Analytics expert says portal hurting some major programs
A University of Illinois professor who runs an analytics website thinks the transfer portal has hurt some power conference schools in the NCAA Tournament.
BALTIMORE, MD, November 12, 2024 – New research in the INFORMS journal Manufacturing & Service Operations Management is guiding the development of more inclusive and efficient electricity markets. The work demonstrates how aggregating small-scale, distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar panels can effectively balance the power of large utility companies.
In December, the US Congressional-Executive Commission on China issued its annual report, accusing Hong Kong of eroding freedoms and aiding Russia in its war against Ukraine. These allegations sparked speculation about potential United States sanctions, including disconnecting Hong Kong from the SWIFT worldwide banking system, which could trigger a depegging of the Hong Kong dollar (HKD) from the US dollar (USD). However, such extreme measures are unlikely, as they would require support from the European Union and other allies and could destabilize the global financial system. In fact, depegging the HKD from the USD would more likely be triggered by a significant dwindling of reserves in Hong Kong rather than a drastic US policy shift.

An astonishing 1,768 men’s college basketball players entered the transfer portal in November, the majority of whom were on Division I teams. With such a turnover of players, coaches are forced to revamp their rosters annually, integrating existing players, incoming transfers and freshmen into their system. The idea of four-year players has been turned on its head.
The commercial relationships between retailers and their suppliers that shifted under the strains of the Covid-19 pandemic are transforming again as companies cope with continuing changes in consumer spending and high costs across their supply chains.
When Rihanna paused midway through her Super Bowl halftime performance to wipe the shine from her face with Fenty Beauty blotting powder, it was her flair for business, not her voice, that was momentarily on bold display. That three-second touch up, coupled with the bright lip she sported (Fenty's new Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick in "MVP" red) and the outfits worn by her backup dancers (from her Savage X Fenty lingerie line, of course), garnered the Fenty brand a cool $7.8 million in the first 12 hours after the game, according to Launchmetrics, which measures the monetary value of media marketing strategies.
