The UAE exploring a swap line with the US should give us pause that the consequences of the Iran conflict are far greater than what we see priced in markets. Such explorations do not arise lightly, even behind closed doors.

Underlying threat which seems to be floated by Nasheedists… IF we don’t get our way… THEN we’d make sure President Muizzu wins! Like saying without them neither MDP nor PNC can win! Qasim’s position now held by Nasheed? The “king maker” claim & hype! When you know you can’t come back to power… get what you can kinda dilemma 😉 I think i’m going to enjoy watching the unfolding drama & sure to see the usual Kannaadi politics from Nasheedists too! 🍿

You can do the following simple calculation. Create a ratio btw a country's GDPpc and the average world GDPpc (obviously population weighted), all in PPP terms. And ask the Q: when has a given country achieved its peak income with respect to the world? Ask this Q for all so-called transition economies.

There's an old French saying: "gouverner, c'est prévoir" - "to govern is to foresee". Which means that if you wanted a good proxy to measure whether a state is seriously governed, strategic oil reserves would be a strong candidate. They're expensive, unglamorous, yield zero benefits in the short term... but they're indispensable the day a crisis arrives, as it inevitably always does. Now look at the ranking below and draw your own conclusions. I'll just say, as a European, that the fact that Europe as a whole has fewer strategic reserves than Japan tells you pretty much everything you need to know about governance on the continent...

@xahidcreator @MMuizzu Are you retarded? We negotiated a subsequent swap worth INR 90B ~= $388M under presumably worse interest terms to plug the gaping hole in FX liquidity left behind by the previous swap expiring.

Polymarket is inevitably a scam. Only scum can even come up with such a concept in good conscience.
UxG@UxGsol

This guy literally hacked Polymarket with a hair dryer 💀 Happened in Paris. On Polymarket, temperature bets were settled using a single sensor near Charles de Gaulle Airport. He figured out the exact location, showed up in person, and placed a bet on an “impossible” outcome 22°C when the market expected 18°C. Then he pulled out a hair dryer and heated the sensor. The artificial spike got recorded as the daily high → market settled → he cashed out. Did it twice. Walked away with ~$34K. While everyone’s arguing over indicators and alpha, this guy is out here doing IRL market manipulation.

Let’s accept it now, Vance’s abrupt departure from the talks was a strategic mistake. Iran came fully prepared, with a complete team and a clear intent to find a settlement. Walking away didn’t create leverage, it destroyed momentum. Now the equation has shifted. Iran knows Trump is under pressure to secure a deal, and that changes everything. The next time they come to the table, it won’t be on the same terms. They will demand more and get more. Walking away did not strengthen the U.S. position. It handed Iran time, clarity, and leverage.

Italian efficiency when it comes to coffee should be studied. In Italy: - Walk into a bar and look at the guy - Un caffe - 30 seconds later it’s ready - Shoot it - Leave €1 - Walk out In the US: - Join a line - Wait - Order coffee - Answer 12 questions: Size? Milk? Roast? Sugar? Temperature? Colombia beans? Name? How do you spell it? - $12.34 - Ask for a 20% tip. Click 5 times on a ipad to have a custom tip - Tap phone - ask where to send the invoice - Wait again on a different line - Someone call a name that sounds similar to mine - get the coffee - too hot, can't drink it - finally at temperature taste like shit

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs message to AFRICA: Unite as ONE continental economy, FOLLOW CHINA'S🇨🇳 MODEL 'If you add up the 55 countries of the African Union, that's around 1.5 billion people, same size as India and China. The big difference is the imperial powers divided Africa...they HAVE TO unite. As 55 countries you can't make it, but as ONE African continental economy, you can.'
Going Underground@GUnderground_TV

🚨HOW CHINA🇨🇳 SURPASSED THE UNITED STATES🇺🇸 'China has made absolutely extraordinary gains in renewable energy production and EV production and high speed rail production, absolutely leapfrogging what the USe and Western Europe have been able to achieve. Now this is remarkable. This is causing people in Washington and London to scratch their heads like how did China manage to do this? The reason is because China has public control over the financial system and so it can align finance and investments with the national development plans. It also has credit guidance policies. And so China can direct its incredible financial power towards what is most important for society and for the planet rather than just what is most important for capital. And that's what's enabled them to make these incredible developments in industries that are not necessarily the most profitable. And so I think that we can learn from basic industrial policy that China is implementing. I think that everyone's paying attention to this, certainly across the Global South, states are realising the need for industrial policy alor these lines.' -@jasonhickel on Going Underground

The shock from the war in the Middle East is global but the impact is uneven. Exporters able to keep exports flowing face smaller headwinds, while oil importers with limited policy space are more vulnerable. Our Chart of the Week shows where risks overlap: imf.org/en/blogs/artic…

With my Midwestern& ag background, I like it when the administration "shows me" the case -- what's the evidence of pressure in the key dollar funding markets that has them nervous and thinking this is 08 or 20 all over again? 4/4

Who the hell are these gate keepers First time in history leadership is worried about people joining and that also mostly people who had done hard work for the party. Most have earned their membership unlike the people who hung like leeches when in power. Go f yourselves
