O ver the holidays, more and more ads for items in the Facebook Marketplace started to pop up on my feed. I’ve never bought anything through Marketplace before, which has been around since 2016—when it comes to strangers on the internet, you never know what you’re going to get. But I was curious about who is selling what in the Islands, so I started poking around. You can get everything from furniture to child care to a home and other, uh, more confusing items.

Hot Tamales: Three vendors are selling homemade tamales, all based at Schofield (and they don’t know each other, by the way). One told me that this is her third year making and selling them for the holidays. “It’s what I’m accustomed to having this time of year and not many people know how to make them,” she said over Messenger.
Were you following this:
MPB, a marketplace for camera gear, is latest the media business to land at Industry City in
MPB, an online marketplace where photographers can buy, sell and trade gear, has opened a 20,000-square-foot headquarters in the Sunset Park, Brooklyn, complex, according to the investor group that owns the property.
United Kingdom–based MPB plans to use the Industry City office as its North American headquarters. MPB first landed in New York three years ago with an office in Manhattan's Flatiron District.
The company last year raised roughly $11 million in Series C funding to grow its platform for photographers and videographers.
How the CEO of 1stdibs Brought the Luxury Design Marketplace Online – Robb Report
Originally a platform where dealers in antique and vintage furniture listed items for sale (purchases were made offline), 1stdibs was recast in 2016 by Rosenblatt and his team as an e-commerce forum that allowed transactions to occur on-site. The momentum has scarcely stopped since: This year, 1stdibs expects to notch well over $300 million in sales.

Mount Dora Marketplace celebrates digs with community - News - Daily Commercial - Leesburg, FL
"It’s been a long journey but we couldn’t be happier with the results. To have been able to do this for Mount Dora is a big accomplishment and we are so proud of the vendors, the people who have supported them and our town," said Project Manager Dawn Williams of the Mount Dora Marketplace, a concept she had a hand in creating and bringing to fruition.
MOUNT DORA – Although the doors to the Mount Dora Marketplace have been open for a few months, the new downtown business was officially welcomed into the community Thursday by way of a ribbon cutting and celebration attended by hundreds.
Quite a lot has been going on:

240 apartment units headed to Lebanon Marketplace | News | lebanondemocrat.com
A 240-unit apartment complex in the Lebanon Marketplace development is set to begin construction early next month, with the first units projected to be available by December.
The Lebanon Planning Commission approved the location in March 2019, with final staff approval granted in December 2019. SR Residential Partners LLC is currently securing building permits.
"I think having an apartment complex at that location is going to be a good thing for the city," Lebanon Mayor Bernie Ash said. "It won't affect single-family homes, it's a good location and I think it's going to bring retail in. It's a win-win situation for Lebanon."
Bloomberg is paying for sponsored memes. Any ROI? - Marketplace
Earlier this month, Democratic presidential hopeful Michael Bloomberg hired a team of meme creators to post viral social media content for his campaign. Given the polls at the moment, it doesn’t seem like it worked, but we’re definitely still talking about it.
Taylor Lorenz: Not really a ton. The Federal Trade Commission has tried to issue rules and guidelines around disclosure on sponsored content. It has not been effective. There’s really no way to police these massive platforms. The majority of content related to politics is not sponsored, it’s organic content. When you look at who’s generating the most online conversation, it’s undeniably Trump and Bernie Sanders.
Bond yields hit a record low - Marketplace
The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note hit its lowest level ever Friday, a bit over 1.1%. That means the government can borrow $100, do whatever it wants with that money for a decade, and then at the end of it, pay back just a $101 and some change. That’s basically free money.
We pay attention to bond yields because they can tell us a lot about where the economy’s going and where investors’ heads are at.
Yield just means how much money you’re going to make on a bond. Very simply, if bond yields are falling, it means investors are paying more money to purchase bonds with smaller payoffs.
