☆ Investors should look for the bear market to be over in the first quarter of 2023, Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson says

Investors could see the bear market end as soon as early next year, according to Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson. "We think the market will hold up and that will be another positive catalyst," Wilson told Bloomberg. Wilson noted that the outlook was fluid and he would turn bearish again if the S&P 500 fell below 3650. "We think the market will hold up and that will be another positive catalyst, because if the market doesn't go down on bad news, and the market doesn't go down on bad news and fundamentals, what do you have?" Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel echoed those points, predicting stocks could rally 30% next year as long as the Fed doesn't overtighten the economy and tip the US into a recession.

And in case that hasn’t satisfied interest in all things Dahmer, that will be followed Oct. 7 by “Conversations With a Killer: The Jeffrey Dahmer Tapes,” the latest installment in that docuseries franchise, which in the past has featured Ted Bundy and most recently John Wayne Gacy. While “Monster” might have sought to anticipate certain criticisms, that’s one that Netflix – and indeed, the entertainment industry – hasn’t resolved. “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” is currently playing on Netflix, and “Conversations With a Killer: The Jeffrey Dahmer Tapes” will premiere Oct. 7.

(video) Recomandări de la Mircea, fără spoilere: acum pe Netflix – cinci filme existențiale care te vor ajuta să înțelegi cine eștiCând eram copil, obișnuiam să cred că toate familiile sunt la fel, că au aceleași probleme, rutină și model de educație. Cu acest gând și pentru că totul începe din familie, am pregătit o listă de filme disponibile pe Netflix, despre cinci modele de familii disfuncționale și despre dificultățile cu care se confruntă acestea. O poveste profund personală, chiar înfricoșătoare, în care o femeie învață să trăiască purtând în suflet durerea unei pierderi copleșitoare. Prezentarea cu umor a unei lumi crude pe care o recunoști sau de care trebuie să te bucuri că n-a trebuit să o înfrunți. Boyhood este atât o capsulă nostalgică trecutului recent, cât și o odă adusă maturizării și educării unui copil.
