Li Lu, the founder of Himalaya Capital, had a reputation for applying the value investing principles of Ben Graham, similar to Munger and Buffett. Instead of focusing on the crowded American market, Li turned his attention to Chinese stocks, where...

For years now, winery owner Michael Ballard has allowed his longtime vineyard manager, Marcelino Martinez, and his family to live rent-free in a trailer parked on the winery's property. County officials say this violates a county ordinance prohibiting...
