What does a Screwdriver, a Bloody Mary and Sex on the Beach have in common? All three are iconic cocktails that contain vodka as a main ingredient. Iconic appeal is also the ambition of Russian Alcohol Siberian Group (ASG), one of the world’s leading vodka manufacturers—and a primary reason why the company started a digital transformation process.

The Recipe to Becoming Russia’s Largest Distillery

Alcohol Siberian Group is a Moscow based spirits manufacturer that produces vodkas, liquors, and bitters.

Oct. 7 (UPI) — Mortgage rates in the United States have fallen to new lows and spurred a flurry of applications to refinance, an industry report said Wednesday.

The Mortgage Bankers Association said in its weekly report that interest rates for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell to 3.01% last week. Moreover, refinancing applications rose 8% and are 50% higher than they were last year at this time.

“Mortgage rates declined across the board last week — with most falling to record lows — and borrowers responded,” Joel Kan, MBA associate vice president of economic and industry forecasting, said in a statement. “The refinance index … hit its highest level since mid-August.”

The lower mortgage rates — which have sunk to record levels multiple times in recent months — have not corresponded, however, to a surge in applications from homebuyers.

While those applications are 21% higher year-to-year, they declined by 2%

Canadian portfolio manager Stephen Jarislowsky, wrote in 2005 that investors more often than not, can buy IPO stocks for less than their issue price within 12-24 months of going public. Levi Strauss (NYSE:LEVI) went public in March 2019 at $17 a share. A little more than 18 months since its IPO, LEVI stock is trading for less.
