This Wednesday: talking movies at Yale
I’ll be discussing Inside Job with Steve Davidoff and Roberta Romano, at the invitation of the Yale Law & Business Society. I managed to get through the movie last night without throwing any sharp objects at the screen. I’m hoping to repeat that performance on Wednesday. Suggested reading: How movies created the financial crisis, Wall ... This Wednesday: talking movies at Yale
The Dodd-Frank debacle, takeover edition
The so-called “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” was supposed to fix the problems that led to the financial bust. Of course, that would require some understanding of what, exactly, those problems were, which Congress lacked. The Act did little to fix the credit raters or the derivatives market that surely had something ... The Dodd-Frank debacle, takeover edition
Securities prices and current events
When teaching efficient markets I like to have fun speculating about the limits of the theory. The third edition of my casebook (Ribstein & Letsou, Business Associations), had a New Yorker cartoon which showed executives looking out their high-rise window at attacking flying saucers and remarking: “Drat! I suppose the market has already discounted this, ... Securities prices and current events
More on Gupta-gate
I first addressed what I call “Gupta gate” a week ago in a post on “the SEC’s shrinking credibility.” There I noted: Guptagate is the SEC’s decision on March 1, the eve of its big Rajaratnam case, to file an administrative order against Rajat K. Gupta, former Goldman Sachs and P & G director, for ... More on Gupta-gate

Proposed Privacy Legislation
The Obama Administration is advocating a privacy bill. One provision will limit the use of data to the purpose for which it was collected unless a consumer gives permission for additional uses; another will give consumers increased rights to access information about themselves. Both of these provisions may actually reduce safety of data online. One additional purpose for which ... Proposed Privacy Legislation

March 15: Kick-Off for The Law School Hiring Cartel
If you’re currently a law professor and you’re thinking you might want to change schools (because, for example, your school continued its precipitous slide in the law school rankings . . . more about that later), you’d better hop on the phone. Today is your last day to snag a visiting offer from another law ... March 15: Kick-Off for The Law School Hiring Cartel
Lawyers and the invention of the barometer
Stephen Baker, writing in yesterday’s WSJ: Watson doesn’t “know” anything, experts say. * * * This is all enough to make you feel reinvigorated to be human. But focusing on Watson’s shortcomings misses the point. It risks distracting people from the transformation that Watson all but announced on its “Jeopardy!” debut: These question-answering machines will ... Lawyers and the invention of the barometer
The continuing mystery of the Gupta case
Friday I wondered whether the SEC’s hurried decision to administratively charge former Goldman director Gupta with insider trading suggested it was “in league with Justice to patch a gaping hole in its case against R by tainting a key witness.” Then I updated with John Carney’s story that Justice actually opposed the SEC over these ... The continuing mystery of the Gupta case
Privacy Cost-Benefit Analysis
As I mentioned in my previous post, there is a strong effort to regulate the use of information on the web in the name of “privacy.” The basic tradeoff that drives the web is that firms use information for advertising and other purposes,and in return consumers get lots of things free. Google alone offers about 40 free services, including the original ... Privacy Cost-Benefit Analysis
