No ‘Plan B’ In Greece Debt Talks
Greece can’t seem to see the light at the end of its financial tunnel. No matter what moves it makes, it isn’t enough to get the country out from under its pile of fiscal woes.

When Hyperinflation Hits In Japan, Robot Suits Will Help You Move Your Yen

Up Periscope: I See The Future Of Video
The fight over people using Periscope to watch Mayweather/Pacquiao was more interesting than the actual fight. Just for fun, I duked it out with Richard Quest on CNN. But this particular storyline misses the point. We’re about 10 minutes away from a paradigm shift in over-the-top (OTT) video that is so all-encompassing, it will change the way we […]
Weekly Wrap-Up + Market Forecast + Sector Watch: SPX, Nasdaq – May 11, 2015
We came into last week sitting on mostly cash, expecting a pullback. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we got that pullback.
