Georgia sits at 5-2 on the season and will visit Columbia, S.C. on Saturday. There’ll be a familiar face on the other sideline, although that would have been the case had Will Muschamp not been let go a little over a week ago. Mike Bobo is the Gamecocks interim head coach and like Muschamp, he’s also a close friend of Bulldog head coach Kirby Smart.

Bobo was on Georgia’s coaching staff from 2001 to 2014, serving as offensive coordinator for the final eight seasons of that tenure. He also played quarterback for the Bulldogs while Kirby Smart was on the other side of the ball at safety. This SEC East matchup really hurt UGA last year.

| TRAVEL IN BALI

As Australians hopes travel bubbles may start to appear in 2021, new images from some of Bali’s most popular beaches combined with soaring coronavirus figures prove we won’t be making a return anytime soon.

Indonesia is grappling with a new surge of COVID-19 cases – this week recording the largest number of daily cases on record – and beaches in Sanur and Seminyak are heaving as local tourists flood the coast.

According to local media, a number of videos are circulating on social media, showing crowds of people congregating on beaches in Sanur and Seminyak. While some people appear to be wearing masks, many have gone without.

The other concerning element is the lack of social distancing, with hundreds sitting in close proximity to one another.

“Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket.”

It’s an age-old aphorism, but thanks to its application to the principles of diversification in an investment portfolio, we hear it all the time.

It can apply to individual stocks as well. When there’s a single, binary event facing a company, owning the shares amounts to a simple “bet” on whether or not that event actually happens. It’s certainly not impossible to make money this way, but it’s gambling – not investing.

In the case of the shares of the big cruise lines, the event shareholders are waiting for is US government assistance to plug the holes left by ceasing almost all revenue generating operations for six months and counting. Owning the shares not is essentially a bet on a bailout.
