10 things in tech you need to know today 1. Alphabet CEO Larry Page has secretly spent $100 million (£69 million) building flying cars. A new report by Bloomberg revealed that Page secretly funded two flying car startups: Zee.Aero and Kitty Hawk. 2. Some bids for Yahoo are topping $5 billion (£3.4 billion.) The final round of bidding for Yahoo is expected to end by the middle of July. 3. Tom Perkins, the founding partner of legendary Silicon Valley VC firm Kleiner Perkins, has died at 84. Perkins died on Tuesday night after a prolonged illness. 4. Snapchat is hiring people who have experience in building hardware products. A source familiar with the matter tells Business Insider that the company is "serious" about making a hardware play. 5. 4Chan cofounder Chris Poole actually joined Google to work on an in-house startup incubator. It's a formalized version of Google's famous "20% time." 6. Tencent is reportedly in talks to buy the company behind "Clash of Clans" at a $9 billion (£6.2 billion) valuation. It wants to buy SoftBank's stake in the company. 7. Andreessen Horowitz invested $5.5 million (£3.8 million) in a startup that's developing tests to detect the early signs of cancer. Freenome was started two years ago. 8. Uber's CEO says he's leaving it "as late as humanly possible" to go public. Travis Kalanick says he's going to wait until the day before people turn up at the Uber office with pitchforks. 9. Apple has again accidentally leaked the potential new name of its desktop operating system. It referred to it as "macOS" in a post on its website. 10. A thief stole $16,000 (£11,000) worth of iPhones from an Apple Store by dressing as an employee. He took 19 iPhones. www.businessinsider.com/10-things-in-tech-you-need-to-know-today-june-10-2016-6 |

Haven't had a great one yet. Plants are only 30-36" high and only throwing blossoms now it'll be awhile for BLTs Novi. I sent you an e-mail earlier this week on CNL did you get it? |

Boy this market moves slow anymore. I'm expecting (hoping for) a little pullback now in market (1-2% in SPX, currently 2117.50), and confirmation would be if VXX >13.01, but waiting for anything to happen in this market lately is like getting teeth pulled. BBL & BOL all No one here got caught by this pullback, did they? And I don't think it's done quite yet. Feels odd being bearish here. With the exception of pullbacks for bullish backtests, this is the first time I've been bearish since the bottom in mid-Feb. |

Bought another tiny bit of UXVY...hasn't worked for me since that Feb. low. I'd be careful as we all know this will continue to erode.............if you time it right you are golden...........If I only did what I always said I wanted to do and sell some short and leave it alone.....................would have made a nice chunk of change...........going back 5 years it was only 375,000 and change with all the splits..................LOL.. |

Bought another tiny bit of UXVY...hasn't worked for me since that Feb. low. I believe this pullback will be short lived. Selling UVXY when (and if) VXX is in the 15.60's would probably be a good move (that could get UVXY to 14.40-14.50 in a best case scenario) |

Already above them. S&P down 1.6% in a few days yet VXX up 25% and UVXY up 55%! Wow, what an outperformance. I've never seen these things move like this, not for such a small pullback in the market. |

It's for sure I just lucked out, certainly didn't foresee that wild move. And if they don't vote for Brexit, markets will probably go ballistic to the upside! |
