Fun Fact About Yourself: As a child, my musically-inclined parents (a quality I did not inherit) forced our whole family to sing and record Christmas carols every year. They subsequently burned these songs to CDs, designed an album cover, and distributed to everyone we knew in our neighborhood as a holiday card. Needless to say, I now have built up a strong tolerance to embarrassment.

Long before Jeff Orlowski’s new docudrama, The Social Dilemma (2020) aired on Netflix, people were commenting on the pros, but mostly cons, of social media use. It’s addictive, it’s nonsensically angry, and it affects mental health. Orlowski covers all these subjects in his documentary but with a twist —he interviews former significant employees of Google, Facebook, Instagram, and other social media entities.

The players in the film include Justin Rosenstein who designed Facebook’s “Like” button with the intent to spread “love and positivity;” Tristan Harris, a former design ethicist at Google, and now co-founder of Center for Humane Technology, and Tim Kendal, a founder of Pinterest and a former director of monetization at Facebook. They discuss the dangers of social media from several perspectives. Almost all point to the notion that social media is in reality “surveillance capitalism,” and that virtual places, like Facebook have created a simultaneous “utopia...

A handful of companies are thriving in the post-Covid world. Apple. Amazon. Zoom. And then there’s Robinhood. If you had asked in 2019 who the winners might be in an economy-shattering pandemic, who would have guessed a retail brokerage app? Welcome to 2020.

Robinhood says it’s democratizing finance. And that’s a great sales pitch—so great, in fact, that brokerages have been using it for decades.

Charles Merrill perfected that spiel after World War II, when he set out to take “Wall Street to Main Street.” His firm, Merrill Lynch, brought stock investing to an unparalleled number of regular people. Charles Schwab’s namesake brokerage, which slashed brokerage commissions in the 1970s, had a similar marketing gambit. E-trade did pretty much the same thing.

Robinhood is following a well-trod path to brokerage disruption—cut fees, target a new generation of traders, preach financial democratization—but the speed of the seven-year-old company’s rise is causing...

Fun Fact About Yourself: A few years ago, when I was considering going back to graduate school, I thought it might be beneficial to learn how to bartend so I could work part-time as a bartender while going to school wherever school may be. While working my 3rd or 4th shift as a bartender on the weekends for a hotel, I met one of my former bosses while serving her dinner. She told me there was an Analyst position open on her team. Long story short, after doing some research, I applied for the position; a few months later, I got the job and was on my way to a new city.

(Kitco News) - The world of precious metals trading continues to get murkier as one former Deutsche Bank AG analyst told a Chicago jury earlier this week that he was taught how to manipulate gold and silver prices by the two successful senior traders he worked with for about three years.

During his testimony in court, David Liew said that after joining the bank’s Singapore office, he began making “spoof” trades the way he was taught by Cedric Chanu and James Vorley. He added that Chanu and Vorley often placed buy and sell orders they never intended to execute, a strategy intended to influence prices so they could reap illegal profits.

The latest testimony is just part of the government’s case against the two Deutsche Bank AG traders who are facing charges...

Hanoi’s shophouses, narrow, terraced structures lining alleyway-like streets bustling with vendors and motorbikes, have survived foreign occupation of the country, wars and revolution. Now they are under pressure from a modernizing economy.

Departmental budgets have endured widespread cuts as business schools around the globe grapple with the coronavirus pandemic, according to a new survey from the MBA Career Services & Employer Alliance.

As the pandemic extends into its seventh month, MBA CSEA, a nonprofit association for those working in graduate business career services or employing MBAs, released its latest snapshot of the Covid-affected state of world graduate business education. The new survey shows the internal effects of months of lockdown, pared-down curricula, decimated travel, and virtual instruction: Two-thirds of the overwhelmingly U.S.-based respondents said their departments’ budgets have been slashed, while a slim majority said departmental vacancies are being left unfilled.

Overall, however, a plurality of survey respondents say wholesale restructuring is not underway — at least not yet.

The Black and mixed-race experience with Afro hair is a complicated one. Though each individual has their own personal journey with their natural hair, most share similar experiences with regards to overcoming deep-rooted hair discrimination, as well as developing a true sense of self in the face of Western beauty ideals. Nostalgic memories filled with colourful hair bobbles, and trips to the hair salon with family and friends, are easily overshadowed by those of uncomfortable workplace encounters, or of simply being made to feel not beautiful enough.

The natural hair movement has seen many Black and mixed-race people growing out their hair, chopping off relaxer-thinned strands, using kinkier hair extensions, or wearing traditional braided styles, in order to embrace – or begin the journey towards truly loving – their natural hair.

But discrimination against Afro-textured hair has made it harder for Black and mixed-race people to navigate the world, and the...
