...ratings spiked to 12% of all opinions after the settlement, a sign that analysts were showing some backbone. But that figure slipped to 9% last year, reports research firm StarMine. "There are still far too many buy ratings, and analysts' [earnings] estimates are increasingly clinging around company guidance," Morgan Stanley strategists Henry McVey and David McNellis wrote in a recent report...
...seniors who attend the most senior bars. “Attending” simply means getting a card stamped, thus ensuring that loads of window shoppers can “pop in,” get a stamp, then frame the certificate next year in a Morgan Stanley office. Ideally, there would be a breathalyzer at the door—if you blow below a .15, no stamp for you, chief!

Delta Airlines’ new slogan would be believable: “good...

To call the film's plot labyrinthine is to understate the case. To say it works out with complete plausibility is to overstate it. Still, the story never runs completely off the rails and is, in any event, just a pretext for a lot of very sharp badinage by Jason Smilovic--a screenwriter who would have been...
