With that uncertainty gone, future buyers would be willing to pay more for a unit in the tower, he said." ... A GLASS HALF FULL KIND OF GUY

YUAN BUSINESS TO EXPAND IN THE AMERICAS WITH A CLEARING BANK
China's Ministry of Finance planned to issue 12 billion yuan ($1.96 billion) of offshore yuan bond in Hong Kong in the
week of Nov. 17, of which 9 billion yuan will be issued to institutional investors and the rest will be sold to residents.
South Korea will launch direct trading between the yuan and the won in December and adopt a series of measures to
make the country an international hub for growing yuan businesses, the government said on Friday.
China's largest bank, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China 601398.SS 1398.HK, was appointed to clear all
yuan trades in Qatar, the People's Bank of China said on Tuesday.
China Construction Bank 601939.SS 0939.HK completed the sale of a 2 billion yuan 10-year offshore yuan bond at
4.9 percent on Thursday. Order books amounted to 13.7 billion yuan from 142 investors.

4 publisher approaches to the daily newsletter - Digiday
Monetization: Quartz’s newsletters are both sponsored and include native ad placements from brands. Previous advertisers include Comcast, Lincoln and Siemens. “It’s not a huge money-maker, but it certainly pays for itself,” Lichfeld said.
ADS
How it’s monetized: Vox monetizes its newsletter via standard banner placements.
ADS
How it’s monetized: While The Financial Times sells FastFT ad spots, the real business case for the newsletter is to drive more people to subscribe to Financial Times content. Jack said that by building a relationship with non-paying readers, the Financial Times can make a stronger case for why those readers should pay up. “We want people to see that The Financial Times can provide essential information of the day to those decision-makers,” he said.
UP-SELLING
How it’s monetized: Time uses the newsletter to both run ads and push readers to subscribe to its magazine.
