Excerpt from Knowledge@Wharton -- "The key here is the desirability of the location, which is true -- it's still very much alive and it creates a lot of competition amongst retailers to get to these highly desirable spots that, in turn, drive the rent high up. But the issue here is the marketing strategy that a lot of these retailers are applying... The gap is between having foot traffic and having activations that actually convert the desirability to purchases. I think this is where a lot of these retailers miss out and this is why we see such a high turnover even on Madison Avenue."

Excerpt from Kanka News -- (Translated from Chinese using Google Translate) "New York University Business School professor Alvin Lieberman said, 'Netflix relies mainly on getting quality content from others, and now we can see that Disney is expected to surpass Netflix, because Disney owns the companies that create content.'...Samuel Craig, another professor at New York University's business school, pointed out that Disney's long-term success is highly probable, but it still requires a lot of capital investment in the early stage, and it will cost a lot of time. 'This is a war of burning money, especially at the beginning. Disney will lose a lot of time at the beginning, because there will be a lot of upfront investment. The accumulation of consumers will be relatively slow, and users will not start to flock.'"

For him, investing in human capital is the way to reduce inequality."

Excerpt from Fox Business -- "'I think we've passed the tipping point of negative publicity on Facebook,' said Arun Sundararajan, a professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business.

As the antitrust cases against Facebook pick up steam, they are likely to become the primary investor focus.'"

Excerpt from Barron's -- "ESG [environmental, social, and governance factors] is becoming part of investors’ understanding of risks and opportunities for business, and the regular way in which they analyze companies. That continues regardless of what’s happening in the markets. Something like 50% of growth in the CPG [consumer packaged goods] sector comes from sustainability marketed products. This is not a short-term thing; it’s an ongoing shift in consumer behavior, business behavior, investor behavior."

Excerpt from Bloomberg -- "Locast is a wonderful solution. It works. But it is a threat... let's talk about the timing. CBS was negotiating its re-transmission fees... Guess when it was solved. The opening day of the NFL is September 5th. And if you're watching CBS and you sat down in front of your television at 1 o'clock on September 8th and you're in Baltimore and the Ravens don't come on, that's a problem."

Excerpt from CBC -- "A lot of different people have different conceptions of what this term [i.e. the sharing economy] means. I define it pretty broadly. I define it as any new way of organizing economic activity that uses a digital platform to tap into the time and assets of a distributed group of people. So Airbnb, for example, offers an alternative to traditional hotels, not by building hotels, but by connecting to millions of people who are willing to host a guest for a few days, either in a spare bedroom or by handing over their apartment to them for a few days."

Excerpt from NBC News -- "It's not everywhere. It's not a national crisis. But it is a severe problem at many of our most important schools. Students routinely say they're afraid to speak up. And if you keep your eye on the self-censorship, rather than the shout-downs, then I think it is a crisis."
