Target-date funds: lessons learned?
With data from 2011 to 2020, we find that target-date funds (TDFs) do reduce their allocation to equities as they move closer to their target dates, that is, there is an absence of the return chasing strategies that existed prior to the 2008/9 financial crisis. We also find significant heterogeneity in expense ratios, turnovers, asset allocations, and performance among TDFs with the same target-date.

Invasive Streptococcus oralis Expressing Serotype 3 Pneumococcal Capsule, Japan
Streptococcus oralis is a viridans streptococcus that is divided into 3 subspecies S. oralis subsp. oralis, dentisani, and tigurinus (1). Differentiation between these subspecies and other α-hemolytic streptococci, including S. pneumoniae, remains difficult because they share similar biochemical properties. S. oralis inhabits the oral cavity and can cause severe infections in persons with immunodeficiency (2).

Recurrent uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumors with the growth regulation by estrogen in breast cancer 1-nuclear receptor coactivator 2 fusion gene: a case report and literature review
Abstract Background Uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumors (UTROSCTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms predominantly arising in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. UTROSCTs with growth regulation by estrogen in breast cancer 1 (GREB1)-rearrangement or GREB1-rearranged uterine tumors are exceptionally rare, with only 12 previously reported cases. Here, we report a case of UTROSCT with the GREB1-nuclear receptor coactivator 2 (NCOA2) fusion gene.
