Market Insider: Billionaire investor Ray Dalio says it’s naive to think the Fed’s rate hikes ‘will make things good again’
Ray Dalio - A + A (June 23): Billionaire investor Ray Dalio said it's naive for anyone to think the Federal Reserve's plan to raise rates quickly to quell inflation will "make things good again." It's simply not how the economic machine works, Dalio wrote on LinkedIn on Wednesday, Market Insider reported. "While tightening reduces inflation because it results in people spending less, it doesn't make things better because it takes buying power away," he wrote, Dalio, who is the founder of Bridgewater, the world's largest hedge fund with more than $150 billion assets under management, added: "It just shifts some of the squeezing of people via inflation to squeezing them via giving them less buying power," Market Insider reported.

FMCG stocks surge on easing concerns over margins
Representative image Trade Watchlist Portfolio Message Set Alert live bse live nse live Volume Todays L/H More × Shares of fast-moving consumer goods companies saw hefty buying on June 24 on the perception that ongoing decline in global commodity prices could improve profitability of these companies going ahead.

Is Every Sidewalk A Forest? A New MoMA PS1 Exhibit Reveals The Unexpected Natural Habitats Of New York
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin In the borough of Brooklyn, nestled between a Jewish day school and a kosher restaurant, is a parcel of land measuring seventy-one feet long and six inches wide. The lot was purchased in a municipal auction by a real estate developer in 1954. Not much has happened since. The only development has been the placement of a wooden plank in the ground, creating a fence that is as narrow as the property and as overweening as the reach of property rights in New York City. The fence was recently removed by the artist Niloufar Emamifar, opening the parcel to rodents and other small animals. This modest act of resistance, which is commemorated by the display of the plank at MoMA PS1, is a fitting point of entry into a stimulating new group exhibition called Life Between Buildings . Artists have recognized the vitality of interstitial spaces in New York City for at least half a century. One of the first to explore this realm in … [Read more...] about Is Every Sidewalk A Forest?
