In the cover story, we'll tell you about, The Best Venture Capitalists in The World for 2014 - Every tech investor dreams of striking gold with a portfolio full of big exits. Here are this years best of the best.
Also, Inside Sequoia Capital: Silicon Valley's Innovation Factory - Sequoia Capital has emerged as Silicon Valley's search engine for disruption--and billionaires -- with its prescient support of companies such as WhatsApp, Dropbox, and Airbnb. That's why the firm dominates FORBES' 2014 Midas List.
Next, Look Who Sequoia Bankrolls: These 13 Tech Titans Stand Out - Over the years, Sequoia Capital has bankrolled a long list of legendary Silicon Valley companies, starting with Apple, Cisco Systems and Yahoo and going on to include disruptive new players such as WhatsApp, Airbnb, and Dropbox. Most of the time, Sequoias list of top investments is just that: a list. But on a recent Thursday evening, the roster came to life.
Then, Merger Mania Fueled by Accounting Rules That Can Make a Bad Deal Look Good - A funny thing happened after Facebook announced it was spending $19 billion to buy WhatsApp; its stock went up 6% over the next two weeks.

Followed by, China Unfettered: Redefining the Rules of the Seas - A rising China is seeking to assert its sea-boundary claims. It is naive to believe that a strong China will accept the conventional definition of what parts of the sea around it are under its jurisdiction.
And in our final story, Baseball's Highest-Paid Players 2014 - Sky-high local cable deals and the lack of a salary cap have combined to fuel a surge in massive contracts in baseball across the country.
