""Long before the concept of personal brand became mainstream in the age of social mediaand before it turned into a buzzword among LinkedIn recruiters (and a commandment for anyone wanting to stand out in their field)there was someone who had already mastered it naturally instinctively and with absolute control: Taylor Swift. Throughout her career Taylor Swift has been many things. She started as the sweet teen who dreamed of making country music alongside her idols then became a young woman exploring the world on her own pouring her romantic and personal experiences into song lyrics." -"

""Argentina is once again providing a textbook example of a politicaleconomic virtuous cycle. Indeed President Javier Mileis clear victory on Sunday October [--] over the opposition in the midterm elections where he obtained almost 41% of the vote to 31% of the Peronists was greeted with market euphoria. On Monday alone the benchmark Merval index rose by over 20%. But since the Argentine peso appreciated that day the Merval rose by 32% if measured in dollars which represents its largest jump in two decades. Tuesday saw extended gains for stocks and bonds as well." - @hiperfalcon"
