Why Paytm, India’s biggest fintech startup, opened its innovation lab in Canada
– canadianbusiness.com
Users can pay for everything from Uber to this Bengaluru autorickshaw using Paytm (Dhiraj Singh/Bloomberg/Getty)The floor is shaking in this sun-drenched, airy downtown Toronto office. Blame that on the two young men, one in shorts and a soccer jersey, thudding around the ping-pong table just off the centre of the room.
About 50 engineers, developers and data scientists—one of whom formerly worked at CERN, the European research facility which discovered the Higgs Boson particle—work in this two-story brick building in the Entertainment District. Their employer is not a buzzy homegrown startup or the Canadian branch plant of a Silicon Valley giant. Paytm Labs is the R&D arm for hyper-growth Indian financial technology firm Paytm. It’s led by Harinder Takhar, a Blackberry alumnus who started this facility in 2014 after three years as the parent company’s first CEO.

Closing 2 Trades (PCLN, TWTR, NFLX, ETSY)
– IntelligentSpeculator.net
This morning I will be closing 2 of the remaining 6 live trades which will open a couple more spots which will hopefully mean adding a new trade tomorrow. On February 1st I opened a trade going long Priceline (PCLN) and short Twitter (TWTR) which has done well and currently stands at +31,35% after a continued collapse by Twitter and once again Priceline beating on earnings. As always, you can see my 2017 (and previous years) long and short trades here:

The second trade that I’m closing was traded a couple of weeks ago when I went long Netflix (NFLX) and short Etsy (ETSY). Yesterday, ETSY got crushed after disappointing Q4 earnings so that trade now stands at +25.63%.
The company behind the popular messaging app Snapchat is expected to start trading Thursday after a better-than-expected stock offering.
