- Do businesses benefit from government stasis? The Times had one guy do a bank of the evenlope calculation; he "defined 'governmental gridlock' as a period when no single party controlled the White House and both chambers in Congress. From 1926 through last year, an index of large-capitalization stocks returned about 7 percent, annualized, when there was gridlock, compared with about 12 percent when there was not."
- I've got a short paper on the way that's going to delve into Ken Feinberg's tenure as the pay czar for the special seven TARP companies, and to that end, I went to hear the man speak at this Wharton conference (I gave a paper there, too). He was at his best - just resigned the job to focus on mediating the often rather speculative claims of injury coming out of the Gulf oil spill. No big reveals, but it's worth noting that the AIG people wanted cash now, rather than long vesting stock, even more than most, and it's worth noting that he got his consultants Lucian Bebchuk and Kevin Murphy (the one from USC) to agree that the stock grants were the way to go. Now that's skilled mediation!
- Who will be the educational institutions that grok and enjoy a reputation for doing so for Islamic finance? They may not be American.
