Wall Street Strategists Are Getting Wishy-Washy
Wall Street Strategists Are Getting Wishy-Washy:
With global economic uncertainty elevated, it has gotten increasingly difficult to find a Wall Street strategist willing to make a call with any conviction
This morning, UBS's US Equity Strategy team led by Jonathan Golub published a report titled Cautious But Constructive. That's Wall Street-speak for "we kinda like stocks, but we're also scared to death of them."
His note included a bearish point, a somewhat bearish point, a bullish point, and lukewarm-ish bullish point.
The four bullet points from the cover of UBS's report:
It's worth noting that Golub's team sees the S&P 500 ending the year at 1,475.

DATA: Google Totally Blows Away Facebook On Ad Performance (GOOG)
DATA: Google Totally Blows Away Facebook On Ad Performance (GOOG):
"No one ever got fired for telling clients to advertise on Facebook." That's the sarcastic mantra making its way round the digital advertising world right now. But is Facebook actually an efficient vehicle for marketers compared to the other digital ad giant, Google?
A comparison of the two companies from WordStream, a search marketing management company, suggests that Facebook is a much less effective ad medium than Google. (The caveat here is that WordStream is, obviously, rather more dependent on Google than Facebook as a medium.)
Facebook has less reach, and its individual ads are less effective, than old fashioned web advertising, according to WordStream's numbers, which it delivered—naturally—in the form of an infographic.
Most alarming for Facebook: The average click-through rate for an ad on the internet generally is just 0.1 percent. At Facebook, it's even lower: 0.051 percent. Google's CTR is 0.4 percent.

Japan’s mobile gaming industry faces a ban on lucrative ‘kompu gacha’ games
Japan’s mobile gaming industry faces a ban on lucrative ‘kompu gacha’ games:
Japan’s online and mobile games industry could soon need to generate new revenue streams with the Consumer Affairs Agency (CAA) reportedly aiming to shut-down a lucrative but controversial practice that monetises games.
“Kompu gacha” (complete gacha) is a system that incentivises gamers to buy a range of virtual items based on the premise that they could win a ‘grand prize’, or rare item, for their efforts.
However, as The Yomiuri explains, it could fall foul of national law, which forbids sales that use lottery-style incentives:

The law on unjustifiable premiums prohibits a sales method called “cards combination” for systems that offer prizes by lottery. Under this method, a business sells cards whose content is unknown at the time of purchase. After the consumer collects designated cards, they can trade them in for a prize.
