For Carter Worth, there's one that stands out above all others: volume. They say it's all in the price action. … but volume is the essential criteria," Worth, the founder of Worth Charting with more than three decades on the Street, told CNBC's Dominic Chu in this special Pro Talks discussion available to all readers. "The study of volume and price volume correlation is the single most important thing one can do if one wants to engage in pattern recognition and studying price action trying to profit in the market." "[Philosophers] Camus and Sartre would argue that existence precedes essence, and in markets, volume precedes price," he added.

☆ Opinion | Israel Is Silencing Internal Critics

Freedom of political expression in Israel with regard to the Israeli-Arab conflict, especially with regard to Israeli policy toward Palestinians, has always been precarious, especially for the Palestinian citizens of Israel. It shouldn’t be surprising: In societies that contain widespread nationalistic tendencies, as is sadly the case in Israel, war and national tragedies create the perfect environment for witch hunts and the accelerated branding of critics and minorities as enemies from within. The suppression of speech and targeting of critics of Israel’s policy toward the conflict has always had a strategic goal. Crushing dissent and eliminating the political force of Palestinian citizens of Israel are crucial conditions that must be met to achieve that goal. Michael Sfard is an Israeli human rights lawyer and the author of “The Wall and the Gate: Israel, Palestine and the Legal Battle for Human Rights.”

He is the author of many books, including “American Islamophobia: Understanding the Roots and Rise of Fear.” You can follow him at his socials at @khaledbeydoun. Like him, I’m an Arab, Muslim and American — an amalgam of identities that conjures up “pariah” in the world we live in. What does it mean for a mother who escaped war for the safety of an American suburb? This existential ballad of being Arab or Muslim in America is far more onerous, far more absurd. Wadea’s death foreshadows that these figures may spike again, and descend on the heads of Arab and Muslim Americans shadowed by suspicion.

STOCKHOLM (AP) — The Nobel Prize in literature will be announced Thursday, with the new laureate, or laureates, joining an illustrious list of past winners that ranges from Toni Morrison to Ernest Hemingway and Jean-Paul Sartre — who turned down the prize in 1964. Ernaux was just the 17th woman among the 119 Nobel literature laureates. The literature prize has long faced criticism that it is too focused on European and North American writers, as well as too male-dominated. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded Friday and the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences ends the awards season on Monday. The Nobel Prizes carry a cash award of 11 million Swedish kronor ($1 million) from a bequest left by the prize’s creator, Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel.

Persons: —, Toni Morrison, Ernest Hemingway, Jean, Paul Sartre —, Annie Ernaux, Ernaux, Moungi, Louis Brus, Alexei Ekimov, Karikó, Drew Weissman, Anne L’Huillier, Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz, Alfred Nobel, ___ Corder Organizations: STOCKHOLM, Swedish Academy, North, MIT, Louis Brus of Columbia University, Nanocrystals Technology Inc, COVID, Economic Sciences Locations: Normandy, France, Hungarian, French, Swedish, The Hague, Netherlands

Here are some things to know about the Nobel Prizes:AN IDEA MORE POWERFUL THAN DYNAMITEPolitical Cartoons View All 1190 ImagesThe Nobel Prizes were created by Alfred Nobel, a 19th-century businessman and chemist from Sweden. Though Nobel purists stress that the economics prize is technically not a Nobel Prize, it’s always presented together with the others. The Nobel Prizes project an aura of being above the political fray, focused solely on the benefit of humanity. The Norwegian Nobel Committee is an independent body that insists its only mission is to carry out the will of Alfred Nobel. To date, 60 women have won Nobel Prizes, including 25 in the scientific categories.

☆ What College Students Need Is a Taste of the Monk’s Life - The New York Times

“On college campuses, these students think they’re all being individuals, going out and being wild,” he said. Undergraduates at Belmont Abbey College outside Charlotte, N.C., share their quadrangles, sidewalks and even their chess clubs with Benedictine monks who live in an abbey in the middle of campus. Their presence compels even non-Christians on campus to think seriously about vocation and the meaning of life. “Either what the monks are doing is valuable and based on something true, or it’s completely ridiculous,” Mr. Lutz said. The point is not to take away the phone for its own sake but to take away our primary sources of distraction.

They stroll in the Luxembourg Gardens, they go to a party, they gossip, and we overhear their private reflections. Like writers, ideas have their eras, as undeniable at showing their vintage as gray hair and wrinkles. D’Ardelo, who has just heard from his doctor that his medical tests are negative, nevertheless tells the others that he has cancer. Elsewhere, “On woman’s erotic body there are certain golden sites: I always thought there were three such: the thighs, the buttocks, the breasts. golden sites represents an erotic message.” But these are messages a novelist would not put in the mouth of a modern male character unless he was trying to characterize him as an irredeemable sexist.
