The Study of Failure

“In my view, the Secretary of State, should not, as a general rule, go abroad on a serious negotiation unless the odds are heavily in his favor. Since in diplomacy the margins of decisions are narrow, the psychological element can be of great consequence. A reputation for success tends to be self-fulfilling. Equally, failure feeds on itself: A Secretary of State who undertakes too many journeys that lead nowhere depreciates his coin, And it is dangerous to rely on personality or negotiating skill to break deadlocks; they cannot redeem the shortcomings of an ill-considered strategy (Jones, Frank Leith. "Haig's 'Waterloo': lessons from a failure in international mediation." International Journal on World Peace, vol. 30, no. 3, 2013, p. 7+.

The Study of Failure

“The IVEX Dam (Chagrin River, northeastern Ohio) failed catastrophically on 13 August 1994, releasing 38,000 [m.sup.3] (about 10 million gallons) of impounded water and sediment. This event was triggered by a 70-year rainfall event (13.54 cm of rainfall within 24-hours), resulting in flows 1.9 m above the top of the spillway and impinging on the top of the dam. The failure was the result of seepage piping at the toe of the dam, near the masonry spillway-earthen dam contact (EVANS, JAMES E., et al. "Lessons from a Dam Failure(1)." The Ohio Journal of Science, vol. 100, no. 5, 2000, p. 121. Academic OneFile, http://link.galegroup.com/apps/doc/A70361051/AONE?u=sfpl_main&sid=AONE&xid=cda9edfc. Accessed 10 Dec. 2018.).

The Study of Failure

“Heart failure is thought to arise when the kidneys, "protected" by bilateral stenoses, fail to mount a pressure natriuresis to high arterial pressure. The syndrome is therefore characterised by fluid retention rather than ventricular failure (Brammah, Alison, et al. "Bilateral renovascular disease causing cardiorenal failure. (Lesson of the week)." British Medical Journal, 1 Mar. 2003, p. 489+. Academic OneFile. Accessed 10 Dec. 2018.).”

Robinhood Dangles the Lure

On Friday December 14, 2018, it was announced that Robinhood, a registered broker/dealer, would offer high yield accounts to customers, but then later retracted such claims after the regulator (SIPC) said they had no idea such a product was being considered and the funds wouldn’t be insured.

Things can’t be good for the stock market in general if the most competitive way to draw in new customers isn’t with the prospect of market risk and potential gains but with “security” and savings, at a broker.
