I think the world would be a better place if everyone went to a minor league game and learned to keep box-scores. It takes study, undivided attention and real mental effort. It is 100% a meditative practice. Plus hot dogs and community and beer. And I don't even like baseball.
Never get tired of finding Scared Stiff in the wild. (Jupiter bar, Seattle).
With Hester Peirce leaving, we will have the least-functional market regulatory regime in my lifetime. New piece from me at Nadig.com ... it's institutional decay as policy: www.nadig.com/p/stealth-de...
Any NY BlueSky Finance folks? Happy Hour at Stout, Bryant Park. Monday April 27th. Usual time (530-730). I think @ritholtz.bsky.social _Ritholtz and @kgreifeld.bsky.social are already confirmed. But also I'll be there. Because community. #FinTwit #RememberHashtags
Here's a fun table of all the ways we stopped regulating finance and investing. What could possibly go wrong?
Found the good pinball machines at FutureProof Citywide in Miami last night. I’d be the easiest person to stalk ever.

The annual BBH survey on the global ETF landscape is always stellar, and this years is no exception (with contributions from Deb Fuhr at ETFGI). Killer chart: Issuers are getting it: all that matters is trust and relationships. Success is about service now. www.bbh.com/us/en/insigh...
I mean, are you sure he didn't? During the superbowl in 2023? (not my sourcing, reddit, caveat emptor)
Author-narrations complete Stephen King's "Telepathy Loop". (I wrote a bit about it...) www.nadig.com/p/quarks-rep...
There are a few times when I deeply feel the difference between living as simply as I can in the woods vs living busy in a town or a city. Winter Grain-share day at the farm (#70 of flour rice and beans for the year!) is one.
I've had this flag outside my house forever. It's probably on google streetview if they ever come down our roads out here. That, plus 40 years of being honest online and on camera, means I'm *screwed*. Ah well.
SCTV in the early 1980s defined my sense of humor. Also, as a teen it was clear to me: she was a stone cold fox. Funny women have been my "type" ever since. Luckily I married a hilarious woman who's never taken me seriously.
Couldn't be happier with my weekend workstation. Everything I want to know about whatever track is playing, the artist, their upcoming concerts, lyrics, album lists, etc., logged every time a new song comes on. No more chasing a new artist before the song ends!
THis is what the other place says the three most important news stories of today, january 24th are.
