For CIO I looked at how investors are thinking about unprecedented levels of market concentration in US equities & the short answer is they aren't looking at it because FOMO is a bigger career risk for institutional CIOs than looking at cheaper opportunities -

Institutions might be willing to maintain their bet on concentrated markets, if top-performing equities grind higher.

Today the news will be about the government's proposals for juries.

Please read this thread so as to be informed about the actual practical problems in the criminal justice system - problems which will not be solved by this misconceived and illiberal tinkering.
Here is a list of reasons why some of my hearings and trials this year have been delayed and kicked off into the long grass, stuck in our record court backlog. Serious allegations which will now be tried *years* after the event. 🧵👇

Omportant to watch this because the backlog exists for reasons that are very serviceable by actually staffing the courts and fixing the buildings - its not a set of problems that emerged out of the cabbage patch no one can fix - if the pretext stands they’ll use it again to roll back other rights
Listening to David Lammy on @BBCr4today attempting to justify abolishing trial by jury, it is increasingly and terrifyingly clear that he simply does not understand the issues.

Bowling Green has STUNNED the Kansas State Wildcats on the road 82-66!

Sam Towns was on fire with 27 points on 8-14 shooting with 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals to lead the team.

The Falcons shot 46% from three-point to pull of the upset and move to 6-2 on the year!

Something I think that is under discussed is that even if Ds pick up a trifecta w/in the party you couldn’t get agreement on blanket restoration of budget items to say 2023 levels apart from the real likelihood of lack of prosecutions there is a high chance we don’t see meaningful restoration
