An ISS Analytics review of 2018 proxy data shows female CEOs at large firms earn as much or more than men, but women one rung below the top often earn less. The split across roles favors men in operational posts like COO and CFO while women more often lead HR, general counsel, and CHRO roles.

Supreme Court Overrules Quill on Online Sales Tax
The Supreme Court voted 5-4 to let states require online retailers to collect sales tax, ending the Quill ruling. Big players like Target and Best Buy cheer the move as online rivals face new tax obligations under thresholds of 100,000 dollars in online sales or 200+ transactions annually. Small sellers warn of added burdens even as Anne Kelly of JunoActive notes current Minnesota tax responsibility due to her warehouse and staff.
