A lot of things are on track to get more expensive. The U.S. Treasury market is the bedrock of the global economy. When yields on those Treasuries go up, mortgages, car loans and credit cards get more expensive, and it can hit the stock market, too. And yields have been going up – to levels we haven't seen consistently since before the Great Recession – inspiring some erratic and futile efforts from the Trump administration to push them back down. So why are yields creeping higher? What is the administration trying to do about it? And if this continues, what's in store for the economy?

De grote Amerikaanse zakenbanken hebben een waarschuwing voor jou als belegger. De toenemende weerstand tegen datacenters in de maatschappij, kan een risico worden voor de Amerikaanse beurs. En niet het minste risico: bij een Democratische overwinning bij de komende midtermverkiezingen, moet je volgens Bank of America rekening houden met verliezen van meer dan 10 procent! Wat je daarmee moet, zoeken we deze aflevering voor je uit. Vertellen we je ook over Shell. Dat weet niet wat het aan moet met z'n chemie-tak en twijfelt over een verkoop, nu het meer en meer de focus verlegd naar puur olie- en gas. Naar een koper hoeft Shell in ieder geval niet lang te zoeken. Onder meer ExxonMobil, Lyondell-Basell en Apollo staan te springen om de (Amerikaanse) chemietak te kopen, melden bronnen aan de Financial Times. Bespreken we ook nog: Een Chinese beursgang met dank aan een diefstal bij ASML De beleggingsstrategie van president Donald Trump Het grootste koersverlies bij Alibaba in anderhalf jaar Een meevaller, gevolgd door een tegenvaller voor Paramount Te gast: Erik Mauritz van Trade Republic BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo.

Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren.

Day 1,638.Today, as Russia is accused of yet another incursion into Nato airspace, there are reports of a major Ukrainian drone attack on occupied Crimea. Kyiv is apparently seeking approval – again – from Elon Musk, this time to use Starlink in strikes on Russian missile launchers. Meanwhile, Russia is defenseless in the Mediterranean for the first time in a decade. We speak to the Telegraph journalist who got the scoop. Plus, a bizarre twist in the story of the suspected Nord Stream saboteur - and which American music artist is set to perform in St Petersburg in October? Finally, we catch up with occupied territories expert Dr Jade McGlynn on her recent trip to eastern Ukraine.Contributors:Adelie Pojzman-Pontay (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @Adeliepjz on X.Sophie O'Sullivan (Telegraph journalist).

The death of Cambridge academic Jason Arday has prompted intense debate about media conduct, following weeks of reporting on allegations of plagiarism and questions about aspects of his life story. Critics have accused journalists of contributing to an atmosphere of relentless scrutiny, while others argue that legitimate public interest questions were being pursued. Nick Clark, a childhood friend of Jason Arday, reflects on his experience of speaking to reporters. Charles Moore, columnist at The Telegraph and The Spectator, Seun Matiluko, freelance journalist, Sarah Ditum, Times Columnist and Stephen Bush, columnist at the Financial Times, consider questions of proportionality, public interest and journalistic responsibility.Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins Producer: Lisa Jenkinson Content producer: Lucy Wai Researcher: Ruth Waites Technical coordinator: Mark Dickins Sound: Allyson Purcell-Davis
Day 1,635.Today, after a huge drone attack on the Moscow region – potentially breaking another record – we report on the latest major Red Square military parade to be cancelled. Meanwhile, the Kremlin reportedly makes sure an outspoken banker is silenced for daring to suggest that Russia cannot win a war of attrition against Ukraine and its allies. Then Dom asks the UN's representative in Ukraine whether the current model is “fit for purpose.” His answer may surprise you.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @DomNicholls on X.With thanks Matthias Schmale, UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine.Producer: Rachel PorterSenior Producer: Lilian FawcettVideo Producer: Sophie O'Sullivan and Anthony MeltonSocial Producer: Anita BlayStudio Director: Meghan SearleExecutive Editor: Francis DearnleyCreated by David KnowlesNOW IN FULL VIDEO WITH MAPS & BATTLEFIELD FOOTAGE:Every episode is now available on our YouTube channel shortly after the release of the audio version.

Confira os destaques de Os Pingos nos Is desta segunda-feira (17):No programa Os Pingos nos Is desta segunda-feira (17), o comentarista André Marsiglia comenta as investigações contra o filho de Lula, o Lulinha, que apontam mensagens trocadas em março de 2024 nas quais Roberta Luchsinger diz que o futuro deles seria na Suíça. O comentarista alerta para os desdobramentos das apurações que envolvem ainda interlocuções com o ex-secretário do Ministério da Saúde, Swedenberger Barbosa, e com Marco Aurélio Santana Ribeiro, o Marcola. Por fim, Marsiglia defende a necessidade de independência da Polícia Federal e do ministro André Mendonça para esclarecer até onde vão as conexões e os impactos dessas conversas no governo Lula. Os Estados Unidos estudam voltar a aplicar a Lei Magnitsky contra o ministro Alexandre de Moraes, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF). A informação é do jornal britânico Financial Times. A medida prevê o congelamento de eventuais bens nos Estados Unidos, além de proibir empresas norte-americanas de fazerem negócios com ele. O ministro do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), Flávio Dino, afastou o presidente do Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Maranhão (TCE), Daniel Brandão, por 180 dias. A medida foi tomada após um pedido da Polícia Federal (PF), que investiga um suposto esquema de desvios públicos no Estado, que abrange emendas federais e um assassinato que teria ocorrido dentro do esquema. A Seccional de São Paulo da Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil (OAB-SP) encaminhou ao Conselho Federal da entidade uma proposta de Proposta de Emenda à Constituição (PEC) que estabelece limite de mandato de 12 anos, sem direito a recondução, para ministros do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF). Além do teto temporal, o texto sugere elevar a idade mínima para ingresso na Corte de 35 para 50 anos. Após a decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), que restringiu o pagamento dos chamados "penduricalhos", verbas indenizatórias e adicionais que inflavam os vencimentos e extrapolavam o teto do funcionalismo um juiz afirmou ter perdido mais de 20% da renda mensal e reclamou da situação em uma carta. “Jamais imaginei tamanha humilhação”, disse o magistrado. A plataforma Discord anunciou, nesta segunda-feira (17), que suspendeu as transmissões de vídeo e compartilhamento de tela para usuários no Brasil. A decisão atende a uma determinação da Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados (ANPD), que instaurou um processo fiscalizatório para apurar o cumprimento de diretrizes de segurança da informação, a eficácia dos mecanismos de verificação de idade e a proteção de dados de crianças e adolescentes na rede social. O prazo para a plataforma cumprir a determinação terminou nesta segunda. Você confere essas e outras notícias em Os Pingos nos Is.

This one is Claude Sonnet 5 - did a decent job. Got Gemini to do it at the same time and it was SHIT. --------------------------Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack open with an air-conditioner instalation story that would give any WHS officer a heart attack, before diving into the immigration debate consuming the Western world, Albo's cringeworthy podcast melon gag and the diplomatic fallout with Japan, Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire, a grim Newspoll for Labor, the conviction of former Bishop Christopher Saunders, the unravelling Mahmoud Fazal/Four Corners scandal, an AI Royal Commission, Israel's rejection of the Gaza peace plan, Ukraine's drone edge, a spot of Marxism 101, and a bumper sports wrap covering the Ashes build-up, Geelong's concussion waiver scandal and the NRL's new PNG and Perth franchises.00:00:26 — Cold open: Hong Kong air-con drama. Hong Kong Jack recounts tradesmen scaling the building exterior, tying off to a sewer pipe and rigging a platform in under an hour — a workplace safety non-starter back home.00:01:20 — Immigration policy in limbo. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke pulls his National Press Club address after Cabinet gets cold feet on migration numbers; One Nation capitalises on the vacuum.00:02:17 — Paul Kelly on the West's immigration reckoning. The hosts unpack Kelly's column on multiculturalism's failures in Europe versus its comparative success in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US, and why a clear pathway to national identity matters.00:04:23 — The politician/public disconnect. A Financial Times study (John Burn-Murdoch) showing big gaps between public and political opinion on migrant assimilation across Britain, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.00:06:10 — Is the far right the cause or the symptom? A robust back-and-forth on whether One Nation, AfD, Reform UK and Le Pen's party are driving the backlash or simply capitalising on governments that lost control of migration systems.00:08:50 — Albo's podcast melon gag fallout. The PM's crass "melons" line about the Japanese Prime Minister on a comedy podcast draws a diplomatic complaint from Tokyo and calls for an apology he still hasn't given.00:10:39 — Why politicians chase the "youth" podcast circuit. Discussion of Albo's ties to Sandilands-style FM radio and whether the audience numbers justify the reputational risk.00:12:32 — Latika Bourke's double standard question. Would a corporate CEO survive the same scrutiny as a Prime Minister? The Jacks disagree on how novel the standard really is.00:14:14 — Angus Taylor's Twitter misfire. A dissected, over-written tweet accusing the "socialist" Albanese government lands badly — "people might think they're bumbling fools, but they don't think they're socialist."00:15:53 — Angus Taylor and the ICAC donation question. A circular exchange over an unresolved email regarding a potential donation tied to a group under ICAC scrutiny.00:17:52 — Coalition social media strategy. Jane Hume's five-a-day Instagram habit and whether the Coalition's messaging is landing with anyone at this point in the electoral cycle.00:18:52 — Productivity and work-from-home. Westpac CEO Anthony Miller warns rates could stay elevated into 2028 without a productivity fix; Victoria shelves its work-from-home legislation ahead of the planned 1 September start.00:21:36 — Red tape and the housing/business regulation debate. Building approval bottlenecks, the Coalition's building-standards rollback proposal, and why company/tax reporting (not ABN registration) is the real handicap for small business.00:24:14 — Newspoll: Labor's primary vote "plunges." Labor down to 29 percent (from 31), described by the Jacks as more "meandering" than plunging — with a look at how far off Labor is from its 34.5 percent election benchmark.00:25:31 — Kos Samaras/RedBridge on the new voter blocs. A breakdown of Labor's inner-city, under-45, migrant-heavy base; One Nation's mortgage-stressed, outer-suburban trades vote; and the Coalition's shrinking, wealthy, over-55 remnant — plus where the Jacks think the analysis oversimplifies.00:28:42 — How the Coalition lost its heartland. Reflections on 19 years of Coalition government since Howard, the failure to read demographic warning signs, and the loss of both the "asset rich" and "asset poor" ends of its old coalition.00:31:49 — Content warning: child sexual abuse. Former Bishop of Broome Christopher Saunders, 76, found guilty of one count of sexual penetration and multiple indecent assault charges against a young Indigenous man; sentencing yet to be scheduled.00:32:50 — Saunders' pattern of behaviour. Allegations of financial mismanagement, smuggling alcohol into dry Indigenous communities, a 2019 police raid uncovering exploitation material, and a Vatican finding he likely abused Indigenous youth.00:34:59 — The Bishop Ronald Mulkearns parallel. The Ballarat bishop's Royal Commission appearance and mysterious final holiday hosted by Saunders in Broome shortly before his death.00:37:06 — The Four Corners/Mahmoud Fazal scandal. Fazal's background as a self-described former Mongols bike gang sergeant-at-arms turned journalist; his Cocaine Nation and Meth Highway reports pulled from air, along with a Background Briefing program.00:38:33 — Media Watch's verdict. Linton Besser's assessment that Fazal was "embellishing his journalism," and how ABC's editorial oversight failed across two flagship programs.00:39:39 — The Jordan Shanks (Friendly Jordies) threat allegations. Fazal's alleged role relaying threats from the Alameddine crime family after Shanks' house was firebombed twice; Fazal disputes the death-threat characterisation.00:41:36 — Where journalism crosses into participation. Jack the Insider's personal rule against interviewing active criminals, and a wider discussion of when reporters become "players" rather than observers — including a detour to the "Poison Dwarf," Clayton Milne.00:46:20 — A 2006 ice epidemic documentary as the gold standard. A comparison piece where public health officials and police saw the crystal meth wave coming years before government — done properly, without masked, unverifiable sources.00:48:21 — South Australia's $3 million AI Royal Commission. Premier Peter Malinauskas announces the inquiry; the Jacks are sceptical it will produce much, suspecting it's more about attracting AI investment.00:49:27 — The AI investment bubble risk. Massive capital flowing into Anthropic, Meta and Google versus cheaper, competitive Chinese models — and what that imbalance could mean for the S&P 500's AI-heavy weighting.00:51:00 — Israel rejects Trump's 15-point Gaza plan. Distrust that Hamas will disarm, and why the stakes feel existential rather than abstract for Israelis.00:52:32 — Israel's 27 October election. Netanyahu's fragile coalition, Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Smotrich's collapsing poll numbers, and the growing backlash over ultra-Orthodox exemptions from IDF service.00:57:09 — Ukraine: Starlink access and drone warfare. Elon Musk restricting Ukrainian Starlink use against Russia, a declined meeting with Trump, and Ukraine's drone successes — including a joint exercise with US forces in Germany.01:00:29 — Reports of distress aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. Unconfirmed accounts of sailors going overboard after roughly ten months of continuous deployment.01:01:52 — Stephen Kotkin on Marxism's enduring appeal. Why intellectuals keep returning to Marxist ideas despite the historical body count — and a tangent on campus recruitment, ASIO and the "special role" intellectuals imagine for themselves.01:05:15 — Iran, Cambodia and the fate of the intellectual class. Historical examples of revolutions turning on the intelligentsia that helped bring them about.01:06:06 — Sport check: the Ashes build-up begins. Australia's shaky start against Bangladesh, Steve Smith's lucky reprieve, and questions over Alex Carey's batting position and the middle order.01:08:24 — Selection headaches: Labuschagne and Nathan Lyon. Marnus Labuschagne's technical struggles and whether Lyon plays out the year, with the World Test Championship and next year's Ashes on the horizon.01:11:03 — Geelong's concussion contract waiver scandal. A player reportedly signing away his right to sue over concussion management; questions over why the club didn't submit the waiver to the AFL or AFLPA, and calls for points deductions rather than fines.01:16:04 — Jake Kelly's likely retirement and player consent. Whether it matters who initiated the waiver, and why players will "sign anything" to keep playing despite long-term brain injury risks.01:18:30 — NRL expansion: PNG Chiefs and Perth Bears. Tax-free salaries giving PNG Chiefs an effective cap advantage, players relocating to a purpose-built village in Port Moresby, and Perth's 2027 entry into the competition.01:22:36 — Poaching rugby fans, AFL's expansion and wildcard finals. The Perth Bears' leadership, Tasmania Devils' draft concessions, Nigel Lappin's coaching move, and early impressions of the AFL's new wildcard finals round.

O avião ficará estacionado no Aeroporto Internacional de Brasília, onde será submetido às medidas judiciais cabíveis. Reportagem: Marco Viana. Em documento enviado ao Ibama (Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis), a Petrobras afirmou que espera gastar ao todo pouco mais de R$ 3,3 bilhões para perfurar quatro poços na Foz do Amazonas. A manifestação afirma ainda que o valor inicial contempla os descontos dos custos com garantias e/ou apólices, prêmios de seguros pessoais e reais, licenciamento ambiental e planos, programas e projetos ambientais associados a cada perfuração. O valor foi repassado pela Petrobras ao Ibama depois que o órgão cobrou, durante parecer do fim de 2025, o pagamento de uma compensação ambiental de R$ 39,6 milhões para a exploração no poço pioneiro Morpho, onde foi encontrado petróleo na sexta-feira (14). Reportagem: Rodrigo Viga. O governo dos Estados Unidos discutiu a imposição de novas sanções contra o ministro do STF Alexandre de Moraes, segundo o jornal Financial Times. De acordo com fontes ouvidas pela publicação, a medida estaria relacionada à investigação sobre a origem de uma reportagem envolvendo o ministro Flávio Dino e aos mandados autorizados por Moraes. Em julho do ano passado, os EUA aplicaram sanções ao magistrado com base na Lei Magnitsky, posteriormente revogadas em dezembro. A punição havia sido motivada pela atuação de Moraes no julgamento que resultou na condenação do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Reportagem: Eliseu Caetano. Os 21 partidos políticos com representação no Congresso Nacional têm até esta quarta-feira (19) para prestar esclarecimentos ao ministro Flávio Dino, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), sobre a eventual participação de dirigentes partidários na gestão de emendas parlamentares. O pedido busca esclarecer se houve participação de dirigentes das legendas na gestão dos recursos. Reportagem: Marco Viana. O presidente Lula (PT) e Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) aparecem tecnicamente empatados em um eventual segundo turno das eleições de 2026, segundo pesquisa Nexus realizada para o BTG Pactual. O petista tem 47% das intenções de voto, contra 44% de Flávio Bolsonaro, filho do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Como a margem de erro é de 2 pontos percentuais, a diferença entre os dois está dentro do intervalo estatístico da pesquisa. Ainda no confronto entre Lula e Flávio Bolsonaro, 8% dos entrevistados afirmaram que votariam em branco, nulo ou não escolheriam nenhum dos dois, enquanto 1% não soube ou não respondeu.

Investorerne bider negle frem mod Nvidia-regnskabet om en lille uges tid. Vil AI-boomet fortsætte? Analytikerne er optimister, men forventningerne er skruet så højt op, at selv et flot regnskab kan skuffe. Financial Times skriver, at AI-giganten Anthropic ser ud til at gå på børsen til oktober i, hvad der kan blive en af historiens største børsnoteringer. Investorer vurderer, at selskabets markedsværdi ligger på omkring 2.000 milliarder dollars værd. Skal man købe en bid? Til sidst kigger vi på slagsmålet om den milliarddyre momsnedsættelse, hvor Enhedslistens Pelle Dragsted er på forsiden af både Politiken og Børsen med et klart budskab til regeringen: Giv os de aftalte momsnedsættelser! Ellers mister I Enhedslisten som støtteparti. Men hvad siger den økonomiske forskning? Kommer nedsættelsen forbrugerne til gode eller sluger virksomhederne den bare som profit? Det er en ekstrem dyr måde at bekæmpe ulighed på, lyder kritikken. I studiet: Magnus Barsøe og Mikael Milhøj.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Silicon Bites Ep382 | 2026-08-15 | Putin has multiple fears now. Known knowns – Ukrainian drones. Known unknowns – Foreign intelligence services. Unknown unknowns – internal rivals and opponents within the system. The drones are the fear he can name. But the others also feed his rampant paranoia. On 22 December 2025, a car bomb in a Moscow car park killed Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov, head of the General Staff's Operational Training Directorate. Three days later Putin convened the heads of the security services. According to a European intelligence dossier obtained by CNN, the Financial Times and iStories in May, that meeting degenerated into a brawl. Chief of the General Staff Gerasimov attacked FSB director Bortnikov for failing to protect senior officers. Bortnikov pleaded shortage of resources and manpower. Putin ended it by demanding concrete solutions within a week.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

After an avalanche of earnings updates, we turn to our annual Income Majors special report and dive into two prominent FTSE 100 dividend stocks. First up is insurer Legal & General; pressure has been mounting on the company as it grapples with a more competitive pensions market. Christopher Akers explains the CEO's buyback plan, its yield and what it means for investors.We then move to GSK, once known as GlaxoSmithKline, which faces a tricky balancing act between dividends and developing new drugs. The pharma giant has been spending heavily on R&D – a staggering £18bn this year alone to build its oncology pipeline. Julian Hofmann has the details.Finally, we cast our ears to Hill & Smith's growth across the pond. The steel products company now generates two-thirds of its revenue from the US and has even switched its currency from sterling to dollars.

Adyen stelt wat teleur in de eerste helft van het jaar, maar maakt dat de komende maanden meer dan goed. De betaalverwerker is extreem enthousiast over wat komen gaat. Het verhoogt de omzetverwachting. Waar aandeelhouders het aandeel eerder nog dumpten, slaan ze het nu massaal in. Deze aflevering hebben we het uitgebreid over die vooruitblik. Je hoort of Adyen het vertrouwen weer helemaal heeft teruggewonnen en waar de groeikansen liggen. Hebben we het ook over Anthropic. Dat gaat volgens de Financial Times in de herfst naar Wall Street. Met een prijskaartje van 2000 miljard! Meer dan SpaceX! Beide bedrijven stellen dus niet teleur. Dat doet Fastned ook niet, bekend van die snellaadstations. Het verlies is wat ingelopen en de omzet flink gestegen. Ook verhoogt het bedrijf de margeverwachting.

What role can a book play in helping a financial advisory firm build credibility, strengthen trust, and convert more prospects into clients?In this episode of the Top 50 Most Innovative Voices in Advisor Growth series, Jon Kuttin joins Paul G. McManus and Gabe McManus for a candid conversation about authority, organic growth, client acquisition, and how financial advisors can use books and media to become more influential in their markets.You'll learn how financial advisors can:• Use a book to build credibility before the first meeting• Stop relying exclusively on cold leads and chasing prospects• Turn referrals into stronger trust-based conversations• Integrate a book into seminars, CPA relationships, client events, and acquisitions• Differentiate themselves when prospects are comparing multiple advisors• Use stories to show ideal clients that they understand their concerns• Build authority through books, podcasts, YouTube, and other media• Transfer the founder's ideas and credibility to other members of the team• Turn a book into a playbook for clients, prospects, and employees• Use authority marketing to strengthen existing business development activities• Accelerate the speed of trust during the sales process• Build visibility that continues working even when the founder is not in the roomOne of Jon's most powerful observations is that the book does not work because it sits on Amazon. Its value comes from consistently putting it into the hands of prospects, clients, centers of influence, and people evaluating the firm.Jon describes his book as a credibility piece and differentiator. When two advisors appear equally capable, being the advisor who has clearly articulated a point of view in a book can help tilt the decision in your favor.The larger opportunity is not simply becoming an author. It is using the ideas inside the book as the foundation for a broader authority system that supports referrals, seminars, acquisitions, media, team growth, and better client conversations.ABOUT JON KUTTINJon Kuttin is a Barron's Hall of Fame Advisor and longtime financial services leader with more than 25 years of experience building and growing advisory businesses.Since beginning his career in 1994, Jon has been recognized among Barron's Top 100 Independent Financial Advisors and has also received recognition from Forbes and the Financial Times.In addition to leading his financial advisory practice, Jon founded Kuttin Consulting Group to help financial advisors and financial professionals grow through leadership, acquisitions, professional alliances, recruiting, organic growth, and other strategic initiatives.Over the course of his career, he has helped more than 1,000 CPAs and financial professionals rethink and grow their practices.ABOUT INFLUENTIAL ADVISOR MEDIAThe Influential Advisor Podcast, hosted by Paul G.

Een kwartaal om door een ringetje te halen! ABN maakte meer winst, zag het rendement op het eigen vermogen toenemen, de buffers stijgen en de kosten zakken. Het was bovendien allemaal veel beter dan waarop analisten hadden gerekend. En de aandeelhouder? Die is blij, want het dividend gaat omhoog. Deze aflevering hebben we het over het succes van ABN. Waar doet de bank het goed en waar kunnen ze het nóg beter doen? Ook gaat het over de buffers van de bank. Die staan er zo goed voor, dat ze op overnamepad kunnen. Moeten ze dat ook doen? Verder duiken we in de wereld van cloudverhuur. We hebben het over een Amerikaanse hit, CoreWeave. De omzet verdubbelde en beleggers duiken op het aandeel. Een klein probleempje: het maakt nog altijd geen winst. Winst was er ook voor het Noorse staatsfonds, de grootste belegger van de wereld. In de eerst helft van het jaar een keurige 186 miljard dollar winst! Ook laten de Noren weten hoeveel aandelen ze precies in SpaceX hebben. Hello Kitty, jawel, komt ook nog voorbij deze aflevering.

Day 1,628.Today, as President Zelensky warns that as many as 50,000 North Korean troops could be preparing to deploy to Russia, we examine what a renewed role for Pyongyang could mean for the war in Ukraine. We also report on Ukraine's latest strikes against Wildberries, after one of the Russian e-commerce giant's largest warehouses was set ablaze overnight, as Kyiv continues targeting the logistics infrastructure sustaining Moscow's war machine. Then we turn to politics inside Russia, where a top Moscow court has barred an opposition anti-war party from standing in September's elections, offering another glimpse of the Kremlin's tightening grip on political life. And later, we hear firsthand what life is like in some of Ukraine's key frontline cities as the war enters a new and potentially dangerous phase, from a journalist who has just returned from the battlefield.

Last week, 24-year-old Leopold Aschenbrenner — former FTX staffer, ex-OpenAI researcher, and author of the viral 165-page essay "Situational Awareness" — managed to lose roughly two-thirds of his $45 billion hedge fund in a matter of weeks. The margin calls arrived during his wedding weekend.In this video I break down how a trader with no professional experience raised billions from Silicon Valley, why his AI "hedge" wasn't a hedge at all, and how leverage plus a concentrated bet on artificial intelligence stocks turned a great-looking expected return into a catastrophic outcome. Along the way we look at the cultural gap between Silicon Valley and Wall Street, why Ken Griffin's Citadel ended up buying the collapsing portfolio in an overnight fire sale, and the maths of volatility drag — the reason a high expected return can still drag an investor's typical outcome straight into the ground.It's a story about leverage, risk management, expected versus median returns, and what happens when you go "full Kelly." Featuring reporting from the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Bloomberg, and the Financial Times, plus Victor Haghani's lessons from The Missing Billionaires.
Fidelity is one of the most powerful financial institutions in America, but the story of the family behind it has largely remained hidden. Justin Baer joins me to reveal how the Johnson dynasty built a $13 trillion empire, and how Abigail Johnson had the courage to reinvent it before the old business model became a relic. Justin Baer is an award-winning journalist and an editor for The Wall Street Journal. In a career that includes stints at the Financial Times and Bloomberg News, he has covered almost every significant financial event over the past two decades, including the dot-com bubble, the 2008 financial crisis and the economic fallout from the pandemic. Along the way, Baer has chronicled the ups and downs of such major institutions as Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan Chase, Citigroup and Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway.

Christopher Miller, Chief Correspondent for the Financial Times in Kyiv, reacts to the deadliest strike on Russia since the start of its war in Ukraine, which left 13 people dead.
Raar, maar toch echt waar. Nvidia gaat samenwerken met de grootste vermogensbeheerders van de wereld. Partijen zoals Blackrock, maar ook financiële reuzen als Goldman Sachs. Partijen die samen 500 miljard dollar voor Nvidia verzamelen. Een bijzonder plan, want die 500 miljard is geld dat Nvidia ophaalt voor z'n eigen klant. Geld dat die klanten kunnen lenen om datacenters en Nvidia-chips te financieren. Deze aflevering kijken we of dat geniaal is of gewoon een gigantisch risico. Want wat zegt het dat Nvidia geld moet ophalen voor zijn eigen klanten? En gaan meer bedrijven dit voorbeeld volgen Hebben we het ook over Philips.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Peter Carlin to the show. Peter Carlin is Commodity Broker, Trader, and Author. The discussion opens with the extreme volatility in global energy markets, where the Strait of Hormuz and Red Sea disruptions are creating severe logistical bottlenecks. Carlin explains that the real crisis is not crude oil supply per se, but a mismatch between the sour crude grades needed by Western refineries and the sweet crude that is more readily available. The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is being heavily drawn down, particularly its sour component, to feed refineries and supply Europe, while refinery utilization rates in America are running unsustainably high, threatening system integrity. He notes that the situation is fluid and that any return to normal is unlikely; the geopolitical landscape has fundamentally shifted, with the US military presence in the Gulf diminished and Iran successfully exporting oil to China, settling in renminbi via alternative payment systems. The conversation shifts to gold and currencies. Carlin observes that gold's recent price action is linked to the apparent disappearance of a distressed seller in the Gulf, now that loadings have resumed. He sees the yen's weakness as a key barometer for gold, arguing that intervention cannot save the Japanese currency, and a sovereign debt crisis there would trigger contagion, driving investors toward gold and equities. He advises against chasing strength and recommends buying gold on weakness, cautioning that the public tends to do the opposite. Silver, while volatile, remains a leveraged play on fear but requires extreme caution due to professional traders dominating the market. Finally, Carlin shares the story behind his book, “A Pocketbook of Gold,” co-authored with the legendary Jim Sinclair, who famously called the 1970s gold bull market and the 2011 peak. The book, now available as a PDF, distills Sinclair's trading wisdom and serves as a survival manual for monetary turmoil. Carlin emphasizes the importance of disciplined, patient trading over speculative home runs, a lesson drawn from decades of market experience.

We explore a common paradox in this episode (and I'll be up front that this is one I've struggled with for most of my career) – and that is, being a likeable badass. How can we be both liked as a person and respected for our success? How do we get the recognition, negotiate for our value, and create opportunities without our peers or colleagues seeing us as cold, calculating or selfish? How do we create and leverage power and status as women, if we feel icky about the words power and status? I don't have the answers, friend, but I know someone who does. Alison Fragale is the author of Likeable Badass and the Mary Farley Ames Lee Distinguished Scholar of Organizational Behavior at the Kenan-Flagler Business School. Her work has been published in the most prestigious academic journals in her field, and is featured in prominent media outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Financial Times, Boston Globe, and many more. A sought-after keynote speaker and trusted advisor, Alison was introduced to me by Adam Grant, and is here today to help us understand more about power, status, and likeability – and how those things impact our ability to get more of what we want. A loving reminder that whether or not you're a working professional, we're ALL negotiating for the things we want, for what matters most to us. And whether you're at work or in your personal relationships, your status matters. It's time for us to set aside those limiting mindsets because they aren't serving us or our people. You can be and become a likable badass. Thank you to our sponsors! Don't wait to teach your kids real-world money skills! Start your risk-free Greenlight trial today at Greenlight.com/TIWW.

When blue chip institutions suffer high-profile quality failures, the immediate corporate reaction is often to point fingers at the underlying technology. However, when an organization gets caught publishing fake frameworks and hallucinated citations for years, that isn't an AI failure. It's a systemic breakdown driven by an obsession with speed, profits, and volume over everything else. This week, I unpack the recent PwC hallucination scandal reported by the Financial Times. While headlines focus on the embarrassing blunders, the real story is how closely this mirrors the pressure cooker inside many major companies. Countless organizations are making the mistake of rushing to automate, trading validity, brand equity, and human trust just to say they're doing "more, faster." My goal this week is to help you avoid this digital speed trap by describing what it looks like to run a sustainable, human-centric framework for execution, quality, and accountability:Exposing the Production Obsession Trap: Trading validity and accuracy for sheer velocity is a recipe for brand destruction. When you execute without grounding your outputs in human reality, speed simply means running off potential cliffs at higher velocity. Closing the Human Reality Deficit: True leadership requires moving past vanity metrics like software logins or token counts. To eliminate organizational friction, you must capture hard data on human sentiment, behavioral fluency, and actual lived experience. Executing a Continuous, Outcome-Driven Blueprint: Rather than treating strategic alignment as a static annual event, leaders need an agile, closed-loop system. By focusing on what matters most, diagnosing behavioral capability gaps, and continuously pulsing along the way, you protect credibility while driving real impact. By the end, my hope is that you'll resist the urge to chase empty speed metrics or publish unverified "slop." Sustainable success in the AI age isn't about moving as fast as possible; it's about anchoring your technology in human truth, raising standards, and building lasting credibility. —Share your honest thoughts on the impact of AI at work: https://howdopeoplefeel.comAnd if you'd benefit from help balancing performance, technology, and people, check out my website at https://christopherlind.co—Chapters00:00 – The PwC Scandal: An Organizational Speed Breakdown03:45 – The Digital Speed Trap: Trading Validity for Velocity07:30 – Step 1: Focusing on What Matters Most (Pathfinder Pulse)11:15 – Step 2: Diagnosing Data Gaps & Human Friction (AER & HDPRF)16:00 – Step 3: Executing, Upskilling, and Continuous Pulsing (Helix)20:10 – Navigating Enterprise Bureaucracy & Continuous Agility22:45 – Three Surgical Leadership Moves to Reclaim Credibility #Leadership #AIStrategy #FutureFocused #WorkforceTransformation #OrganizationalTrust

Revenue came in light on take rate, management finally owned the $10 billion autonomy spending number first reported by The Financial Times, and the stock sold back into the sixties as the autonomy overhang weighs on the story.After 12 years, Zoox begins charging for rides in Las Vegas on August 10. An NHTSA filing surfaced by OMEGA reveals the catch, the vehicles cannot operate above 45 mph while average traffic out of Harry Reid International airport runs 55, complicating the airport unlock.With 105 vehicles as of June across seven approved cities, pricing 20% to 40% above rideshare, and wait times stretching past an hour, Walt calls it tourism pricing for a Disney World attraction. Meanwhile, Waymo returned to freeways after a two-month pause, and OMEGA is picking up new Waymo corporate filings around the world.Lucid burned over a billion dollars in the quarter but declared the Uber and Nuro robotaxi program a must-win project. The Teamsters sued the California DMV in Alameda Superior Court to repeal driverless trucking rules as autonomous trucking companies continue to rack up supervised miles in the state.On the Foreign Autonomy Desk, Wayve received a TfL license to carry paying passengers in London with safety drivers across 15 vehicles, but the APS permit is the asset that controls every relationship in the market.If Baidu secures one, it holds a clear off-ramp from Uber and FreeNow by Lyft to launch Apollo Go on its own. Meanwhile, Pony AI is targeting 500 to 1,000 Gen4 robotrucks in mainland China with CATL over the next two to three years, with a hint of foreign ports expansion.Episode Chapters0:00 Uber's Waymo Hangover4:52 Zoox Prepares to Go Paid in Vegas12:19 Waymo Returns to Freeways14:13 Uber, Nuro, Lucid Robotaxi Timeline20:30 DoorDash and the Market for Autonomous Food Delivery26:08 NVIDIA Alpamayo 232:22 The Teamsters sue the California DMV over Driverless Trucking Rules35:50 Tesla's China Business Question39:00 Foreign Autonomy Desk45:35 Next WeekFollow The Road to Autonomy Indices--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy is the leading applied intelligence platform covering the convergence of automation, autonomy, and the Autonomy Economy.™.Through our podcasts, newsletter, and proprietary applied intelligence, we set the narrative for institutional investors, industry executives, and policymakers navigating the convergence of automation, autonomy, and economic growth.Join institutional investors and industry leaders who read This Week in The Autonomy Economy every Sunday.

Andy and Brendan! went LIVE on YouTube for a Summer Friday recording that recapped the latest news regarding LIV Golf's new "investment." The two discuss LIV CEO Scott O'Neil's initial announcement of an investor signing a terms sheet on Wednesday morning and the ensuing reports that have suggested that this "investment" might really just be a loan. Andy points out that the headlines would be radically different had the announcement been that LIV found a creditor instead of an investor, a spin on the news that is still confusing people days later. Brendan goes through a timeline of follow-up reporting from Axios, The Financial Times, and more to give a full scope of the current status of this "investment." The two wonder how Jon Rahm's massive contract will figure into these future equity negotiations, especially if he leaves the league after the conclusion of the 2026 season. It does seem like Bryson DeChambeau will be sticking around, but will his presence be enough for the reported investors, BC Partners, to actually foot the bill moving forward? After a lengthy LIV Minute, Brendan quizzes Andy on which states are NOT represented by participants at next week's U.S. Amateur before Kevin Van Valkenburg calls in for Flashback Friday. KVV brings a story from the first-ever Presidents Cup about Loren Roberts and a penalty that would set the golf world ablaze if it occurred next month at Medinah. Also contained in this episode is a debate about how many "real cities" are in the United States, courtesy of Andy and PJ's week in Chicago. Are we a country of just a bunch of nice towns?

Over the past five months, the Strait of Hormuz has been closed for extended stretches of time, disrupting roughly 10 to 15 million barrels of oil supply each day. It is the biggest energy supply shock in history, but global energy markets are defying historical expectations. Despite lost production and heightened geopolitical instability, crude oil prices are far below the catastrophic levels many analysts predicted early on. But beneath the headline numbers, the broader energy system tells a far more complicated story. Refining margins have spiked to unprecedented levels, global coal consumption is pacing toward a new record high, and the ways energy moves around the world are changing in real time as the crisis continues to unfold. So, why hasn't this massive disruption triggered a full-blown global economic crisis? What role are China's massive strategic stockpiles, shifting demand patterns, and the ongoing energy transition playing in dampening the shock? And what are the long-term security implications for global oil refining, shipping chokepoints, and future LNG infrastructure? Today on the show, Jason Bordoff talks to Bloomberg opinion columnist Javier Blas about how the strait closure and Iran war have impacted global energy markets so far. Prior to joining Bloomberg in 2015, Javier held a number of roles at the Financial Times, including Africa editor and commodities editor. He is also the co-author of The World for Sale: Money, Power and the Traders Who Barter the Earth's Resources. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless. Produced by Mary Catherine O'Connor, Caroline Pitman, and Kyu Lee. Engineering by Gregory Vilfranc.

Day 1,617.As yet more Russian Wildberries distribution sites reach for the stars, Ukrainian missile producer Firepoint wins the month's top-trolling award by offering merch to anyone who correctly predicts their next target. Dom reports how ballistic-missile defence is the hot topic of military and diplomatic discussion at the moment, with offers from Poland, favours asked of SpaceX and, perhaps least surprising of all, a growing coolness from Donald Trump over the plan/idea/wishful thinking that Ukraine would be given the Patriot blueprints. Alex Nichol reports that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff may be in Ukraine in the next few weeks, which would be their first trip to Kyiv despite making multiple visits to Putin in Moscow.Contributors: Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @DomNicholls on X.Alex Nichol (Telegraph Journalist).With thanks to Hugh Roberts (@hugh.g.a.roberts on Instagram) and the University of Exeter.

Day 1,614.As Ukraine strikes a target more than 1,300 kilometres from Kyiv, Francis and Alex Nichol assess the significance of President Zelensky's visit to Washington for Lindsey Graham's funeral and to meet with President Trump. It comes a day after Ukraine struck a tanker from Iran in the Caspian Sea, something the US president was asked about on Air Force One. Meanwhile, attention is focused on Congress as lawmakers prepare to decide the fate of the bipartisan sanctions bill, which would impose sweeping tariffs on countries continuing to buy Russian energy. Later, we take a deep dive into the Black Sea grain corridor, exploring why it's returned to the centre of the war after recent attacks on merchant shipping, and what it means for global food security.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @FrancisDearnley on X.Alex Nichol (Telegraph Journalist).With thanks to Andrey Sizov, head of SovEcon grain consultancy (@sizov_andre on X).Producer: Tom SteedSenior Producer: Lilian FawcettVideo Producer: Sophie O'SullivanSocial Producer: Anita BlayStudio Director: Meghan SearleExecutive Editor: Francis DearnleyCreated by David KnowlesNOW IN FULL VIDEO WITH MAPS & BATTLEFIELD FOOTAGE:Every episode is now available on our YouTube channel shortly after the release of the audio version.
