NIH has been ordered to pursue “new grant management policies” to increase
the number of new grants by 7%.
NSF is likewise cutting back on some $66 million in lower-priority education

NASA is being obliged to make drastic cuts to its Mars exploration programme
so as to finish building its flagship James Webb Space Telescope.

This is typically the highest teaching load you will find at a college or

They track the indices simply based on some wrong (and stupid) math. They

Suppose the return % for a day is r. The 3X long funds, instead of tracking
(1+r)^3, are actually implemented to track (1+3*r). Likewise, for the 3X

这个所谓的联系在逻辑上是站不住脚的。我还可以说:

龙年嘛,龙的子孙当然应该沾光了。我这个推断和80-20所说的,在逻辑上不分彼
