- tanderson92 10y agoThe WSJ is not currently in the business of clickbait. This is a substantive article related to the superior passive investment strategy of a state's pension manager.
- gnarbarian 10y agoI consider it shite because I clicked the link and was met with a paywall.
- tanderson92 10y agoThat is...not what clickbait is at all.
- joshmn 10y agoYou'll never guess what HackerNews thinks clickbait is!
- bbcbasic 10y agoHe said shite not clickbait
- tanderson92 10y agoHe edited after I commented.
- user5994461 10y agoThat is a recurrent issue with wsj articles...
- ensiferum 10y ago"What Does Nevada’s $35B Fund Manager Do All Day? Nothing" This title implies that he manager does nothing all day long. But when you read the article it comes clear that doing "nothing" is his trading policy. "His daily trading strategy: Do as little as possible, usually nothing." I consider this a click-bait.
- cheriot 10y agoHe does nothing like programmers value laziness. It's harder than it sounds.
- ptaipale 10y agoDefinitely. That's why saying "he does nothing" is a bit clickbaity.
- cryptozeus 10y agoThats impplied that doing nothing is realted to trading imo
- rlayton2 10y agoYeah. I read the title and thought "isn't that what everyone says -- just go with the market?"
- tedunangst 10y agoIt's not anywhere close to what most pension funds actually do.
- Ensorceled 10y agoThis isn't click bait, it's a headline "joke" which is pretty common even in substantive newspapers and has been for a long time.
