☆ Paul Singer, the Man Who Saw the Economic Crises Coming

New York“Men and nations behave wisely,” the Israeli statesman Abba Eban observed, “when they have exhausted all other resources.” Imagine if our economic policy makers listened to Paul Singer instead. Mr. Singer, 78, is founder of Elliott Management and one of the world’s most successful hedge-fund proprietors. Before the financial crisis of 2008, he tried to alert investors and public officials about the dangers of subprime mortgages. In the 15 years since, he’s repeatedly warned that the landmark Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, and the expansive monetary policies along the way, were inviting disaster.

☆ ‘I will veto everything they send me.’

At first blush the idea may sound intriguing to those who favor small government. But this Biden promise is sure to be broken once someone explains to the President that his beloved spending bills—and all other kinds of bills—have to pass both houses of Congress before becoming law. Perhaps the White House will be issuing a correction, as it did for another part of the Thursday speech. Foolish and false presidential comments are not exactly news, but Mr. Biden’s Thursday remarks were striking. Just warming up with his standard distortions early in the address, here’s how the President reacted to the news of slowing GDP growth in the fourth quarter of 2022:
☆ Vice President Biden’s Greatest Blunder
  + stars: | 2022-10-25 | by ( James Freeman | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Americans hoping that President Joe Biden won’t blunder his way into war with Russia can hardly take comfort from his history of poor judgment in matters of foreign policy. The latest news from China underscores how badly Mr. Biden misjudged the tyrant who has now consolidated power in Beijing. The Journal’s Rebecca Feng reports that on Monday foreign investors were fleeing Chinese stocks and it’s easy to see why. The Journal’s Chun Han Wong and Keith Zhai report:The old-fashioned communist thug’s determination to reassert state control of the economy threatens all of the progress the Chinese people have enjoyed since the late 1970s.
☆ The One Little Problem With a Washington Post Story
  + stars: | 2022-10-22 | by ( James Freeman | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Regular news consumers are familiar with the endless media effort to tie adverse events to businesspeople and right-of-center politicians. This column’s most celebrated alumnus entertained readers by satirically blaming all manner of random misfortunes on either climate change or George W. Bush. More recently this column noted how various outlets got carried away last month trying to claim that the intensity of Florida hurricane activity is man-made. One outlet in particular, the Washington Post, doesn’t seem especially eager to learn from its mistakes.

☆ The sales pitch a high-tech coffee startup used to raise $1.6 million and increase sales
  + stars: | 2021-02-08 | by ( Larissa Zimberoff | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +10 min
Voga Coffee has raised $1.6 million to fund its mission to get into coffee shops around the world. Unfortunately, the industry has taken quite a hit, with one research firm reporting the pandemic wiped out a quarter of coffee shop's sales in 2020. For the first time in nine years, the total number of coffee shops in the US is on the decline, according to Bloomberg. Its invention, called Ground Control, is a high-tech batch brewer that aims to produce a more consistently delicious cup of coffee. Adopting the technology, the company argues, would allow cafés to brew coffee at a faster clip and charge a higher price for a top-notch brew.
