The "Same Old" No Longer Works In This Market By Ven Ram, Bloomberg Markets Live analyst and commentator What used to work in the markets for ages is being challenged with a vengeance these days. Just look at the reaction of currencies to hawkish policy shifts. Earlier this year, New Zealands central bank changed tack to go from being extremely dovish (remember the talk of taking rates negative not so long ago?) to being uber hawkish (it stopped its large-scale asset purchase program abruptly and began signaling higher rates). You would be logically inclined to think that should have given the kiwi enough flight. Except that the New Zealand dollar hasnt budged meaningfully since the RBNZ raised rates, a posit MLIV made well before the central bank began its hiking cycle. And on the year, its declined about 3% against the U.S. dollar. Yet, thats not an exception. For months now, the Bank of England has been shouting from rooftops that it means to quell inflation with supreme urgency.

Elizabeth Holmes told the jury in her criminal fraud trial on Tuesday that she personally put the letterhead of pharma giants Pfizer and Schering-Plough on documents sent to potential business partners and investors without the companies'' consent. It was the most damning admission Holmes has made under oath in three days of testifying in her own defense. The former CEO of the blood-testing company Theranos is attempting to persuade the jury that she is innocent of 11 counts of fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud. Prosecutors have said Holmes forged multiple reports to give the impression that the pharmaceutical companies were endorsing Theranos devices, when in reality they had distanced themselves from the startup. Holmes said she hadn''t intended to deceive anyone but was merely attempting to acknowledge other work Theranos had done with the pharma companies. Still, it was a mistake, she said. "I wish I''d done it differently," said Holmes, speaking behind a plexiglass-enclosed witness box in a calm and confident tone.

A former IT security analyst at Sony PlayStation filed a lawsuit against the company in California on Monday, alleging gender discrimination and wrongful termination after speaking up about discrimination against females at the gaming giant. Why it matters: Video game companies are under increased scrutiny for their treatment of women in an industry long dominated by men. The Sony suit comes amid high-profile state and federal lawsuits against Call of Duty maker Activision over alleged sexual misconduct and gender-based pay disparities. Game companies ranging from Ubisoft and Riot , to indies such as Fullbright , have faced a reckoning over womens experiences working for them. Driving the news: The former IT security analyst, Emma Majo, is seeking court approval to expand her effort into a class action on behalf of women whove worked for PlayStation in the past few years. The suit alleges violations of the United States Equal Pay Act, saying: Sony discriminates against female employees, including those who are female and those who identify as female, in compensation and promotion and subjects them to a work culture predominated by men. Majo alleges that she was ignored by a manager who only responded to men, was passed over for promotions and was terminated this year after submitting a gender bias complaint to the company.
