China is attempting to do the impossible. The construction of 123 km underwater tunnel, the Bohai Strait Tunnel is on and it will cost China $42 billion.
On completion, the high speed transport system will reduce travel time between Dalian and Yantai from 8 hours to only 40 minutes. It will be the longest underwater beating 53.85 km Seikan Tunnel.

@puppyeh1 I receive the worst fills with IBKR on US Markets vs say Fidelity or Schwab
IBKR customer service is not good
I am actually surprised by their growth
Note I have been a client for over a decade
English

IBKR is great in terms of market access; FX; and margin rates. But if you have any kind of issue; irregularity; special sit (delisting/corporate event; etc) - even of the most vanilla or modest variety - it immediately transmogrifies into a hellhouse of pain.
Just be aware if you deal with them. This is the reality.

If you open a Chinese app for the first time, you’ll probably think it’s badly designed.
Too many icons and features. Everything crammed onto one screen.
If you grew up on Western apps, your instinct is immediate: this is cluttered.
But it works.
In the U.S., we’ve been trained to associate good UX with minimalism. In China, density often signals value.
Open WeChat or Alipay, and it feels overwhelming at first. Information-heavy, feature-packed.
But to local users, that density means capability. It says: everything you might need is already here in front of you.
If you enter a new market assuming your design taste equals good UX, you’ll misread the signal.
Good design is contextual.

I’m frequently disappointed in politicians but Tom Massie defied the odds in my unfortunate experiences with him, as he surpassed my lowest expectations.
This zero pretends to be a principled defender of liberty but, in the real world, he supports third-world tyranny.
Here are the receipts from a phone call I had with this zero offering him a briefing on multiple investigations he was inserting himself into by publicly commenting on them. Rather than affording the subjects of the cases their constitutional Right to due process, Massie chose to waive off the briefing and litigate it on X for clicks. Notice I tried to call him back but he wasn’t interested in facts.
It’s also of note that I never heard a single word from Massie during the process we engaged in to release the Epstein case docs. This process played out in media everywhere and yet Massie never reached out. Not once. It’s almost as if he wants to be a moron. As if ignorance is bliss for him. I’m horrified I once believed this guy was authentic.
