This is so absurd. I don't get a report I like so I fire the dept head.

So every time one of your reporters files a story that the boss or someone doesn't like, do they fire you?

Well I guess that is what's called "firing the messenger."

What makes up the US trade deficit in goods? A lot of things that American consumers like!

Great run through the data from our @bloomberg.com data viz team:

Trump’s Tariffs Are Aimed at a Trade Deficit Driven by Popular Goods
Trump wants to reduce the $1.2 trillion trade deficit, so he’s putting tariffs on popular imported goods from smartphones to household appliances.

Wow that was quiet. I didn’t know he passed either. Nice article and a super important guy in terms of quant investing.
He may not be as famous as Bill Sharpe, Ed Thorpe or Jim Simons, but Barr Rosenberg is one of the OGs of quantitative finance. Alphaville was sad to learn he passed away last month, so we wrote this tribute to “the accountant of risk”. on.ft.com/4bumJxE

Good piece on banking infrastructure and the challenges between old tech, insourcing, outsourcing and I guess cost which is at the heart of all of this
There are some things in finance which you really shouldn’t look at too closely if you value your sanity – like repo and money markets. But even the banking system’s funding arrangements are benign compared to the Lovecraftian horror of their IT outsourcing. www.ft.com/content/7de5...

This is crazy -A ‘Teleportation’ Breakthrough for Quantum Computing Is Here

Now this isn't really about teleportation - its about quantum entanglement. This, if true, will shake up trading.
