  1. Recession boosting profile of earned media (PR) over paid media (advertising & marketing) http://tinyurl.com/ydmg2br
  2. John Mack has joined the super-regulator chorus and goes one better by saying "We cannot control ourselves." http://tinyurl.com/yazwrc8
  3. Mike @rortybomb http://tinyurl.com/yzcwnxe makes an interesting point about fixed vs discretionary costs. So smaller house, but more shoes.
  4. First Weill on WSJ and now Dimon support the idea of a super regulator http://tinyurl.com/yjg3pnd Maybe there is hope for the public option.
  5. Thinking about life settlements... The next securitization frontier?
  6. @sohonews10012 Now that store is Meg Cohen Design. Meg has the loveliest cashmere scarves and vintage cufflinks. AND she's there on Sundays!
  7. The 2000s, Bush's economic debacle where Americans got poorer for the first time since 41. http://tinyurl.com/rcjopc
  8. Health care is on the minds of fbers today. One look at my news feed and every one had the same update!
  9. JP Morgan had less than 100 employees. Currently finance accounts for, wait for it, 40% of all corporate profits. http://tinyurl.com/lmzkjn
  10. @nichcarlson Couldn't agree more. Didn't know that Pete Campbell had that in him.
  11. Maybe NBC's ratings are higher because evening news viewers are older and skew conservative/traditional.
  12. Alternate thought, it didn't work when CBS put Katie Couric in the Evening News, so why does ABC think it will work this time?
  13. Diane Sawyer to take over ABC's "World News" from Charlie Gibson. More feminization of the media? http://tinyurl.com/mrn9aw
  14. Vacancies don't necessarily mean defaults, but maybe a dip in the standard of living and uptick in crime? http://tinyurl.com/l2kq5h
  15. Unemployment numbers are still high. Mortgage delinquencies continues to rise. Is the stock market rally reality based?
  16. Interesting that press releases are scrutinized more and more as legal documents for regulatory purposes.
  17. Two cents: Economic recovery will depend on people getting jobs.
  18. Who will turn out to be prescient on unemployment? The New Normal theory or the JPM economists? http://tinyurl.com/psalxf
  19. Permabear economists now buying homes. http://tinyurl.com/lm57fn But foreclosure rates still rising http://tinyurl.com/mn5m8d
  20. No water for green shoots. Corporations are still hoarding cash and not deploying capital in the economy. http://tinyurl.com/maaz4t
