The article reveals that hit sequels like Jurassic World and Star Wars: The Force Awakens helped push Hollywood’s global box office to a record $38 billion in 2015. But the industry faces troubling trends: It’s struggling to produce human-scale movies that break the action-sequel mold — and when it does make them, they often don’t make money. Studio heads know they eventually need to lead in digital or risk losing out to another screenbased center of gravity, the one in Silicon Valley.

The cover story 'Silicon Valley’s $585 Billion Problem' reveals that VCs have pumped up the value of the “unicorn” startups. Now tech IPOs are in trouble. Of all the Silicon Valley IPOs in the past couple of years, Lending Club’s might have been the surest bet of all. The San Francisco peer-to-peer lender is a star in the world of “fintech,” a growing sector made up of financial technology companies bent on disrupting the traditional banking


sector. Lending Club’s stock peaked about a week after its IPO, at nearly $26 a share, and has been retreating ever since. Time and time again during the current IPO cycle, Wall Street underwriters—egged on by ambitious CEOs, hungry venture capitalists, and favored institutional investors—have hyped one technology IPO after another. The bankers price the offerings for perfection, watch them soar on the first day of trading to deliver the coveted first-day spike, and don’t stick around to offer an explanation after the shares plunge below the first-day price.
