eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
None are listed yet. Give us a little time, it’s only Day One
eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
Companies can dual-list so LTSE does not need to be the primary venue

Stock exchanges have the obligation to set standards for the behavior of managers and investors. It’s this dual-stakeholder role that uniquely allows our reforms to take hold.

Believe me, I looked long and hard for an easier way to get this done

eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
The listings process is highly regulated and any conversations of this type would be confidential, so I can’t answer this one
eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
We will endeavor not to list such companies
eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
Yes all of our listing standards are publicly available both on our website and in numerous legal filing

Yes, we believe in the role of long-term shareholders in corporate governance

Tell me about it...
eries··on The Long-Term Stock Exchange Opens for Business
Yes, you can do both. Trades happen through stock brokers as with any other exchange. You can track the exchange’s daily trading volume here: https://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/market_share/

The listing application (and attendant legal docs) is here: https://longtermstockexchange.com/listings/documents/

Thank you!

We require companies that list with us to adopt corporate governance that aligns their behavior and incentives to the long term.

I know that doesn’t sound super sexy but we believe this is a high-leverage point for reforms

We will have more to say on reforms that relate to reading in the future, but we don’t limit the ability of “tourists” to trade in and out of stocks as normal.

Hey everyone, Eric Ries here. Happy to answer questions if you’d like to learn more about what we are building at LTSE

Impressive idea - best of luck with it

eries··on Ask HN: Parents, what are you doing for school this fall?
I'm another +1 for Modulo.app, our 6yo is really enjoying "Kids Club" as well as a number of zoom classes. We sometimes supplement with outschool too, but at this point we have built up a nice roster of instructors who work 1:1 over zoom.

It doesn't seem likely to me that schools will be able to safely reopen in the US anytime soon, so I'd encourage everyone to take a look at the emerging startups appearing in this area, like Prenda, Primer, Dexter [full disclosure, I'm an investor]

eries··on Americans, it turns out, would rather visit a store than buy food online
A lot of the issues being reported in this thread are thoroughly solved by Good Eggs. They’ve been much better for us during the pandemic, although obviously under heavy load
eries··on Ask HN: Do kids drag your career down?
> But recognize quickly that your employment environment may be incompatible with family life, and so what's "slowing your career down" is your management... not your kids or your own performance.

Amen

Issue suggestions welcome. And what questions would you like to see answered?
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
I don’t believe it’s been made public. I only know about it because I see his name popping up on many unrelated efforts

I don’t say any of this to praise Sam (he doesn’t need it) but rather to explain why I thought his interview was interesting.

eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Thank you!
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
I appreciate this comment and the child comments below. Thinking about it, this was poor phrasing on my part. I smashed together three points:

1. Sam is a leader in SV 2. Sam has done a lot to invest/donate in biotech and nonprofits working on COVID 3. Many biotech companies have pivoted to COVID

The error was mine, not his. Thanks for the feedback.

eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
helpful - thx
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Your cynicism is probably well-earned but in this case misplaced. OOTC doesn't make any money.
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
I only meant we rushed it out as fast as we could in light of the emergency. It's not very produced or "professional" sounding or anything like that.

Sam has invested in a metric ton of COVID relief efforts and startups. I think we'd all be better off if more people followed his example in this respect.

eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Thank you, that's very kind to say.
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Yes
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Thank you for the suggestion
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Not yet. Would you like one?
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Working on it
eries··on “Out of the Crisis” Podcast
Produced this emergency podcast in short order with my friends at Breaker and LTSE. Happy to answer any questions or hear any feedback. Will have more episodes up soon
