I have a son in law who is a well published PhD in computational biology (big data DNA analysis). Last time he was looking he interviewed with a couple of those medical data start-ups. Always got down to the same thing, a guy who had cashed out a startup and was looking for the next big thing. Lots of jargon and slogans, zero results and no real products. Not saying UNH will be funding that type, but I am saying there are a lot of tech hustlers out there in the medical field these days.

ELSEWHERE: bossman, this is chilling to the bone:
The Wall Street Journal reported a technical error at Fidelity Investments on Wednesday [this morning] blocked
millions of customers from their online brokerage accounts [
for TWO HOURS].
Attempts to log in were met with an error message reading: “Due to a technical error, the system is temporarily unavailable.”
A spokesperson said that the company is working to resolve an “internal tech issue”
affecting all users of the firm’s website and mobile app.
Fidelity is among the largest U.S. online brokerage firms. Its personal investing business had $1.72 trillion in client assets under administration at the end of 2016 and
17.9 million accounts, according to the firm’s most recent annual report.
