7500と7600の違い 6月27日(水)

Junio Venite Siete (Miercoles)
 昨日のJFKで起きた事件でした、JetBlueの飛行機が送信不能になり、パイロットが管制塔に送った信号は、7600ではなく、間違えて7500でした。
 7600は、ラジオ故障、7500はハイジャックなのです。このためこの誤送信を信じた警察は大慌て、飛行機の周りを取り囲み、機内に警察官が入り込む事態になりました。これ、すごい罰金になるでしょう。

 これは雑学かも?この会社はアメリカの会社なのか?

とまあ、製造業を中心に、アメリカの会社はどんどん、海外の会社に買われています。まあ、それほど会社というものに愛着がないとも言え、創業者はそれでお金が入るなら?程度にしか考えていないのかと。会社はお金を生むものであり、それが膨らむチャンスがあるなら、売るのでしょう。「私のものだ」という日本的な発想では、いつまで経っても成長しないのでは?とも思うわけです。

 そろそろ不動産バブルの崩壊? というこで昨年比で下がっている大都市は?

As of April 2018, the demand for homes was higher than the available inventory in the mid-Texas city, according to the Austin Board of Realtors. Although home prices are dropping in Austin, it’s one of the cities where the cost of living is quickly rising, a separate GOBankingRates study found.オースティン(TX)

Slide 11 of 17: March 2017 median list price: $79,900March 2018 median list price: $69,000Year-over-year change in median listing price: -$10,900Although home prices in Birmingham were higher than in Toledo in March 2017, thanks to a large drop in prices, Birmingham now has the most affordable homes of any of the cities on this list.

という感じで、すでに昨年比で下落する傾向が出ています。それにしてもホノルルの中間価格は実に高いです。

 ソニー社長兼CEOを務めていた現会長の平井一夫氏に対して、約27億円という巨額の役員報酬が支払われていました。その内訳は、基本報酬が2億4400万円。業績連動報酬が6億4700万円、社長退任にともなう株式退職金が11億8200万円、そこにストックオプションなどを加えて総額約27億円。日産のゴーンが10億円ですから、批判される。しかし、こういう人が増えていかないと、日本は変わらない。
 なんとなく1億を超える重役が増えてきていますが、まだまだ。世界に名だたる会社の社長を務めて最低でも10-20億出すくらいの懐がないと日本はダメですよ。

 
マジで蒸し暑いです。
9時からメヒコ戦を見たいが、買い物。10時に店に行って後半戦を見ます。
