2022-04-19 14:05:00 Union Victory At Amazon Pushes Corporate America To Be Nicer To Employees

This month’s vote to start a union by Amazon warehouse workers in Staten Island, New York, sent a jolt through employers across the country. They’re nervous that if Amazon, worth $1.5 trillion, couldn’t prevent workers from organizing despite spending $4.3 million on anti-union efforts last year.

Approximately 2,600 Amazon employees voting pro-union in New York is causing ripples that may affect millions of workers and their bosses across the country. Some companies are taking no chances, even if their employees have shown zero interest in unionizing.

Union membership has been in decline for decades — falling to 10.3% of the American workforce in 2021, down from about twice that in 1983 — but there’s been increased momentum during the pandemic. Petitions to form a labor union shot up 57% in the last six months with campaigns at Amazon, Starbucks, John Deere, Kellogg’s and REI among the highest-profile. Open / Comment

2022-04-18 21:05:00 BlackRock’s Newest Investment Paves The Way For Digital Assets On Wall Street

Five years ago, BlackRock’s chairman Larry Fink famously called bitcoin an “index of money laundering.” In the years since, the world’s largest asset manager, tending some $10 trillion in client funds, has largely stayed away from digital assets.

Now, in addition to managing the primary cash reserves of USD Coin (USDC), a $50 billion digital asset available on blockchains including Ethereum, Solana, Algorand, Stellar, Avalanche and Flow, and pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar, BlackRock has entered into a broader strategic partnership with Boston-based Circle, one of the primary issuers of USDC. This was announced alongside a $400 million funding round raised by Circle from BlackRock, Fidelity Management and Research and Fin Capital.

While BlackRock declined to comment on the particulars of the deal it is looking at more than just cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, towards asset tokenization and permissioned blockchains. Open / Comment

2022-04-17 14:05:02 NASA Shows Off Spacecraft To Explore Massive Metal Asteroid Worth Way More Than Our Global Economy

NASA has been showing-off its latest spacecraft to the media. “Psyche,” still in the clean room of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, is about to be taken to Florida for its launch this August on an exciting mission to explore a mysterious — and possibly the most valuable — asteroid of the same name.

It target is officially called “16 Psyche” because it was the 16th asteroid ever discovered back in 1852. It’s also the brightest and most reflective asteroid of all, which leads scientists to suspect that it may be made largely of metal.

Scientists know of meteorites that are mostly metal, but 16 Psyche could be unique in that it might be an asteroid that is totally made of iron and nickel.

Some think that the metals that comprise Psyche could make be worth about $10,000 quadrillion. The global economy was worth about $142 trillion in 2019. Open / Comment
