While some will be tempted to treat today's Chesapeake filing as an exception due to company-specific issues and shale energy disruptions, it's unfortunately part of an historic surge in US corporate bankruptcies that is just starting to build momentum. This surge is also part of a great COVID-led dispersion involving big winners and big losers (not just corporates but also households). It will result in greater industrial concentration. And it involves the one risk that the Fed cannot shield investors from – that of permanent capital impairment. #Chesapeake Chesapeake Energy #energy #markets #bankruptcy #investing #investors …see more

Think about this... If you found a slot machine that paid out 5.1 cents for every nickel you put into it, you would hock your house and leverage yourself to the hilt to find nickels to feed it. This is the difference between searching for causation (a narrative) and finding a mathematical correlation that predicts an action with high confidence. …see more

When steam power was first used in factories, huge beam engines were installed and for about 20 years they used them to pump water up to reservoirs to drive waterwheels. We have departments running on fax machines, we use paper passports and ink stamps when we travel, we use more paper than ever before in the office . In 1970's the IEC introduced a standard electrical plug, it's used only by Brazil and South Africa, we've instead 14 type of power socket in the world and now USB A, B, and C. $3,000 bn of transactions are handled on COBOL, a code written in 1959 So forgive me if I don't think AI or Blockchain will rewire the world fast. And trust me that means we should focus on the simple steps we can undertake now to improve products and customer service today. …see more
