Sunday assorted links

1. Aesthetically unappealing markets in everything.  Repulsive to some, but even worse clicking on the link will activate a video and some noise.

2. “In short, by observing promotion and demotion decisions (which we can, using data sources such as Morningstar and CRSP), we can infer the fund family’s private information.”  Judging mutual fund managers.

3. An unusual book cover.

4. A cranky, right-wing, and indeed partisan view of what is wrong with Baltimore.  And it’s funny how stories of New Yorkers moving to LA have become newsy again.

5. Henry Farrell interviews Rachel Wellhausen on ISDS in TPP.

6. Can Bitcoin conquer Argentina?

7. Some forms of hands-free driving are coming very soon.
