The stock market is booming, but most Americans don't benefit directly - Dec. 8, 2017 "With the great vote on Cutting Taxes, this could be a big day for the Stock Market - and YOU!" he tweeted on Monday morning. It's true -- the S&P 500 is up 17.4% since the beginning of the year and the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 22.2%, reflecting strong corporate earnings and the anticipation of a massive tax cut. But just who benefits from those skyrocketing numbers? The short answer: Wealthy people. As measured by those who declare ordinary dividend income on their tax returns, stock ownership varies dramatically by income level. On average across the United States, only 18.7% of taxpayers directly own stocks. Accordingly, the states with the wealthiest populations also tend to have higher rates of stock ownership. But there's a deeper answer, too. As highlighted recently in an analysis by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Related: 10 years after the recession, have Americans recovered? There is one state, however, that bucks most of those associations. But the most likely factor?

It Could Be a Perfect Year for the Stock Market Bouncing technology shares are putting a perfect year back within reach of the U.S. stock market. While short of a recovery, the advance in the market’s biggest industry has helped the S&P 500 Index rebound from four days of losses at the start of the month. The FANG group of Facebook Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Netflix Inc. and Google parent Alphabet Inc. gained 1.4 percent over five days, retracing two-fifths of the worst weekly loss in five months. The swift turnaround has prompted market watchers like Rich Ross at Evercore ISI to predict a revival in tech leadership that will drive the S&P 500 to a fresh record by year-end. Besides solid economic data, such as Friday’s payrolls report, equity bulls also have history on their side. Tech Comeback Computer and software companies staged a comeback as flows out of the sector eased. “If I said ouch I’d be a full body of bruises,” Spellman said.

Interview with Peter Eisenman: "I Am Not Convinced That I Have a Style" As one of the most revered and often reviled architects of the latter part of the 20th century, Peter Eisenman has courted controversy throughout his 50-year career, often attempting to distance himself from the work of his contemporaries and standing in firm opposition to popular trends. In this interview, Eisenman elaborates on his beliefs about architecture and the new direction he has taken in recent years – while simultaneously pulling no punches when discussing the work of others, including Rem Koolhaas, Richard Meier, and even his younger self. The interview is a shortened version of the latest of three interviews with Peter Eisenman (from October 2003, June 2009, and February 2016) that comprise the upcoming book by Vladimir Belogolovsky “Conversations with Peter Eisenman.” The book, published by Berlin-based DOM Publishers will be presented during the opening days at the 15th Venice Architecture Biennale in late May this year. Peter Eisenman: Yes. PE: Yes, I agreed. PE: No.
Test drive of a petrol car - Tesla Club Sweden In other languages: Swedish, Norwegian, Russian, German, Dutch, Portugese, Turkish, French, Danish, Chinese, Finnish, Latvian Having heard so much good about petrol cars, we decided to test drive one. They are said to combine cheap price with long range and fast charging. A winning formula on paper – but how are they in real life? We sat us in the loaner car at the car salesman’s office. So we sat in the car and pressed the START button. The petrol engine consists of literally hundreds of moving parts that must have tolerance of hundredths of a millimeter to function. We put in a gear and drove away with a jerk. We asked if the constant sound of the engine -that frankly disturbed us from being able to listen to the radio- could be turned off. After getting the car up to speed through intricate changing of gears we approached a traffic light. When we came to a stop the engine continued to run and the car vibrate – even though the car was standing still!
[新聞] 麥格理大預言 鴻海是未來世界整合者 - 看板 Stock 作者GoOdGaMe (GG) 看板Stock 標題[新聞] 麥格理大預言 鴻海是未來世界整合者 Last Futures Is a Crash Course in the SciFi-Tinged, Utopian Architecture of Yesterday A new book treats the architectural failures of a radical past as a learning opportunity for an apathetic present. Anna Khachiyan Buckminster Fuller’s giant dome for Expo 67 in Montreal presents a harmonious vision of high technology nestled in nature. All images courtesy Verso “Nothing dates faster than people’s fantasies about the future,” scoffed art critic Robert Hughes in 1980, referencing Oscar Niemeyer and Lúcio Costa’s pop-up capital Brasília. Murphy is no stranger to the theme of failure. Still, Murphy opens his crash course in erstwhile utopias with a caveat: “The attitude of this book...is generally anti-utopian.” NASA’s 1970’s speculative space colonies illustrate what was once thought possible, even buildable. Murphy gives us an alternate history of techno-utopia's egalitarian origins at a moment when “tech firms now run Western politics.” Douglas Murphy’s Last Futures (Verso, 2016) is a crash course in the future-oriented building culture of the 1960s and ‘70s.
Le Nouvel Economiste (LeNouvelEco) 鴻海股價黯淡 謝金河要當初喊200元的分析師踹共 | 熱門話題 | 熱點 | 經濟日報 2017-12-07 17:42經濟日報 數位部內容中心 林彥呈 用LINE傳送 鴻海（2317）股價近期欲振乏力，一舉跌破百元大關，對照外資報告今年6月高喊200元的目標價，猶若一覺黃粱夢。財信傳媒董事長謝金河對此開砲，精美的外資報告成了裹著糖衣的毒藥，更要該位分析師出面說明；但尷尬的是，這份報告剛出爐時，謝金河還稱讚是「驚天佳作」… 外資高喊目標價 謝金河批媒體幫兇 今年6月，外資麥格理證券出具一份圖文並茂、厚達226頁的重量級評估報告，預言鴻海是未來世界的整合者，並且高喊目標價上看200元，頓時買盤簇擁，鴻海股價站上120元關卡，最高曾推升至122.5元，然而後勢卻一路下探，時至今日僅剩93.6元。 「這本經典的外資報告，如今變成悲劇！」 他說，這些年來國內資本市場一直為外資開綠燈，本國券商不可喊目標價，但外資可以透過媒體幫忙喊話。 半年前稱「驚天佳作」 如今要分析師踹共 謝金河更直接點名，當時出具報告的麥格理分析師張博凱應該出面說明。 「有些外資報告我也會看，但上乘的拔尖之作不是很多，張博凱這次226頁的報告可說是驚天佳作。」 6月26日，鴻海股價在盤中漲逾7.5%，創下波段新高，終場上漲7.5元，以120元作收。 為此，謝金河回應，這篇報告是驚天佳作，以「未來世界資源整合者」形容鴻海也是創見，只是股價未盡如意。
