Another successful MarketsWiki Education event
Spencer Doar - JLN
Yesterday, we held our third education event in London, and it went off with nary a hitch. Over the course of three sessions hosted by the London branch of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, young professionals were treated to the insights of some of London's finest minds in business and finance  plus, John got to give his first talk in the history of the event. We had about 140 registrants.
Getting the chance to mingle with these recent graduates and current university students was truly a treat. They were a diverse bunch from a range of backgrounds and interests  everywhere from Italy to Kosovo was represented.
Steve Grob of Fidessa and Cathryn Lyall of Minnamurra Consulting really stood out. Grob's talk went in a different direction than most  he spoke about why so many businesses that the attendees will end up working for will inevitably fail. Lyall, in a wide-ranging talk, offered practical advice through the lens of her storied career in derivatives. Stay tuned for the videos of these presentations.
Thanks to our global premiere sponsor, CME Group, and to CBOE, the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and the LME for sponsoring drinks at a nearby pub.
I'm already looking forward to next year.

Dear Friends O' the 'Stache,
>From Derek Sammann, CME Group
Believe it or not, it's that time of year again when I'd like to invite you all to join me and my "Chicago Mustache Exchange" team mates in changing the face of men's health! Using the power of the humble mustache, we're again taking the fight to Prostate Cancer, Testicular Cancer and Mental Health. Over the course of "Movember", I have committed to growing hair on my upper lip for the third time in my 48 years on this planet (having broken hallowed ground on this over the last 2 years...!). I'm breaking my own personal rule of no facial hair, but if there was ever a reason to break that rule, this is clearly it!
In exchange for me looking like a very poor resemblance of 80's Tom Selleck/70's Burt Reynolds, I'd like to ask for your financial support for me and my "Chicago Mustache Exchange" team mates in this year's effort. To help me in this worthy cause, please visit my "Mo Space" donation page at: http://mobro.co/sammannstache . I've already kicked off this year's fundraising campaign by priming the pump myself, so please take a moment to visit my donation page to help me out in raising funds for this fantastic cause and posting a message! As we kick off this year's effort, here is my starting point this morning:

Agnieszka De Sousa - Bloomberg
Few things are more iconic to global commodities trading than traders shouting at each other on red leather sofas at the London Metal Exchange.
So when Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing Ltd. decided to launch a metals-trading platform in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen, executives stuck with a tried and true formula. They built a replica of the London open-outcry ring, complete with red leather sofas and big digital pricing boards hanging overhead.

Cubs Nation Is Way Bigger Than You Thought
Kyle Stock - Bloomberg
Baseball is the new football.
Television ratings for the current World Series are, to put it scientifically, boffo. When the title is decided, average viewership may well be the highest that baseball has seen in 12 years, since the Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the game's 100th championship battle, breaking Babe Ruth's curse. That's even as viewers turn away from the NFL and the Olympics, traditionally the clutch performers in the ratings game.

Was Alan Greenspan Motivated by Politics More Than Economics?
By JUSTIN FOX - NY Times
In 1959, at the annual meeting of the American Statistical Association, a 33-year-old economist named Alan Greenspan argued that central banks should beware of letting financial markets get too comfortable. The Federal Reserve's success in smoothing economic fluctuations in the 1920s, he said, had led to the dangerous belief that "the business cycle is dead." The crash and depression that followed were "inevitable" consequences of that cavalier attitude toward risk.

Switzerland's Back to Battling Might of Global Currency Markets
Bloomberg
The Swiss National Bank may have abandoned its currency cap, but that doesn't mean it has stopped capping its currency. While policy makers haven't confirmed it, they're defending a de facto franc limit more than 10 percent stronger than the one they scrapped 21 months ago, according to Bank of America Corp. and the wealth-management unit of UBS Group AG. The franc appreciated to this 1.08-per-euro threshold four times since mid-year, and each time snapped back.

Colin McClelland, Markus Karlsson and Caroline Hepker - Bloomberg
Carnegie Investment Bank AB, which manages $17.2 billion for clients, sold all of its U.K. holdings as opinion polls narrowed ahead of the June vote to exit from the European Union.
