– And Lawfare blog with some initial, balanced, thoughts on the WashPo’s classified info Trump story.

Ray Dalio on ‘the big picture’.

Andy Mukherjee on the divergence between what India’s central bank says some banks’ NPAs are and what those (in this case private) banks say they are. Separately, a good Credit Suisse report laid out the numbers:

Why wouldn’t I?”

– In cashless Sweden, even God now takes payment via an app.

One question to ask might be, “Why should Walmart be allowed to enter banking?” But a more relevant question would be, “Why shouldn’t Walmart be allowed to enter banking?

Setser: China still wants to import commodities, not manufactures.

News you probably shouldn’t use from 538: How to trade $100 for $8.20 in 34 complicated steps.
