Goldman Sachs is gearing up to name a new class of partners.

"Making partner at Goldman Sachs is a rigorous and competitive process," Tony Fratto, Goldman's head of communications, said in a statement. They can also help direct the bank's philanthropic spending through Goldman Sachs Gives, which the company says has granted $2.5 billion to more than 10,000 nonprofits.

Shared Access worked with a football club to power headsets for fans with visual impairments. It installed a private 5G network for fast connectivity and nearly instantaneous streaming. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Sam Jackman, the chief development officer of Shared Access, a European company that develops mobile-connectivity solutions. We decided to install a private 5G network with an on-site core in the stadium. Ultimately, having the foundation of this private network allows so much room for creativity in terms of what you can layer on top of it.

Among Muslims, the difference was 43% agreeing with the statement versus an estimated 66% who privately agreed. While 27% of Democratic respondents publicly agreed with the statement "I support defunding the police," just 3% privately supported the movement. While 50% of Republicans publicly said "we live in a mostly fair society," just 11% privately agreed. Similarly, 2% of Republicans were thought to privately trust the government to tell the truth, while 14% said so publicly.

While the hardware sales are certainly profitable, they pale in comparison to the profitability of Apple's Services. It's impossible to do consistently, and that's why Jim Cramer always says "own, don't trade" Apple stock. During the reported quarter, Apple returned over $29 billion to shareholders, including $3.8 billion in dividends and equivalents and another $25 billion via the repurchase of 112 million shares. Though Services sales missed the mark, gross income managed to outpace expectations thanks to significant year-over-year margin expansion. The growing installed base of active devices is of course translating into strong engagement with Apple's services.
