The [Wednesday] PapersHead to @BeachwoodReport for essential Barr-Mueller commentary. "Citadel CEO Ken Griffin bought a $238 million penthouse condo in New York City earlier this year and is expanding his Park Avenue offices, but Illinois' richest man says he's staying put in Chicago," the Tribune reports.
