The Loeb Awards are the biggest prizes focused on business journalism. Our little newsroom is up for three -- as many as the WSJ and NYT. The nominees: @bobjherman @caseymross @TaraBannow and @LizzyLaw_ for their work on $UNH; Lev Facher for his stories on opioid treatment; and (the haters will love this) @adamfeuerstein for commentary on biotech. A big congrats to my coworkers and friends and I'll be rooting for you when the awards ceremony rolls around. prnewswire.com/news-releases…

I love that smile and how Townsend handle this exchange, like "Bye Felicia."

“As the year plays out, I suggest you peek at your portfolio only when necessary.” Evergreen reminder from @SingletaryM that market dips aren’t the whole story. They're just a part of it. washingtonpost.com/business/…

Thank you!
Replying to @SingletaryM
@SingletaryM I watched your commentary on CBS News Sunday morning, and I must admit I was impressed! Excellent advice to ride the roller coaster. I've been riding the stock market for decades and I always win when I hold on and ride it out! Good job!!
