During times of crisis when the stock market sells off (like the current fear of Chinese real estate company Evergrande potentially defaulting) is when you look around and scoop up what could be described as… Continue reading 22Sept21: Distressed Assets

The growing wave of programmatic advertising and machine learning continues to rise and, strangely, many Wall Street folks either don’t fully get the implications or are deliberately keeping share prices down.
