US markets returned from a three-day weekend to snap a six-session winning streak <\/strong>that has prompted far more nervousness than usual as observers remain skiddish on fears of continued high volatility. (FT<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The recent correction that has everyone spooked was just an \u201cappetizer, not the main course.\u201d That\u2019s still to come later this year<\/strong>, Morgan Stanley says, noting that developed markets \u201cremain in the late stages of a late-cycle environment. Rising equities, rising inflation, tightening policy, higher commodity prices and higher volatility are (in our view) a pretty normal pattern if that view is correct.\u201d (CNBC<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Bitcoin has so far \u201cpretty much failed \u2026 on the traditional aspects of money,\u201d <\/strong>says Bank of England Governor Mark Carney. (CNBC<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Beware companies that want to \u201cmove beyond their names,\u201d<\/strong> as Coca-Cola CEO\u2019s seems to want to do in her quest to ensure the company becomes \u201cknown or something other than soft drinks.\u201d (WSJ<\/a>)<\/p>\n

New study suggests that counting calories may not be the (only) way to lose weight:<\/strong> The authors of a piece for the Journal of the American Medical Association found that \u201cpeople who cut back on added sugar, refined grains and highly processed foods while concentrating on eating plenty of vegetables and whole foods \u2014 without worrying about counting calories or limiting portion sizes \u2014 lost significant amounts of weight over the course of a year.\u201d (New York Times<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
