Carry trades refer to operations wherein an investor borrows in a currency with low interest rates, such as the Japanese yen, and reinvests the proceeds in higher-yielding assets elsewhere. The trading strategy has been hugely popular in recent years.

The ban targets software companies RealPage and Yardi. “RealPage has exacerbated our rent crisis and empowered corporate landlords to intentionally keep units vacant. So we’re taking action locally to ensure our working renters can afford to live here,” Peskin said.
RealPage and Yardi “collect and combine proprietary large landlord data and make pricing and occupancy recommendations,” Peskin’s office said. “These recommendations then effectively become the lay of the land, with multiple investigations finding they amount to illegal price-fixing. RealPage’s own executives have told investors that its software has driven double-digit increases in rents, increased ‘turnover’ of units, and increased vacancy rates.”

It’s by Rosa Luxemborg in 1916.
The expansion of renewable energy by China is going to significantly accelerate China’s competitive advantage too. Renewables are really low cost after the initial build-out is recuperated. This will make China’s goods even cheaper in the long run.

I skipped out on paying debts, and now the ebil CCP might arrest me if I go back. SO UNFAIR! I’m a wealthy mouth piece for capitalism, don’t they know I’m special?!?!?

It’s funny because there’s the pro-Palestinian Jews that say the zionist entity is against their god’s word, but the zionazi’s are just like “Na tho, god gave it to us, and we don’t even believe in him”.
now reading the piece, holy shit!
Yes, He promised an ingathering of the exiles, and while the Messiah has not yet come, with the miraculous State of Israel, that has largely occurred. But October 7 shattered the founding principle of a Jewish state, namely, that once Jews are in their land, protected by their army, there would never again be mass murder of Jews or anything resembling a holocaust.
We waited for Israel for 2,000 years. Did God have to shatter the promise of security in our land so decisively?
:sponge-gestures-all-around: Seems so.
“The end goal is still to be able to bring supplies to our troops…to be able to practice freedom of navigation and overflight, without necessarily escalating the situation you’re in,” Brawner said.
In the same briefing, Brawner said the Philippines’ armed forces will also coordinate with a senator who claimed to have knowledge of a Chinese plan to target her country with hypersonic missiles.
Senator Imee Marcos, the president’s sister and head of the senate foreign relations committee, created a stir earlier this week with her video, posted on Tik Tok. She has provided no evidence for the claim.
The Chinese foreign ministry said it does not know where the claims came from, but maintained Beijing adheres to a defensive national defence policy and does not pose a threat to any country.
“Of course, we will never sit idly by and watch our legitimate rights and interests and regional peace and stability being violated and threatened,” Mao said.
Beijing had previously condemned the deployment of a U.S. intermediate range missile system on Philippine soil during joint military exercises in April and May.
An army spokesperson confirmed the Typhon missile launcher remains deployed in the Philippines’ northern islands, and there was no specific date yet as to when it would be “shipped out”.
Manila has sought wider international support on its maritime claims, seeking closer ties with countries to advocate for a rules-based order that recognises international law.
Classic USA puppeteering playbook.
C’mon Jack, reindustrialize already!
Out of morbid curiosity, I did some math.
14,000 Mark 84 bombs each containing 429 kg of Tritonal comes to 6,006,000 kgs.
Tritonal is approximately 18% more powerful than TNT alone.
So we multiply by 1.18 to come to TNT equivalence of 7,087,080 kgs divided by 1000 to get metric tons of TNT (7087.08) which is the unit used for nuclear explosive yield.
the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT_equivalent
Using the NukeMap website, you can see the equivalent damage radii of a 7087.08 KiloTon detonation overlaid on any place around the world. https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/
At a unit cost of $16,000, 14k bombs comes to $224,000,000.
Here is the detonation overlaid on Washington DC: https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/?&kt=7087&lat=38.8946925&lng=-77.0218993&airburst=0&hob_ft=0&psi=20,5,1&zm=11
Is this so that the conscripts will be able to read the US weapons’ user manuals?
Ya, just saw the headline about anti-tax protesters shot dead. Interesting context to say the least.
