Live，该平台允许玩家联机进行多人对战。动视暴雪大多数游戏都在Xbox游戏机上发布。贝莱德CEO：美联储“激进”立场或导致收益率曲线趋平全球最大资产管理公司贝莱德CEO Larry Fink表示，美联储快速调整货币政策以遏制通胀可能会导致美国国债收益率曲线趋于平缓。“我认为收益率曲线将会变平，如果美联储非常激进，我甚至可以看到一条负的收益率曲线，”Fink周二表示。收益率曲线的形状揭示了投资者对美国经济增长和货币政策的预期。美联储计划早于预期加息的鹰派立场推高了短期利率，使曲线变平。分析师通常认为，短期美国国债收益率与较长期美债收益率之差缩小（即收益率曲线趋平），是对经济增长和货币政策不确定性的担忧迹象。负的收益率曲线或曲线倒挂通常预示着经济衰退。“收益率曲线的形状将成为决定经济的关键问题，”Fink说。原油飙升至2014年以来高点 拜登政府称正继续与产油国合作油价升至七年高点之际，白宫称拜登政府正在与产油国合作，将确保供应达到足以满足需求的水平。美国国家安全委员会发言人Emily Horne周二在一份声明中表示，白宫计划继续在全球经济增长的背景下监控能源价格，必要时会与OPEC+国家举行磋商。Horne称，“我们会继续与产油国和消费国合作，这些措施已经对价格产生了实际影响，我们仍然保留可解决能源价格问题的工具” 。汽油价格上涨一直是导致拜登任期内通胀飙升的主要因素，白宫千方百计降低汽油成本。油价上涨正在损害拜登的支持率，民主党在11月中期选举中保住两院多数党地位的难度加大。研究显示omicron感染浪潮可能降低疫情未来的严重程度南非的研究人员表示，虽然omicron变种病毒引发一轮强烈的新冠疫情浪潮，但却可能会加速大流行病所造成各种干扰的终结，因为感染omicron的症状似乎较轻，并能提供针对德尔塔变种病毒的保护。南非一个实验室将去年11月和12月感染omicron的23人作为样本进行的研究显示，虽然先前感染了德尔塔毒株的人可以感染omicron，但感染omicron株的人不会再感染德尔塔。尽管omicron的感染力明显高于德尔塔，但包括南非在内的一些国家的医院和死亡率数据似乎表明，它导致的疾病严重程度较低。南非是最早出现omicron感染浪潮的国家。南非卫生研究所Alex Sigal等人的这项研究显示，omicron可以取代德尔塔毒株。“这种取代的影响将取决于omicron的致病性是否确实低于德尔塔，”研究人员说。 “如果的确如此，那么Covid-19重症的发生率将降低，疫情对个人和社会的破坏性将会减弱。”2021年苹果手机占全球智能手机出货量22% 位居第一数据研究机构Canalys发布的最新报告显示，得益于iPhone 13的成功，苹果手机在2021年占全球智能手机出货量的22%，坐上全球智能手机市场的头把交椅，三星以20%的市场份额紧随其后。此外，小米以12%排名第三，OPPO以9%排名第四，vivo以8%排名前五。报告显示，截至2021年底，苹果手机占全球智能手机出货量的22%。Canalys指出，苹果上一次在智能手机市场排名第一是在2020年第四季度。Canalys分析师Sanyam Chaurasia在一份声明中表示：“苹果iPhone新旗舰机在中国市场表现十分强劲。”“苹果的供应链开始复苏，但由于关键零部件短缺，苹果在第四季度仍被迫减产，无法生产足够的iPhone来满足需求。”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1117,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":696459703,"gmtCreate":1640752476822,"gmtModify":1640752476976,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like

Here’s what you need to know before trying to make changes to your portfolio.\nIs the Stock Market Closed on Black Friday?\nNo, the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq will be open on Black Friday. But you’ll have to get your trades in early, because both close at 1 p.m. Eastern.\nU.S. bond markets and U.S. over-the-counter markets will shut down at 2 p.m.\nAre Foreign Stock Exchanges Open on Black Friday?\nThe Toronto Stock Exchange, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange will all be open on Black Friday.\nHow Has the Stock Market Previously Performed on Black Friday?\nFrom 2001 to 2020, the S&P 500‘s performance on Black Friday was mixed, finishing up just half of the time. The index gained more than 1% on three Black Fridays—in 2001, 2007, and 2012—while it slipped 1.7% on the “retail holiday” in 2009.\nWhat Does Black Friday Mean for Retailers?\nInvestors have been optimistic in the leadup to the holiday season. Many retailers have had to learn how to leverage the pandemic for their physical stores—and they’ve seen increased bricks-and-mortar shopping.\nLast week, retail giant Walmart (ticker: WMT) reported third-quarter earnings and sales that beat Wall Street estimates, with the company raising its fiscal-year guidance. Home Depot(HD) also reported third-quarter earnings that beat earnings expectations, thanks to continued interest in home improvement amid a strong housing market.\nRetail stocks have largely performed well so far this year: the SPDR S&P Retail exchange-traded fund (XRT) is up roughly 60%, while the S&P 500 has gained around 25%. The Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Consumer Discretionary ETF (RCD), which is evenly weighted so that price movements aren’t too swayed by any one stock,has climbed about 30%.\nIs the Stock Market Open on Cyber Monday?\nYes. The New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq will return to normal trading hours and open at 9:30 a.m. Eastern on Nov. 29th, or Cyber Monday, when many retailers are planning to offer special discounts online.\nU.S. bond markets and U.S. over-the-counter markets will also resume regular hours of operation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":427,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":874424137,"gmtCreate":1637814257988,"gmtModify":1637814258052,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/874424137","repostId":"2186364091","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":461,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":875825294,"gmtCreate":1637633958835,"gmtModify":1637633958835,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/875825294","repostId":"2185306806","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":514,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":872563548,"gmtCreate":1637548503301,"gmtModify":1637548503411,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/872563548","repostId":"1153786917","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153786917","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1637534687,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1153786917?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-22 06:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Best Buy, Zoom, Pinduoduo, Xpeng,Xiaomi,Meituan and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153786917","media":"Barrons","summary":"The tail end of third-quarter earnings season will bring more results from major retailers next week","content":"<p>The tail end of third-quarter earnings season will bring more results from major retailers next week, just as shoppers prepare for Black Friday.

as the vast majority of institutional and individual investors do - can vote for whichever combination of director nominees they think best serves their interests.”\nAn influential proxy adviser, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), called the measure “a significant milestone” that ensures corporate elections are “fair, transparent, and efficient.”\nElad Roisman, a Republican commissioner, voted in favor of the measure but said he would have preferred that the rule require those launching a proxy contest to meet certain eligibility criteria, such as thresholds of ownership in the target company or holding periods for the company’s stock.\n“Such criteria would demonstrate that a dissident has an economic stake or investment interest in the target company.”\nADDITIONAL PROXY ADVISER MEASURE\nThe U.S. markets regulator also voted to propose a measure that requires enhanced disclosure and voting options in all corporate director elections.\nSubject to public consultation before it can be adopted, the proposal would rescind a Trump-era rule that sought to restrict proxy advisory firms, which recommend to investors how to vote and cast ballots on behalf of some asset managers.\nThis SEC proposal would undo, among other previous restrictions, a condition that required proxy advisory firms to make their advice available to companies that are the subject of their advice at or before the meeting.\nOn Wednesday, industry groups like the National Association of Manufacturers said they were “extremely concerned” that the SEC proposed revisions to a 2020 proxy rule “absent of any new information about its impact on the market.”\nThe powerful U.S. Chamber of Commerce criticized the move as a sign the agency “is not serious about rooting out and eliminating misinformation and conflicts of interest in the proxy process.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":430,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":878317528,"gmtCreate":1637148917193,"gmtModify":1637148917249,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/878317528","repostId":"1163497205","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163497205","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1637148437,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1163497205?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-17 19:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Biden heads to Detroit to tout U.S. investment in electric vehicle market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163497205","media":"Reuters","summary":"President Joe Biden will take his victory tour celebrating a new U.S. infrastructure law to Detroit ","content":"<p>President Joe Biden will take his victory tour celebrating a new U.S. infrastructure law to Detroit on Wednesday to tout investments aimed at boosting the market for electric vehicles.</p>\n<p>Biden, a Democrat,signed&nbsp;the $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law on Monday and, with his approval ratings sagging, is eager to promote it as the fulfillment of a promise he made as a presidential candidate in the 2020 race for the White House.</p>\n<p>The law, which passed with support from Democrats and Republicans, provides $7.5 billion in funding to build out the nation’s electric vehicle charging network, investments the industry says will inspire more Americans to buy electric vehicles and manufacturers to produce them.</p>\n<p>It provides money to build EV chargers along highway corridors and within communities to help facilitate long-distance and local travel.</p>\n<p>Biden will highlight the investments during a visit to a General Motors Co(GM.N)&nbsp;electric vehicle assembly plant in Detroit, the largest city in Michigan, a key political battleground state in U.S. elections.</p>\n<p>The president will deliver remarks on how the law \"builds electric vehicle charging stations across the country to make it easier to drive an electric vehicle, reduces emissions to fight the climate crisis, and creates good-paying, union jobs across the country,\" the White House said in a statement.</p>\n<p>A broad transition to electric cars and trucks will help the United States meet Biden's pledge to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions 50% from 2005 levels by 2030.</p>\n<p>Democrats are working on a separate social spending and climate bill that contains up to $12,500 in tax credits for U.S.-made EVs, including a $4,500 credit for union-made vehicles.

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”</p>\n<p><b>But ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.</b></p>\n<p><b>A Man In Search Of Himself:</b>&nbsp;Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.</p>\n<p>The Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He&nbsp;attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.</p>\n<p>Ebbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,<b>Linda Pigott,</b>after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.</p>\n<p>But Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.</p>\n<p>Ebbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric.&nbsp;He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.</p>\n<p><b>Calling Out Around The World:</b>Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup of<b>AT&amp;T Inc.'s</b>&nbsp;T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.</p>\n<p>In 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.</p>\n<p>Ebbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with&nbsp;<b>Long Distance Discount Services,</b>&nbsp;which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.</p>\n<p><b>Carl J. Aycock,</b>a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.</p>\n<p>“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.</p>\n<p>Maybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.</p>\n<p>Within 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in&nbsp;sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.</p>\n<p>Many of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of&nbsp;<b>Advanced Telecommunications Corporation</b>&nbsp;in 1992.</p>\n<p>The unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&amp;T and&nbsp;<b>Sprint Corporation,</b>both considerably larger players in this field.</p>\n<p>The one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to&nbsp;<b>Kristie Webb.</b></p>\n<p>In February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for&nbsp;<b>CompuServe</b>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<b>H&amp;R Block Inc</b>.</p>\n<p>This transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition to<b>America Online,</b>while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.</p>\n<p>In September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with&nbsp;<b>MCI Communications,</b>which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit —&nbsp;except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.</p>\n<p><b>A Little Out Of Touch:</b>One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.</p>\n<p>At the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.</p>\n<p>“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”</p>\n<p>But as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.</p>\n<p>And for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”</p>\n<p>While Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.</p>\n<p><b>In retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw</b>, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.</p>\n<p><b>Detour Off The Cliff:</b>The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom —&nbsp;which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country —&nbsp;announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier. Within nine months of this announcement, the merger was canceled in the face of pressure from U.S. and European regulators who feared a telecom monopoly would be born from this union. MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.</p>\n<p>With the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.</p>\n<p>Worldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a&nbsp;senior manager ordering&nbsp;a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.</p>\n<p>The company’s chief technical officer,<b>Fred Briggs,</b>then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project —&nbsp;and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.</p>\n<p>A WorldCom budget analyst named&nbsp;<b>Kim Amigh</b>in the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh —&nbsp;three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.</p>\n<p>But Vice President of Internal Audit&nbsp;<b>Cynthia Cooper</b>&nbsp;learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 —&nbsp;except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.</p>\n<p>Cooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy. Most executives said it was a “prepaid capacity,” a meaningless term which they couldn’t define when pressed by Cooper.</p>\n<p>And Cooper was not alone in her suspicions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could not fathom how WorldCom continued to claim robust profits during the dot-com period while its competitors were operating at a loss, and it sent forth a “Request for Information” to learn the secret of its success.</p>\n<p>Adding to this chaos were Ebbers’ personal financial woes, which became exacerbated during to dot-com crisis by margin calls on his WorldCom shares, which were tanking as the economy plummeted into a recession.</p>\n<p>To alleviate his monetary pain, Ebbers borrowed $50 million from WorldCom in September 2000&nbsp;— and then borrowed again&nbsp;and again. By April 2002, Ebbers was $400 million in debt to WorldCom and the board of directors demanded his resignation, which he provided.</p>\n<p>In June 2002, WorldCom acknowledged its earnings reports contained $3.9 billion in accounting misstatements, with the figure&nbsp;later adjusted to $11 billion. In July 2002, the company declared bankruptcy and was delisted from public trading. Also during that month, Ebbers was called before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services to explain what happened. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment.</p>\n<p><b>Road’s End:</b>The efforts to bring Ebbers to trial got off to a weird start when the State of Oklahoma jumped the gun with a 15-count indictment, only to drop its charges in favor of federal prosecution.</p>\n<p>Ebbers was indicted in May 2004 on seven counts of filing false statements with securities regulators plus one count each of conspiracy and securities fraud. Ebbers agreed to testify on his behalf, which many observers later considered to be a major mistake because he came across as evasive and unconvincing when insisting WorldCom’s downfall was solely the fault of his subordinates and that he was ignorant about how his company worked.</p>\n<p>“I know what I don’t know,” Ebbers said during his trial. “To this day, I don’t know technology, and I don’t know finance or accounting.”</p>\n<p>Ebbers was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to 25 years in prison, the longest sentence ever handed down in U.S. history for a financial fraud case against a corporate executive.</p>\n<p>He remained free on bail while fighting to overturn the verdict, but the conviction was upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in July 2006. Two months later, he drove himself in his luxury Mercedes-Benz to a low-security Louisiana prison to begin his sentence. Two years later, his wife Kristie successfully filed for divorce.</p>\n<p>After 13 years behind bars, Ebbers was granted a compassionate release on Dec. 21, 2019, due to a deteriorating state of health that included macular degeneration that left him legally blind, anemia, a weakened heart condition and the beginnings of dementia. He returned to his home in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and passed away on Feb. 2, 2020.</p>\n<p>In defining his rise to the top, Ebbers harkened back to his basketball days by insisting, “The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.” But in explaining his fall from grace, Ebbers forgot that the core of coaching is accepting responsibility for the team’s performance and he blamed his “best players” for not being able to “play together” while absolving himself from their errors.</p>\n<p>Said Ebbers when confronted with his ultimate failure as the corporate equivalent of a coach: “I didn't have anything to apologize for.”</p>\n<p></p>","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”\nBut ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.\nA Man In Search Of Himself: Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.\nThe Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.\nEbbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,Linda Pigott,after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.\nBut Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.\nEbbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric. He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.\nCalling Out Around The World:Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup ofAT&T Inc.'s T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.\nIn 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.\nEbbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with Long Distance Discount Services, which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.\nCarl J. Aycock,a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.\n“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.\nMaybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.\nWithin 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.\nMany of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of Advanced Telecommunications Corporation in 1992.\nThe unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&T and Sprint Corporation,both considerably larger players in this field.\nThe one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to Kristie Webb.\nIn February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for CompuServe from H&R Block Inc.\nThis transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition toAmerica Online,while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.\nIn September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with MCI Communications,which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit — except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.\nA Little Out Of Touch:One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.\nAt the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.\n“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”\nBut as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.\nAnd for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”\nWhile Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.\nIn retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems.

The bill is a key pillar of Biden's domestic agenda but has faced hurdles to passage from competing views between progressive and moderate lawmakers in his party.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":431,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":897193208,"gmtCreate":1628897770404,"gmtModify":1633688736043,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/897193208","repostId":"2159215280","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":268,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":890587673,"gmtCreate":1628123932792,"gmtModify":1633753398541,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it","listText":"Like it","text":"Like it","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/890587673","repostId":"1103537786","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":179,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":803686062,"gmtCreate":1627436194256,"gmtModify":1633765012507,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like the comment","listText":"Pls like the comment","text":"Pls like the comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/803686062","repostId":"2154991792","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":141,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":605262947,"gmtCreate":1639182430205,"gmtModify":1639182430374,"author":{"id":"3583750403365476","authorId":"3583750403365476","name":"gov","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e50e768a875518adb25631ba4c32578f","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3583750403365476","authorIdStr":"3583750403365476"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/605262947","repostId":"1133027099","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1133027099","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1639152670,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1133027099?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-11 00:11","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Sea Ltd stock dropped more than 5% in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1133027099","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Sea Ltd stock dropped more than 5% in morning trading.","content":"<p>Sea Ltd stock dropped more than 5% in morning trading.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f6295277426435ac2c7135ba73dfbdef\" tg-width=\"840\" tg-height=\"470\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”</p>\n<p><b>But ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.</b></p>\n<p><b>A Man In Search Of Himself:</b>&nbsp;Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.</p>\n<p>The Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He&nbsp;attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.</p>\n<p>Ebbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,<b>Linda Pigott,</b>after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.</p>\n<p>But Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.</p>\n<p>Ebbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric.&nbsp;He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.</p>\n<p><b>Calling Out Around The World:</b>Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup of<b>AT&amp;T Inc.'s</b>&nbsp;T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.</p>\n<p>In 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.</p>\n<p>Ebbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with&nbsp;<b>Long Distance Discount Services,</b>&nbsp;which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.</p>\n<p><b>Carl J. Aycock,</b>a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.</p>\n<p>“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.</p>\n<p>Maybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.</p>\n<p>Within 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in&nbsp;sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.</p>\n<p>Many of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of&nbsp;<b>Advanced Telecommunications Corporation</b>&nbsp;in 1992.</p>\n<p>The unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&amp;T and&nbsp;<b>Sprint Corporation,</b>both considerably larger players in this field.</p>\n<p>The one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to&nbsp;<b>Kristie Webb.</b></p>\n<p>In February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for&nbsp;<b>CompuServe</b>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<b>H&amp;R Block Inc</b>.</p>\n<p>This transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition to<b>America Online,</b>while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.</p>\n<p>In September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with&nbsp;<b>MCI Communications,</b>which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit —&nbsp;except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.</p>\n<p><b>A Little Out Of Touch:</b>One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.</p>\n<p>At the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.</p>\n<p>“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”</p>\n<p>But as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.</p>\n<p>And for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”</p>\n<p>While Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.</p>\n<p><b>In retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw</b>, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems. As a result, Ebbers’ XL-sized business empire was sustained by taking on massive amounts of debt and highly improper accounting.</p>\n<p><b>Detour Off The Cliff:</b>The first cracks in this corporate story began in October 1999 when MCI WorldCom —&nbsp;which had become the second-largest long-distance telephone company in the country —&nbsp;announced a $129 billion merger with Sprint, the third-largest telecom carrier. Within nine months of this announcement, the merger was canceled in the face of pressure from U.S. and European regulators who feared a telecom monopoly would be born from this union. MCI WorldCom walked away from the failure by renaming itself as WorldCom.</p>\n<p>With the rise of the new millennium came the fall of the dot-com industry, and almost any company that had a tech-related aspect found itself taking a financial tumble. When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.</p>\n<p>Worldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a&nbsp;senior manager ordering&nbsp;a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.</p>\n<p>The company’s chief technical officer,<b>Fred Briggs,</b>then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project —&nbsp;and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.</p>\n<p>A WorldCom budget analyst named&nbsp;<b>Kim Amigh</b>in the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh —&nbsp;three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.</p>\n<p>But Vice President of Internal Audit&nbsp;<b>Cynthia Cooper</b>&nbsp;learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail. Her department began combing through WorldCom’s accounts and found $2 billion that the company claimed in its public filings was spent on capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2001 —&nbsp;except that the funds were never authorized for that purpose and were clearly operating costs moved into the capital expenditure accounting as a way to make WorldCom look more profitable.</p>\n<p>Cooper could not find anyone in the WorldCom leadership ranks to explain the $2 billion discrepancy. Most executives said it was a “prepaid capacity,” a meaningless term which they couldn’t define when pressed by Cooper.</p>\n<p>And Cooper was not alone in her suspicions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could not fathom how WorldCom continued to claim robust profits during the dot-com period while its competitors were operating at a loss, and it sent forth a “Request for Information” to learn the secret of its success.</p>\n<p>Adding to this chaos were Ebbers’ personal financial woes, which became exacerbated during to dot-com crisis by margin calls on his WorldCom shares, which were tanking as the economy plummeted into a recession.</p>\n<p>To alleviate his monetary pain, Ebbers borrowed $50 million from WorldCom in September 2000&nbsp;— and then borrowed again&nbsp;and again. By April 2002, Ebbers was $400 million in debt to WorldCom and the board of directors demanded his resignation, which he provided.</p>\n<p>In June 2002, WorldCom acknowledged its earnings reports contained $3.9 billion in accounting misstatements, with the figure&nbsp;later adjusted to $11 billion. In July 2002, the company declared bankruptcy and was delisted from public trading. Also during that month, Ebbers was called before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services to explain what happened. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment.</p>\n<p><b>Road’s End:</b>The efforts to bring Ebbers to trial got off to a weird start when the State of Oklahoma jumped the gun with a 15-count indictment, only to drop its charges in favor of federal prosecution.</p>\n<p>Ebbers was indicted in May 2004 on seven counts of filing false statements with securities regulators plus one count each of conspiracy and securities fraud. Ebbers agreed to testify on his behalf, which many observers later considered to be a major mistake because he came across as evasive and unconvincing when insisting WorldCom’s downfall was solely the fault of his subordinates and that he was ignorant about how his company worked.</p>\n<p>“I know what I don’t know,” Ebbers said during his trial. “To this day, I don’t know technology, and I don’t know finance or accounting.”</p>\n<p>Ebbers was found guilty on all counts and was sentenced to 25 years in prison, the longest sentence ever handed down in U.S. history for a financial fraud case against a corporate executive.</p>\n<p>He remained free on bail while fighting to overturn the verdict, but the conviction was upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in July 2006. Two months later, he drove himself in his luxury Mercedes-Benz to a low-security Louisiana prison to begin his sentence. Two years later, his wife Kristie successfully filed for divorce.</p>\n<p>After 13 years behind bars, Ebbers was granted a compassionate release on Dec. 21, 2019, due to a deteriorating state of health that included macular degeneration that left him legally blind, anemia, a weakened heart condition and the beginnings of dementia. He returned to his home in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and passed away on Feb. 2, 2020.</p>\n<p>In defining his rise to the top, Ebbers harkened back to his basketball days by insisting, “The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.” But in explaining his fall from grace, Ebbers forgot that the core of coaching is accepting responsibility for the team’s performance and he blamed his “best players” for not being able to “play together” while absolving himself from their errors.</p>\n<p>Said Ebbers when confronted with his ultimate failure as the corporate equivalent of a coach: “I didn't have anything to apologize for.”</p>\n<p></p>","source":"lsy1606299360108","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

He famously refused to communicate with his workforce via email. Even worse, he stood out thanks to a prickly personality that quickly seethed when confronted with unpleasant news. A 2002 profile in The Economist defined him as “parochial, stubborn, preoccupied with penny-pinching … a difficult man to work for.”\nBut ultimately, Ebbers stood out for being at the center of what was (at the time) the largest accounting fraud in U.S. history, which was followed by the harshest prison sentence ever imposed on a corporate executive for financial crimes.\nA Man In Search Of Himself: Bernard John Ebbers was born Aug. 27, 1941, in Edmonton, Alberta, the second of five children. His father John was a traveling salesman and his peripatetic profession brought the family down from Canada into California, where he jettisoned his sales work and became an auto mechanic. The family later relocated to Gallup, New Mexico, where Ebbers’ parents became teachers on the Navajo Nation Indian reservation.\nThe Ebbers clan was back in Canada when Ebbers was a teenager and Bernie (as he was commonly known) came into adulthood unable to determine a course for his life. He attended Canada’s University of Alberta and Michigan’s Calvin College before accepting a basketball scholarship to Mississippi College. But he was the victim of a robbery prior to his senior year that left him seriously injured and switched his attention from playing to coaching the junior varsity team.\nEbbers graduated in 1967 majoring in physical education and minoring in secondary education. He supported himself during his college years by taking on a variety of odd jobs including a bouncer and milk delivery driver. He married his college sweetheart,Linda Pigott,after graduating and landed work teaching science to middle-school students while coaching high school basketball.\nBut Ebbers didn’t stay very long in the school system. When his wife received a job offer as a teacher in another Mississippi town, the couple relocated and he found work managing a garment factory warehouse. By 1974, he tired of working for others and responded to a newspaper advertisement seeking a buyer for a motel in Columbia, Mississippi.\nEbbers’ approach to running a hospitality establishment sometimes bordered on the eccentric. He would distribute bathroom towels at the front desk and require guests to return them to avoid being charged for taking them. Nonetheless, he found a niche in hospitality management and by the early 1980s he owned and operated eight motels within Mississippi and Texas; he also picked up a car dealership that also proved profitable.\nCalling Out Around The World:Ebbers might have remained in the Mississippi hospitality industry had it not been for the 1982 breakup ofAT&T Inc.'s T 0.41%monopoly on the U.S. telephone system. This created a seismic shift in the telecommunications world by enabling other companies to begin reselling long-distance telephone services.\nIn 1983, Ebbers and three friends met at a diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to consider the feasibility of pursuing this newly opened opportunity. Ebbers theorized that having control of his long-distance calling services could benefit his motel business. In the days before mobile phones, guests in lodging establishments in need of long-distance calling would either have to feed handfuls of quarters into payphones or make calls from their rooms, which usually came with extra fees.\nEbbers and his pals decided to get into the telecommunications business with Long Distance Discount Services, which they established in 1985 with headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi, with Ebbers as CEO.\nCarl J. Aycock,a Mississippi financial advisor who was among the early investors in LDDS, would later laugh at the unlikelihood of Ebbers running a telecom company.\n“The only experience Bernie had before operating a long-distance company was he used the phone,” Aycock quipped in a 1997 interview.\nMaybe Ebbers did not possess an encyclopedic knowledge of telecommunications technology, but the good fortune he enjoyed in the motel business transitioned to this unlikely setting. Within four years of its launch, LDDS was being publicly traded.\nWithin 10 years of its opening, LDDS took on an almost Pac Man-style persona of gobbling up telecom firms in sight of the company, acquiring more than 60 different telecommunications company. By 1995, the company renamed itself LDDS WorldCom.\nMany of the company’s acquisitions were on the small side, and the company was never considered a major player in the telecom industry until its $720 million acquisition of Advanced Telecommunications Corporation in 1992.\nThe unlikely acquisition came with Ebbers’ ability to outbid industry titans AT&T and Sprint Corporation,both considerably larger players in this field.\nThe one unfortunate development during this time was the end of Ebbers’ marriage in 1997. He remarried in 1999 to Kristie Webb.\nIn February 1998, Ebbers’ company launched its acquisition plans for CompuServe from H&R Block Inc.\nThis transaction was followed by an astonishing spin of assets: LDDS sold the CompuServe Information Service portion of its acquisition toAmerica Online,while retaining the CompuServe Network Services portion of the business. AOL simultaneously sold LDDS WorldCom its networking division, Advanced Network Services.\nIn September 1998, LDDS WorldCom sealed a $37 billion union with MCI Communications,which created the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. The combined entity became MCI WorldCom, and for Ebbers it seemed that the sky was the limit — except that Ebbers’ ability to soar in the corporate skies resulted in an Icarus-worthy predicament.\nA Little Out Of Touch:One year after the CompuServe and MCI deals, Ebbers’ company boasted an 80,000-person workforce, a market capitalization of roughly $185 billion and its shares were trading at a peak of nearly $62.\nAt the peak of the company’s success, Ebbers granted an interview to The New York Times aboard his 130-yacht, which he berthed in the resort town of Hilton Head, South Carolina. He claimed that the secret of his success was “not as complicated as people make it out to be,” adding that he surrounded himself with experts who advised him on which moves to make.\n“I’m not an engineer by training,” he said. “I’m not an accountant by training. I’m the coach. I’m not the point guard who shoots the ball.”\nBut as the company grew larger, Ebbers penny-pinching behavior during his early motel management days became more extreme. WorldCom executives would later complain that Ebbers stopped providing free coffee within their offices and directed security guards fill the water coolers with tap water.\nAnd for the head of a telecommunications company, Ebbers was curiously distrustful of cutting-edge tech developments. He refused to communicate via email and would not carry a pager or a cell phone. He would explain his actions internally by repeating “That’s the way we did it at LDDS,” and in a 1997 Business Week interview about this behavior he claimed that “when you come to the table with a (physical education) degree like I do, you don't know a lot about the technical stuff.”\nWhile Ebbers’ arms-length distance from personal technology could have been attributed to a zany quirk, there was another problem that couldn’t be happily shrugged away. As the company expanded, operational problems began to permeate the multiple divisions. Ebbers would become impatient or worse when confronted with problems, to the point that he would angrily demand that he only wanted to be addressed with good news.\nIn retrospect, Ebbers’ refusal to acknowledge that his company was growing too fast and too large proved to be a fatal flaw, especially when the corporate culture began to manufacture good news in lieu of reporting problems.

When Ebbers’ company tried to cut corners and save money, it turned into an act of self-immolation.\nWorldcom’s network systems engineering division exhausted its annual capital expenditures budget by November 2000, with a senior manager ordering a halt to processing payments for network systems vendors and suppliers until the beginning of 2001.\nThe company’s chief technical officer,Fred Briggs,then ordered all of the labor associated with the capital projects in the network systems division to be booked as an expense rather than a capital project — and his directive was shared with other divisions in the company.\nA WorldCom budget analyst named Kim Amighin the company’s Richardson, Texas, office recognized the legal ramifications of intentionally mischaracterizing capital expenses and lodged a protest against the order. The directive was canceled and so was Amigh — three months after his action, Amigh was abruptly laid off from the company.\nBut Vice President of Internal Audit Cynthia Cooper learned of Amigh’s findings and picked up his trail.
