INTERNATIONAL concert dates for singer Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour have yet to be announced. But as a closet Swiftie (what her fans are known as), I have been following her ticketing troubles with hopes that these will be resolved before it is my turn to join the queue.

Meanwhile, my colleagues are discussing investing opportunities from this debacle – with one suggesting that a purchase of shares in a ticketing company with a dominant market position might return enough for me to buy a concert ticket when the time comes.
