The Demonic Possession of David Glatzel and Arne Johnson This week we dive into one of the most terrifying possession cases in American history - the haunting of the Glatzel family in 1980s Connecticut. When the family moved into what seemed like an innocent rental home in Brookfield, they had no idea they were stepping into a nightmare that would tear their lives apart. It all began when 11-year-old David was violently pushed by an unseen force while cleaning his new bedroom, coming face-to-face with a grotesque demonic entity with coal-black eyes and melting skin. What followed were months of escalating supernatural terror - mysterious whispers, vanishing medicine bottles, unexplained scratches appearing on David's body, and the boy speaking in foreign tongues while contorting his body in impossible ways. The situation reached a breaking point when renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called in, bringing multiple priests to perform what would become a series of harrowing exorcisms. But during the final ritual, David's sister's boyfriend Arne Johnson made a fateful decision that would change everything - he challenged the demon to take him instead of the boy. Months later, this act of apparent heroism would lead to the first recorded homicide in Brookfield's history and result in the first-ever legal defense of "demonic possession" in an American courtroom - infamously becoming "the devil made me do it."

Welcome back to another thought-provoking episode of Tank Talks! In this episode, Matt Cohen and John Ruffolo cut through the noise to unpack the latest economic headlines and policy shifts reshaping North America's business landscape. From Canada's surprise repeal of the Digital Services Tax to Brookfield's launch of an evergreen private equity fund, this episode dives deep into the forces driving change in trade, finance, and innovation.Will Canada's late-stage policy reversal strengthen its position in U.S. trade talks? Are evergreen funds the next big wave in private equity? And how will digital-only banks and stablecoins reshape the future of finance? Tune in for all that and more!Canada's Digital Services Tax Repealed at the 11th Hour (00:14)Just hours before the June 30th collection date, Canada repealed its controversial 3% digital services tax to clear the runway for renewed trade negotiations with the U.S. Matt and John unpack the political optics, the timing missteps, and why this repeal might've come too late to score real leverage in the upcoming Carney-Trump summit.Trade Tensions and a Pivot Away from U.S. Exports (02:50)With U.S. tariffs still biting Canadian industries like steel, aluminum, and autos, exports to non-U.S. markets jumped 5.7% in May. John analyzes the long-term risks and what a 10% tariff “compromise” could mean for Canadian trade policy moving forward.Brookfield's Evergreen Fund: Liquidity vs. Strategy (06:37)Brookfield's launch of a new evergreen private equity fund is raising eyebrows. These liquid investment vehicles are tailored for high-net-worth investors, but could they undermine Brookfield's traditional closed-end funds? Matt and John discuss the tradeoffs and potential disruption to institutional capital models.Stablecoins, Erebor & The Future of Banking (10:53)With the launch of Erebor, a new U.S. digital-only bank backed by Palmer Luckey, Peter Thiel, and Joe Lonsdale, the open banking revolution is heating up. But will Canada get left behind amid regulatory hesitations? The duo explores how stablecoins and crypto-native banks are reshaping the financial ecosystem.The “Big Beautiful Bill”: Trillions in U.S. Spending (13:56)At nearly 1,000 pages and $4.85 trillion, the latest U.S. tax and spending package is a behemoth. John calls out some of the more controversial provisions, like Section 899, a “revenge tax” aimed at foreign investors, and weighs in on what this means for the U.S. deficit and global investment climate.Figma Files to Go Public: A Product-Led Rocketship with a Caveat (16:49)Figma's S-1 filing reveals eye-popping growth: $750M in 2024 revenue, 91% gross margins, and 90% of the Fortune 500 on board. But one number raised eyebrows, its definition of net revenue retention. Is the 132% figure misleading? Matt and John dissect the metrics and what investors need to know.Anthropic & OpenAI's Revenue Explosion (19:39)AI darlings Anthropic and OpenAI are shattering expectations, with annualized revenues of $4B and $10B, respectively. What's fueling this growth, and is it sustainable? Matt and John assess the trajectory and strategic implications for the broader AI race.Meta's Talent War: $300M Signing Bonuses & AI Domination (20:30)Meta's aggressive push into AI includes poaching top OpenAI talent with eye-watering offers reportedly reaching $300M. Is this visionary investing, or panic-mode recruiting? The conversation digs into the implications of Meta's superintelligence ambitions and the high-stakes battle for AI supremacy.Microsoft Layoffs: AI Efficiency or Budget Strategy? (22:52)With Microsoft cutting 9,000 jobs, questions swirl around whether AI-driven efficiencies or strategic capital reallocation are the real drivers.

Additionally, please visit this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and additional company and stock information. I have a great crop of 13 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- Article 1: Best Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy Before They Soar The first article I'm covering is titled Best Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy Before They Soar. It was found on industryleadersmagazine.com and is by Christy Gren. Here is some of what she says about her stock picks. “1. NextEra Energy (NEE): The Titan of Clean Utility NextEra Energy is the largest producer of wind and solar energy in the world. With its regulated utility, Florida Power & Light, and a massive renewable portfolio, it's often viewed as the safest bet in clean energy. Its long track record of dividend growth and strong balance sheet make it ideal for long-term investors… A mix of regulated revenue and renewable expansion gives NextEra Energy both stability and upside—a rare combination in energy. 2. Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP): Global Diversification at Scale With operations spanning North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, Brookfield provides broad access to hydro, wind, solar, and energy storage. As one of the largest pure-play renewable stocks to invest in, its long-term contracts and conservative financials make it a wealth-building machine… Geographic and technological diversification cushions against regulatory and market risk, offering solid growth and income. 3. Enphase Energy (ENPH): Dominating Solar Tech Enphase isn't building solar panels, it's redefining how they work. Known for its cutting-edge microinverters and energy management systems, Enphase benefits directly from residential solar growth and rising energy storage adoption… Technology leaders in fast-growing niches often outperform. Enphase is a pure play on smarter, more efficient solar power. 4. First Solar (FSLR): America's Solar Manufacturer While many solar companies outsource manufacturing, First Solar produces its panels in the U.S., making it a key beneficiary of domestic subsidies and reshoring trends. Its cadmium telluride technology offers cost and performance advantages over traditional silicon-based panels… Vertical integration and domestic production give First Solar a geopolitical edge in a competitive global market. 5. Plug Power (PLUG): Hydrogen's Bold Bet Plug Power is a leader in hydrogen fuel cell technology for vehicles, industry, and power generation. Though not yet profitable, its partnerships with Amazon, Walmart, and global logistics players show real market traction… High-risk, high-reward plays like Plug Power can deliver outsized returns if you're patient and can handle volatility. 6. Tesla (TSLA): More Than Just EVs While known for electric cars, Tesla's energy division is growing fast. Its solar roofs, Powerwall batteries, and massive grid-scale storage projects position it as a holistic clean energy provider, not just a car company… Disruption comes from companies that integrate hardware, software, and infrastructure. Tesla's renewable arm could be its next trillion-dollar story. 7. Clearway Energy (CWEN): Clean Power, Reliable Dividends Clearway owns a mix of solar and wind farms across the U.S., with long-term contracts that ensure predictable income. Its focus on dividend-paying renewable assets makes it ideal for conservative investors looking for income and impact… Not every green investment has to be high-growth. Clearway offers stability and passive income in a volatile market. 8. Albemarle Corporation (ALB): Powering the Battery Boom Albemarle is a leading lithium producer, supplying the battery materials that power electric vehicles and grid storage. As the backbone of clean tech, lithium demand is projected to surge in the coming decades.” Sometimes the best renewable energy stocks for growth aren't utility companies, they're the suppliers fueling the ecosystem.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Article 2: Looking to Gamble on Hard-Hit Solar Stocks? This Is the Top-Rated Ticker Now My second article continues the renewable energy theme. It's titled Looking to Gamble on Hard-Hit Solar Stocks? This Is the Top-Rated Ticker Now. The story was found on finance.yahoo.com and is by Pathikrit Bose. Here are some of his thoughts about his stock pick. “If President Donald Trump's ‘Big Beautiful Bill' passes, it would not be so beautiful for companies in the solar industry. This reality was evident in the meltdown that solar stocks witnessed on news that the Senate version of the bill looks to fully phase out both solar and wind power tax incentives by 2028. So, where does that leave First Solar, whose shares have corrected by nearly 18% already this year? In a pretty good place, if analysts are to be believed. First Solar (FSLR) First Solar specializes in large-scale utility solar projects and integrated photovoltaic (PV) systems. The company designs, manufactures, and sells CdTe thin-film photovoltaic modules and is the only major solar manufacturer headquartered and producing in the U.S. Its market cap currently stands at $15.4 billion, making it one of the largest companies in the industry. Now, there are some valid reasons for First Solar stock's decline with the ‘Big Beautiful Bill'… With such legislation pending, investors fear that developers may cancel or delay new solar installations, shrinking First Solar's total addressable market. Consequently, this may hurt project bookings and revenue visibility for First Solar. However, I reckon First Solar's correction has been overdone, and projections about its downturn extending further are misplaced. Why? Let's have a closer look. First Solar's Financials Are Not That Worrisome First Solar has had a tough time in recent quarters as its earnings have missed estimates, with the latest quarter even seeing the company's earnings witness a yearly decline. However, its net sales did surpass the Street estimates and rose on an annual basis, accompanied by a decrease in short-term debt… Management remains confident about the company's long-term prospects based on its ‘Made in USA' strategy with CEO Mark Widmar commenting, ‘Despite the near-term challenges presented by the new tariff regime, we believe that the long-term outlook for solar demand, particularly in our core U.S. market, remains strong, and that First Solar remains well-positioned to serve this demand. This belief is based on the unique profile of First Solar compared to its peers, as America's largest, and most established solar module manufacturer, and the country's only fully vertically integrated producer, our significant network of domestic supply chain vendors, and our proprietary CadTel-based semiconductor.' Shining Light in a Growing Industry First Solar appears poised to win the battle for solar industry dominance for a few reasons. First is its unique CdTe thin-film solar technology, which gives the company a distinct advantage by insulating its supply chain from the risks associated with China-dependent crystalline silicon. With roughly 95% of solar modules globally based on crystalline silicon, First Solar stands out as the only large-scale solar manufacturer with international reach using cadmium telluride technology… Another key strength is its strong domestic manufacturing base… The surge in artificial intelligence-driven infrastructure further plays to First Solar's strengths… First Solar's product line, especially its utility-scale thin-film modules, is particularly suited to meet the reliability and performance requirements of this growing segment… Analyst Opinions on First Solar Stock Analysts remain bullish on First Solar stock, assigning it a rating of ‘Strong Buy' with a mean target price of $211.81. This denotes upside potential of about 45.5% from current levels. Out of 31 analysts covering the stock, 25 have a ‘Strong Buy' rating, two have a ‘Moderate Buy' rating, three have a ‘Hold' rating, and one has a ‘Strong Sell' rating.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Article 3: World's Most Sustainable Companies of 2025 Now, this next article is a great ranking of companies. It's titled World's Most Sustainable Companies of 2025 and found on time.com. The introduction is by TIME Staff. Here are some brief quotes from the article. “Statista and TIME have joined forces to identify the World's Most Sustainable Companies of 2025, aiming to highlight corporate responsibility and promote sustainable practices… The ranking process began with a comprehensive selection from over 5,000 of the world's largest and most influential companies, considering factors such as revenue, market capitalization, and public prominence… The first step excluded companies involved in non-sustainable industries like fossil fuels or deforestation. Additionally, companies appearing on negative lists related to sustainability issues, such as those identified as carbon majors or associated with environmental catastrophes, were automatically disqualified… The second step involved assessing companies based on external sustainability ratings and commitments from reputable organizations. Key criteria included CDP ratings, adherence to the UN Global Compact, alignment with the Science Based Targets initiative (near-term and long-term), inclusion in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook, participation in the UNFCCC Race to Zero campaign, and MSCI ESG & SRI evaluations… The final step involved researching various environmental and social Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) from companies' Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) reports. See the full list of companies here.” End quotes. Note: the top 5 companies in the ranking are Schneider Electric (France), Telefónica (Spain), Brambles (Australia), Temenos (Switzerland), and Moncler (Italy). Interestingly, none of these top companies are from the USA. ------------------------------------------------------------- Article 4: These 50 Canadian corporations are carving out a more sustainable future My final article is titled These 50 Canadian corporations are carving out a more sustainable future. It's found on corporateknights.com, and the introduction is by Rick Spence. Though this will mainly interest Canadians, many companies cited might interest ethical and sustainable investors globally. Here is some of what Mr. Spence says in his piece. “The Best 50 ranking was first developed back in 2002 to track the sustainability journeys of Canada's most environmentally and socially conscious companies. This year's list shows that corporate Canada's ethical vanguard is not only actively reducing its carbon footprint, but finding new and creative ways to connect with their customers, create fairer workplaces and develop more prosperous and resilient communities… Yes, greenwashing and window-dressing still dominate the business landscape, but rankings like the Best 50 prove that progress is possible. Even the best companies have flaws. But on the whole, this list demonstrates that many Canadian firms are preparing themselves for increasing change and creating value by prioritizing transparency, innovation and action.” End quotes. Note: the top 5 companies in the ranking are Boralex Inc. (BLX.TO), Stantec Inc. (STN.TO), Innergex Renewable Energy Inc. (INE.TO), The Co-operators (private), and the Royal Canadian Mint (government-owned). ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest from around the world for ethical and sustainable investors 1.

Welcome to another fact vs. film episode where we look at the true story of a haunting and compare it with the “based on a true story” film version. For this one, we'll tackle another film from the Ed and Lorraine Warren inspired Conjuring universe: the 2021 The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. We'll evaluate the terrifying scenes from the movie compared to eyewitness accounts and the Warrens' own claims. What really happened in that Brookfield, Connecticut household? How much of the story was spiritual warfare, and how much was legal strategy, mental illness, or media frenzy? As always, the real story is more chilling than you'd expect.Book: The Devil in Connecticut by Gerald BrittleTV Show: The Demon Murder CaseA Haunting: Where Demons DwellThe True Story Behind the Netflix Documentary The Devil on TrialWikipedia: Trial of Arne Cheyenne JohnsonNetflix: The Devil on Trial You can stream The Devil Made Me Do It on HBO MaxYou can also use this link to text us your story :)If you have an experience, story, or anything else you'd like to share with us, you can email us at Opeaghost@gmail.com You can also follow us on Instagram, Join our Facebook group : Ope, A Ghost, or Follow us on YoutubeToodles!

The Brookfield contingent are delighted with the attendance at Open Farm Sunday. It's great to get such support from the community. Stella's impressed with Pip's dairy presentation – they agree it's important for farms to keep doing this. Even Josh's ‘silage sniffing' attraction has a healthy queue. They spot some over-enthusiastic youngsters on the yard but it's nothing they can't handle. They worry that quiet David's rattled, but he explains he was just contemplating the four generations he sees – with Rosie as the future. Pip agrees. She's heard at least two kids today talking about wanting to go into farming. David acknowledges days like today make it all worthwhile, even though he moans now and again. Pip hears that attendance is well down at Bridge Farm, and David has an idea. He grabs a megaphone and delivers a heartfelt speech about how one unfortunate event can blight a farm. Bridge Farm is eerily quiet. Helen's hopes that today would provide an opportunity to show they've bounced back from February's sewage leak seemed to be dashed. They distract themselves with talk of Peggy's funeral, and the cricket. Tony's touched that Henry's decided to support the farm today rather than play. It's just a shame it's so quiet. A few turn up for the goat gymkhana but it's not enough. When Helen hears how busy Brookfield is they're forced to admit it's going to be hard to shake off the spectre of the sewage incident. They're about to pack up when there's a sudden rush of visitors. Nonplussed Tony declares it a miracle.

Soon after the Liberal election victory, entities associated with Prime Minister Mark Carney's previous company, Brookfield Asset Management, sought his help. Initial skepticism towards proportional tariffs by business leaders like Shopify's Tobi Lutke and Rumble's Chris Pavlovski has proven correct now that the Carney government has exempted most U.S. goods from its levies.

It was 45-years ago today that Pac-Man made its debut in Japan... Doc Mack, Owner of Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield joins Rob Hart on the WBBM Noon Business Hour to discuss...
This week, we look beyond the physical infrastructure supporting our lives to the owners taking over that infrastructure: asset managers. Brett Christophers, an author, professor, and economic geographer at Uppsala University in Sweden, joins me to explore the troubling transformation of infrastructure ownership in today's economy. From housing to energy to water, massive asset management firms like Blackstone and Brookfield have positioned themselves more and more between citizens and essential services, extracting wealth while taking minimal risk. Christophers explains how this shift from public to private control has reshaped our relationship with everyday infrastructure, particularly as we attempt to transform our energy supplies. He argues that the profit-driven approach of these financial giants is at odds with the public good, creating a system where even as things like renewable technology get cheaper, their deployment slows due to insufficient returns for investors.
When it comes to understanding real estate cycles, few voices carry as much weight as Prof. Glenn Mueller, of Denver University. With over 40 years in the real estate industry and more than three decades of publishing the Market Cycle Monitor – used by institutional investors, developers, and academics alike – his data-driven framework is one of the most respected in commercial real estate. In my conversation with Prof. Mueller, he shared where each property type stands today, what signals matter most, and how CRE professionals should be thinking about the road ahead. Market Cycle: Where We Are Now Most Property Sectors Still in Growth Phase Despite headlines, the underlying fundamentals in many sectors are still solid. Industrial and retail are at or near peak occupancy, with retail benefiting from a decade of underbuilding. Hotels and some apartments are in expansion phases, while office remains in recession. Office: Structural Downshift, Not Just a Cycle Post-COVID remote work has fundamentally reshaped office demand. Class A in prime markets (e.g., NYC) is thriving; B/C assets and suburban offices are struggling. Adaptive reuse (e.g., office-to-resi conversions) is being explored but not yet widespread. Apartments: Strong Demand, But Misaligned Supply There's a 6.5 million unit housing shortfall, yet high-end, urban supply has overshot demand. Affordable and workforce housing remain undersupplied and present the most attractive opportunities. What CRE Pros Should Track Employment > GDP Mueller emphasizes employment growth as the single most reliable predictor of real estate demand. Despite economic noise, job growth remains positive, indicating continued underlying support for real estate fundamentals. Occupancy Drives Rent, Not Price Mueller's cycle model is based on physical occupancy, not asset pricing. Price movements are driven by capital flows, but true performance comes from rent and income growth – especially critical in today's higher-rate environment. Supply Trends by Sector Retail: Nationally at peak occupancy. Almost all new space is pre-leased. Over a decade of cautious development has created a tight market. Industrial: Slight oversupply after a COVID-era building spree but expected to correct by 2026. Multifamily: Select markets are overbuilt (e.g., downtown Class A), but suburbs and affordable housing show structural undersupply. Hotels: Bifurcated; leisure and conference travel rebounding; business travel still lagging. Capital Markets Insights Prices Are Down, and May Not Drop Further Higher interest rates have cooled pricing, but a wave of dry powder is still waiting. Institutional investors are sitting on capital and may deploy if prices stabilize rather than fall further. Cap Rates Are Rising – But Slowly Cap rates haven't adjusted upward as fast as borrowing costs, leading to negative leverage. Cash buyers dominate today's market. Defaults Without Distress? High-profile institutional owners (e.g., Brookfield) are handing back keys on offices; a sign of strategic exit, not systemic distress. Geopolitics and Macro Outlook Tariffs and Reshoring Could Reshape Demand Mueller sees Trump's industrial policy (tariffs, reshoring) as a potential long-term positive for U.S. real estate, especially industrial. Global Capital Still Engaged, But Cautious Foreign investors remain active, but currency shifts and geopolitical risk are reshaping cross-border flows. Bottom Line for CRE Sponsors Know Your Local Cycle – Even in national downturns, markets like Norfolk, VA, Honolulu, HI, and Riverside, CA, are peaking. Prioritize Income Stability – Focus on tenants who weathered COVID and economic shocks. Watch Employment, Not Noise – Labor market data remains the clearest leading indicator for demand. Cash is King (for now) – With interest rates high and spreads compressed, unlevered buyers have the advantage. Position for Affordability – Whether in retail or multifamily, demand is strongest at the middle and lower price tiers. I'm sure you'll find Glenn's insights as valuable as I did – and be sure to watch the episode as he guides us through slides of his latest report. As always, the goal is to help you make better-informed investment decisions by understanding where we are – and where we might be headed. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

Lilian's finding lots of poignant reminders of Peggy while sorting through a box of her things. Tony doesn't understand how old shopping lists can evoke fond memories, but Lilian sees each of them as telling a story. Lilian points out that Tony's surrounded by his children and grandchildren, whereas hers are not only far away, but don't need her like Peggy did. She feels lost without her mum. When Henry arrives he's intrigued by a glass dolphin. Lilian declares he can keep it. Henry's in charge of the goats for Open Farm Sunday – he's planning on buying some leather halters for them when he gets his money. Tony asks what money he's expecting and Henry thinks it's from Peggy. Tony thinks Henry shouldn't be talking about inheritance money, but Lilian disagrees. It's only natural Henry should speculate. Besides, he's missing his great grandma as much as she is. Tony apologises for snapping at Henry; he thinks they would all benefit from a family outing. At Brookfield Rex wonders how David is after their ordeal at the abattoir. Pip maintains her dad's his usual grumpy, stoical self, unlike Rex, who proved himself strong, brave and capable. Pip's puzzled when Rex appears to defend Rochelle. He then questions what he's doing with his life, wishing it had worked out differently. Rex doesn't want to end up old and resentful, mulling over regrets. Later David surprises Pip by suggesting they need to do a major security audit at Brookfield, admitting he'd prefer it if they didn't do Open Farm Sunday at all.

Elizabeth tells David at Brookfield about a nightmare in which she was desperately trying to stop David wreaking bloody vengeance with a broken bottle while trapped on a cruise ship. David admits he's had nightmares about the abattoir protest too, wondering if he should have done more. They discuss Lower Loxley's plans for VE Day and Ruth's attempts to contact Reginald Dodge, wartime hero. Talk turns to Jill's memories of the war, David suspecting Phil had a crush on Wanda, the Brookfield Land Girl. They also discuss the slideshow Pat's putting together with Peggy. Later, David surprises Elizabeth with news that they've tracked down ‘Dodgy' (Reginald) through his granddaughter, who's emailed Ruth a potted life history. David suggests printing it out and putting it on display at Lower Loxley.At the Magistrate's Court, Rochelle's grateful to be given bail – and she won't be tagged, as long as she sticks to her bail conditions. Mick and Joy are grateful to Usha too, before Joy hands over a bag of clothes and other essentials. Apologetic Rochelle gives Joy a heartfelt hug, then leaves with Mick for the bail address he's arranged with a friend. On the way, Rochelle is relieved to hear Joy isn't angry with her and tells Mick she loves Joy, despite everything. Back at Beechwood, Joy confesses she blames herself for damaging Rochelle. Usha admires Rochelle's passion and determination, and thinks she never really intended to harm anyone. Usha then encourages Joy to stay and help with VE Day, despite the temptation to run away. Joy agrees, because running away never works.

Brookfield CEO Bruce Flatt reveals the investment philosophy behind building one of the world's largest alternative asset managers with over a trillion dollars under management. At the core of Brookfield's strategy is a disciplined focus on downside protection that has delivered 19% annualized returns over 30 years. Flatt identifies three major trends driving their investments: digitalization (including AI infrastructure), global energy transition, and reindustrialization as supply chains shift. The conversation explores Brookfield's approach to risk management, their expansion into insurance, and their meritocratic culture. When Shane presses for clarity on Brookfield's complex corporate structure, Flatt provides rare insights into how the organization's design creates both operational flexibility and investment opportunities. What separates Brookfield from competitors? Patient capital: the discipline to wait for extraordinary opportunities and the financial strength to act when others can't. If you want to understand how the smartest capital allocators think and what it takes to build something enduring, this episode is essential listening.
