Why there’s a shortage of gelatin? Because not as many cattle are being slaughtered… because not as many cars are being made following a chip shortage. The demand for cow’s hides to make automotive leather has gone down. OMG! #podcastnotes podcasts.google.com?feed=aHR…
Our exclusive Bloomberg News analysis offers clues on the value of startups backed by hedge funds' billions. The findings aren't reassuring.
A months-long collaboration effort with @parmarhema & @NBuhayar

I remember myself gasping when I was peeling off the US overdose death data layer by layer -- "Gosh! It's all fentanyl."
Our months-long effort resulted in this in-depth story explaining the status quo of the latest wave in the US opioid crisis. bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-…
Earlier this year, a couple of us @Business sat down to try and make sense of what's been going on with the US opioid crisis over the last few years.

Just how bad 2022 has been for the markets and tech firms? A look into the status quo of US IPOs, based on my data crunching: California has been generating the most IPOs of any US state every year since 2003. That streak could end this year. bloomberg.com/news/articles/… via @markets

One hundred years ago, the Osage Nation had tremendous land and wealth. “In Trust” is the story of the tribal nation’s efforts to recover what was lost, sold and stolen.
