Today's Breakfast with Benjamin also features notes on geopolitical unrest hitting the markets, an IPO-heavy week, and Morgan Stanley junior bankers getting a 'living wage.'
- An uber-bullish mood could mean 4% yields on the 10-year Treasury by Thanksgiving. Yikes. When the wall of worry is replaced by record bullishness
- Geopolitical turmoil is starting to spread to the financial markets. German bond yields fall, gold rallies, as Europe and U.S. add Russian sanctions. Impacting the “euro-area economy”
- A big week for IPOs says plenty about the upbeat mood of the equity markets. Or could it just be a rush to get in while the getting is still good? Busiest week for public offerings since August 2000
- Biotech stocks seeing a flood of potentially price-moving catalysts on the horizon. AMGN, ARWR, GILD, ICPT, VRTX
- The upside of being wet behind the ears at Morgan Stanley. Junior banker base pay jumps 25%. Scraping by on between $85,000 and $180,000 a year
- This has trouble written all over it. The TSA is offering $15K for the best ideas to speed up airport security screening. Stop wasting time frisking grandma
- Sex sells and sometimes it also makes a good investment. Investments lasting longer than four hours
