COST: lots of talk on CNBC yesterday regarding Costco. Link here for Motley Fool discussion.

Bullet train: not much to say; simply slowly moving along. Cost overrun simply a data point now, now no longer a show stopper. From The Fresno Bee:

The 171-mile Merced-to-Bakersfield stretch of high-speed rail could begin passenger service by Jan. 1, 2032, according to a report released Friday by the state agency administering the project. 
That’s almost two years earlier than the Dec. 31, 2033, deadline the California High-Speed Rail Authority has been working to satisfy in the Central Valley, where construction is active on 119 miles and the first tracks are planned to be laid next year
But the report also notes that the Merced-to-Bakersfield segment, prioritized by California law in 2022, will not operate profitably. The rail authority is proposing ways to more quickly move the project beyond its current focus while it continues to work on the Central Valley section. 
It's widely accepted that the MTB focus was simply for the photo op, a PR stunt, the ultimate train to nowhere.

UNP - NSC: merger approved by shareholders.
