The Economist Guide to Prostitution and Global Pricing
An analysis of a detailed briefing in The Economist regarding the online sex trade. The article includes charts and graphs on pricing based on physical attributes and hair color, which the hosts find absurd for a prestigious financial magazine, suggesting it serves as a guide for its banker audience.
A new report confirms a long-held observation that music piracy actually correlates with higher record sales. Data shows that CD sales peaked during the height of Napster and plummeted only after the service was shut down, suggesting that "pirates" are often a music label's best customers.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average's decline toward the 7,500 level is monitored in real-time. Technical analysis regarding market "floors" and fractals is discussed, alongside the rise of gold prices toward $1,000 per ounce. The hosts express skepticism about shorting gold in the current economic climate.
