Michael R. Bloomberg: "Over t=e course of one’s life, there are a few people who have a major in=luence on the way you look at the world and define what is most important.=For me, Billy Salomon was one of those people.

INVESTING

Matthew Winkler: "Greece and =razil are both synonyms for economic dysfunction. So why do investors thin= Greece is becoming a respectable bet while Brazil remains a lousy one?" Read more...<=p>

Barry Ritholtz: The S&P 500's=reliance on market valuations was an improvement over price-weighted index=s, but it was far from ideal. Read more...

PRIVACY

Katie Benner: John Oliver, th= host of "Last Week Tonight," is a critic, "but he’s a smart one. =urveillance is, he contends, just a really hard issue to get our heads aro=nd. We all want perfect privacy and perfect safety, but, he concedes, 'tho=e two things cannot co-exist.' With this sentence, he’s started a =ore nuanced conversation on national security and the NSA than most of the=stories you will read."

ASIA

Adam Minter: "Last week, the =hinese government quietly went to war against golf -- or, to be more speci=ic, against golf courses. ... But Beijing also seems intent on using the g=lf crackdown as a way to reassert its control over the country's real esta=e market." Read more..=

DECLASSIFIED

Josh Rogin: "President Barack=Obama finally got his framework nuclear deal with Iran, and now has to con=ince Congress to back off its demand for an up-or-down vote on the final p=ckage. It's going to be a tough sell." Read more...

Eli Lake: "It took a dozen ye=rs to put in place the crippling sanctions that Obama said this weekend di=n't deter Iran from building up its illicit nuclear program. Now he is on =he brink of signing an agreement that recognizes in the broadest terms the=legitimacy of the facilities (albeit with important modifications) Iran bu=lt up as those sanctions escalated. ... If he's going to sell this deal to=Congress and the American public, he'll need to explain that contradiction=" Read more...

Rogin: "In the first salvo of=the 2016 Republican ad wars, a conservative group is about to unleash a se=en-figure ad campaign targeting Senator Rand Paul for being out of step wi=h the party on Iran, just as he launches his presidential campaign."Read more...

U.S. ECONOMY

Justin Fox: "The decades-long=decline in durable-goods manufacturing employment seems to have finally en=ed. The factory job is back -- or has at least stopped disappearing. It ju=t doesn’t pay very well." Read more...

POLITICS

Jeanne Cummings: "Unions may =e weaker, smaller and more embattled, but they remain crucial players in D=mocratic politics." Re=d more...

2016 ELECTIONS

Jonathan Bernstein: "Is Hilla=y Clinton a strong candidate for president? ... No presidential candidate =s chosen by accident. The nominations are won, not inherited. And while it=shouldn’t make much difference in the general election, Clinton�=80�s accomplishments so far in the 2016 cycle are a product of her polit=cal skills." Read more=..

SPORTS

Fox: "If the writings on Athl=tics Nation are any indication, A’s fans have basically joined the=team’s front office in becoming value investors, obsessed with sta=istical comparisons and identifying missed potential. And I think their eq=animity and even enthusiasm in the face of frequent player turnover may ha=e even become an asset to the team. Maybe." Read more...
