September 22, 2020 | Offers Worth Taking Coming Down The Pike
The recent pause in bankruptcies has been enabled by cheap loans made available to companies with less than stellar balance sheets and questionable business plans.

Lately I’ve been stuck in Lunenburg, on the south shore of Nova Scotia because leaving here (even for my pad in the Big Smoke) means a 14-day quarantine upon return. It’s called the Atlantic Bubble. Anyway, here are three observations. First, the annual hurricane arrived today. Teddy. Nature is still in charge, apparently. It’s exhilarating. […]
