Excited to see my JMP at the JM in print! Super grateful to @ShrihariSridha1 & the fantastic review team—the paper is better because of their feedback. Thank you so much to my advisors @Guenter_Hitsch, Pradeep Chintagunta, Sarah Moshary, & Sanjog Misra, & my friends & mentors.

🧠💥 When you slip, your arms whip out like a tail to save you — but older adults react 36% slower, causing nearly twice the sideways shift, making balance recovery harder. New study suggests faster arm reactions may be key to better fall prevention. #Aging #balance #exercise…

Wait, retail shopping isn't dead? 🤯 1. Offline spending on consumer packaged goods (CPG) was flat from 2006-2016 2. Yes, online is growing. To a whole 3%! It's just not that big to matter for aggregate trends. Super interesting paper from Uyen Tran. dropbox.com/scl/fi/73pozfv…

Guess I'm just keeping up with the economy as my body weight inflates 5% every year. At this rate, I'll outpace the dollar and be a millionaire... in snacks.

Physical games are freedom. The freedom to play, freedom to trade, and freedom to sell true ownership whenever you want, without any corporation telling you otherwise. Power to the players.

A "floor trade" refers to a large trade executed directly on the trading floor of a stock exchange. These trades often involve significant volumes and are usually carried out by institutional investors or large traders. 👀@TheRoaringKitty

We learn about science, history, languages, and extracurriculars like photography in elementary to high schools years. Why is there no emphasis on learning the fundamentals of personal finances and the markets? #money #investing #Finance
