Wade Ren's Profile

Formerly in the academia. Now investment manager, dotcom entrepreneur, angel investor and Chief Diigo!

I use Diigo because it really helps me read and digest online information more productively. If you have read those long SEC filings on sec.gov, then you should know what I mean. It is also a great way to keep in touch with my friends.

  • Op-Ed Columnist - The Joy of Sachs - NYTimes.com on 2009-08-10
    • First, it tells us that Goldman is very good at what it does. Unfortunately, what it does is bad for America.

      Second, it shows that Wall Street’s bad habits — above all, the system of compensation that helped cause the financial crisis — have not gone away.

      Third, it shows that by rescuing the financial system without reforming it, Washington has done nothing to protect us from a new crisis, and, in fact, has made another crisis more likely

    • Over the past generation — ever since the banking deregulation of the Reagan years — the U.S. economy has been “financialized.” The business of moving money around, of slicing, dicing and repackaging financial claims, has soared in importance compared with the actual production of useful stuff. The sector officially labeled “securities, commodity contracts and investments” has grown especially fast, from only 0.3 percent of G.D.P. in the late 1970s to 1.7 percent of G.D.P. in 2007.

  • Really? - The Claim - Cold Temperatures Improve Sleep - Question - NYTimes.com on 2009-08-10
