into the strategy shift). I'm more curious - out of the $200mm they are projecting this year, or the $100mm they made last year - what di

Ellen Pao. Harvard Law, Harvard MBA, time at Cravath (very, very fancy law firm) and partner at Kleiner (which I imagine most of us know) is now to be the head of Reddit? I am a firm believer that most media out there is not extracting enou

Main difference is stories aren't fact-checked before discussing. In the end the right information ends up disseminated probably as often as a standard news story, it's just the 'sausage is made' in the public eye vs. in

Would disagree here. Facebook as a platform promotes feel-good stuff and it's been self-reinforcing. It makes the space more attractive to advertisers and everyone "wins" (while we all lose). I still however believe people ar

This is a perfect combination of every short-sighted, angry old media, and old man rant I've ever come across. I mean, to go from hating on BuzzFeed to somehow ending up on the "Africa is one single country and let's help it&
