"The Conscious Investor" is presented by Nuveen.
Martin Kremenstein, head of retirement and ETF solutions at Nuveen, explains how ESG metrics serve as an indicator of quality and can be used as a risk management tool.
According to research from MSCI, companies in the bottom ESG quintile have been twice as likely to suffer a catastrophic loss (over 95% cumulative loss) within three years.
MSCI downgraded Equifax to the lowest ESG rating on cybersecurity concerns a year before the data breach was announced.
Kremenstein says that Facebook was excluded from Nuveen's NuShares ESG Large-Cap Growth ETF from the time it launched in December 2016. He explains, "it scored relatively poorly, compared to other tech companies over data privacy concerns."

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Fact: the BTC community is stunned yet by the changes (a very strong correction), some say because of Musk Tweets, many knowing it's because it was time for a correction and Elon was just the accidental spark. There is probably a deeper issue here, maybe the fact that crypto as it is now it's more a speculation market than any other thing, or the energy use discourse. Narratives, and no Tweets, move the world.

In India, some COVID-19 patients are developing a rare, but dangerous infection - dubbed "black fungus" or mucormycosis. Typically starting in the airways, it spreads through the body, affecting the sinuses or lungs. Then bones and body tissue. The fungus can also attack the eyes and brain. If left untreated, it can be fatal.
It's important to note that black fungus is extremely rare. In India, it normally affects around 900,000 people a year, according to one study. That's less than one percent of the population.
But now big hospitals are reportedly diagnosing it in patients every second day in this ongoing second coronavirus wave. COVID-19 patients are especially at risk, because their immune system is weakened. And that may be contributing to the rise in cases of black fungus in India.

Sixta works as a house cleaner. Before the pandemic hit, she had four clients; now she has just one. To pay her room rental of $600 a month, she collects bottles every day. Alcohol claimed the life of Sixta's youngest son during the pandemic.
Sixta is an undocumented immigrant from Mexico who has lived in New York for 34 years. Long ago she and her husband parted ways, leaving Sixta to raise five children on her own here. She collects bottles to get by, though recently she’s earned even less than usual, because she went on a hunger strike for two weeks. Together with other activists, Sixta is calling on the US government to help needy, undocumented immigrants like herself. Aid organization Feeding America estimates that some 50 million people in the US suffer from food insecurity due to the pandemic. In his report, Bastian Hartig documents the growing gap between the rich and the poor in New York.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Interesting debate, but we think it's too early to really see what is going to happen with tourism. Too many words about passports for everything, restrictions, the dismissal of mass tourism, etc. Even if numbers will get better (of course as border restrictions will mostly finish soon or later) tourists will ask for safety and more personal experience, with different rules in times of uncertainty.

Mixing human + animal DNA and the future of gene editing
Watch the newest video from Big Think: https://bigth.ink/NewVideo
Learn skills from the world's top minds at Big Think Edge: https://bigth.ink/Edge
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the material that makes all living things what/who we are, DNA is the key to understanding and changing the world. British geneticist Bryan Sykes and Francis Collins, director of the Human Genome Project, explain how, through gene editing, scientists can better treat illnesses, eradicate diseases, and revolutionize personalized medicine.
But existing and developing gene editing technologies are not without controversies. A major point of debate deals with the idea that gene editing is overstepping natural and ethical boundaries. Just because they can, does that mean that scientists should edit DNA?
Harvard professor Glenn Cohen introduces another subcategory of gene experiments: mixing human and animal DNA. "The question is which are okay, which are not okay, why can we generate some principles," Cohen says of human-animal chimeras and arguments concerning improving human life versus morality.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSCRIPT:
0:00 Intro
0:41 Bryan Sykes, What We Need to Know About Genes
3:24 Francis Collins, Linking Genes to Disease
8:39 Glenn Cohen, Crossing Human Genes With Animals
BRYAN SYKES: Genetics and DNA does get to the central issue of what makes us tick. It's perhaps too determinist to say that your genes determine everything you do. They don't, but, if you like, it's like the deck of cards that you're dealt at birth. What you do with that deck, like any card game, depends a lot on your choices, but it is influenced by those cards, those genes that you got when you were born.
What I've enjoyed about genetics is looking to see what it tells us about where we've come from because those pieces of DNA, they came from somewhere. They weren't just sort of plucked out of the air. They came from ancestors. And it's a very good way of finding out about your ancestors, not only who they are, but just imagining their lives. You're made up of DNA from thousands and millions of ancestors who've lived in the past, most of them now dead, but they've survived, they've got through, they've passed their DNA onto their children, and it's come down to you. It doesn't matter who you are. You could be the President. You could be the Prime Minister. You could be the head of a big corporation. You could be a taxi driver. You could be someone who lives on the street. But the same is true of everybody. I can see a time, long after I've gone but when, in fact, everyone will know their relationship to everybody else. It is possible, if anybody wants to do it or can afford it, you could actually, I think, draw the family tree of the entire world by linking up the segments of DNA. So you could find out in what way everyone was related to everybody else.
No doubt, most of the funding for the advances in genetics, for example, the complete sequencing of the human genome, has come from ambition to learn more about health issues. The technology for exploring that, which is making leaps and bounds, has come through the healthcare benefits. Those are the two main things that people are learning about themselves and who they're related to, where they've come from. And that does, and I know from experience, that does add a lot to people's sense of identity. It's not for everybody, not everyone's very interested in it, but a lot of people are and I think that's a very good thing.
FRANCIS COLLINS: It's too bad that you can't actually see DNA easily under a microscope and scan across the double-helix and read out of the sequence of bases that amounts to the information content because it would be easier, I think, to explain then how a geneticist goes about tracking down the molecular bases of a disease at the DNA level. Our methods are indirect. They're very powerful, they're very highly accurate, but they're not as visual as you might like. We do have methods though now that allow you to read out with high accuracy all 3 billion of the letters of the DNA instruction book. Those letters are actually these chemical bases. The chemical language of DNA is a simple one. There's only four letters in the alphabet. Those bases that we abbreviate, A, C, G, and T. And we have methods of being able to compare then the DNA sequence of people who have a disease versus people who don't and look for the critical differences in order to nail down something that might be the cause. Well, since, however, we all differ in our DNA sequence by about a half of 1%, you wouldn't get very far if you basically...

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Not everything that can be done should be done. Gene therapy is good. Playing with genes to create chimeras is starting to appear possible, but is it morally acceptable? Do we really understand all the intricacies of DNA? Probably we are just starting to face the fact we are only glimpsing the reality behind the veil.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Crypto's crazy week indeed. And we all have an opinion about it. From those dismissing Musk's opinions, complaining about being an influencer who has made a big mistake, to those who claim he is the best thing has happened after slice bread. Vitalik continues to execute his program for Ethereum which has long term consequences. Anyway anything can happen with Doge, Bitcoin, Binance's woes and even Tether.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Humans love conspiracy theories. Some of them can even be true. The Pandemic,with a plethora of real and fake news, mixed with social, economic and also political issues, has created the grounds for many debates. We don't know what happened. But this is a warning from nature. The next war is going to be digital, but also could be biological.

He is not selling his BTC, by the way. Maybe a marketing strategy, maybe something deeper, it's early to judge. If BTC continues going down, this could be a different story.

The Asian crypto industry reacts to the US Department of Justice and Internal Revenue Service money laundering probe into Binance. In South Korea, the nation’s largest internet company plans to join Bank of Korea’s CBDC ventures. Over in Singapore, Southeast Asia’s largest lender DBS Bank expands its crypto services for its private bank clients by launching a crypto trust solution. More on that story and other news shaping the cryptocurrency and blockchain world in this episode of "The Daily Forkast."-
Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Binance has opened its own Pandora Box, with bad IRS and even Germany regulatory authorities news. Binance has never been friend of complying with regulations, speaking about a digital economy where decentralisation doesn't need old type of regulations. In the meantime banks start to realise their need to transform and accept digital economy as a fact beyond being offering internet services. This can easily start in places like Singapore or South Korea.
