You can get a list of these on the SEC website. Another recent one was in amount 27 million. Some pay a fraction of the fines awarded. Big numbers here particularly if the whistle-blower approaches it in the right way. I have a few ideas on

Could you please expand on what you mean? From the context I think you're saying it's a type of guerrilla marketing but the link doesn't seem to align with that. Nor does the article because the academics really do seem to ha

Cost of borrow for hertz shares reached over 140 percent last week. Some of the purchasing could well have been driven by hedge funds which were short but had to buy stock to exit their positions after available shares to borrow dried up an

Anyone remember the v2 rashdown map that someone made which became popular online? Bottleneck at either side, tanks through the middle, Tesla towers and v2 rockets to shoot over the rocks.

Am I correct in thinking that interactive brokers won't send from your brokerage account to someone else? If so I guess the process would be to send back to a Revolut account of yours in the target currency after conversion at IB and t

This is cool but your hospital beds figure needs to be reduced dramatically because I believe you have taken the number of total hospital beds, not intensive care beds for the critically ill. In my country, the number of total beds is about

Capex as a percent of sales for the dominant cable companies is generally 15 to 20 percent. Why do you think there was no investment?

Indeed, especially at a small company where it makes a big difference to have a capable person in charge. Even if it's not as fun as being on the front lines, it can be the responsible/right thing to do if you're the most qua

If I remember correctly Kahneman said not to do this though and to just go by the quantitative evaluation you mentioned in the previous point. 'Final decision will be a collective decision of the hiring team'

Ruling out teacher impact on height without testing is perhaps not strictly scientific? We really don't know what is true unless we test it. I know it sounds ridiculous but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that teacher op

I see, I was going by the note under table 2 that said 'annual global returns in 16 countries, equal weighted'. I did find another reason that reported housing returns are too high though. This is their key input 'net rental

An electrical engineering friend who did some hardware development work on these a few years back suggested that noise in the observations was a fairly significant challenge. Seems the devices use a lot of data smoothing to counteract this.
