AdvertisementThe three-body problem is unsolvable and chaoticSome of the show's action takes place in a virtual world that's orbited by three suns. "This is a centuries-old problem," Shane Ross, an aerospace and ocean engineering professor at Virginia Tech, told Business Insider. Alpha Centauri is the closest star system to EarthThe three-body system in the story is based on a real neighboring star system called Alpha Centauri. At about 4 light-years from Earth, it's the closest star system to our own and contains three stars: Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B, and Proxima Centauri, which has two planets orbiting around it.

☆ When it comes to explaining market sell-offs, look for the simplest explanation

The simplest explanation for Wednesday's sell-off was that the market was dramatically overvalued and due for a pullback. Look at the Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping ETF (BDRY). BDRY is essentially a play on global shipping, which is itself a play on the state of the global economy. There's an ETF for global shipping companies If you'd rather play global shipping companies directly, there's an ETF for that as well. The SonicShares Global Shipping ETF (BOAT) is a modified market cap weighted ETF that contains all the big global shipping companies: Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Mitsui, Euronav, Matson, AP Moller, Hapag-Lloyd, Maersk, COSCO Shipping, etc.
