My research with B. Hearn & I. Filatotchev uncovers a key factor in stock returns: free float. Analyzing S&P 1500 stocks, we find that free float differences create a hedging factor that enhances CAPM alongside size. Read in Journal of Corporate Finance: bit.ly/4kp26qq.

Que no hay banderas palestinas, si las hubiera ya verías como el carapoller habría enviado ya no brigadas sino divisiones enteras de limpieza... a quitar la pintada, tampoco nos flipemos.

¿Qué está pasando en el centro? Hay basura en todas las partes

Not sure what's happening, but Madrid is sinking into rubbish. @idiazaquso.bsky.social
British media pumps out daily propaganda pieces for Farage, fails to offer *any scrutiny* and basically legitimises rampant racism, then puts on its ‘innocent face’ and clutches its pearls at the rise of the far right…
What a grim betrayal of our democracy.

Do you have a source for this?

Kristallnacht was in 1938. The Reichtag was apparently (this is disputed) set alight in 1933 by a Dutch communist, hence the parallel with Donald's Trump radical keft killing Kirk.

So, Charlie Kirk was killed by a gun-obsessed guy raised by Republican parents? How does that fit the narrative?

Definitely radical left.

And, this NYT article dates back to 2019! There is no radical left in the USA, but definitely a radical right.

We can have a long debate about whether the Democratic Party is centre left or centre right. However, look how much farther to the right the Republican Party is compared to right-wing European parties. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Is there a left in the United States?

We know that he is not part of the "radical left', as there is no left (radical or not) in the USA.

Not just that, but there is supposed to be a radical left in the USA.
The idea that there is a "Left" in American politics is an absurd right wing fantasy, which of course is politically useful to them, but unfortunately it's also useful to centrist media figures who need it to be true for their somber above-it-all commentary to make sense
