Not the OP, but I can say in Japan the spot electric market price is set by the marginal generator: LNG peaker plants. Thus if renewables were selling into the open market the price for their electricity would indeed be determined by the fo

Yes, you are confusing the federal debt with the federal reserve. These are two wholy seperate things. The US Federal debt has been continuous since soon after the revolutionary war with only brief periods of net savings.

Never. Derivation is not a property which can be "lost". Deriving more things through the process of derivation at not point stops the derivation connection. You should not include code at any point if you do not have the proper l

Brent would not be impacted by storage in America, since Brent is a product of the oilfields near the old Brent oilfield in north Europe. Which brings up the topic of oil prices: there are many. Every blend, every location, has its own pric

Japan is building new plants. You'll see that news a bunch. What you do not see is the why. Japan has companies which are building new coal plants in order to replace existing plants. Old coal plants have lower efficiency. Old coal pla

Those phones all had Google Maps app open. That Google is harvesting device locations while you have a Google app open showing your GPS location should not be a surprise. What would be a surprise is if Google forced on your GPS to gather yo

Wow, incredible to see this again. Way long time ago I wrote a wikipedia page for this software. The page was soon deleted and I learned my lesson about trying to contribute to things which do not value your work.

Reading this article has a flow. It feels easier to read than what I expect a modern article of equivalent content would be like. Am I crazy, or is there a technique to the ease of reading we've forgotten?

Covenants are the smallest part of this. Without the flow of money the funds/banks/institutions which own those bonds are in-turn going to default to their creditors. Hence the internet analogy: you cannot just hack in a pause on

No banks need a bailout. In fact that banks are now required to act so super safe is part of what is driving the rapid decline. As corporate bonds get more risky banks are not allowed to hold as much of them. Triggering sales, which increas

Trying to "pause" commitments would take years to implement. It would be like trying to go through the world's internet and "suspending" all user requests and server processing. Instead the Fed and US government hav

Lots of voices missing the mark: the fed is acting to keep the corporate bond market from seizing up. Corporations finance part of their borrowings through bonds. These bonds need to be paid in full + the interest when the bond matures. Cor

Indeed, deaths get reported that's why the death count is the most reliable. Deaths are a lagging indicator of total infection cases because it takes time for an infection to cause death. Thus if you want to derive infections from deat

From Japan with Love: it is irresponsible to go to a restaurant at this time. A population's safety is worth more than a couple small businesses going into mothball mode. If you want to support said small business your task is clear: e

Bonds are a commited fixed return, which means the value of bond goes up if the going rate for new bonds goes down. Thus bonds can be much more profitable than stocks when the marketing is going down. The central bank will drop rates, and t

Sounds interesting, anyone investing using IP blocks? Seems like it would be an weird non-correlated asset with maybe some tax advantages? How would depreciation work for IP blocks?

Several years ago the Abe government "suggested" corporations issue dividends at about 30% of their profits. Now: nearly all corporations pay dividends at about 30% of profits as policy. Japan may not be reactive or proactive, but

Banks are a means to bridge safe-money to risk-having investments. People with money in the bank do not want to open up their phone to see their bank balance has gone down by X%. People are okay with balances going up, but never going down.
