Spotlight on Affiliates: Are they Faring Well in NYC? – usatales.com – usatales.com

As one might expect to be the case in a city that never sleeps, gambling is big business in New York. Since sports betting went live in January 2022, the Empire State quickly rose up the ranks and overtook every other jurisdiction. However, upon further analysis, the situation surrounding the nature of the industry became more complex, and the picture didn’t look as positive as it once had at first glance. New York is well known for being a high-tax environment, which has had a significant negative impact on the operators’ profits. With imposed levies in the Empire State amounting to a 51% tax rate on gambling operators and New York’s strict rules prohibiting the deduction of promotions, it has not provided as much of a lucrative environment for gambling operators to profit. But how have these restrictions had an impact on affiliates?  How Affiliates Operate If one takes an in-depth look at revenue share agreements, it’s easy to see that this is where affiliates make a substanti

Why Investors Should Warm Up To Cannabis Investing – Seeking Alpha

Nikolay Ponomarenko The cannabis sector recently set a new low. The New Cannabis Ventures Global Cannabis Stock Index , which was created at a value of 100 at the end of 2012, closed on 9/30 at an all-time low of $11.26. In October, it has lifted 11.5% to 12.55 as of 10/28: Global Cannabis Stock Index – 2017-2022 (New Cannabis Ventures) I have been following the industry since early 2013 and run a subscription service, 420 Investor, that has focused exclusively on cannabis stocks since late 2013. In this article, I am going to discuss why the market has pulled back, how I expect the trends to improve and the way investors should and should not approach investing in the sector. Why The Market Has Crashed In 2020, the cannabis sector was hammered when COVID-19 emerged as a threat to our health and to our economy in the U.S. This was the case for stocks in general too. The cannabis sector had already been beaten up late in 2019 due to a regulatory crisis regarding vaping. The

Elon Musk’s plans to revive Vine face one big problem: the reason it closed originally – MIT Technology Review

Hours later, Axios reported that Twitter’s engineers have been instructed to examine the code base behind Vine ahead of a planned relaunch later this year. (Twitter did not immediately respond to a request for comment.) The news of a potential renaissance was welcomed with wariness by Sara Beykpour, who was the technical lead for the Android version of Vine.  “This code is 6+ years old. Some of it is 10+,” tweeted Beykpour, who originally wrote the blog announcing Vine’s arrival on Android. “You don’t want to look there. If you want to revive Vine, you should start over.” (Beykpour did not respond to a request for comment.) It’s not just the prospect of wrangling decade-old code into shippable shape that should dissuade Musk from relaunching Vine—even if there’s widespread public support. The app, no matter how much it rides the wave of nostalgia, is unlikely to cut through to users who have since moved on to TikTok, the app’s spiritual successor. “Platforms have evolved since Vi

YouTube is making money from false conspiracy theories about the Paul Pelosi attack – Media Matters for America

YouTube is making money from false conspiracy theories about the attack on Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). On October 28, a man broke into the California home of Paul and Nancy Pelosi and assaulted Paul Pelosi with a hammer. The attacker reportedly shouted “Where is Nancy?” during the attack, and the alleged attacker had shared multiple far-right conspiracy theories online . There is no evidence that the alleged attacker and Paul Pelosi knew each other before the attack. Yet, a Media Matters review using the tracking tool BuzzSumo found that YouTube is running ads on — and thus monetizing — multiple videos pushing and giving credence to baseless conspiracy theories, including claims that have spread online that the alleged attacker and Paul Pelosi had a lover’s quarrel and that the attack was a false flag. Some of the videos pushed a tweet from new Twitter owner Elon Musk that spread the false lover’s quarrel conspiracy theory. Techyrack Website st

This Bear Market Could Be the Best Investing Opportunity in More Than a Decade – The Motley Fool

Some people see a glass of water as half-empty. The die-hard pessimists probably even think the water in the glass contains arsenic. I’m not in either of those groups. Count me among those who always see a glass of water as half-full. I’ll admit, though, that it’s not easy being optimistic with the current stock market environment. Most of the stocks in my portfolio are down quite a bit. However, I’m encouraged when I think about 10 or 15 years from now. Why? This bear market could be the best investing opportunity in more than a decade. Party like it’s 2009?  The late musical prodigy Prince had a big hit years ago with a song that included the lyrics, “I’m gonna party like it’s 1999.” For investors, the present (or at least the near future) could be a time to party like it’s 2009 instead. There’s no question in retrospect that 2009 was a fantastic time to buy stocks. The S&P 500 index has soared more than 320% from the beginning of 2009 through today. The Nasdaq-100 index
