- Niemann won his qualifier but did not play in knockouts (they were at the beginning of october, so I presume he was removed due to the cheating scandals).
- Magnus did not play (he represents chess24, which is chess.com’s rival). They don’t cover CGC on the usual chess24 list of events.

- Looked at some ITM/OTM options.
- During a merger/acquisition, some shareholders may choose to roll their equity over to the new company, rather than being bought out. They may do this because they feel the equity will increase over the current price point, to do the acquirer a favor (means the acq costs less), etc. This usually only happens for priority shareholders, not the avg employee.
- Mobius was not connecting to my G6. Power-cycled to fix. You can do this with just a couple clicks on the apex app.
- Trivia at Amity hall in greenwich, then saw Chapelle + Chris Rock + Louis CK outside the comedy cellar.
