Huge thanks to @GNev2 @evelynpartners and those all in attendance for last night's #WomeninFootball event, where we discussed the route map towards gender equality in the football industry.

Events like this are a vital step to making positive change happen!

[Mike Bird @Birdyword]

Just a reminder to everyone that the events you think of as ten years ago are actually almost twenty years ago.

@TheSecretAcct It really doesn’t; they are mixing stock and flow - like comparing the market cap of Nvidia to the Revenue of John Deere & Co…

This is a very ordinary street of student houses in Cardiff.

Here is the story of how it became entangled in an international money-laundering network, a £50million fraud against the taxman, and a bomb plot against a group of lawyers 🧵

Why did Macron decide to dissolve the Assemblée Nationale (🇫🇷 lower house of parliament) & call early legislative elections. Only Macron's immediate entourage know but here are some personal thoughts 🧵:

Over the past four-and-a-half-years, the 14m people who voted Tory in 2019 have splintered in various directions, with just 4 in 10 now saying they'll vote for the party - less than under Truss.

Here's how they've said and currently say they'll vote, each block 100k voters.

📢We’ve made a Be the Chancellor tool
The next government will inherit spending cuts & tax increases. The tool shows some of the big choices and trade-offs

[Tracy Alloway @tracyalloway]

I am shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, to find out that the people winning the volume-based social media game might not in fact be producing the best quality of investment advice.

LGFVs are core to the story of China's economic development, and now central to many of the countries biggest challenges.

To scratch my own curiosity about them, and in hopes of adding texture to today's headlines, I explore the history of their rise and (potential) fall.

I've worked in a bank (10yrs), a hedge fund (6yrs) and in HFTs (4yrs). Two things:

1. Yes, I'm old

2. You be amazed - stunned - by the number of premium name counterparties whose polished branding and external image belies a myriad of internal 'systems' that are held together by excel + a bunch of batch processes written in a language that only a single contractor knows how to maintain

[Samuel Tombs @samueltombs]

I doubt the MPC will place much weight on the 0.1pp rise in the headline rate of CPI inflation to 4.0% in December, which still undershot its 4.6% forecast in Nov's MPR. Note too that its new measure of underlying services CPI inflation fell to 6.4% in Dec, from 6.5% in Nov:

[Chris Giles @ChrisGiles_]

I know the data isn't seasonally adjusted

Serious people therefore look away now

Here is UK annualised CPI inflation over different periods of comparison over the past year

shush (there hasn't been any for 6 months)
