Hello, Stanford. Some news for you:

• Big Institutional Investors v. Republic Party.
• The Brunei Investment Agency is looking for deals in Malaysia.
• Australia’s Westfield launches $4.8 billion JV with the CPPIB.
• SOFAZ makes an official announcement about its intention to move into equities; hire external managers.
• South Australian Parliament has plans for a sub-national SWF from mining royalties.
• Where the Chinese SWF says 'no', the Chinese CB says 'yes'.  (European sovereign debt)
• The $71B Australian Future Fund only has $2B in Europe; 3% of portfolio. For a "diversified" investor, that's _remarkably_ light.
• Korea's NPS getting a taste of what it's like to be CalPERS. All eyes on you!
• So you remember that $50B in new cash for the CIC that's been all over the news lately? It's wrong. Again.  
• CalPERS actuary suggests lowering expected return. Good luck with that!
