The global ship recycling market has entered a new chapter as the United States and Iran sign an interim peace agreement, reopening the Strait of Hormuz after more than 100 days of closure. In Week 25 of 2026, Brent crude collapsed to approximately USD 78 per barrel, erasing the entire war premium that had carried prices above USD 126 in late April. WTI also eased toward USD 75, while sanctions relief and the restart of halted Gulf oil production shifted market focus from supply disruption to potential oversupply. For the global ship recycling industry, this is a major turning point. The two forces that kept older vessels trading instead of recycling, high bunker costs and strong freight earnings, are now weakening together. The Baltic Dry Index eased to around 2,653 on June 17, while daily Capesize earnings fell to approximately USD 35,162 from the late-May high near USD 49,511. However, the timing remains difficult. Although peace has reopened the sea route and reduced the bunker-cost floor, the Indian subcontinent is now deep in the monsoon season. Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan continue to show demand, financing, and yard appetite, but beaching activity remains limited by weather. This week's episode examines: The interim US-Iran peace agreement and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz Brent crude collapsing toward USD 78 and the evaporation of the war premium Why lower bunker costs could finally release older vessels for recycling The continued cooling of dry bulk freight and Capesize earnings Why the monsoon now controls the beaching calendar across South Asia Bangladesh's stable Taka, steady steel prices, and strong post-monsoon outlook India's Rupee rally, softer Alang steel, and improving macro position Pakistan's firm Rupee, strong steel pricing, and fading Gulf proximity premium Turkey's Lira breaking 46 per dollar and Aliaga's continued EU-regulated niche Why the second half of 2026 may bring the strongest candidate flow since February Key market takeaway: Peace has been signed, the Strait of Hormuz has reopened, Brent has returned near pre-war levels, and the freight premium is cooling. The deferred wave of recycling candidates is now being primed, but the monsoon remains the immediate constraint. The ships are free to move, but the beaches must wait for the rains to ease. Peace is signed. The premium is gone. The ships are moving. But the rains reign.

pWotD Episode 3324: 2026 Peruvian general election Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 281,754 views on Monday, 8 June 2026 our article of the day is 2026 Peruvian general election.General elections were held in Peru from 12 to 13 April 2026 to elect the president, vice presidents, and the national legislature. As no presidential candidate achieved a majority of votes in the first round, a runoff election was held on 7 June. The presidential election will determine the president and vice presidents. The congressional elections will determine the composition of the Congress of Peru, which will return to being a bicameral legislature with a Senate (the first since the 1990 election) and a Chamber of Deputies. The elections come after proposals to hold them earlier due to the 2022–2023 Peruvian protests were rejected. In the first round, right-wing politician Keiko Fujimori placed first. Left-wing candidate Roberto Sánchez placed second, narrowly surpassing far-right businessman Rafael López Aliaga. Due to delays in various polling stations, election authorities extended voting by one day for voters unable to cast their ballots. Following Sánchez's rise in votes later in the tabulation process, López Aliaga reportedly began a disinformation campaign against electoral authorities, accusing the vote-counting process of being fraudulent. Electoral observers from the European Union and Peruvian authorities denied that voting irregularities took place. López Aliaga faces potential criminal charges related to an alleged incitement of civil disorder after calling for an insurgency. The National Jury of Elections (JNE) ruled that it would not annul the first round of elections and that the runoff election would take place on the scheduled date of 7 June 2026.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 05:20 UTC on Tuesday, 9 June 2026.For the full current version of the article, see 2026 Peruvian general election on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Danielle.

Traffic is returning through the Strait of Hormuz, but for the global ship recycling market, the timing has come too late. In Week 23 of 2026, vessel movements through Hormuz improved materially, even though the formal US-Iran framework remains unsigned. Brent crude eased into the USD 95–97 per barrel range as markets priced in de-escalation, while freight markets moved in the opposite direction. The Baltic Dry Index climbed above 3,200, and Capesize earnings touched nearly USD 49,500 per day, keeping older vessels trading rather than heading for recycling. Across the subcontinent, the key issue remains unchanged: demand is present, financing is available, pricing is firm, but tonnage supply remains limited. The pre-monsoon beaching window has now effectively closed, shifting the main constraint from geopolitics to weather. This week's episode examines: • Strait of Hormuz traffic recovery and US-Iran deal uncertainty • Brent crude easing and global energy market reaction • Baltic Dry Index strength and Capesize freight earnings • Why strong freight continues to delay ship recycling supply • Bangladesh ship recycling market stability and Taka performance • Chattogram demand, LC financing, and monsoon impact • Indian Rupee recovery and Alang market conditions • RBI policy measures and India's ship recycling outlook • Pakistan Rupee strength and Gadani pricing leadership • Turkey's Lira stability, inflation pressure, and Aliaga's EU-regulated niche • Subcontinent recycling prices, vessel supply, and cash buyer sentiment • Why the market enters monsoon season with demand intact but supply absent Key market takeaway: The Strait of Hormuz is gradually returning to operation, Brent crude has eased, and currency conditions have improved across parts of the subcontinent. However, dry bulk freight remains strong, older vessels continue trading, and the monsoon has now closed the practical recycling window. The traffic returns. The window is gone.

After seven weeks of uncertainty, the global ship recycling market finally received its strongest diplomatic breakthrough yet. In Week 22 of 2026, the United States and Iran reached a tentative agreement to extend the ceasefire and begin reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The announcement triggered a sharp decline in Brent crude oil prices, with Brent falling back toward USD 96-97 per barrel as markets began pricing in the prospect of restored Middle East energy flows. Yet despite the diplomatic progress, the ship recycling sector remains constrained by one critical factor: timing. While the Hormuz reopening narrative gathered momentum, the subcontinent recycling markets entered the final stages of the pre-monsoon season. With Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan approaching monsoon-related operational slowdowns, the long-awaited improvement in market sentiment arrived just as recycling activity faces its seasonal closure. Freight markets also remain supportive for vessel owners. The Baltic Dry Index strengthened above 3,100, Capesize earnings exceeded USD 44,000 per day, and dry bulk freight returns continued encouraging owners to keep older vessels trading rather than recycling them. This week's episode examines: • US-Iran ceasefire extension and Hormuz reopening developments • Brent crude oil decline and energy market reaction • Baltic Dry Index performance and dry bulk freight trends • Capesize and Panamax earnings outlook • Bangladesh ship recycling market conditions and LC financing stability • Indian Rupee recovery and Alang recycling market developments • Pakistan Rupee strength and Gadani pricing trends • Turkey's inflation outlook and Aliaga recycling market activity • Monsoon season impact on ship recycling decisions • Vessel supply shortages and demolition market sentiment • Cash buyer outlook and subcontinent recycling pricing • Global ship recycling market trends for owners, brokers, recyclers, and investors Key market takeaway: The deal the recycling market waited months to see has finally arrived. Oil prices have eased, diplomatic momentum has improved, and the Strait of Hormuz may eventually reopen. However, freight earnings remain elevated, vessel supply remains scarce, and the monsoon season is effectively closing the recycling window across the subcontinent. The passage may finally be opening. The recycling window has already closed.

Week 21 marks a major turning point in the global ship recycling market as the strongest reopening signal yet emerges from the Strait of Hormuz. Three supertankers transited the Strait for the first time since March, while President Trump said the United States is in the “final stages” of talks with Iran. Brent crude eased more than 5% to around USD 105 per barrel, and WTI moved below USD 100. However, for ship recycling, the timing remains critical. With only around one week left before the practical monsoon slowdown across the sub-continent, the improved passage signal may have arrived too late to release meaningful recycling tonnage into the market. Freight markets remain supportive for owners to keep older vessels trading. The Baltic Dry Index closed around 3,005 after peaking above 3,092, while Capesize earnings remained above USD 40,000 per day. Panamax earnings strengthened further, keeping the trading premium intact for older dry bulk vessels. Bangladesh continues to show strong operational stability, with the Taka holding around 122.87 against the U.S. Dollar and the Letter of Credit pipeline functioning for a sixth consecutive week. Bangladesh's April CPI rose to 9.04%, showing that inflationary pressure has reached Chattogram, but the impact remains contained compared with Pakistan and Turkey. India faces renewed currency pressure as the Rupee decisively broke above 96, touching a fresh all-time low near 96.97 against the U.S. Dollar. Despite this, India's April CPI remained calm at 3.48%, comfortably within the RBI's tolerance band. Alang remains the lowest-priced sub-continent destination, while retaining its strong HKC compliance advantage. Pakistan continues to consolidate its position, with the Pakistani Rupee holding firm around 278.63 against the U.S. Dollar. Local steel prices remain strong, keeping Gadani in one of the firmest pricing positions globally, supported by currency stability and the State Bank's earlier rate hike. Turkey remains structurally uncompetitive for mainstream tonnage despite another record low in the Turkish Lira. Aliaga continues to focus mainly on EU-regulated recycling candidates, where compliance requirements outweigh price differentials. This week's central market message is clear: Hormuz passage may be opening, Brent has eased, and diplomacy has reaccelerate, but the recycling window is closing. With freight earnings still elevated and monsoon approaching, recycling supply remains limited across all major destinations. This episode covers: Global ship recycling market trends Strait of Hormuz reopening signals Brent crude and WTI price movements Baltic Dry Index and dry bulk freight strength Capesize, Panamax, Supramax and Handysize earnings Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Turkey recycling markets Bangladesh inflation and Taka stability India Rupee record low and CPI performance Pakistan Rupee stability and Gadani pricing strength Turkey Lira weakness and Aliaga's EU-focused role Hong Kong Convention-compliant recycling yards Monsoon impact on ship recycling activity Cash buyer sentiment and recycling pricing outlook Vessel supply, backlog and owner decision-making Key Market Developments This Week Three supertankers crossed the Strait of Hormuz for the first time since March President Trump said U.S.–Iran talks are in the “final stages” Brent crude eased more than 5% to around USD 105 per barrel WTI moved below USD 100 per barrel Baltic Dry Index closed around 3,005 after peaking above 3,092 Capesize earnings remained above USD 40,000 per day Panamax earnings strengthened to more than USD 22,000 per day Bangladesh Taka remained stable around 122.87 against the U.S. Dollar Bangladesh April CPI rose to 9.04% Bangladesh LC pipeline remained operational for a sixth consecutive week Indian Rupee touched a fresh all-time low around 96.97 against the U.S. Dollar India April CPI remained controlled at 3.48% Pakistan Rupee held firm around 278.63 against the U.S. Dollar Gadani pricing remained among the strongest globally Turkish Lira weakened to a fresh record low around 45.58 against the U.S. Dollar Aliaga remained focused on EU-regulated tonnage Monsoon window narrowed to approximately one week Recycling tonnage supply remained limited despite stronger reopening signals For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X for daily updates.
Tras el anuncio de los resultados definitivos de la primera vuelta, Perú se apronta para una segunda vuelta entre Keiko Fujimori y Roberto Sánchez el próximo 7 de junio. Reflexionamos con el analista Mirko Lauer sobre lo que podría pasar en esta contienda electoral. Tras el minucioso recuento de votos en la primera vuelta, Perú afronta la recta final de sus elecciones generales con dos candidatos con puntos de vista ideológicos muy diferentes. “Dos partidos caudillistas” Se puede pensar que el enfrentamiento entre Keiko Fujimori y Roberto Sánchez dará lugar a una contienda que dirija al país en direcciones muy opuestas, pero también existe una similitud bien marcada, según el afamado escritor y analista político Mirko Lauer. “Cualquiera de los dos resultados se va a parecer mucho al otro resultado, porque no estamos realmente ante un izquierdista chocando contra una derechista. Lo que estamos es ante dos partidos caudillistas tratando de llegar al poder, pero nada más. Basta mirar los planes de gobierno de las dos agrupaciones para darse cuenta que de ahí no sale mucho”, explica Lauer. ¿Podría ganar Sánchez? Después de cuatro semanas de incertidumbre hay un factor que se antoja determinante: el modo in extremis de conseguir el balotaje suficiente para entrar en la segunda vuelta, ¿en que beneficiaría o perjudicaría a Sánchez a la hora de afrontar a Fujimori? “Yo creo que podría beneficiar un poquito a Sánchez, porque, por último, Sánchez es una especie de candidato de la revancha, que ha obtenido una buena parte de sus votos de los resentidos por lo que sienten que le ha sucedido a Pedro Castillo. Y entonces, de alguna manera, el dificultoso recuento se parece un poco a eso y podría ganarle algunos votantes”, estima Lauer. Pero, matiza el analista, “hay un dato importante aquí que es un dato de tipo, vamos a llamarlo ideológico. Nadie que ha votado por Rafael López Aliaga va a votar por Roberto Sánchez, ni de bromas. Y yo creo que nadie que ha votado por el señor Jorge Nieto tampoco va a votar por Roberto Sánchez. Esas son barreras ideológicas muy fuertes que yo creo que le van a impedir a Sánchez ganar”. Jorge Nieto, un hombre clave Para Lauer, el árbitro de la contienda electoral tiene un nombre propio: Jorge Nieto. “Jorge Nieto es un político de centro que ha logrado en un Senado muy poderoso con 30 personas, seis o siete senadores. Podría ser el hombre clave, definitivamente. Tanto si hace alianzas estables con Keiko Fujimori, como si hace alianzas esporádicas para temas puntuales”, subraya. Proclamados los resultados de las elecciones del 12 de abril, los peruanos están llamados a las urnas para la segunda vuelta presidencial el domingo 7 de junio.

Week 20 marks a decisive shift in the global ship recycling market as diplomatic momentum around Hormuz stalls, Brent crude rebounds above USD 107, and freight markets continue strengthening across the dry bulk sector. Despite last week's temporary optimism surrounding a possible ceasefire framework, owners are still holding onto older vessels as trading earnings remain exceptionally firm. The Baltic Dry Index breaking above 3,000 and Capesize earnings surpassing USD 43,000 per day continue reinforcing the economics of keeping aging tonnage active rather than recycling. As a result, the expected release of recycling candidates into the sub-continent has once again failed to materialize. Bangladesh remains the leading recycling destination on pricing and operational readiness, with stable currency conditions, active LC flows, and competitive steel plate pricing supporting Chattogram buyers. However, supply shortages persist as owners continue delaying recycling decisions ahead of monsoon closure. India faces renewed pressure as the Rupee weakens to another all-time low near 95.71 against the U.S. Dollar. Alang remains the lowest-priced destination while maintaining its strong HKC compliance advantage with more than 110 compliant yards operational. Pakistan's market position stabilizes after the State Bank's recent rate hike helped support the Pakistani Rupee, even as inflation pressures remain elevated. Gadani continues offering some of the firmest pricing in the market, supported by proximity advantages linked to ongoing Hormuz uncertainty. Turkey remains structurally uncompetitive for mainstream tonnage despite continued weakness in the Turkish Lira and rising inflation, leaving Aliaga focused primarily on EU-regulated recycling candidates. With only around two weeks remaining before the practical monsoon closure window, the central market question is no longer whether demand exists. It clearly does. The question is whether owners will release tonnage before the window closes. So far, strong freight markets, elevated oil prices, and unresolved geopolitical risk continue preventing meaningful supply flow into recycling yards. This episode covers: Global ship recycling market trends Brent crude oil rebound and Hormuz developments Baltic Dry Index and freight market strength Vessel recycling supply shortages Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Turkey market updates Steel plate pricing trends Currency movements and inflation pressures HKC-compliant recycling yards Monsoon impact on ship recycling activity Cash buyer sentiment and recycling pricing outlook Key Market Developments This Week • Brent rebounds from USD 96 back above USD 107 • Diplomatic momentum around Hormuz stalls • Baltic Dry Index breaks above 3,000 • Capesize earnings surge above USD 43,000/day • Freight strength continues delaying recycling decisions • Q2 recycling backlog hardens further • Bangladesh remains strongest pricing destination • Chattogram LC pipeline stays fully operational • India Rupee falls to fresh record lows near 95.71 • Alang maintains strong HKC compliance positioning • Pakistan Rupee firms despite inflation pressures • Gadani pricing remains among the strongest globally • Turkey inflation rises while Aliaga remains niche • Limited vessel supply continues across all destinations • Monsoon closure window narrows to approximately 2 weeks • Owners continue prioritizing trading over recycling For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X for daily updates.
Week 19 marks a major shift in the global ship recycling market as Brent crude falls sharply, diplomacy re-enters the Hormuz conversation, and freight markets move strongly in the opposite direction. Despite Brent correcting from USD 126.41 per barrel to near USD 100, the expected release of recycling tonnage has not materialized. The Baltic Dry Index climbed to 2,991, up 12% from the previous week, with Capesize earnings surging and daily returns moving above USD 42,000. Strong freight earnings continue to encourage owners to keep older vessels trading rather than sending them for recycling, keeping supply tight across the Indian sub-continent. Bangladesh remains the leading recycling destination, supported by firm demand, a stable Taka, sustained Letter of Credit flow, and competitive steel plate pricing. However, Chattogram continues to face the same core issue: buyers are ready, but vessels are not arriving. India saw sharp currency volatility, with the Rupee touching a fresh low around 95.27 before recovering near 94.18 on diplomatic headlines. Alang remains the lowest-priced sub-continent destination, but its HKC-compliant yard base continues to support regulated tonnage demand. Pakistan's position has become more complicated. Gadani pricing remains firm, with steel plate levels around USD 679 per ton, but April inflation surged to 10.9%, prompting a 100-basis-point rate hike to 11.5%. Pakistan's Gulf proximity premium still holds, but its earlier stability advantage has narrowed. Turkey remains structurally uncompetitive for mainstream tonnage, with the Lira weakening to a fresh record low and April inflation rising to 32.37%. Aliaga continues to rely mainly on EU-regulated tonnage, where compliance can outweigh the price gap. With only around 3 weeks left before the monsoon window closes, the central question is no longer whether demand exists. It does. The question is whether diplomacy can release vessel supply in time. For now, strong freight, unresolved Hormuz risks, inflation pressure, and limited candidate flow mean the backlog holds. This episode covers ship recycling prices, vessel supply, freight markets, oil prices, currencies, inflation, HKC compliance, and the latest developments across Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Turkey. Key Market Developments This Week • Brent crude falls from USD 126.41 to near USD 100 • Diplomacy re-enters the Hormuz discussion, but safe passage remains unresolved • Baltic Dry Index rises to 2,991, up 12% week-on-week • Capesize earnings strengthen, with daily returns above USD 42,000 • Strong freight continues to delay ship recycling decisions • Bangladesh remains the leading destination on demand and pricing • Chattogram LC pipeline remains stable and functional • India's Rupee touches 95.27 before recovering near 94.18 • Alang remains lowest-priced but retains strong HKC compliance advantage • Pakistan CPI jumps to 10.9%, triggering a 100-basis-point rate hike • Gadani pricing remains firm, but Pakistan's advantage narrows • Turkish Lira weakens to a fresh record low near 45.24 • Turkey inflation rises to 32.37%, keeping Aliaga niche and outpriced • No meaningful supply release despite Brent correction • Monsoon window narrows to approximately 3 weeks • Q1 overhang remains locked into a Q2 backlog
El alcalde de Lima, Rafael López Aliaga, aliado político de VOX y habitual en foros de la derecha internacional, ha reaccionado a su derrota electoral denunciando un supuesto fraude sin aportar pruebas, repitiendo un patrón ya visto en Perú y en otros países. Analizamos cómo se construye esa narrativa a través de bulos como el “plan Morrocoy”, la difusión de desinformación sobre el conteo de votos y la presión contra las autoridades electorales, incluyendo amenazas y acusaciones infundadas. También abordamos el papel de redes mediáticas, bots y sectores religiosos ultraconservadores en la amplificación del discurso, así como los paralelismos con estrategias utilizadas por figuras como Trump o Bolsonaro para deslegitimar procesos democráticos cuando los resultados no les favorecen.

This episode examines the aftermath of Peru's first-round presidential election held on April 12, 2025, recorded just five days later with results still not fully finalized. Host Adam Isacson speaks with Cynthia McClintock, a professor of Political Science and International Affairs at George Washington University who has studied Peruvian politics for over four decades. The conversation describes an extraordinarily fragmented and polarized electoral landscape. With 35 candidates on the ballot, the leading vote-getter—Keiko Fujimori, daughter of former authoritarian president Alberto Fujimori—led the count with only about 17 percent of the vote. The race for second place remained too close to call between Roberto Sánchez, a leftist candidate running under the mantle of impeached former president Pedro Castillo, and Rafael López Aliaga, a right-wing populist who served as mayor of Lima. The runoff, between candidates who will combine for less than 30 percent of the first-round vote, is scheduled for June 7th. McClintock traces Peru's current political dysfunction to the period following the 2016 election, during which Fujimori's party discovered the power of congressional impeachment. Peru has cycled through nine presidents in ten years, and McClintock argues that a corrupt governing coalition has consolidated power, particularly since Castillo's impeachment in December 2022. The discussion highlights the deep geographic and cultural divisions in Peruvian society. The gap between Lima and "las provincias"—Indigenous-majority rural and mountainous regions—manifests starkly in voting patterns. This division traces back centuries and reflects ongoing perceptions of discrimination and exclusion, even as economic indicators have improved. Organized crime and security are voters' primary concerns. While Peru's homicide rate remains low by regional standards, it has more than doubled since 2021-2022. Extortion has become particularly urgent. Yet paradoxically, Peru's economy continues to grow, buoyed by high commodity prices for copper and gold, though much mining activity is illegal and environmentally devastating. McClintock expresses concern about the future of accountability and democratic institutions. The newly reconstituted Senate grants Fujimori's party approximately one-third of seats, with significant power over appointments. On U.S.-Peru relations, she notes the current government has stayed under Washington's radar and is proceeding with a $3.5 billion F-16 purchase, though the Chinese-built Chancay port remains a potential point of tension. The episode concludes with McClintock explaining how the chaotic 35-candidate field happened by design: Fujimori's party had previously canceled a primary voting provision that would have winnowed the field, calculating that extreme fragmentation would allow them to win with a small plurality. Despite the grim political outlook, McClintock emphasizes the resilience of Peru and its people. Download this podcast episode's .mp3 file here.

Nicolás Lúcar, periodista de Exitosa, advirtió que un sector de la población no reconocería la legitimidad de los resultados electorales y que el escenario se definiría entre una eventual contienda de Keiko Fujimori frente a Rafael López Aliaga o a Roberto Sánchez. Noticias del Perú y actualidad, política.
Ralph welcomes journalist and author Megan Greenwell to discuss her book "Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream." Then, Ralph speaks to James Zogby (co-founder and president of the Arab American Institute) about the recent Israeli attacks on Lebanon.Megan Greenwell is a journalist who has written or edited for publications including the New York Times, the Washington Post, New York Magazine, WIRED, and ESPN. She is also the deputy director of the Princeton Summer Journalism Program, a workshop and college-access initiative for students from low-income backgrounds. She is the author of Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream.The real trick with private equity (and this was the thing that made me want to write a book on it) is that when they take out those billions of dollars worth of loans (if you're buying a bigger company), the private equity firm is not responsible for paying those loans back. Only the portfolio company in whose name the private equity firm has taken the money out is on the hook for that money. And so what you end up with is this split in incentive where what's good for the private equity firm is not necessarily what's good for its own portfolio company.Megan Greenwell[Congress hasn't repealed the carried interest loophole] because Congress is in the pocket of the private equity industry. 88% of members of the House and Senate take donations from private equity. Interestingly, Donald Trump has called twice for the carried interest loophole to be closed. And still, even he, as much of a stranglehold as he has on the Republican Party, he can't build support for it among Republicans. Because they're all taking private equity money, as are the vast majority of the Democrats. So this is not a partisan issue.Megan GreenwellOne of the reasons I was really interested to write this book as a series of narrative profiles of people trying to do something about [private equity] is: none of them are trying to do something about it through the federal government. And I think when we talk about “Only the federal government can save us,” we really risk turning people away from trying to do anything. And I think we've seen on the private equity issue there has been some really interesting movement on the state level in several places—real reforms that are much easier to accomplish on the state level than on the federal level.Megan GreenwellJames Zogby is co-founder and president of the Arab American Institute, and he is featured frequently on national and international media as an expert on Middle East affairs. Since 1992, he has written a weekly column— “Washington Watch” —that is published in 12 countries. He is the author of several books, including Looking at Iran: The Rise and Fall of Iran in Arab Public Opinion, The Tumultuous Decade: Arab, Turkish, and Iranian Public Opinion - 2010-2019, Arab Voices: What They Are Saying to Us, and Why it Matters, and Palestinians: The Invisible Victims.Not only are thousands being killed [in Lebanon], but there's a process underway of demolishing villages, obviously expelling lots of people, creating internal refugees and sectarian tension as a result of it. And clearly (as Israel has stated, and I think we have to believe them), that they actually want to annex the territory up to the Litani River and maybe even further. They call it a buffer zone, but we've heard that buffer zone stuff before. It's merely a way of taking new land and providing opportunities for settlements.James ZogbyAs we saw ourselves in Vietnam, as we saw in Iraq and Afghanistan, Israel is now getting PTSD reports that are deeply disturbing to them. They're getting suicides. They're getting an exhausted military. They're not exhausted with the weapons that they're losing (because they're losing a lot and they're using a lot), they're getting emotionally and physically exhausted. Look, when the soldiers do what they've been doing—which is basically inhuman behavior, I mean, it's disgraceful behavior—it begins to eat away at the soul. You get these suicides. You get these emotional collapses. And what gets me upset is that—72,000 Palestinians dead, a few Israeli soldiers having PTSD and trauma and committing suicide becomes a news story? My feeling has to be with the Lebanese and Palestinians.James ZogbyWhen I hear on the DNC from other members who say to me, “When you talk about Israeli genocide, that's anti-Semitic, it makes me uncomfortable,” I said, “You know what makes me uncomfortable? That genocide is actually taking place. And it makes me equally uncomfortable that you won't admit it or even want us to talk about it.”James ZogbyNews 4/17/26* Our top story this week comes to us from New York City, where Mayor Zohran Mamdani is delivering on yet another campaign promise thought impossible by mainstream pundits and beltway insiders: the creation of municipal grocery stores. Capping off his first 100 days in office, Mayor Mamdani delivered remarks in front of La Marqueta in East Harlem, the site of one of the original city-run grocery stores created under Fiorello LaGuardia. Mamdani laid out how the stores will operate, noting that while “A private operator will run the store,” they will “answer to the standards the city will set…[including] requirements that at our stores bread will be cheaper. Eggs will be cheaper. Grocery shopping will no longer be an unsolvable equation. And workers will be treated with dignity.” Mamdani plans to have the first of these stores open in 2027 and stores in all five boroughs open by the end of his term in 2029. This from NBC4 New York.* Meanwhile, in New York's 10th congressional district, former NYC Comptroller and Mamdani ally Brad Lander is aligning himself with AOC and calling for an end to U.S. aid to Israel. In a meeting with a group of local journalists, Lander said “We need to follow the Leahy Law and condition all of our foreign policy aid on human rights and international law compliance…At the moment, Israel is very far from complying with human rights and international law. So I would not vote for any more aid,” adding that he “hopes” Israel will “[get] there.” The Forward notes that this is an evolution from the position he took during his mayoral candidacy last year. At that time Lander opposed sending offensive weapons to Israel, but believed that the US should keep funding Israel's Iron Dome, per the New York Post. Through a representative, Lander's opponent in this race, incumbent Congressman Dan Goldman, told the Forward he “will always support defensive systems,” like Iron Dome.* The liberal Zionist organization J Street is also shifting its position. The Middle East Eye reports the group is calling for an end to “direct” US military support to Israel, according to a new policy paper. To be clear however, while this does mark a shift from J Street's previous position that the U.S. should provide defensive weapons systems – like resupply for Iron Dome, at no cost to Israelis – J Street now argues that Israel should simply purchase these weapons instead. In short, J Street is arguing that Israel is rich enough to provide for its own defense and that the American financial subsidies are “unnecessary and politically counterproductive, creating avoidable tensions in US domestic politics and in the bilateral relationship.” This is in line with statements by Netanyahu himself, who has made it clear that Israel wants to reduce its reliance on U.S. military aid “all the way down to zero.”* In other news, Reuters reports Apple is closing several of its brick-and-mortar stores, including the first ever unionized Apple store. Over 100 workers at the store, located in Towson Town Center mall in Maryland, voted to join the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers (IAM) in 2022; Reuters notes that “a similar union drive in Atlanta [around that same time] was withdrawn, with Apple workers alleging intimidation.”At the other stores being shuttered, employees were offered the option to continue their jobs at other nearby Apple stores. At the Towson store however, Apple is claiming that the collective bargaining agreement prevents relocation. The union says this is “false” and is reportedly exploring all legal options. IAM also expressed “serious concerns that this closure is a cynical attempt to bust the union.”* Elsewhere in Maryland, the state legislature has passed the Protection from Predatory Pricing Act. This bill, which Gov. Wes Moore has vowed to sign into law, is designed to prohibit surveillance pricing, the practice of retailers charging different shoppers different prices for the same item at the same time based on information the store knows about them as an individual. While crucial and innovative legislation, Consumer Reports – which “engaged on the bill…throughout the legislative process,” argues that it has been watered down to the point of inadequacy via lobbying by the Maryland Retail Alliance. Some of the added exceptions include failing to establish any baseline or standard price – given that “with no set standard price, everything can be marketed as a discount” — and exempting any pricing associated with loyalty or membership programs or subscriptions. The bill also does not contain strong enforcement provisions, such as a private right of action. So, while this bill is a start – and you have to start somewhere – we echo Consumer Reports' urging that “other state legislatures considering personalized pricing legislation to build in stronger consumer protections and avoid loopholes that weakened this bill.”* In more consumer news, the scourge of sports betting continues to metastasize. A new report from Siena Research Institute has produced staggering findings: “27% of Americans and [52%] of men ages 18-49…[say] they have an active account with an online sportsbook such as DraftKings, Caesars, FanDuel, or BetMGM.” And, while most respondents maintain that they bet because it is “exciting” and “fun”, “31% of bettors report having had someone express concern about their usage of online sportsbooks, [42%] of bettors...say they have felt that they bet more than they should…Fifteen percent of bettors…say they have called a problem gambling Helpline or sought other help with problem gambling, and 22% of respondents overall say they know someone that has or has had a problem with online sports betting.” Taken together, this represents a deeply troubling gambling wave cresting in this country. And, while legislators are beginning to take notice, the sports betting interests are beginning to fight back, with Bloomberg reporting that these companies – FanDuel, DraftKings and Fanatics Sportsbook – are beginning to dump money by the truckload into new Super PACs. Just this year, they have contributed $41 million to Win for America, according to new FEC filings, and show no sign of stopping there.* In our final domestic story, this week saw the implosion of leading California gubernatorial candidate, Rep. Eric Swalwell. Swalwell ultimately opted to resign his seat in Congress after it became clear that the Democratic and Republican House leadership was mulling a deal to expel him and flagrantly corrupt Democratic Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick along with two scandal-ridden GOP Reps., Tony Gonzales and Cory Mills. The fact that Swalwell's resignation was paired with that of Gonzales lends credence to the idea that some deal was worked out behind closed doors. Yet, deal or no, this leaves Cherfilus-McCormick and Mills in their seats despite general acknowledgment that they should be expelled, per the Hill. This constitutes congressional horsetrading at its most base.* Turning to international news, this week Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who has for months governed the country with a plurality in the House of Commons, has successfully secured a majority for his ruling Liberal Party. This majority was secured via three byelection victories, but more significantly, by five recent “floor crossings” – elected MPs switching parties to join the Liberals. Having secured a majority, Carney is now confident in his ability to stave off a no-confidence vote and will likely remain in power at least until the 2029 general election. Unfortunately, the New Democratic Party (NDP) saw improvement in their share of the vote in only one “riding” despite their new leadership. This just proves the party has a long, difficult climb back to relevance in Canadian politics. This from the CBC.* Looking Southward, this week, Peru held the first round of their presidential election. The top two vote getters will advance to a runoff, but who those candidates would be remained unclear for an agonizingly protracted period of time. Keiko Fujimori, daughter of the former Japanese-Peruvian dictator and a perennial far-right candidate herself, came in first with 17% of the vote. And at first, it seemed like the second slot would be taken by ultraconservative Rafael Lopez Aliaga. However, following days of vote counting, Aliaga moved down to third place, with the second place finisher proving to be Roberto Sanchez, a figure of the Peruvian Left and ally of ousted former President Pedro Castillo. Sanchez however is also allegedly allied with the Andean supremacist movement led by Antauro Humala in Peru. The Peruvian political system has been rocked by instability, churning through “eight presidents in the past 10 years, including four who were impeached,” per France 24. Castillo, the last democratically elected president, was sentenced to over 11 years in prison in 2025; if elected, Sanchez would likely pardon the former president as other left-wing Latin American leaders including Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum have urged. How long Sanchez, or for that matter Fujimori, might last in office is another question.* Finally, we turn to the United Kingdom where the dream of a new Leftist party – Your Party – is foundering. After a promising start, Your Party ultimately descended into infighting between the Grassroots Left faction, led by Zarah Sultana, and another faction, the Many, led by former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn. Your Party also chose to bar from participation any avowedly leftist organizations. These moves, alienating to the very constituencies most interested in backing the YP, paired with the meteoric rise of the Green Party under Zack Polanski and a threatened exodus by the Scottish YP segment, have rendered what could have been a substantial power in Parliament, pressing for concessions on issues if not achieving a majority itself, utterly toothless.

Llevan los peruanos unos diez años realizando un experimento político en vivo del que toda Hispanoamérica (y también España) debería aprender, pero para no reproducirlo. Este domingo han vuelto a las urnas en unas elecciones muy esperadas para elegir presidente, dos vicepresidentes, 130 diputados, 60 senadores y 5 representantes para el Parlamento Andino. Nótese que está incluido el Senado, una cámara eliminada en 1992 tras el autogolpe de Alberto Fujimori. En principio estas elecciones deberían aclarar el panorama y reencauzar la vida política del país, pero lo más probable es que no sea así. Para entender lo que está en juego hay que recordar de dónde viene Perú. La última década ha sido un larguísimo desfile de presidentes. Desde Ollanta Humala han pasado por la Casa de Pizarro ocho presidentes en diez años y ninguno ha conseguido terminar su mandato. Casi todos cayeron por una figura legal, la de la vacancia presidencial por incapacidad moral, una herramienta decimonónica convertida en arma arrojadiza entre el Ejecutivo y el Legislativo. Hoy cuatro expresidentes están de forma simultánea en el penal de Barbadillo: Pedro Castillo, Martín Vizcarra, Ollanta Humala y Alejandro Toledo. El episodio más sonado fue el de Pedro Castillo, aquel maestro rural con un vistoso sombrero que en diciembre de 2022 intentó disolver el Congreso por decreto mediante un autogolpe de Estado. Su sucesora, Dina Boluarte, gobernó tres años con una aprobación que llegó a desplomarse al 3% hasta ser destituida a finales del año pasado. Sobre ese terreno tan resbaladizo se han celebrado las elecciones. La oficina encargada de organizarlas, la ONPE, las ha definido como las más complejas de la historia, y razón no les falta. Se presentaron un total 35 candidaturas presidenciales para un electorado fragmentado hasta la atomización. La gran protagonista ha vuelto a ser Keiko Fujimori en su cuarto intento. Hija del expresidente, lleva dos décadas siendo el rostro visible del fujimorismo, ese movimiento que combina liberalismo económico con autoritarismo conservador y que cuenta con mucho arraigo en ciertas capas sociales. Ha perdido tres segundas vueltas consecutivas y su Fuerza Popular sigue siendo una de las pocas estructuras de partido organizadas que quedan en pie. Promete orden, mano dura contra la criminalidad y reformas económicas en la línea de Milei. La campaña giró sobre tres ejes: la inseguridad ciudadana, el deterioro económico y la corrupción. La jornada electoral ha sido muy accidentada. Se produjeron retrasos en la llegada de papeletas y hubo problemas en el voto en el extranjero. El director de la ONPE, de hecho, ha tenido que dimitir. Con el 92% escrutado, Keiko Fujimori va a la cabeza con un 17%. Le siguen, casi empatados, Roberto Sánchez de Juntos por el Perú con un 12%, y Rafael López Aliaga de Renovación Popular con otro 12%. Jorge Nieto queda cuarto con un 11%. Conviene leer estos números con perspectiva: 83 de cada cien peruanos votaron por otro candidato distinto al ganador. Los dos finalistas sumarán juntos apenas el 30% del voto. El próximo presidente llegará por puro rebote, con poca legitimidad de origen, condenado a gobernar con un Congreso atomizado y la espada de Damocles de la vacancia sobre su cabeza desde el primer día. La segunda vuelta del 7 de junio decidirá quién ocupa el cargo, si es que llega siquiera a un año sin que lo saquen de ahí.

9. Peru's Shift to the Right. Alejandro Peña Esclusa reports on Peru's election, where right-wing candidates Kiko Fujimori and Rafael Lopez Aliaga are leading. This trend suggests a continental shift away from the pink tide and toward pro-Western governments.1945 PERU
A la espera de los resultados definitivos de la jornada electoral extendida en Perú, Keiko Fujimori encabeza las preferencias, mientras Rafael López Aliaga se mantiene en segundo lugar. La fragmentación del voto obligaría a ir a una segunda vuelta.

Perú vuelve a las urnas en medio de una de las mayores crisis políticas de su historia reciente. Ocho presidentes en una década no solo reflejan inestabilidad, sino también una fractura profunda entre el poder político y la ciudadanía.En este episodio, analizamos cómo el país llegó a este punto, quiénes lideran la contienda electoral y por qué ningún candidato logra consolidar una mayoría clara. Con nombres como Keiko Fujimori, Rafael López Aliaga o Verónika Mendoza en carrera, el escenario electoral se perfila tan fragmentado como impredecible.Más allá de los candidatos, exploramos el verdadero trasfondo: una opinión pública marcada por el desencanto, el rechazo a la clase política tradicional y la constante búsqueda de alternativas fuera del sistema. Para entender este panorama electoral peruano nos acompañó Milagros Campos. Abogada, magíster y doctoranda en ciencia política por la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Especializada en temas constitucionales y parlamentarios con una extensa experiencia docente. Con su pedagogía trataremos de descifrar esta encrucijada electoral: ¿puede un sistema tan fragmentado, con una ciudadanía desencantada y liderazgos débiles, producir la estabilidad que el país demanda, o esta década de turbulencia se prolongará aún más?
¿López Aliaga, Nieto o Keiko? ¿Carlos Álvarez o Roberto Sánchez? ¿Qué tan bien (o mal) lo hicieron los candidatos en el debate? ¿Tiene sentido la campaña en segunda vuelta antes de saber quién llega? ¿Pixar sigue dando cátedra con Hoppers o ya perdió el toque? ¿La nueva serie de Harry Potter merecía nacer? ¿Y qué tiene Greta Gerwig preparado para Narnia? Tal vez Fleabag siga siendo imbatible o Sex and the City es un producto de otro tiempo. Quizás encontremos la respuesta a estas y otras preguntas en el programa de hoy, donde Jonathan, Jakeline y Diego conversan sobre nada en particular, es decir, full Langoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Los peruanos van a las urnas el próximo 12 de abril tras una campaña marcada por la crisis de seguridad y la institucional. Dos populistas de derechas, Keiko Fujimori y Rafael López Aliaga, dominan las encuestas en una carrera con un largo número de aspirantes, varios de los cuales están marcados por antecedentes de condenas, irregularidades o sombras de corrupción. Las elecciones en Perú del próximo 12 de abril están marcadas por una larga lista de propuestas populistas para atajar la crisis de seguridad que vive el país: cárceles rodeadas de víboras, premios por matar criminales o comandos de aniquilamiento. Analizamos el contexto y los principales candidatos en un país con un historial negro donde colgarse la banda presidencial puede ser sinónimo de ir a la cárcel vistos los antecedentes.

The global ship recycling market saw another shift in Week 7 of 2026 as key fundamentals moved in different directions across the sub-continent. The Baltic Dry Index declined by 0.6 percent, mainly due to weaker Capesize and Panamax performance, while Supramax rates improved. Oil prices held near USD 62.8 per barrel as markets continued to monitor U.S. and Iran tensions. In this week's episode, Ingrid and Henning discuss how the U.S. Dollar strengthened against most recycling nation currencies, with India being the exception as the Rupee improved to around INR 90.6. Steel plate prices reversed course in India, falling nearly USD 10 per ton, while Pakistan maintained the strongest fundamentals in the region with plate prices holding near USD 594 per ton. Bangladesh reached a political milestone as the BNP secured a more than two-thirds majority in the general elections. The result is expected to support long-delayed infrastructure projects and could improve domestic steel demand in the months ahead. The country also adopted the International Ready for Recycling Certificate framework, aligning with regional compliance requirements under the Hong Kong Convention. Steel plate prices in Bangladesh remained flat near USD 494 per ton, while the Taka weakened slightly. Pakistan continued to lead pricing tables, supported by firm steel levels, stable currency performance near PKR 279.6, and rising anchorage activity totaling nearly 30,000 LDT across multiple bulk carriers. India's anchorage activity also remained active with more than 47,000 LDT present, despite softer steel prices. Turkey remained quiet, with limited activity in Aliaga and the Lira weakening toward TRY 44. This episode covers demolition pricing direction, steel and currency movements, port activity in Alang, Chattogram, and Gadani, and the ongoing shortage of recycling candidates. The discussion is intended for shipowners, cash buyers, recyclers, brokers, and maritime professionals following developments in the global demolition market
The global ship recycling market saw another sharp shift this week as the U.S. dollar weakened across nearly all recycling destinations, providing fresh support to buyer sentiment across the sub-continent. Steel fundamentals also strengthened significantly, with India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh reporting notable weekly jumps in local steel plate prices. In this week's ship recycling market podcast, Ingrid and Henning break down the latest movements in the Baltic Dry Index, oil prices falling below sixty-two U.S. dollars per barrel, and how improving domestic fundamentals are reshaping pricing expectations across the Indian sub-continent. Pakistan continues to lead the market, supported by firm steel levels, improving currency performance, and renewed demand for dry bulk candidates. Bangladesh re-enters the spotlight as Chattogram activity increases, though uncertainty remains high with national elections approaching mid-February. India shows stronger footing as steel prices rebound and the Indian Rupee strengthens, while Turkey remains subdued, with Aliaga activity limited and the Turkish Lira continuing its gradual decline. This episode also highlights the ongoing shortage of recycling candidates, increased interest in older handy bulkers and LNG units, and the evolving balance of supply and demand shaping demolition pricing into early 2026. Designed for shipowners, cash buyers, recyclers, brokers, financiers, and maritime professionals tracking global demolition markets, this weekly discussion covers pricing direction, market sentiment, HKC compliance developments, and the key risks and opportunities currently shaping the ship recycling landscape.
