re: CFA vs CFP

You think BlackRock is going to keep CFA’s around when Alladin & Gemini can do all of that work at a cheaper rate?

If they’re employed by a wirehouse then yes ultimately it is true. The CFA will earn a salary and bonuses based on their “picks” but the main revenue source of the firm is a CFP. So the CFP keeps the back office employed.

CFA is harder to obtain but ultimately CFA’s end up working for CFP’s.. and an analyst position is much more vulnerable to AI

re: Trump orders agencies to stop using Anthropic AI tech
Posted by Shepherd88 on 2/27/26 at 4:51 pm to GumboPot
This is a bad look for Trump. Anthropic admitted that AI was not ready to be pushed further in warfare and the government is trying to force that. In over 95% of war game simulations AI chose a tactical nuke option.
re: An economic collapse scenario by Citrini Research:
Posted by Shepherd88 on 2/25/26 at 9:46 am to Bard
I uploaded the file to chat gpt and had it bring up some points that contradicted it.
Mainly this “scenario” assumes
1. labor income is static and not adaptive
2.productivity rises while income falls
3. Underestimates capital market adaptation
4. Overestimates demand collapse (if corporations grabbed all the money then the government would like raise taxes to redistribute wealth)
It agrees that there likely could be a painful labor market transition but that demand would shift to newly created jobs due to AI infrastructure created.

Simon’s was a mathematician and a Cold War code breaker. He made Stony Brook what it was today. He took massive amounts of information and fed it into a computer and created what we know today as algorithms. His story is pretty incredible about creating Ren Tech.

This headline is really misleading. It’s an opinion by a former bank chair who retired 14 years ago. And she made the “opinion” that the bank simply have a contingency plan.. not that the markets would crash.
re: Anyone treating the flu with Oscillococcinum?
Posted by Shepherd88 on 12/26/25 at 10:12 am to Sheepdog1833
All that stuff is, is a derivative from duck liver and heart. If you take enough of it, it’ll keep you up all night but other than that it’s a placebo.
The original theory (early 1900s) was that a supposed oscillating microorganism (“oscillococcus”) seen in flu patients was also found in duck organs. That microorganism was later shown not to exist, but the product stuck around.
