New York CNN — The world learned relatively quickly that cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike was responsible for Friday’s global technology outage, but it may take longer to figure out who will pay for the damages. The outage, described by one cybersecurity expert as “the largest IT outage in history,” grounded more than 5,000 commercial flights around the world and disrupted everything from retail sales to package deliveries to hospital procedures, losing revenue and staff time and productivity. The issue was caused by some of CrowdStrike’s own faulty code in a “content update” for the software. Unfortunately, correcting a mistake takes much…

Hendrik Bessimbinder has produced some of my favorite stock market research. Bessimbinder found that four out of seven U.S. stocks have underperformed cash (one-month Treasury bills) since 1926, and the overall stock market wealth growth over that period came from just 4% of companies.
