  • The Big China Short: How an army of investigators and short-sellers got the world to wake up and smell the fraud.
  • David Webb: COVID-19 – where do we go from here? He was also interviewed on Backchat.
  • Greg Miller: Tanker stocks could emerge as COVID-19 relapse hedge. Also see this recent conversation with Frontline CEO Robert Hvide Macleod.
  • Adam Grant: Rekindling dormant ties can bring unexpected benefits to our lives.

On a slightly different note, it was recently Kevin Kelly’s 68th birthday and, to mark the occasion, he shared 68 pithy bits of unsolicited advice. It’s a really great read. Have a good long weekend ahead!
