Microsoft to erase its entire carbon footprint by 2050
(SOUNDBITE) (ENGLISH) MICROSOFT CEO SATYA NADELLA SAYING: "We're announcing an ambitious new plan to help address the sustainability of our planet." Microsoft has thrown down the gauntlet on climate change. The world's largest software company on Thursday pledged that by 2050 it will have removed from the atmosphere the entire amount of carbon the company has emitted since it was founded in 1975. The first step to getting there, said CEO Satya Nadella, is by going "carbon negative" - removing more carbon than it currently emits, which he said the company will achieve in ten years. (SOUNDBITE) (ENGLISH) MICROSOFT CEO SATYA NADELLA SAYING: "This is THE decade for urgent action - for Microsoft and for all of us." To achieve its ambitious goals, the tech giant said it has created a "Climate Innovation Fund," which will invest $1 billion over the next four years to speed up the development of carbon removal technology. Co-founder Bill Gates was an early backer of Canadian-based Carbon Engineering, one of a handful of companies developing direct air capture technology. The announcement is the latest in a flurry of corporate climate goals unveiled since President Trump announced in 2017 his decision to pull the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement, a global pact to fight climate change. But many companies have still faced criticism from their employees for doing too little. Amazon last year pledged to be "net carbon zero" by 2040 and to buy 100,000 electric delivery vans after employees pushed the online retailer to take a tougher stance. Microsoft on Thursday also said that it will be powered 100 percent by renewable energy sources in five years.

The 1MDB scandal: what does it mean for Goldman Sachs?

Is Market Breadth So Good That’s Its Bad?
Is it possible that market breadth is so good that it's bad? Absolutely! It's called being overbought from an internal standpoint -- and sometimes leads to a quick and dirty reset to the downside. But we also can rephrase this. "Is it possible that market breadth is so bad, that it's good?" Certainly! It's called a washout -- and usually is associated with an intermediate- to longer-term bottom. In a bull market, we'll take strong market-breadth statistics over not so strong any day. What's giving us pause is that the largest sector, Technology, is again leading in early 2020 and is about as extended internally as it can get.
