The Netherlands and Ecuador each won their first games of the tournament — Ecuador beat Qatar 2-0 — and tied 1-1 on Friday. They each have four points and Senegal has… Source link

The Time to Buy the Dip Is Fast Approaching — for One Country

(Bloomberg) — Investors are looking beyond a looming global recession and they see one country – and its financial markets – emerging strongest on the other side. US stocks and bonds will lead the way out of the current wave of market turmoil, according to respondents in the latest MLIV Pulse survey.

That probably beats the time at Florida State when he won the 100 and 200 meters in a morning track meet and then started as a center fielder for the Seminoles’ baseball team that… Source link
