@lugaricano FIFA also set a precedent last year by later cutting prices for the club World Cup, which may impact consumers’ beliefs about the likelihood of price cuts this go round

@SteveThunderfan Yeah just wouldn’t agree that it was selling high or an overpay bc a lot of the draft comp was for the contract (if a back end starter has 3 more years at 4 mil a year, they’d fetch a lot more than the 25th pick and three seconds)

Overall, despite limited oversight, this market seems reasonably healthy. More details, including a discussion of institutional details, can be found in the paper at the link below

Have new research with Andriy Shkilko and Ingrid Werner on 24-hour trading

We document big growth in US equity trading between 8 PM and 4 AM (what we call nocturnal trading)

We consider the implications for prices and market quality

Short thread (link at end)

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

While effective spreads during nocturnal hours are worse compared to regular hours, realized spreads (a measure of intermediation costs) are about the same or better

We also find significant price discovery between 8 PM and 4 AM, particularly for exchange-traded products

@sammy_rosen Amex platinum is nice if you fly Delta regularly. Gets you access to centurion lounge and delta lounges. Fee is high (over $600) but you get sign up bonus points plus decent other annual benefits.

@WatsonLadd @Philipcheesy1 @prof_cookson @Key_Z_E I believe insurance plans do vary by state, presumably for regulatory reasons

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

@toniwhited Interesting. My gut reaction was I thought it was higher

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

Should be a good one

@malcolmwardlaw I grew up in that spot in Missouri that apparently has been saying soda since 1947. Guess it’s in my heritage

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

@joshua_t_white @VanderbiltOwen Looks great. Invite only or open to public? Paper submissions?

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

@SashaIndarte We don't even have office phones! Millennials showing their clout

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]

@TQnomics Yea that can be difficult! The opponent is from non-power conference, which helps some. We were able to snag a few rooms last year.

[Greg Eaton @GregWEaton]
