☆ Where Walmart CEO Doug McMillon expects inflation to stick around into 2023
  + stars: | 2022-12-15 | by ( Frank Holland | In | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Retail sales slumped on Thursday even though the latest data on consumer prices earlier this week showed a cooling. Grocery sales, responsible for 56% of Walmart's revenue, is a key inflation read for the McMillon and company. McMillon's comments came after November CPI report that showed consumer prices rose 7.1% year over year, which was below estimates, but before the retail sales decline posted on Thursday. "But dry groceries, consumables is where we're seeing the most stubborn and persistent inflation, mid double-digit inflation. McMillon said Walmart is continuing to look for new technology to maintain inventory and increase the speed of its e-commerce business.
☆ Astronauts explain why nobody has visited the moon in 50 years — and the reasons are depressing

The last time a person visited the moon was in December 1972, during NASA's Apollo 17 mission. But those stays during the Apollo program didn't establish a lasting human presence on the moon. Researchers and entrepreneurs have long pushed for the creation of a crewed base on the moon — a lunar space station. But many astronauts and other experts suggest the biggest impediments to making new crewed moon missions a reality are banal and somewhat depressing. During NASA's Apollo program, 12 people landed on the moon.

The 50th anniversary of the last Apollo astronaut moonwalk is Wednesday. NASA astronauts say it's taking so long to return to the moon because of politics and money. But NASA built Orion to send astronauts back into lunar orbit and, as early as 2025, link up with SpaceX's Starship to land astronauts on the moon.

☆ Blackstone CEO says financially distressed investors driving REIT redemptions
  + stars: | 2022-12-07 | by ( Chibuike Oguh | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Blackstone relies on the REIT for about 17% of its earnings. Large redemptions have been seen at other such funds, with investment firm Starwood Capital informing investors last week that its $14.6 billion non-traded REIT also had raised the gates. There has also been a wave of redemptions at other non-traded Blackstone funds marketed to high net-worth investors. He added the redemptions did not mean the investors were not happy with the REIT and its profits. Blackstone has reported a 9.3% year-to-date return for its REIT, net of fees, a contrast to the publicly traded Dow Jones U.S.

  + stars: | 2022-12-06 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
Dec 6 (Reuters) - X-energy has agreed to merge with blank-check firm Ares Acquisition Corporation (AAC.N) in a deal valued at around $2 billion, the companies said on Tuesday.

A SPAC is a listed shell company that merges with a private company, taking it public in the process. After the deal closes, which is expected in the second quarter of 2023, the combined entity will be named X-Energy Inc.
☆ Inside the private-debt boom: Wall Street's hottest asset faces a tremendous test in a dimming economy
  + stars: | 2022-12-05 | by ( Rebecca Ungarino | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +10 min
Defaults on private loans, which have fallen steadily since the pandemic's height in 2020, are ticking up. Private credit, or private debt, are catch-all terms to describe privately negotiated loans outside the public debt markets. Private credit firms engage in what's known as direct lending, making these private loans to companies who turn to them instead of a traditional bank. Analysts and asset management executives say private debt has held up well in 2022 in the face of brutal stock and bond market volatility. 'Fighting for allocation'A challenge for private debt funds in the past decade has been a dearth of companies they can lend to.
☆ Revlon creditors challenge 2020 loan transactions

If successful, their challenge could eliminate the Brandco lenders' right to claim Revlon's brands as their exclusive collateral, reducing the Brandco lenders' leverage in the bankruptcy. Both lender groups participated in a $2 billion loan that Revlon used to purchase Elizabeth Arden in 2016. Revlon and an attorney for the Brandco lenders did not immediately respond to a request for comment. When Revlon filed for bankruptcy in June, the Brandco lenders held about $1.88 billion of Revlon's $3.5 billion debt. Those transactions allowed Revlon to borrow an additional $880 million in 2020 from the Brandco lenders, according to the complaint.
☆ Private credit is king, for now: How Blackstone is seizing on making loans while banks pull back in a dismal market

Blackstone is doubling down on private credit investments in a volatile market. While its corporate private equity investment performance fell in the quarter, private credit rose. As stock markets plunge, private equity investments' values sour, and central banks hike interest rates, the growing private credit market is heating up — and benefitting private investors stepping in to make loans as banks pull back. Take Blackstone, the world's largest alternative asset manager known for its powerful private equity and real estate businesses.

☆ A view from Greenwich: Big investors from Bridgewater, Apollo, and Ares are preparing for when, not if, a recession hits
  + stars: | 2022-10-13 | by ( Rebecca Ungarino | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
At the Greenwich Economic Forum on Tuesday, big investors said they expected a downturn. Many big investors anticipate a lighter recession than in the past as the Fed hikes interest rates. And while it's held in the hedge fund capital of the world, private credit dominated discussions. Some investors, like Lawrence Golub, chief executive of $55 billion credit asset manager Golub Capital, expect a period of low growth but no severe recession. It's going to be one where there's some economic growth in various parts of high-end consumer, or other areas," he said.
☆ Blackstone, Apollo brace for deteriorating commercial real estate market that one analyst says could lose 30% of its value

Year-over-year price growth has already slowed for commercial properties, signaling souring outlooks that could reduce values by 20 to 30%, the strategists wrote in a report. Executives at the Bisnow event pointed to high rents on multifamily properties, though growth is softening. Yardi"If this doesn't clear the market, then I don't know what does," Marcus said of her multifamily properties, which she described as large and relatively new. Andrew Holm, a cohead of US investments at Ares, the owner of more than $50 billion in commercial real estate, is hunkered down for the long haul, however. At the Bisnow event, he was so bearish on commercial real estate that he struggled to name a single sector that might be attractive over the next six months.
☆ BlackRock bought a money manager to expand in private credit. Insiders say the deal has now led to an exodus of frustrated employees.

After BlackRock acquired private credit firm Tennenbaum Capital Partners, more than a dozen employees left the small investment team. Former BlackRock employees say underwhelming pay and unfulfilled promises that the team could raise its own special situations fund led to widespread frustration and departures. The departures come as BlackRock aims to compete more aggressively in private credit, a key part of its high-priority alternatives push. Still, in recent years management has made it clear that its private investment capabilities need to be an important engine of growth. "It's not to say that the private credit market is easy to manage talent.

They are facing off against a group of large fund managers such as Apollo Global Management and Ares Management that could benefit if the company seeks bankruptcy-court protection.

NASA is about to launch its new Space Launch System toward the moon for the first time. The rocket is designed to return astronauts to the lunar surface for the first time in more than 50 years.

☆ Cu cât un ceas este mai exact, cu atât creşte nivelul dezordinii în Univers, susţin oamenii de ştiinţă
  + stars: | 2021-05-21 | by ( ) www.jurnal.md   time to read: +5 min
Conform celei de-a doua legi a termodinamicii, pe măsură ce înaintăm pe axa timpului spre viitor, nivelul entropiei dintr-un sistem creşte. Pe aşa-numita "săgeată a timpului", entropia este mereu mai mică în trecut şi întotdeauna mai mare în viitor. Maşinăriile, aşa cum sunt şi ceasurile, produc entropie sub formă de căldură pe care o disipează în mediul înconjurător. Acest lucru înseamnă să trebuie să investeşti în producţia de entropie", a adăugat ea. Cert este că, susţin oamenii de ştiinţă, ceasurile cu cât produc mai multă entropie, cu atât funcţionează cu mai multă precizie.
