  • Bryce Elder’s list also pointed readers to reporting on money laundering through UK post offices, a cultural essay on Raising Cane’s and a piece questioning the appeal of a “slow life.”
  • The item was published as a curated Alphaville digest rather than a reported market update, extending FTAV’s regular role of surfacing outside analysis and offbeat reads for its audience.
