Today's Post - https://bahnsen.co/3VhbwZZ Unveiling the Economic Impact and Symbolism of 9/11 In this episode of Dividend Cafe, airing on September 12, David L. Bahnsen delves into a unique discussion on the economic intentions behind the 9/11 attacks, emphasizing the attackers' desire to undermine American financial markets by targeting the World Trade Center. The episode explores the symbolic and literal significance of the attacks, draws on historical quotes from Osama Bin Laden and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and highlights America's resilience and the importance of defending robust capital markets. Key points include the historical context of the World Trade Center, the immediate financial aftermath of the attacks, and the enduring strength of America's economic system. David also ties this discussion into the broader narrative of American exceptionalism and the philosophical importance of free enterprise. 00:00 Introduction and Theme Announcement 00:44 Reflecting on 9/11's Economic Impact 04:33 Historical Context of the World Trade Center 05:58 Financial Institutions in the World Trade Center 08:37 The Jihadist Economic Agenda 14:35 Resilience of American Financial Markets 17:33 American Exceptionalism and Capital Markets 21:50 Conclusion and Gratitude Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

In this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, with Chad Sowash sipping ouzo on a Greek beach, Joel Cheesman and guest J.T. O'Donnell dish out spicy takes on the workforce with their trademark snark. They kick off with a riff on empathy—or lack thereof—in today's rage-fueled world, joking that community resilience is basically folks bonding over Wi-Fi outages. Corporate layoffs get a roasting, with job security shakier than a Jenga tower at a frat party, and fractional employment pitched as the future for those who love working three jobs to afford one coffee. OpenAI's shiny new job platform sparks eye-rolls, as they dunk on job boards so outdated they might as well be faxing resumes. AI's role in job matching gets a nod, though they quip it's less “perfect match” and more “swipe left on bad fits.” Labor market woes are dissected, with job seekers facing hurdles higher than a toddler's tantrum, and generational gripes about work sound like Boomers and Zoomers arguing over who gets the last slice of avocado toast. Economic data? They trust it about as much as a used car salesman's handshake. Indeed and LinkedIn's AI tools get a playful cage match comparison, while Shaker and Radancy's acquisition drama is served with a side of corporate soap opera. They wrap up cackling about autonomous vehicles, wondering if truck drivers will soon be replaced by robots who honk worse than your uncle at a tailgate.

With markets hitting new all-time highs and forward earnings estimates still coming in strong, Garrett Melson says there might be signs of cooling but not collapsing. He discusses current market risks including the state of the labor market, inflation levels and the A.I. spending surge fueling a lot of the current rally. He says the economy is "innocent until proven guilty" and says any acceleration of jobs losses would be a red flag. Garrett does map out the reasons for and against a 50bps cut at the September FOMC meeting, but believes a 25bps is most likely.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

CNN's Victor Blackwell hosted a panel last week to discuss the canary in the coal mine - a notable rise in unemployment among not only black Americans, but black women. On that panel: Black Voters Matter Fund co-founder LaTosha Brown, former GOP Georgia Senate candidate Stephanie Donegan, and Capital B national editor Dalila Paul. First, let's applaud that CNN fielded an all-black and female panel to discuss an issue impacting black women. You'd think it obvious to do that, but cable TV news isn't usually good at that.Still it was Donegan, the former GOP candidate, who leaned into tropes like 'affirmative action' and 'DEI' placing black women in positions, saying "ultimately a lot of the hiring, I feel that's happened within the federal government, was to check boxes for DEI."Notice she said "I feel ...;" not that she had evidence or data. Just "I feel ..."On with me to discuss her remarks and all the negative impacts of the second Trump presidency impacting black women is - yay me! - a black woman. Shavonda Miles is CEO at Vona Monet Consulting, in Atlanta. ------I'm beyond excited that Texas state House Representative James Talarico has announced his Senate run, but first Texas Democrats will have to decide between he and Collin Allred, someone else I'm a huge fan of. A shame we can't have both (yet, anyway) represent that state but hear Talarico's message and tell me it doesn't give you goosebumps (or 'white Obama' vibes). ------Georgian Lisa Cook's seat on the Fed Board is still hers, according to a federal judge. That stability, along with already-lowering mortgage rates should mean good news next week for the housing market, despite the slowing economy. ------The ICE raid on the southeast Georgia Hyundai Metaplant has put strains on US-South Korean and Georgia-South Korean relations, and Korean-Americans here are deeply concerned, themselves. ------Lastly, Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't excited about any of the GOP candidates running for Governor here or the US Senate seat now occupied by Jon Ossoff - mostly because she isn't one of the candidates (my opinion), but is this a sign of weakness on the cohesiveness on the right?

Australia in anti-immigration marches.At the heart of what organisers called the 'March for Australia' rallies was a call to end "mass migration", which protesters claimed is to blame for issues like the housing crisis and rise in cost of living. Experts say a paradox exists in the anti-immigration ideas put forward at these rallies: the very people protesters want fewer of are the ones propping up the nation's economy, workforce, and future. - На вихідних тисячі людей вийшли на антиімміґраційні марші по всій Австралії. В основі акцій, які організатори назвали "Марш за Австралію", був заклик припинити "масову міґрацію", яка, на думку протестувальників, є причиною таких проблем, як житлова криза і зростання вартості життя. Експерти кажуть, що в антиімміґраційних ідеях, висунутих на цих мітинґах, існує парадокс: саме ті люди, яких протестувальники хочуть бачити менше, є тими, хто підтримує економіку, робочу силу і майбутнє країни...

It's easy to forget how something as simple as a pair of shoes can change a life. But for vulnerable children around the world, shoes mean protection, dignity, and the chance to dream.Today, we'll hear how Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls is meeting this need with the love of Christ. Shawn Spurrier joins us to share the incredible impact that is being made all around the world, one pair of shoes at a time.Shawn Spurrier is the Director of Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls at Buckner International, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Heart of Buckner InternationalFounded in Dallas, Texas, Buckner International has been serving vulnerable children, families, and seniors for more than 146 years. Their mission is clear: to follow the example of Jesus by serving the most vulnerable in every phase of life. From foster care and adoption to family-strengthening programs and senior care, Buckner demonstrates Christ's love in tangible ways.The Shoes for Orphan Souls initiative began 25 years ago in Dallas as a small effort to provide children in orphanages with something they lacked: their own pair of shoes. Many had to borrow communal shoes from a basket just to attend school.Since then, the ministry has distributed more than 5 million pairs of shoes in 86 countries. These shoes do more than protect feet—they open doors to health, education, dignity, and the hope of Christ.Why Shoes MatterA new pair of shoes provides more than comfort:Health Protection – In many regions, shoes prevent devastating illnesses like hookworm or podoconiosis.Access to Education – In many countries, schools require shoes as part of their uniform, making footwear a key factor in attending class.Economic Stability – Protecting children from illness reduces financial strain on families already in vulnerable situations.Hope and Dignity – Every pair is delivered with prayer, encouragement, and the gospel, often through partnerships with local churches.Stories of TransformationShawn shared two moving stories that reveal the ministry's impact:Romina in Mexico – A seven-year-old girl was overwhelmed with tears when she realized someone cared enough to give her a pair of shoes. That moment reminded Sean why this work matters—it's a tangible expression of Christ's love. Dulce in Guatemala – An eight-year-old girl received pink-and-white shoes so she could attend school. That simple gift opened the door for her family to receive housing, literacy training for her mother, and ultimately, salvation and discipleship for her father.A small act of generosity became the seed of a transformed family story.Your Opportunity to GiveThis month, we're partnering with Buckner to put shoes on the feet of 1,000 children worldwide. Each pair represents health, education, dignity, and an opportunity for children and families to hear the gospel.$15 provides a pair of shoes.$150 provides shoes for 10 children.You can be part of this life-changing work by visiting GiveShoesToday.org. Together, we can share the love of Christ one pair of shoes at a time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm retiring and turning 65 in February. Right now, I'm covered by my employer's health insurance, but I'm running into issues with prescription coverage. Should I sign up for Medicare now, keep my employer insurance as primary, and then wait until my younger wife becomes eligible for Medicare?I've managed to pay off all my credit card debt, but now my mortgage company has started foreclosure proceedings. They're demanding $2,160, and I'm not sure how to handle it. The FDIC says they shouldn't be taking this action, but I haven't received any formal notification yet.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Buckner Shoes for Orphan SoulsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Interview with Luis Azevedo, Chairman & CEO of Bravo Mining Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/bravo-mining-tsxvbrvo-triple-growth-in-resources-accelerates-the-next-phases-for-luanga-project-6814Recording date: 9th September 2025Bravo Mining Company presents a compelling investment opportunity in the platinum group metals sector, combining tier-one asset quality with favorable market timing as global PGM fundamentals shift in favor of new producers. The company's flagship Luanga deposit in Brazil's Carajas region has emerged as one of the world's premier undeveloped PGM assets following dramatic resource expansion and robust preliminary economic assessment results.The investment thesis centers on exceptional asset quality, with Luanga's resource base expanding from 120 million tons grading 1.2 g/t to 236 million tons at 2.03 g/t over just two years. This positions the deposit among global tier-one PGM assets, capable of supporting 17 years of production at 500,000 ounces annually. The 8.1-kilometer strike length remains largely unexplored at depth, with over 40 drill holes indicating mineralization continuation beyond 400 meters, suggesting significant additional resource potential.Economic returns appear compelling across both development scenarios outlined in the preliminary assessment. The standard concentrate operation requires $495 million capital expenditure for $1.2 billion net present value, while the integrated approach adds $180 million investment to generate $1.8 billion NPV through direct metal production and sulfur byproduct sales. Production costs of approximately $700 per ounce against current $1,300 pricing provide substantial operational margins and flexibility.Brazil's mining-friendly jurisdiction delivers significant competitive advantages, particularly in the established Carajas region where Vale's infrastructure development provides immediate access to power, water, transportation, and skilled labor. This eliminates hundreds of millions in typical infrastructure capital expenditure while enabling an exceptional eight-month permitting timeline that contrasts favorably with increasing global regulatory challenges.Market timing appears optimal as PGM fundamentals improve following revised electric vehicle adoption forecasts. Chinese automakers, representing the world's largest car market, now project 50% conventional vehicles, 30% hybrids, and only 20% pure electric vehicles—a significant downward revision from earlier EV penetration expectations. This sustained conventional automotive demand occurs against constrained supply, with no major new PGM mines advancing through global development pipelines while South African producers face ongoing operational and regulatory challenges.Additional value creation opportunities exist through the company's IOCG exploration program, which has identified high-grade copper-gold potential including 6% copper and 1 gram per ton gold intersections at the T5 target. This creates potential spin-off possibilities while maintaining focus on core PGM development.Management's proven track record adds execution confidence, having previously built and sold a mine in the Carajas region for approximately $500 million. The team's regional experience, combined with disciplined capital allocation and strong balance sheet position, supports advancement through prefeasibility study completion by Q2 2026.The confluence of superior asset quality, compelling economics, infrastructure advantages, favorable jurisdiction, improving market fundamentals, and proven management creates a differentiated investment opportunity for investors seeking exposure to PGM market recovery while benefiting from Brazil's stable mining environment and established infrastructure base.View Bravo Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/bravo-mining Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The healthcare sector accounted for roughly 31,000 new jobs, but declining employment in the federal government, manufacturing, and professional services offset some of those gains; the BLS also revised June's employment numbers down by 27,000 and July's numbers up by 6,000. Separately, on Tuesday, the BLS reported that the U.S. added 911,000 fewer jobs between March 2024 and March 2025 than previously estimated, adding to concerns about the health of the job market.

Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Central Government Seeks Control Amid Economic Booms and Crises After the economy grew "out of control" in the 1980s, the central government, fearing a Soviet-style breakup, implemented "golden projects" for control over customs, taxes, and information. Following the 1998 Asian Financial Crisis, China recapitalized its banks by creating four asset management companies to buy bad assets, effectively injecting massive cash into the economy. This unleashed an explosion of wealth, shifting the Chinese people's aspirations toward getting rich. 1958
BOOK TITLE: The Decisive Decade: American Grand Strategy for Triumph over China AUTHOR: Jonathan DT Ward HEADLINE: The Second Great Divergence: Democracies vs. Dictatorships in the Economic Battleground Jonathan DT Ward introduces the "second great divergence" as an opportunity for democracies to economically surpass dictatorships like China and Russia. This involves seizing the Fourth Industrial Revolution and denying economic advantages to adversaries. China's economic strategies aim to achieve global preeminence, but the US and its allies can counter this by leveraging their collective economic power, rebuilding industrial bases, and competing effectively in the emerging world. 1922 EKING PSTUDENTS GOING ABROAD TO STUDY
Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Early Economic Opening and Author's Unexpected Role in Xian In 1994, Anne Stevenson Yang was invited to Xian, China, to represent a business council, unexpectedly finding herself the esteemed speaker at a trade show. This marked the "second decade of the Chinese miracle," a stark contrast to her 1985 experience as an editorialist at China Pictorial, where employees slept on desks in a profoundly non-capitalistic culture. 1942
Book Title: Wild Ride: A Short History of the Opening and Closing of the Chinese Economy Author: Anne Stevenson Yang Headline: Deng Xiaoping's Reforms and the Rise of Red Capitalism Following Mao Zedong's death, Deng Xiaoping initiated economic reforms in 1979, driven by the need for hard currency for international travel. His solution was to create hermetically sealed export zones, like Shenzhen, to attract foreign companies and currency. This "red capitalism" led to an elite class, where Deng Xiaoping's daughter and Jiang Zemin's son, Jiang Mianheng (Mr. 10%), secured money and political power, often by taking equity in new companies. 1954

Economy Trump's Interior Secretary Doug Burgum TORCHES Gavin Newsom — Says California Fires Released More CO2 Than All Their So-Called Climate Controls! Doug Burgum:“The fuel load buildup that's occurred in American forests can actually go back to the Clinton era. There was a famous effort at the beginning of the environmental extremist movement that said, “Oh, the spotted owl! We can't cut any more trees because of the spotted owl.” This was part of the weaponization of the Endangered Species Act.. And if people do care about CO₂ releases—when a forest burns, these are massive CO₂ releases. That's how you release CO₂ from a tree—you burn it. When you have a campfire, you're releasing that carbon. The fires in California have released more CO₂ than all of their so-called efforts to “control” CO₂.” Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1964483504198037657 result, the share of individuals unemployed for more than 27 weeks rose to 26.3%, the highest since February 2022. This marks a near 10 percentage point increase in just 20 months. It also means this percentage now higher than in all previous recessions, excluding 2020 and 2008. The US job market is declining. .Deportations of undocumented immigrants under the Trump administration appear to be a contributing factor to this slowdown. Preliminary Census Bureau data shows a 1.2 million decline in immigrant workers from January through July 2025, driven by over 1,000 deportation flights (up 15% year-over-year) and policies removing work authorization for hundreds of thousands. This has hit industries reliant on immigrant labor hardest, such as construction (where 10 states with high concentrations of undocumented workers saw a 0.1% employment drop), agriculture, and hospitality, potentially risking billions in economic output. Economic analyses project that sustained mass deportations could lead to 5.9-6 million total job losses nationwide, including 2.6 million for US-born workers due to ripple effects like reduced consumer spending and supply chain disruptions—though some models suggest low-skilled authorized workers might see modest wage gains if deportations persist long-term. The White House frames this as "America First" progress, claiming it returns jobs to citizens, but broader data indicates the labor force contraction is exacerbating hiring stalls rather than alleviating them. Cuts to federal government jobs are also directly impacting overall employment figures. The Trump administration's hiring freeze (extended from January 2025) and voluntary buyouts have led to a net loss of 148,000-300,000 federal positions by late 2025, with August alone seeing a 15,
