I read your post about open enrollment for the ACA and was hoping you might expand on why you believe it would take years to dismantle. I've been terrified that with a Republican house/senate, Trump could just snap his fingers and make it go away within months of taking office. I'd love some reassurance that that's not possible.

Hiya, sure I can share some thoughts on the matter! First, it's very important to understand the ACA is a huuuuuuuuuuuuge system with subject matter experts in dozens of places throughout the process. I'm one of those SMEs, but I am at the end of the process where the revenue is generated, so my insight is limited on the public facing pieces.

What this means is that I am professionally embedded in the ACA in a position that exists purely to show what conditions people are treated for and then generate that data into what's called a "risk score". There's about 6 pages I could write on it, but the takeaway is that the ACA is

1) intricately interwoven with the federal government

2) increasingly profitable, sustainable, and growing (it is STILL a for-profit system if you can believe it)

3) wholeheartedly invested in by the largest insurance companies in the country LARGELY due to the fact that they finally learned the rules of how to make the ACA a thriving center of business

4) since the big issuers are arm+leg invested in the ACA, there is a lot of resistance politically and on an industry level to leave it behind (think of the lobbyists, politicians, corporations that will fight tooth and nail to protect their profit + investment)

The process to calculate a risk score takes roughly 2 years. There is an audit for the concurrent year and then a vigorous retro audit for the prev year - - this is a rolling cycle every year. Medicare has a similar process. These are RVP + RADV audits if you would like the jargon.

Eliminating the ACA abruptly is as internally laughable as us finishing the RADV audit ahead of schedule. If Trump were to blow the ACA into smithereens on day 1, he would be drowning in issuer complaints and an economic health sector that is essentially bleeding out. You cut off the RVP early? We have half of next RADV stuck in the gears now. You cut off the RADV early? No issuer will get their "risk adjusted" payments for services rendered in the prev benefit year (to an extent, again very complex multi-process system).

The ACA is GREAT for the public and should be defended on that basis alone. However, the inner capitalistic nature of the ACA is a powerful armor that has conservatives + liberals defending it on a basis of capital + market growth. It's not sexy, but it makes too much money consistently for the system to be easily dismantled.

Or at least that's what I can tell you from the money center of the ACA. they don't bring us up in political conversation because we are confusing to seasoned professionals, boring to industry outsiders, and consistently we are anathema to the anti-ACA talking points.

I am already preparing for next year's RVP for this window of open enrollment. That RVP process will feed into the RADV in 2026. In 2025, we begin the RADV for 2024. If nothing else, the slow fucking gears of CMS will keep the ACA alive until we finish our work at the end of the process. I highly doubt that will be the only reason the ACA is safeguarded, but it is a powerful type of support to pair with people protecting the ACA for other reasons.

I work every day to show, defend, and educate on how many diagnoses are managed thru my company's ACA plans. My specialty is cancer and I see a lot of it. The revenue drive comes from the Medical Loss Ratio (MLR) rule stating only 20% MAX of profit may go to the issuer + the 80% at a minimum must go back to the customer or be invested in expanding benefits. The more people on the plan using it, the higher that 20% becomes for the issuer and the more impactful that 80% becomes for the next year of benefit growth. It is remarkably profitable once issuers stop seeking out "healthy populations". The ACA is a functional method for issuers to tap into a stable customer base (sick/chronic ill customers) that turns a profit, grows, and builds strong consumer bases in each state.

The industry can never walk away from this overnight - - this is the preferred investment for many big players. Changing the direction of those businesses will be a monumental effort that takes years (at least 2 with the audits). In the meantime, you still have benefits, you still have care, and you still have reason to sign up. Let us deal with the bureaucracy bullshit, go get your care and know you have benefits thru 2025 and we will be working to keep it that way for 2026 and forward. This is a wing of the federal government, it is not a jenga tower like Trump wishes.

Too big to care

I'm on tour with my new, nationally bestselling novel The Bezzle! Catch me in BOSTON with Randall "XKCD" Munroe (Apr 11), then PROVIDENCE (Apr 12), and beyond!

Remember the first time you used Google search? It was like magic. After years of progressively worsening search quality from Altavista and Yahoo, Google was literally stunning, a gateway to the very best things on the internet.

Today, Google has a 90% search market-share. They got it the hard way: they cheated. Google spends tens of billions of dollars on payola in order to ensure that they are the default search engine behind every search box you encounter on every device, every service and every website:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/03/not-feeling-lucky/#fundamental-laws-of-economics

Not coincidentally, Google's search is getting progressively, monotonically worse. It is a cesspool of botshit, spam, scams, and nonsense. Important resources that I never bothered to bookmark because I could find them with a quick Google search no longer show up in the first ten screens of results:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/02/21/im-feeling-unlucky/#not-up-to-the-task

Even after all that payola, Google is still absurdly profitable. They have so much money, they were able to do a $80 billion stock buyback. Just a few months later, Google fired 12,000 skilled technical workers. Essentially, Google is saying that they don't need to spend money on quality, because we're all locked into using Google search. It's cheaper to buy the default search box everywhere in the world than it is to make a product that is so good that even if we tried another search engine, we'd still prefer Google.

This is enshittification. Google is shifting value away from end users (searchers) and business customers (advertisers, publishers and merchants) to itself:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/03/05/the-map-is-not-the-territory/#apor-locksmith

And here's the thing: there are search engines out there that are so good that if you just try them, you'll get that same feeling you got the first time you tried Google.

When I was in Tucson last month on my book-tour for my new novel The Bezzle, I crashed with my pals Patrick and Teresa Nielsen Hayden. I've know them since I was a teenager (Patrick is my editor).

We were sitting in his living room on our laptops – just like old times! – and Patrick asked me if I'd tried Kagi, a new search-engine.

Teresa chimed in, extolling the advanced search features, the "lenses" that surfaced specific kinds of resources on the web.

I hadn't even heard of Kagi, but the Nielsen Haydens are among the most effective researchers I know – both in their professional editorial lives and in their many obsessive hobbies. If it was good enough for them…

I tried it. It was magic.

No, seriously. All those things Google couldn't find anymore? Top of the search pile. Queries that generated pages of spam in Google results? Fucking pristine on Kagi – the right answers, over and over again.

That was before I started playing with Kagi's lenses and other bells and whistles, which elevated the search experience from "magic" to sorcerous.

The catch is that Kagi costs money – after 100 queries, they want you to cough up $10/month ($14 for a couple or $20 for a family with up to six accounts, and some kid-specific features):

https://kagi.com/settings?p=billing_plan&plan=family

I immediately bought a family plan. I've been using it for a month. I've basically stopped using Google search altogether.

Kagi just let me get a lot more done, and I assumed that they were some kind of wildly capitalized startup that was running their own crawl and and their own data-centers. But this morning, I read Jason Koebler's 404 Media report on his own experiences using it:

https://www.404media.co/friendship-ended-with-google-now-kagi-is-my-best-friend/

Koebler's piece contained a key detail that I'd somehow missed:

When you search on Kagi, the service makes a series of “anonymized API calls to traditional search indexes like Google, Yandex, Mojeek, and Brave,” as well as a handful of other specialized search engines, Wikimedia Commons, Flickr, etc. Kagi then combines this with its own web index and news index (for news searches) to build the results pages that you see. So, essentially, you are getting some mix of Google search results combined with results from other indexes.

In other words: Kagi is a heavily customized, anonymized front-end to Google.

The implications of this are stunning. It means that Google's enshittified search-results are a choice. Those ad-strewn, sub-Altavista, spam-drowned search pages are a feature, not a bug. Google prefers those results to Kagi, because Google makes more money out of shit than they would out of delivering a good product:

https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/2/24117976/best-printer-2024-home-use-office-use-labels-school-homework

No wonder Google spends a whole-ass Twitter every year to make sure you never try a rival search engine. Bottom line: they ran the numbers and figured out their most profitable course of action is to enshittify their flagship product and bribe their "competitors" like Apple and Samsung so that you never try another search engine and have another one of those magic moments that sent all those Jeeves-askin' Yahooers to Google a quarter-century ago.

One of my favorite TV comedy bits is Lily Tomlin as Ernestine the AT&T operator; Tomlin would do these pitches for the Bell System and end every ad with "We don't care. We don't have to. We're the phone company":

https://snltranscripts.jt.org/76/76aphonecompany.phtml

Speaking of TV comedy: this week saw FTC chair Lina Khan appear on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. It was amazing:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaDTiWaYfcM

The coverage of Khan's appearance has focused on Stewart's revelation that when he was doing a show on Apple TV, the company prohibited him from interviewing her (presumably because of her hostility to tech monopolies):

https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/apple-got-caught-censoring-its-own

But for me, the big moment came when Khan described tech monopolists as "too big to care."

What a phrase!

Since the subprime crisis, we're all familiar with businesses being "too big to fail" and "too big to jail." But "too big to care?" Oof, that got me right in the feels.

Because that's what it feels like to use enshittified Google. That's what it feels like to discover that Kagi – the good search engine – is mostly Google with the weights adjusted to serve users, not shareholders.

Google used to care. They cared because they were worried about competitors and regulators. They cared because their workers made them care:

https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2019/4/4/18295933/google-cancels-ai-ethics-board

Google doesn't care anymore. They don't have to. They're the search company.

Top investors in space in India

Why Venture Capitalists Are Betting Big on India’s Space Sector

A Thriving Ecosystem of Space Startups: India’s space ecosystem is no longer limited to government-run entities like the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Today, a surge of innovative space startups are taking the stage, offering cutting-edge solutions in satellite technology, launch services, space data analytics, and more.

These partnerships have also strengthened investor confidence, as they reduce risks and validate the technology being developed by Indian companies. For investors in space in India, such collaborations signal a promising future, driving more venture capital into the sector.

A New Era of Commercial Space Exploration: The idea of commercial space exploration, once confined to science fiction, is now becoming a reality. From reusable rockets to satellite constellations, Indian space startups are exploring new frontiers that were once considered out of reach. This new era of commercial space exploration has piqued the interest of venture capitalists who see the potential for profitable exits through IPOs, acquisitions, and global partnerships. With private space missions no longer just a dream, space venture capital in India is ready to fuel the next big leap.

Encouraging Signs from Successful Fundraising Rounds: The confidence in India’s space sector is evident from the successful fundraising rounds by leading space startups. Companies like Skyroot Aerospace and Agnikul Cosmos have secured millions in funding from top-tier venture capital firms. These funding rounds not only provide the necessary resources for scaling but also act as a signal to other investors that the Indian space market is mature and ready for high-stakes investment. The momentum created by these early successes is a clear indicator of why investors in space in India are increasingly willing to place their bets.

Conclusion: A Promising Orbit for Investment India’s space sector is on an exciting trajectory. With a favorable policy environment, a surge of innovative startups, and a proven track record of cost-effective solutions, it’s no wonder that space venture capital in India is booming.

Excerpt from this story from Anthropocene Magazine:

I write about the climate and energy for a living and even I can’t quite wrap my head around how cheap low-carbon power technologies have gotten. The cost of onshore wind energy has dropped by 70% over just the last decade, and that of batteries and solar photovoltaic by a staggering 90%. Our World in Data points out that within a generation, solar power has gone from being one of the most expensive electricity sources to the cheapest in many countries—and it’s showing little signs of slowing down.

So where does this all end?

Back in the 1960s, the nuclear industry promised a future in which electricity was too cheap to meter. Decades later, the same vision seems to be on the horizon again, this time from solar. It seems, well, fantastic. Perhaps (almost) free renewable power leads to climate utopia. Then again, should we be careful what we wish for?

The Road To Decarbonization Is Paved With Cheap Green Power

1. More renewables = less carbon. The math isn’t complicated. The faster we transition to clean energy, the less carbon dioxide we’re adding to the atmosphere and the fewer effects of global warming we will suffer.While humanity is still emitting more greenhouse gases than ever, the carbon intensity of electricity production has been dropping for well over a decade.

2. Cheap, clean power also unlocks humanitarian goals. Modern civilization rests on a foundation of electricity. Beyond its obvious uses in heating, cooling, cooking, lighting and data, electricity can decarbonize transportation, construction, services, water purification, and food production. Increasing the supply and reducing the cost of green electricity doesn’t just help the climate, it improves equity and quality of life for the world’s poorest.

3. Scrubbing the skies will take a lot of juice. Once we get emissions under control, it’s time to tackle the mess we’ve made of the atmosphere. Today’s direct air capture (DAC) systems use about two megawatt hours of electricity for every ton of CO2 plucked from fresh air. Scale that up to the 7 to 9 million tons we need to be removing annually in the US by 2030, according to the World Resources Institute, and you’re looking at about 0.5% of the country’s current energy generation. Scale it again to the nearly 1,000 billion tons the IPCC wants to sequester during the 21st century, and we’ll need every kilowatt of solar power available—the cheaper the better.

Cheap Power Has Hidden Costs

1. Cheap technology doesn’t always mean cheap power. If solar cells are so damn cheap, why do electricity bills keep rising? One problem is that renewables are still just a fraction of the energy mix in most places, about 20% in the US and 30% globally. This recent report from think-tank Energy Innovation identifies volatility in natural gas costs and investments in uneconomic coal plants as big drivers for prices at the meter. Renewables will have to dominate the energy mix before retail prices can fall. 

2. The cheaper the power, the more we’ll waste. Two cases in point: cryptocurrency mining and AI chat bots. Unless we make tough social and political decisions to fairly price carbon and promote climate action, the market will find its own uses for all the cheap green power we can generate. And they may not advance our climate goals one inch.

3. Centuries of petro-history to overcome. Cheap power alone can only get us so far. Even with EVs challenging gas cars, and heat pumps now outselling gas furnaces in the US, there is a monumental legacy of fossil fuel systems to dismantle. Getting 1.5 billion gas cars off the world’s roads will take generations, and such changes can have  enormous social costs. To help smooth the transition, the Center for American Progress suggests replacing annual revenue-sharing payments from coal, oil, and natural gas production with stable, permanent distributions for mining and oil communities, funded by federal oil and gas revenue payments.

Healthcare Market Research: Why Does It Matter? 

Healthcare market research (MR) providers interact with several stakeholders to discover and learn about in-demand treatment strategies and patients’ requirements. Their insightful reports empower medical professionals, insurance companies, and pharma businesses to engage with patients in more fulfilling ways. This post will elaborate on the growing importance of healthcare market research. 

What is Healthcare Market Research? 

Market research describes consumer and competitor behaviors using first-hand or public data collection methods, like surveys and web scraping. In medicine and life sciences, clinicians and accessibility device developers can leverage it to improve patient outcomes. They grow faster by enhancing their approaches as validated MR reports recommend. 

Finding key opinion leaders (KOL), predicting demand dynamics, or evaluating brand recognition efforts becomes more manageable thanks to domain-relevant healthcare market research consulting. Although primary MR helps with authority-building, monitoring how others in the target field innovate their business models is also essential. So, global health and life science enterprises value secondary market research as much as primary data-gathering procedures. 

The Importance of Modern Healthcare Market Research 

1| Learning What Competitors Might Do Next 

Businesses must beware of market share fluctuations due to competitors’ expansion strategies. If your clients are more likely to seek help from rival brands, this situation suggests failure to compete. 

Companies might provide fitness products, over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, or childcare facilities. However, they will always lose to a competitor who can satisfy the stakeholders’ demands more efficiently. These developments evolve over the years, during which you can study and estimate business rivals’ future vision. 

You want to track competing businesses’ press releases, public announcements, new product launches, and marketing efforts. You must also analyze their quarter-on-quarter market performance. If the data processing scope exceeds your tech capabilities, consider using healthcare data management services offering competitive intelligence integrations. 

2| Understanding Patients and Their Needs for Unique Treatment  

Patients can experience unwanted bodily changes upon consuming a medicine improperly. Otherwise, they might struggle to use your accessibility technology. If healthcare providers implement a user-friendly feedback and complaint collection system, they can reduce delays. As a result, patients will find a cure for their discomfort more efficiently. 

However, processing descriptive responses through manual means is no longer necessary. Most market research teams have embraced automated unstructured data processing breakthroughs. They can guess a customer’s emotions and intentions from submitted texts without frequent human intervention. This era of machine learning (ML) offers ample opportunities to train ML systems to sort patients’ responses quickly. 

So, life science companies can increase their employees’ productivity if their healthcare market research providers support ML-based feedback sorting and automation strategies. 

Besides, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and animal care facilities can incorporate virtual or physical robots powered by conversational artificial intelligence (AI). Doing so is one of the potential approaches to addressing certain patients’ loneliness problems throughout hospitalization. Utilize MR to ask your stakeholders whether such integrations improve their living standards. 

3| Improving Marketing and Sales 

Healthcare market research aids pharma and biotechnology corporations to categorize customer preferences according to their impact on sales. It also reveals how brands can appeal to more people when introducing a new product or service. One approach is to shut down or downscale poorly performing ideas. 

If a healthcare facility can reduce resources spent on underperforming promotions, it can redirect them to more engaging campaigns. Likewise, MR specialists let patients and doctors directly communicate their misgivings about such a medicine or treatment via online channels. The scale of these surveys can extend to national, continental, or global markets. It is more accessible as cloud platforms flexibly adjust the resources a market research project may need. 

With consistent communication involving doctors, patients, equipment vendors, and pharmaceutical brands, the healthcare industry will be more accountable. It will thrive sustainably. 

Healthcare Market Research: Is It Ethical? 

Market researchers in healthcare and life sciences will rely more on data-led planning as competition increases and customers demand richer experiences like telemedicine. Remember, it is not surprising how awareness regarding healthcare infrastructure has skyrocketed since 2020. At the same time, life science companies must proceed with caution when handling sensitive data in a patient’s clinical history. 

On one hand, universities and private research projects need more healthcare data. Meanwhile, threats of clinical record misuse are real, having irreparable financial and psychological damage potential. 

Ideally, hospitals, laboratories, and pharmaceutical firms must inform patients about the use of health records for research or treatment intervention. Today, reputed data providers often conduct MR surveys, use focus groups, and scan scholarly research publications. They want to respect patients’ choice in who gets to store, modify, and share the data. 

Best Practices for Healthcare Market Research Projects 

Legal requirements affecting healthcare data analysis, market research, finance, and ethics vary worldwide. Your data providers must recognize and respect this reality. Otherwise, gathering, storing, analyzing, sharing, or deleting a patient’s clinical records can increase legal risks. 

Even if a healthcare business has no malicious intention behind extracting insights, cybercriminals can steal healthcare data. Therefore, invest in robust IT infrastructure, partner with experts, and prioritize data governance. 

Like customer-centricity in commercial market research applications, dedicate your design philosophy to patient-centricity. 

Incorporating health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) will depend on real-world evidence (RWE). Therefore, protect data integrity and increase quality management standards. If required, find automated data validation assistance and develop or rent big data facilities. 

Capture data on present industry trends while maintaining a grasp on long-term objectives. After all, a lot of data is excellent for accuracy, but relevance is the backbone of analytical excellence and business focus. 

Conclusion 

Given this situation, transparency is the key to protecting stakeholder faith in healthcare data management. As such, MR consultants must act accordingly. Healthcare market research is not unethical. Yet, this statement stays valid only if a standardized framework specifies when patients’ consent trumps medical researchers’ data requirements. Healthcare market research is not unethical. Yet, this statement stays valid only if a standardized framework specifies when patients’ consent trumps medical researchers’ data requirements. 

Market research techniques can help fix the long-standing communication and ethics issues in doctor-patient relationships if appropriately configured, highlighting their importance in the healthcare industry’s progress. When patients willingly cooperate with MR specialists, identifying recovery challenges or clinical devices’ ergonomic failures is quick. No wonder that health and life sciences organizations want to optimize their offerings by using market research.

AppleTV is included in the streaming services analyzed by Nielsen. TCR did not make the overall Nielsen streaming charts or the Nielsen original streaming charts in any week during its run. The only Apple shows that have made it in Nielsen are Ted Lasso and movies like Killers of the Flower Moon. Masters of the Air is expected to make it too. Apple has a relatively small market share among streaming services so it's hard for their shows to chart. But Apple still offered TCR to Tom after Cherry, so they saw good value in him

https://www.nielsen.com/data-center/top-ten/

Thanks Anon. I've never heard of this study. But it's not surprising that a lot of AppleTV shows don't make this list. AppleTV seems to do the bare minimum anyway when it comes to promoting their work/films lol.

I don't think it's far-fetched to assume that most machine-learning-enabled services will decrease in popularity from corporations within the next few years, and I believe that because machine learning data centers currently require large amounts of money to maintain due to electricity and hardware requirements, and services currently offered by companies like OpenAI are currently at, I believe, deeply discounted rates in order to soak up market share. OpenAI is currently governed by a nonprofit agreement according to their website, but given how most people believe that "AI" will affect our lives for generations to come, there is potential for a merger or a buyout from other companies that will seek to turn a real profit from the technology. Which will mean they do the same thing as Uber and Lyft and AirBNB and Walmart and Dollar General before them: undercut the price of competitors, soak up market share, consume the opposition, and then raise prices to finally turn a profit once they have a monopoly and people don't have anywhere else to go for the same services. Remember when you could call a taxi company to pick you up from your house?

Introduction to Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)

Overview of REITs

An organization that owns, manages, or finances real estate that generates revenue is known as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. Like mutual funds, REITs offer an investment opportunity that enables regular Americans, not just Wall Street, banks, and hedge funds, to profit from valuable real estate.  It gives investors access to total returns and dividend-based income, and supports the expansion, thriving, and revitalization of local communities.

Anyone can engage in real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the same manner as they can invest in other industries: by buying individual firm shares, through exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or mutual funds. A REIT’s investors receive a portion of the revenue generated without really having to purchase, operate, or finance real estate. Families with 401(k), IRAs, pension plans, and other investment accounts invested in REITs that comprise about 150 million Americans.

Historical Evolution

1960s - REITs were created

When President Eisenhower passes the REIT Act title found in the 1960 Cigar Excise Tax Extension into law, REITs are established. Congress established REITs to provide a means for all investors to participate in sizable, diversified portfolios of real estate that generate income.

1970s - REITs around the world

In 1969 The Netherlands passes the first piece of European REIT legislation. This is when the real estate investment trusts model started to spread over the world; shortly after, in 1971, listed property trusts were introduced in Australia.

1980s - Competing for capital

1980s saw real estate tax-sheltered partnerships expanding at this time, raising billions of dollars through private placements. Because they were and are set up in a way that prevents tax losses from being "passed through" to REIT shareholders, REITs struggle to compete for capital.

1990s - First REIT reaches $1 billion market cap

In December 1991 the New Plan achieves $1 billion in equity market capitalization, becoming the first publicly traded REIT to do so. Centro Properties Group, based in Australia, purchased New Plan in 2007.

2000s - REITs modernization act

President Clinton signed the REIT Modernization Act of 1999's provisions into law in December 1999 as part of the Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999. The capacity of a REIT to establish one or more taxable real estate investment trusts subsidiaries (TRS) that can provide services to third parties and REIT tenants is one of the other things.

The diverse landscape of REIT investments

Real estate investing is a dynamic field with a wide range of options for those wishing to build wealth and diversify their holdings.

Residential REITs: This is an easy way for novices to get started in real estate investing, as single-family houses offer a strong basis. Purchasing duplexes or apartment buildings can result in steady rental income as well as possible capital growth.

Commercial REITs: This covers activities such as office building investments. They provide steady cash flow and long-term leases, especially in desirable business areas. Rental assets such as shopping centers and retail spaces are lucrative prospects and can appreciate value as long as businesses remain successful.

Specialty REITs: These include investments in healthcare-related properties such as assisted living centers or physician offices. Datacenter investments have become more and more common in the digital age because of the growing need for safe data storage.

Job profiles within REITs

Real estate investment jobs have many specifications, including:

Real estate analysts: The job of a real estate analyst is to find chances for purchasing profitable real estate. These analysts will require a strong skill set in financial modeling in addition to a solid understanding of the current markets. These analysts could also be involved in the negotiation of terms related to pricing and real estate transactions.

Asset managers: Opportunities in property trusts are plenty. The higher-level property management choices are made by asset managers. Since asset managers will be evaluating and controlling a property's operating expenses about its potential for income generation, they must possess a greater foundation in finance.

Property managers: REIT employment prospects include property managers. While some real estate investment trusts employ their property managers, others contract with outside businesses to handle their properties. Along with working with renters, property managers handle all daily duties required to keep up the property. 

Essential skills for success in REIT careers

Successful REIT careers require the development of several essential talents, three of which are listed below:

Financial acumen: Jobs in real estate finance involve investors with strong financial acumen who are better equipped to evaluate financing choices, cash flow forecasts, property valuations, and tax consequences. With this thorough insight, investors may make well-informed strategic decisions that optimize profits while also supporting their investing goals.

Market analysis skills: Real estate investors should cultivate an awareness of important market indicators and a keen sense of market conditions. Purchasing and managing profitable rental properties requires an accurate and detailed understanding of a possible market's amenities, dynamics, future potential, and relative risk.

Communication skills: Are a common attribute among successful real estate investors and are often ranked as the most important one. This is because effective interpersonal communication is crucial when investing in real estate. Working directly with a variety of industry professionals, including lenders, agents, property managers, tenants, and many more.

Global perspectives on REITs

International REIT Markets:

The US-based REIT method for real estate investing has been embraced by more than 40 nations and regions, providing access to income-producing real estate assets worldwide for all investors. The simplest and most effective approach for investors to include global listed real estate allocations in their portfolios is through mutual funds and exchange-traded funds.

The listed real estate market is getting more and more international, even if the United States still has the largest market. The allure of the US real estate investment trusts strategy for real estate investing is fueling the expansion. All G7 nations are among the more than forty nations and regions that have REITs today.

Technological innovations in REIT operations

PropTech integration: Real estate investment managers can improve the efficiency of property acquisitions and due diligence procedures, which can lead to more precise assessments, quicker data processing, and better decision-making, all of which improve investment outcomes, by incorporating these PropTech platforms into their workflows.

Data analytics in real estate: Data analytics in real estate enables real estate professionals to make data-driven choices regarding the acquisition, purchase, leasing, or administration of a physical asset. To provide insights that can be put into practice, the process entails compiling all pertinent data from several sources and analyzing it.

Conclusion

REITs have a lot of advantages and disadvantages for professional development. They provide a means of incorporating real estate into an investment portfolio, but they could also produce a bigger dividend than certain other options. Since non-exchange-listed REITs do not trade on stock exchanges, there are certain risks associated with them. Finding the value of a share in a non-traded real estate investment trusts can be challenging, even though the market price of a publicly traded REIT is easily available. Buying shares through a broker allows you to invest in a publicly traded REIT that is listed on a major stock exchange. The bottom line for a REIT is that, in contrast to other real estate firms, it doesn't build properties to resell them.

Meta Unveils Centralized Ad Targeting and Data Privacy Controls for Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger

Introduction

This blog covers the importance of centralized data and social media advertising controls for advertisers, partners, and users. You’ll read about Facebook, IG, and Messenger data privacy and the role of platforms as ad blockers. As the Best Digital Marketing Company in Pune, we explain what a centralized system is, its benefits and risks, and how you can run one yourself or partner with an organization that has an operations center to provide remote maintenance services.

 What is a Centralized Data Structure?

A centralized data structure is software that stores data, including brands and products, on a server that you control. The data is organized into categories, each containing customer, product, or service information. Examples include an inventory management system for food and beverage businesses, an app data structure with user information for mobile apps, and an e-commerce product data structure with product details such as sales and price data.

Benefits of Centralized Data for Ads and Partners

Most of the benefits of a centralized data structure can be attributed to multiple factors, including reduced data management and an overall increase in transparency for all parties involved. 

- In a centralized data structure, all your data is organized and controlled by a single system. The data is then accessible via a central server that anyone with access to the Internet can access. 

- Centralized data storage solves many problems that traditional data storage systems cannot: - It provides granularity, which means you can assign a value of 0 to one and have it remain visible to all parties in the ad and marketing systems. 

- It is data-driven, meaning you can assign a low value to one event and see the full data across multiple ad pages. 

- It provides security since each record is encrypted with a key. This prevents anyone from accessing the data without a key and also helps prevent cross-referencing between records. 

- It provides transparency since each record is easily viewable by anyone with access to the Internet.

Risks of Virtual & Augmented Reality Ads

While centralized data can be a good thing in certain situations, it’s important to keep these bottom-line risks in mind: - Augmented reality ads are almost never fully transparent. The user first sees the ads in the form of VR/AR images. They are then augmented with voice-driven advertising that could be heard through a speaker or a web browser. - For the advertiser, the ads are often located in a remote location, which increases the risk of going viral. If people start sharing their ads online, the advertiser could be exposed to lawsuits or other such situations. - For the partner, the centralized data structure could be used to store sensitive information, like health and safety information and product information. That could contain a name, address, and other identification information.

Conclusion

 The biggest risk that investors can take with virtual and augmented reality ads is that they could spark a breach of data security. That could jeopardize the integrity of your brand and end in lost revenue. You can rest a little bit easier knowing that your data is safe and secure in the cloud.
