A free head - now is that not an advantage of life in the Archipelago?
Q: "Why didn't you tell U.S. allies…about the war before attacking Iran?" President Trump: "We wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"
An Ex-Goldman MD who traded nat gas for 12 years thinks systematic trading models can have fatal flaws when applied to commodities. "If you had this strategy running in 2015, there would not be a possibility of the gold market trading 4,000." - let alone 5000 The model has no data for what's never happened. "What you've seen in the last eight weeks — prices going vertical — that is not found in the history of the gold market anywhere." So the algo fades it. In week two. In week three. "I think humans matter." Every quant who thinks they've solved regime detection needs to answer this.
🚨| Verstappen: “I don't have to be just an F1 driver. Elsewhere there are old-fashioned races, with less politics”: — Max Verstappen expressed his dissatisfaction with the current state of Formula 1, likening it to "Formula E with steroids" and showing interest in other racing championships. Speaking at the Chinese GP press conference, Verstappen explained: “I'd like to have a little more fun in F1, but I'm also doing other things that I really enjoy. I will race at the Nordschleife and I hope to be able to race at Spa and Le Mans in the coming years. I am combining everything to find other things that I really enjoy. I have a lot of distractions. Nice distractions, I would call them.” “There the races are probably a little more old-fashioned and there's less politics, all things that I appreciate and where I can be more myself.” “I don't have to be just an F1 driver. I can also do other things, especially since I've been racing in F1 for a while and I've already achieved everything I wanted.” — Verstappen, a four-time world champion, emphasized his desire to explore other racing opportunities, such as the Nürburgring 24 Hours with a Mercedes AMG GT3, due to his lack of enjoyment with the 2026 F1 cars. #maxverstappen 🇳🇱 VIA: [formulapassion]
