LOS ANGELES – Tommy Lasorda, the son of Italian immigrants and a professional pitcher who became a legendary Dodgers manager, global baseball ambassador and national treasure, died on Thursday. He was 93.
Commissioner Rob Manfred issued the following statement:
“Tommy Lasorda was one of the finest managers our game has ever known. He loved life as a Dodger. His career began as a pitcher in 1949 but he is, of course, best known as the manager of two World Series champions and four pennant-winning clubs. His passion, success, charisma and sense of humor turned him into an international celebrity, a stature that he used to grow our sport. Tommy welcomed Dodger players from Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Japan, South Korea and elsewhere – making baseball a stronger, more diverse and better game. He served Major League Baseball as the Global Ambassador for the first two editions of the World Baseball Classic and managed Team USA to gold in the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney. Tommy loved family, the United States, the National Pastime and the Dodgers, and he made them all proud during a memorable baseball life.
“I am extremely fortunate to have developed a wonderful friendship with Tommy and will miss him. It feels appropriate that in his final months, he saw his beloved Dodgers win the World Series for the first time since his 1988 team. On behalf of Major League Baseball, I send my deepest sympathy to his wife of 70 years, Jo, and their entire family, the Dodger organization and their generations of loyal fans.”
In three seasons as a Major League pitcher, Lasorda went 0-4 and reminded nobody of Sandy Koufax, who replaced him on the Brooklyn roster. But as the Dodgers manager for two decades, Lasorda crafted a body of work that earned him a place alongside Koufax in baseball’s Hall of Fame.
He died after serving in his 71st season with the Dodgers, an extraordinary display of loyalty. He spent the last two decades as a special advisor to the chairman (currently Mark Walter), having been rescued by previous chairman Frank McCourt from an exile imposed when News Corp. bought the club from Peter O’Malley and his sister, Terry Seidler.

Global index providers follow Wall Street, remove Chinese telecom stocks
US index publisher MSCI and others – FTSE Russell and S&P Dow Jones Indices – announced the removal of Chinese telecom firms from their benchmarks over the US’ investment ban, triggering massive sell-off of the affected stocks.
MSCI was the latest to announce that Hong-Kong-traded securities of three Chinese companies – China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom Hong Kong – will be dropped from its indices, with the decision effective as of the close of business on Friday. Similar statements were earlier made by its British peer FTSE Russell and S&P Dow Jones Indices, with the two compilers due to drop the telecom trio not later than Monday.
All three providers cited US President Donald Trump’s order that prohibits Americans from owning or trading the securities of Chinese companies that the US claims have links to China’s military. The ban, which was introduced in November, targets over 30 firms, and has already resulted in the removal of other Chinese corporations from the global indices. Chinese corporate titans Alibaba and Tencent could also be added to the investment ban, further flaring tensions between the world’s largest economies.

The index publishers had to drop the Chinese telecom majors following the delisting decision of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), which changed its mind over the firms three times in just one week, but finally returned to the initial plan to delist their shares, creating confusion among investors and triggering wild swings in stock prices.
Though investors still have several months until November 11 to divest, the stocks of all three firms had steep losses on Friday. China Mobile shares hit a more than 14-year low and lost over four percent in Hong Kong. Similar losses were seen in China Telecom shares, while China Unicom fell by 11 percent. The sell-off wiped out over $5 billion in the affected firms’ value in Hong Kong, according to Reuters.
As some investors, including Americans, rushed to shed their holdings of the blacklisted stocks, others used the opportunity to find bargains. Mainland holdings of shares in some of the affected companies nearly tripled, Reuters said citing stock exchange operator Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd.
Some investors who see the current situation as a buying opportunity say that the course of events may change as soon as Trump officially leaves office, while others say that even if the ban stays in place, it has nothing to do with the fundamentals of the affected firms. Moreover, China may benefit from the US delisting, as the firms kicked off of US exchanges have or will have secondary listings in Hong Kong, making the market even more attractive.

Hungarians Launch Anti-Censorship Social Media Network
A newly launched Hungarian social media network claims it wants to create a censorship-free platform with a million users in a country of ten million people by the end of the year.
The new network, named Hundub, has attracted 40,000 subscribers so far after launching on December 6th, 2020, to a Hungarian audience. It is seen as a close homage to Facebook but has promised to provide users with an environment free of censors, beyond what is illegal under Hungarian law.
According to a report from French newspaper La Croix, the network has some differences from Facebook, including a button that allegedly encourages users to post politically incorrect images on the platform.
Csaba Pà l, the founder of the network, said he was surprised at the platform’s rapid growth. However, some have criticised Hundub’s launch; others have even claimed that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is secretly behind the network, which the creators have denied.
The new social media company’s formation comes after members of Orbán’s party, the conservative Fidesz, have clashed with Facebook, including Justice Minister Judit Varga.

In December, Varga accused Facebook of manipulating and changing its algorithms to decrease the number of interactions with her Facebook page. She also discussed the role of social media in the upcoming 2022 national election.
“We see what is happening in the world, we see that the power groups behind global tech companies can even make choices. We must not be naive, we must be prepared for any eventuality and the operations and decisions of these global companies must be made transparent,” she said.
Facebook later responded to the accusations, stating that the company had not taken any actions against her social media page.
While Hundub states it will be free from censorship, swastikas and the communist hammer and sickle symbol are both banned from the platform due to it operating under Hungarian law. The site’s creators hope to attract a million users by the end of 2021, in a country of around ten million.
Big Tech censorship had been a significant issue in the United States, where many social media giants like Facebook, Twitter, and Google are based.
In November, conservative political commentator Tucker Carlson stated that big tech censorship was a form of election tampering and cited a well-documented claim that Google has suppressed stories about then-candidate Joe Biden from its search algorithm.

Cryptocurrency News: Treasury's OK Of Stablecoins Opens Door For US Banks
The Department of the Treasury has given U.S. banks permission to host stablecoin infrastructure and accept transactions
Stablecoins are cryptocurrency tied to an outside variable like the dollar to reduce instability
The change could mean fast online transactions as banks use tokens tied to the dollar
The Department of the Treasury has clarified its rules, permitting U.S. banks to participate in stablecoin networks and transactions. The move makes it possible for banks to use cryptocurrency tied to the dollar to make online and cross-border transactions extremely fast without the need for federal infrastructure.
Stablecoins are cryptocurrency that resist the technology’s characteristic price volatility by tying their value to an external variable, like the dollar or commodities. They use the same blockchain technology as other cryptocurrencies, each user hosting an index to create a peer-to-peer network to verify transactions and monitor holdings.
Thanks to recent action from the Treasury, the ranks of those peers may soon include America’s largest banks. A Monday release from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the people in charge of implementing U.S. monetary policy, clarified that banks are permitted to participate in stablecoin networks and complete stablecoin transactions.
“The primary role of banks is to act as financial intermediaries, facilitating the flow of money and credit among different parts of the economy,” the announcement read. “The evolving financial needs of the economy have led to a demand for banks to use [independent node verification networks] to carry out their financial functions.”
That role of an intermediary is what has so many people excited. The Federal Reserve has been slow to create the infrastructure needed for a true digital dollar, letting other countries take the first steps toward online transactions.
With this clarification, everyone participating in the U.S. economy may not need to wait for the Fed. With banks fully able to trade stablecoins tied to the U.S. dollar, they may be able to independently create the infrastructure needed to bring U.S. currency into the digital era.
Experts are assuaging concerns that the entry of these massive institutions into the cryptocurrency market could mean problems for normal individuals. David Grider, a strategist for Fundstrat Global Advisors, told Bloomberg Tuesday that he didn’t expect the change to have a significant impact on cryptocurrency prices.

have kept a close eye on things since "imma not saying when" but…watched what they did and nearly stroked when they got to derivatives, had to watch both ends as g1 askin q's too, mofos are tricky slick and they don't make the world go round unless they gainin, the hell with the rest of us
bout right, ten years before that it was more about development of instruments and how to use them and I was moar involved with hedging for int'l trade/currency fluctuations but then………they started takin it to a level bordering on greasy ethics and there they played till it became OK and accepted, SOP, bullshit, all of it
this was also a time when they outlawed corps greasing the wheels to complete trade,SA comes to mind but they did enact currency transfers within banks that did the same thing, we were like, wut?
