Your Pension May Be Gambling On Human Life, Profiting From COVID Deaths – Forbes
Posted: August 6, 2020 at 7:10 pm
Your pension may gambling on highly-controversial life settlement funds which profit when people die ... [+] prematurely from COVID.
Whether you know it or not, your pension may be gambling on highly-speculative life settlement funds which profit when people die prematurely from COVID. Life settlement funds are controversial for a host of obvious and not-so-obvious reasons. These investments in a pension ensuring the retirement security of workers is doubly problematic.
Many public and private pensions are gambling on highly speculative funds that invest in so-called longevity-contingent assets, such as life insurance policies insuring the lives of individuals who are generally at least 70 years old. The insured individual must have a life expectancy ranging from, say, not less than two years to not more than 15 years. A given fund may have exposure to hundreds of lives in the portfolio with an average insured age of over 80 years old.
The sooner the terminally ill and other elderly insured individuals die, the betteras far as your pension is concerned.
With more than 80% of COVID deaths in the United States occurring in people aged 65 and older, this should be the best of times for gambling on these controversial funds which often promise annualized returns ranging from 8-12%. (Actual net returns are likely to be less than half those promised.)
If so, would it comfort you to know your pension was profiting from the misery of others?
Do you know whether your pension invests in life settlements? Have any such investments been clearly disclosed to you? Do the people managing your pension even know?
Believe it or not, they may not.
Today many alternative investment funds provide that they may withhold disclosure of underlying investments from pensions and participants, including stinky stuff like payday loans and life settlements.
Life settlement funds are controversial for a host of obvious and not-so-obvious reasons. Gambling on these highly speculative investments in a pension ensuring the retirement security of workers is doubly problematic.
Many regulators, lawmakers and other governmental authorities, as well as many insurance companies and insurance industry organizations, oppose the selling and buying of longevity-contingent assets. The industry and some of its participants have long been in legal and regulatory hot water. Opponents of the industry argue that these life insurance transactions are contrary to public policy by promoting financial speculation on human life and all-too-often involve elements of fraud and other wrongdoing.
Ask yourself: Why would an elderly, sickly or terminally ill insured person sell his or her life insurance policy? Because he or she needs cash to cover rising medical costs and living expenses? What are the chances the sale of that individuals life insurance policy may have been coerced or induced by fraud? Its no surprise that thoughtful regulators and lawmakers would be highly concerned.
The limited regulatory oversight of these funds is another major red flag. Many funds take the position that whole life settlements do not constitute securities under the federal securities laws and do not register as investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Compliance with other federal and state securities laws is also a concern. The SEC has long had difficulty reigning in industry abuses since unless securities are involved the agency generally lacks jurisdiction.
Worst of all, since the portfolio investments of these funds do not currently have a readily available market for valuation purposes, the likelihood that portfolio values, as well as investment returns may be inflated by the managers is high. This is particularly troublesome for open-ended investment funds, where new investors may be buying into a fund at an already inflated Net Asset Value (NAV). The life settlement asset class has had a troubled past with respect to inflated NAVs caused by funds underestimating life expectancies.
In other words, fund managers, are so hopeful that the old and sick insureds will die sooner rather than later, they assume the life expectancies will be shorter.
In Europe, a number of open-end funds (so-called sickened death bond funds) have gated, trapping investors. After waiting several years for the funds to liquidate, investors have recovered only pennies on the dollar.
In my opinion, additional regulatory action regarding overvaluations of the portfolios of these funds is almost certainly coming. If so, your pensionyour retirement securitymay be at risk.
In 2016, the Office of the Virgin Islands Inspector Generalissued a scathing report finding that the Virgin Islands General Employees Retirement System had entered into an extremely risky and questionable life settlement investment that jeopardized about $42 million of its investment portfolio. This was done without performing the necessary due diligence and obtaining the necessary expert advice, before exposing the pension fund to this high-risk investment. As a result, GERS has already written-off 20% or $8.4 million of the remaining value. In addition, GERS also granted a $10 million line of credit to the same partnership that is handling the viatical. The majority of the proceeds were to pay past due and near term premiums for the policies.
An advisor to the pension noted, There is uncertainty on the use of viaticals as an investment by a defined benefit plan. Also, The nature of the investment in viaticals, that is an investment seeking profits off death, raises issues of social responsibility.
To be sure, in my opinion, life settlement funds are the antithesis of socially responsible investing.
Should your retirement savings be in longevity-contingent assets supporting speculation on human life which often involve elements of fraud and other wrongdoing? First, find out whether your pension is invested in these funds, then let your voice be heard. Best case scenarioyour pension is profiting from the misery of others. Far more likelyits losing money playing in this nasty sandbox.

NeoGenomics Slumps in Q2 but Readies for Second-Half Rebound – The Motley Fool
Posted: at 7:10 pm
The coronavirus pandemic hit the business pretty hard, but NeoGenomics (NASDAQ:NEO) had been preparing investors for months. Properly setting expectations turned out to be a great move.
Shares of NeoGenomics reached all-time highs shortly after the company announced second-quarter 2020 operating results. The financial metrics weren't pretty, and there's lingering uncertainty about the course of the coronavirus pandemic and its effects on the business, but investors are largely confident in the long-term strategy.
Can the growth stock maintain its expensive valuation?
Image source: Getty Images.
NeoGenomics is an oncology reference lab operating two business segments: clinical services and pharma services. The former collects patient samples from doctors, performs the test(s) selected by customers from a comprehensive menu, and returns the data. The latter helps biopharmaceutical companies to identify biomarkers for drug development, access oncology-specific datasets from pathologists, and develop and validate companion diagnostics.
When first-quarter 2020 operating results were announced, management prepared investors for a sour showing in the second quarter. The coronavirus pandemic was expected to impact clinical trials, which would hurt both business segments. However, NeoGenomics announced it wouldn't furlough employees and would continue investing in the business.
For the second quarter of 2020, total revenue slipped 14% compared to the year-ago period -- a sharp contrast to the double-digit growth investors have grown accustomed to in recent years. Gross profit sank due to lower revenue per test and higher costs, leaving investors with a relatively weak first-half showing for the business.

Pharma services revenue was the only bright spot, although the increase was entirely explained by the recent acquisition of assets from Human Longevity.
Despite the tough operating environment, management didn't flinch. On the second-quarter 2020 earnings conference call, CEO Douglas VanOort laid out a six-part business update comprising strategy and investments. Two developments in particular stood out.
NeoGenomics has converted a portion of its lab space to run up to 10,000 SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic tests per day, which could increase in the future. The business has also made a $25 million investment in a liquid biopsy start-up called Inivata. The equity investment gives the oncology reference lab the exclusive option to acquire Inivata.
More important, the investment provides NeoGenomics the option to commercialize the company's InvisionFirst-Lung liquid biopsy test. The diagnostic tests 37 relevant genes to drive care decisions for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is covered by Medicare and multiple private insurance payers, and is one of only two next-generation sequencing (NGS) tests with specific Medicare coverage.
NeoGenomics ended June with $331 million in cash, which is more than enough to weather a prolonged downturn. Management acknowledged the uncertainty of the coronavirus pandemic, but has already begun to see signs of a rebound.
In April, test volumes were down 30% compared to the year-ago period. By June, test volumes were back in line with the prior-year period, although they were about 15% below pre-pandemic expectations for 2020. Volumes had not recovered to pre-pandemic expectations through July.
But management remains confident in the long-term plan. NeoGenomics is well-positioned for a strong recovery if and when the market permits. The business doesn't need an exceptional recovery -- a "V-shaped" recovery, if you will -- to climb back to profitability or growth. What's more, it could take advantage of the economic effects of the pandemic to acquire smaller peers that might be struggling.
That said, shares of NeoGenomics are certainly expensive. Is that the price to pay for profitable growth in an uncertain world? Perhaps, but investors might be better off waiting for a pullback, as the current valuation (as with many stocks right now) appears unsustainable in the near-term.

How to live longer: Diet shown to burn fat, improve heart health and to boost longevity – Express
Posted: at 7:10 pm
In ones quest to find solutions to help live a long and disease-free life, numerous theories and suggestions have been declared. Intermittent fasting has gained much notoriety over the pastyear,and according to leading healthexperts, this type of eatingcould be the answer to helping you boost your life longevity. How?
A review of past animal and human studies in The New England Journal of Medicine recommend adopting a way of eating known as intermittent fasting which can help reduce blood pressure, aid in weight loss and improve longevity.
Alternating between fasting and eating can help to improve cellular health.
Professor Mark Mattson from John Hopkins University said the way of eating can help to trigger a metabolic switch.
In metabolic switching, cells use up their fuel stores and convert fat to energy this in turns helps fat to switch from fat-storing to fat-saving and has many health benefits.
The way of eating involves daily-time restricted feeding.
This narrows the time of eating to six to eight hours per day which is also known as 5:2 intermittent fasting, in which people limit themselves to one moderate-sized meal two days each week.
Findings on intermittent fasting range in the diets effectiveness, but some studies in animals and humans have linked the practice to longer lives, healthier hearts and improved cognition.
DON'T MISSHigh blood pressure: Studies show adding this drink to your diet will lower your reading[TIPS]Hair loss treatment: A mineral which strengthens hair follicles to stimulate hair growth[TIPS]High blood pressure: Study reveals the best type of breakfast cereal to lower your reading[TIPS]
When finding benefits of the diet, looking at different countries who adopt this way of eating as a norm often helps.
Residents of Okinawa are known for their extreme longevity and low-calorie, nutrient-rich diet.
Their way of eating has been suggested to help contribute to their long-life spans, low number of obesity and reduced risk of diseases.
Professor Mattson says studies have shown that this switch improves blood sugar regulation, increases resistance to stress and suppresses inflammation.
The professor notes that four studies in both animals and people found intermittent fasting also helped to decrease blood pressure, blood lipid levels and resting heart rates.
Preliminary studies suggest that intermittent fasting could benefit brain health too.
A clinical trial at the University of Toronto found that 220 healthy adults who maintained a calorie restricted diet for two years showed signs of improved memory in a battery of cognitive tests.
Professor Mattson added: Patients should be advised that feeling hungry and irritable is common initially and usually passes after two weeks to a month as the body and brain become accustomed to the new habit.
Mattson suggests a gradual acclimation to fasting rather than going cold turkey will help with this.
Mattsonalsohopes this study will give better insight to physicians, who can pass that guidance on to their patients.
For an added benefit, eating a Mediterranean diet during the eating phasecouldnot only boost longevity but improve heart health too.

Common sense and courage will get us through – News-Press Now
Posted: at 7:10 pm
The news earns me a living, but I dont live the news. When not at work I try to limit my news viewing if I want to enjoy living. If I dont restrict my news consumption, my life will be spent in constant fear.
Illegal immigrants are coming to rob and kill us. Muslims will kill us. Russia China and North Korea will kill us. Police will kill us. Blacks will kill us. Whites will kill us. Mexicans will kill us. The coronavirus will kill us.
Im not saying we shouldnt be cautious and safe, especially when it comes to the coronavirus and all the other fears but use common sense.
According to Lewis & Clark College President Barry Glassner, one of the countrys leading sociologists and author of The Culture of Fear as reported in Rolling Stone magazine, Most Americans are living in the safest place at the safest time in human history.
Around the world, household wealth, education and longevity are on the rise while violent crime and extreme poverty are down. Our air is the cleanest its been in more than a decade, and for the most part our water supply is safe.
Because, according to Glassner, We are living in the most fearmongering time in human history. And the main reason for this is that theres a lot of power and money available to individuals and organizations who can perpetuate these fears.
If we are in the safest of times, why are we more fearful than ever?
Glassner offered this answer: For mass media, insurance companies, Big Pharma, advocacy groups and politicians, your fear is worth billions and your fear is easy to manipulate. Were wired to respond to it above everything else.
Andrew Hubermn, a Stanford neurobiology professor who runs a lab studying fear, said, The more we learn about the brain, the more we learn its not something thats supposed to make you happy all the time. Its primary job is to keep us alive, which is why its so easy to flip people into fear all the time.
I know we have to be extra safe with wearing masks and social distancing during this pandemic, but weve been in safety hyper mode for a long while before.
We dont even let our kids venture down the block or stray too far from our sight. When I was a kid, we were allowed to roam wherever we wanted as long as we were home before dark. We ate green apples, had dirt-clod fights, played in tunnels, rode bikes all over town and survived.
When the city had trucks spraying a kerosene mist for mosquitoes in the summer and kids would run and play in the fumes, parents watched calmly from the porch. We survived that too.
We survived all the boogeymen, real or imagined, through common sense and courage.
That common sense and courage are needed today. We are a strong people. We are survivors. We survived the worst times in history and were here to win another battle.
