Last month, two reports into maternity services in England were published. Donna Ockenden's review of maternity services at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust and Baroness Valerie Amos's investigation into maternity and neonatal services in England. These reports raised important issues about maternity services in England, but what impact have they had on the morale of those working in this area - particularly midwives? Nuala McGovern was joined by author and midwife Leah Hazard, Claire, a midwife practising in Wales, and Safia Saad, a student midwife and founder of Fund Future Midwives UK.Prenups are popular amongst the rich and famous, but research suggests that prenuptial agreements are on the rise for younger couples in the UK. Nuala spoke to Claer Barrett, Consumer Editor at the Financial Times, and Woman's Hour listener Bethan, who has a prenup with her husband, to discuss why more couples are drawing up legal contracts with their partners before they tie the knot.New analysis on mummies of Egyptian princesses shows they were warriors not just pampered queens with the signs pointing to them being highly skilled archers. They even carried wounds consistent with those made by daggers at close combat. It's an intriguing finding but perhaps an even bigger question is why discoveries like this still have the power to surprise us. We delve into how much of history is shaped not just by the evidence itself but by the assumptions we bring to it. Historian, broadcaster and author Bettany Hughes, whose new children's book explores the lives of people in Ancient Egypt, joined Kylie Pentelow along with Professor of History Olivette Otele.Presenter: Kylie Pentelow Producer: Annette Wells

Nobel laureate Professor Daniel Kahneman said we don't choose between experiences; we choose between the memory of an experience. If that's true — and the science says it is — then most organizations are investing in the wrong thing. In this episode, Colin and Ryan explore how memories are actually formed, the difference between short-term (working) and long-term memory, and why your brand is really just a memory structure in the minds of your customers. They dig into how heuristics and biases shape what we remember, why humans are relentless pattern-recognition machines, and what all of this means for the experiences you design. It's the first in a three-part series on the topic Colin calls his favorite of all. In this episode, you'll learn: Why memory — not the live experience — drives customer decisions, loyalty, and price tolerance The difference between short-term/working memory and long-term memory (and why most of your experience gets "binned" within seconds) How memories are stored as a connected network of "nodes," not isolated facts Why a brand, from the customer's point of view, is simply a memory structure, making brand management a form of memory management How customer expectations are built from memory, and what that means for "meeting and exceeding" them Where heuristics and biases come from — what's innate, what's learned, and what's situational The practical "so what" for designing experiences that customers actually remember Key quote: "We don't choose between experiences.

VOV1 - Trung Quốc hôm qua (31/7) đã công bố các quy định quản lý xuất nhập cảnh mới, trong đó nêu rõ công dân nước này nếu vi phạm các quy định về xuất nhập khẩu công nghệ và bị coi là có khả năng gây nguy hiểm cho an ninh công nghiệp hoặc công nghệ quốc gia có thể bị cấm xuất cảnh.Quy định mới của chính phủ Trung Quốc sẽ chính thức có hiệu lực từ 15/9/2026, gồm 19 điều, nhằm mục đích chuẩn hóa quản lý xuất nhập cảnh, bảo vệ chủ quyền, an ninh và lợi ích phát triển quốc gia.Một trong những quy định được đưa ra trong văn bản mới này là nếu công dân Trung Quốc vi phạm các quy định kiểm soát xuất khẩu, quy định quản lý xuất nhập khẩu công nghệ, có thể gây nguy hiểm cho an ninh công nghiệp và công nghệ quốc gia, các cơ quan liên quan của Quốc vụ viện (Chính phủ) Trung Quốc có thể đưa ra quyết định về việc cấm xuất cảnh.Theo quy định này, công dân Trung Quốc phạm các hành vi bất hợp pháp hoặc phạm tội gây nguy hiểm cho an ninh và lợi ích quốc gia ở nước ngoài có thể bị cấm xuất cảnh từ 6 tháng đến 3 năm sau khi trở về.Người nước ngoài xin visa Trung Quốc ở nước ngoài hoặc xin nhập cảnh tại cửa khẩu biên giới, nếu nộp tài liệu giả mạo hoặc khai báo sai, có thể bị cấm nhập cảnh từ 1-5 năm.Trước đó, tờ Financial Times từng đưa tin, hồi tháng 3 năm nay, trong quá trình xem xét liệu thương vụ mua lại công ty khởi nghiệp trí tuệ nhân tạo (AI) Manus trị giá 2 tỷ USD của Meta có vi phạm các quy định đầu tư hay không, Trung Quốc đã cấm 2 người đồng sáng lập Manus rời khỏi đất nước. Cuối tháng 4, Trung Quốc tiếp tục ra lệnh cho Meta rút lại đề nghị mua lại, cho thấy Bắc Kinh đang tăng cường nỗ lực ngăn chặn nhân tài AI và sở hữu trí tuệ của Trung Quốc chuyển sang các công ty Mỹ./.VOV Trung QuốcẢnh minh họa.

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.

Results season is in full swing, and it's been another bumper week – with the overwhelming majority positive. But there are always laggards, and this week's show dives into one of the FTSE 100's biggest fallers, Rentokil. The pest control business's shares plunged after its half-year figures. Julian Hofmann explains why.Then, we look overseas, with many of the big AI and semiconductor trades going into reverse over recent weeks, including memory-chip makers SK Hynix and Samsung. So what better time to discuss how to pick out the value shares in these global markets. Michael Fahy talks through his favourites. And finally, we look at the consequences of the SpaceX IPO for Britain's investors – not the losses on which they're sitting, but the possibility of it having tipped the first domino on access to US IPOs.

If markets no longer price value, then what's actually setting the price?Raise Your Average hosts Pierre Daillie and Adam Butler sit down with Michael Green, Chief Strategist and Portfolio Manager at Simplify Asset Management, for a deep dive into the passive investing thesis he has spent over a decade researching, defending, and stress testing.Green argues that trillions of dollars flowing automatically into index funds via 401(k)s, RSPs, and defined contribution plans have created a market where price no longer reflects judgment about value. He walks through the mechanics of the "inelastic market hypothesis," the outsized role of leveraged and levered sector ETFs like SOXL, the Grossman-Stiglitz framework and why its core assumptions no longer hold, and why active and value investing have become structurally disadvantaged in the current regime.The conversation also covers the 2026 macro backdrop of a US-Iran conflict, an oil shock, and equities at all-time highs despite it, the risk of a passive "end stage," and where genuine diversification (like managed futures) still fits. It's a candid, occasionally combative, and consistently illuminating discussion for anyone trying to understand why markets are behaving in ways that don't match historical patterns.Chapters00:00 – Introduction: has the market stopped pricing risk?08:00 – Welcome to Michael Green; setting up 2026's contradictions09:00 – The 50-year shift into "all equities all the time"10:00 – How ETF mechanics reduce market elasticity12:00 – Why pod shops and passive flows ignore fundamentals entirely13:00 – Leveraged sector ETFs (SOXL) aren't really passive15:00 – Echoes of the dot-com bubble: 1999 vs. today18:00 – Circular funding and Mag Seven earnings41:00 – Momentum, autocorrelation, and portfolio construction under passive dominance44:00 – Pushback from the Financial Times and mainstream finance media44:30 – Malkiel's Paradox of Skill and the Grossman-Stiglitz framework, unpacked47:00 – Why the "equal endowment" assumption is false49:00 – The large-stack player sets the terms of the market50:00 – The Inelastic Market Hypothesis (Gabaix and Koijen) and Green's updated multiplier estimates52:00 – Facilitators vs. correctors: why Citadel and Jane Street are thriving55:00 – The Newtonian vs. quantum physics analogy for market scale57:00 – GameStop, Michael Saylor, and self-liquidating vehicles1:13:00 – Market cap concentration data and transaction cost asymmetries1:15:00 – Why cap weighting has flipped from historically losing to structurally winning1:17:00 – Stein's Law and the coming correction1:18:00 – Why value investing is a "negative selection criteria" right now1:21:00 – Where active investors can still add value: becoming facilitators1:22:00 – Managed futures as liquidity provision and portfolio ballast1:25:00 – Capacity constraints and closing thoughts#MichaelGreen #PassiveInvesting #RaiseYourAverage #SimplifyAssetManagement #ETFs #IndexFunds #MarketStructure #InelasticMarketHypothesis #ActiveManagement #ValueInvesting #ManagedFutures #Macro #InvestingPodcast #StockMarket #FinancePodcast #WallStreet #PortfolioManagement #MarketBubble #AdvisorAnalyst

July 30, 2026: I look at Mark Zuckerberg's argument that AI superintelligence should be for everybody, and why Meta's falling operating margin and massive AI spending tell a more complicated story. Then I get into Leopold Aschenbrenner's AI hedge fund selling its public portfolio to Citadel after a brutal reversal in AI infrastructure stocks. Finally, I unpack the Financial Times report on PwC publishing fake AI citations and why fabricated sources may become one of the biggest credibility risks in the AI era.

A BBC investigation has uncovered allegations of sexual assault against the Hollywood star and musician Jared Leto. Four women who've spoken to the BBC were all teenagers at the time of the alleged offences, between 2002 and 2014. Nuala McGovern speaks to one of them about her experience and asks director Alice McShane about the process of making her film, Jared Leto: Hollywood's Dark Secret. Some of the details of this story are graphic and the subject matter is distressing.Bestselling author Scarlett Thomas has entered the world of ultra marathons and crypto-crime in her latest novel The Runner.

Andy Burnham's early promises to end rough sleeping and sort out social care won't surprise anyone who's followed his political career, but his apparent interest in the structures of Whitehall was less expected. To discuss what we know so far about the direction of Britain's new government, James is joined by Stephen Bush of the Financial Times and Sienna Rodgers of the House magazine. They talk through what the exclusions from Burnham's cabinet reveal about his political intentions, and why the tax and spending plans inherited from the last government might push him to call a general election next year.

SK Hynix had de hoogste winst uit de eigen geschiedenis. Maar beleggers wilden méér. ASM had de hoogste omzet uit de eigen geschiedenis, maar ook dat was niet genoeg. Beide aandelen werden keihard afgestraft. Deze aflevering hebben we het over de chiprally. Ondanks meer dan prima resultaten (en vooruitzichten) is het gedaan met de run op dit soort aandelen. In Nederland zijn ASML, Besi en ASMI sinds de piek vorige maand met tientallen procenten gedaald. We kijken of ( en hoe) die rally nog gereanimeerd kan worden. Hebben we het ook over de prestaties van NXP, nu we het toch over chips hebben. Dat zag de omzet én winst flink stijgen, maar beleggers hebben ook in dit aandeel even geen zin meer.

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.

Calvin #1: Some more things about Django I've been enjoying Julia Evans is learning "2010-style" web dev (Django + SQL + server-rendered HTML) after years of Go backends and JS-heavy frontends Query builders: likes defining custom QuerySet classes with chainable filter methods (.approved().future().with_tags()) — more readable than raw SQL Template filters: highlights urlize, linebreaksbr, json_script, and especially querystring for building/modifying query-string links in templates Migrations: still loves Django's auto-generated migrations — 19 and counting on her project Skips inheritance for class-based views; prefers function-based views for sharing code, though fine using Django's own mixins/interfaces Performance surprise: CPU profiling (via py-spy) — not slow DB queries — revealed the culprit; she'd accidentally disabled the cached template loader, and re-enabling it took throughput from ~2-3 req/s to ~12 req/s on a $10/mo VM Michael #2: Who cleans up after the vibe-coding party? FT Magazine piece by Sam Learner (July 11) on AI coding tools overwhelming open source maintainers - sent in by listener Dylan McConnell, whose main point was that this ran in the Financial Times, not a dev blog. cURL as the case study - Daniel Stenberg has been the only full-time person on it for years; libcurl has been installed an estimated 20+ billion times with 3,000+ listed contributors. Bug bounty killed - cURL ended its paid security bounty program in January, citing an "explosion of AI slop reports" that take real time to debunk and drain morale. Extractive contributions - authoring a PR is now nearly free, reviewing one still costs a human; tldraw's Steve Ruiz closed outside contributions entirely, asking why he'd want someone else writing the easy part. Guido weighs in - van Rossum says projects are holding emergency meetings over the slop flow, and notes LLM patches tend to touch unrelated parts of a file, making review more tedious. "Vibe Coding Kills Open Source" - paper from Miklós Koren's group: packages frequently recommended by coding models saw big download jumps with no matching engagement, breaking the reputation loop that sustains maintainers. Stack Overflow flatlined - over 100,000 questions a month before ChatGPT, under 1,500 last month, with the response rate cut roughly in half; the public archive is now stale training data. The course-creator angle - Josh Comeau's newest web dev course launched at about a third of prior enrollment, and he worries about devs who never learn which questions to ask. But the most interesting portion is what was omitted. Focused on: The end of the curl bug-bounty Omitted: High-Quality Chaos Why the omission is interesting It fits a narrative. The FT piece is a maintenance-and-decline story, and January-Stenberg is a perfect witness for it. April-Stenberg complicates it - same person, same project, better data, opposite direction on the specific claim being used. The tell is already in the article. Learner quotes Stenberg saying AI tools are much better at finding problems than fixing them. That's the April thesis in one line, and it goes undeveloped. Reason for the shift is process, not vibes. Killing the bounty removed the cash incentive and the venue change filtered the rest. Worth saying out loud, because "AI reports got better" isn't quite it - "no bounty plus a real triage platform" is closer. Joke too: Sarah O'Connor wrote a related piece (is this just before skynet launches?) Calvin #3: Where Did All Your AI Tokens Go? AgentsView to the rescue!

As usual with phishing scams there are a bunch of tells that this isn't legitimate, but just enough plausibility that I could see falling for it in a weak moment. Relative nobodies like me haven't historically been worth the effort to hit with scams this specific. Agents change the game though :-/. Be careful out there folks! Original message From: "Patrick (Blacktrace)" [HTML_REMOVED] To: LISTENER EMAIL Subject: Your Bandit #1350 (B105 NextToken false positive) -- just fixed that exact case Date: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 12:02 AM Hi AJ, Saw your Bandit issue #1350 -- the B105 hardcoded-password false positive on the string NextToken. I build a deterministic gate that filters that class of Bandit noise, and #1350 was literally the case I just fixed: NextToken / next_token / page_token / nextPageToken now stay quiet, while a genuine hardcoded token like api_token="sk-live-..." still fires. Verified against your exact case. 30-second paste: https://blacktrace.co/noise-eraser Where it still trips, published: https://blacktrace.co/kruc Curious whether it clears what you hit -- and if it trips on something of yours, that's the more useful reply. Patrick, Blacktrace I asked Claude for some analysis too. It was pretty good at finding them. The message name-drops enough real detail to feel legit, but the structure is pure phishing - everything in it exists to get AJ onto blacktrace.co. The strongest ones: Freemail sender, corporate signoff. Signs as "Patrick, Blacktrace" but sends from emailpjv@gmail.com. Real company outreach comes from the company domain, not a personal Gmail - and there's no last name. Over-specific targeting. It mirrors AJ's exact public activity - issue #1350, the B105 rule, the NextToken false positive, even the token variants. That's the "just enough plausibility" AJ flagged, and it's exactly what agents make cheap: scrape a GitHub issue, auto-generate tailored bait. Legit cold outreach rarely reads your history back to you this precisely. The entire payload is two links. Strip the technical flattery and the message is just "paste here" plus "see results here." When the whole point of an email is the click, that's the tell. "30-second paste." Low-friction urgency, and "paste" most likely means paste your source into their tool - handing your code to a stranger's site. Exfiltration dressed as convenience. Brand-new, no-reputation domain. blacktrace.co has no track record, and the name is doing some ominous work. The /kruc slug is random noise, not how real product pages get named. Precise-sounding jargon that's actually vague. "Deterministic gate," "noise-eraser" - impressive, empty. Bolted onto correct real details (B105 is the Bandit hardcoded-password test, sk-live- is a Stripe live-key prefix) to borrow credibility. The disarming close. "if it trips on something of yours, that's the more useful reply" - engineered humility that flatters your expertise and baits a response. Makes engaging feel like you're doing them a favor, which drops your guard.

Few political issues have united Americans the way that a resistance to new data centers to support the development of AI has done in recent months. But is this anger and opposition toward them misplaced, and even a threat to American reindustrialization?Josh Zoffer, a venture capitalist and Biden administration alum, joins Oren on the podcast to discuss the ongoing fight on data centers. Zoffer explains the thinking from his recent Financial Times piece, "Data centres are a crucial test of US industrial resolve," and why he thinks their construction is vital to America's success in the AI race with China. And he and Oren discuss how data centers fit into the broader, bipartisan push to build up domestic industrial capacity more broadly.

Months after many of his ‘Liberation Day' tariffs were declared illegal by the Supreme Court, Donald Trump has announced a fresh wave of tariffs against dozens of countries.This time, using the allegation of “forced labour” by America's trading partners, Trump is hoping his new tariffs will be less open to challenge in the courts.But what will the impact be on American consumers already hit hard by the war in Iran? And can anyone take Trump's trade policy seriously, when it can all change in an instant?On this episode of The Fourcast, Matt Frei is joined by Australian-American economist Justin Wolfers, as well as Financial Times columnist and co-author of the book How to Win a Trade War, Soumaya Keynes.

No 3 em 1 desta sexta-feira (24), o destaque foi que a convenção nacional do PL irá acontecer no próximo sábado (25) e o evento irá oficializar a candidatura do senador e pré-candidato Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), que ainda não encontrou um nome para compor a chapa como vice. Apesar disso, Flávio conseguiu se reconciliar com a ex-primeira-dama Michelle Bolsonaro (PL), após atrito que afetou a campanha. Reportagem: Misael Mainetti. O presidente da Argentina, Javier Milei, desembarca nesta sexta-feira (24) no Brasil para participar da convenção nacional do PL, que irá oficializar a candidatura do Senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) à Presidência da República. A expectativa é de que Milei irá fazer um discurso alinhado à direita Brasileira. Reportagem: Julia Fermino. A campanha do senador e pré-candidato Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) mudou a estratégia e deixou de lado os atritos para passar a atacar a campanha de Lula (PT). A aposta agora é abordar temas como segurança pública e custo de vida. Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) afirmou que irá fazer um “tesouraço” nos gastos do governo que segundo ele “atrasam o Brasil”. A medida é uma referência ao pacote motosserra de Javier Milei na Argentina. O primeiro-ministro de Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, irá se reunir na próxima terça-feira (28) com o presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump. A pauta da reunião será a escalada do conflito entre EUA e Irã no Oriente Médio. Reportagem: Eliseu Caetano. O presidente Lula (PT) afirmou que o Brasil precisa investir mais nas Forças Armadas e na defesa nacional como um todo. Segundo Lula: “Há loucos pelo mundo querendo fazer guerra”. O presidente defendeu que o Brasil tem riquezas muito importantes como as terras raras e as florestas. Reportagem: André Anelli. O jornal britânico Financial Times publicou um artigo onde defende que o Brasil foi o país mais afetado pelo tarifaço americano. O jornal avalia que a tarifa brasileira subiu de 11% para 17,7%, o maior aumento entre os principais parceiros comerciais dos Estados Unidos. As lideranças do Republicanos defendem que o partido siga o mesmo caminho do PP e do União Brasil e adote a neutralidade nas eleições de 2026. Apesar disso, o senador e pré-candidato Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) segue sinalizando em busca de um apoio do partido. Reportagem: João Vitor Revedilho. O Partido Liberal oficializou nesta sexta-feira (24) a candidatura de Douglas Ruas ao governo do Rio de Janeiro. Na convenção partidária, Ruas fez críticas ao ex-governador do estado Cláudio Castro (PL), seu aliado. Reportagem: Misael Mainetti. O senador Cleitinho Azevedo (Republicanos) ainda não confirmou presença na convenção partidária que ocorre no próximo sábado (24). Cleitinho é o líder das pesquisas na corrida pelo Palácio Tiradentes e grande aposta do PL para formar o palanque no estado para a campanha do senador e pré-candidato à presidência da República Flávio Bolsonaro (PL). Reportagem: Rodrigo Costa. O ex-governador de Goiás e pré-candidato à Presidência da República Ronaldo Caiado (PSD) ironizou a reconciliação entre o senador e também pré-candidato Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) com a ex-primeira-dama Michelle Bolsonaro (PL). Caiado afirmou que enquanto ele trabalha pelo futuro do Brasil, os eleitores acompanham o caso da família. Reportagem: André Anelli. O terreno do senador Jaques Wagner em Camaçari, na Bahia, valorizou 115 vezes em 26 anos. A valorização está relacionada à construção de uma rodovia que foi projetada pelo próprio senador em 2011 enquanto JAques era governador do estado. Reportagem: Beatriz Souza.

On this episode of The Ty Brady Way, Ty sits down with Mickie Kennedy, founder of eReleases, to talk about public relations, storytelling, and how small businesses can earn real media coverage.   Mickie shares how he discovered the power of PR while working at a telecom research startup in Washington, D.C. After spending more than a day faxing a press release that produced no response, he realized the problem was not the data. It was the lack of a story.   For the next release, Mickie focused on an unusual spike in Caribbean telephone traffic tied to 1-900 numbers. That story earned coverage in The Economist, Financial Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and several trade publications.   The lesson was simple. Journalists do not want a list of features. They want a story their audience will care about.   Ty and Mickie discuss how businesses can make their news more compelling by sharing a founder story, a customer success story, original data, or a clear reason why the announcement matters. The goal is not to promote the company directly. It is to give the journalist a useful story.   Mickie also explains the difference between earned media and low-cost press release syndication. Some services place releases on websites, but that does not mean journalists or potential customers will see them. The real value comes when a journalist writes an original article about the business.   He shares the story of a company that builds waste and recycling facilities. One trade article led to conversations with cities in Australia and eventually helped generate projects worth tens of millions of dollars. He also describes a flooring company that used media coverage during sales appointments and increased its conversion rate by about 17 percent.   Mickie says media coverage can do more than bring in leads. It can build trust, improve sales, reduce customer churn, and give a business credibility that advertising cannot.   You'll also hear why many entrepreneurs assume PR is too expensive or only for large companies. Mickie says small businesses do not need to hire a costly firm to get results. They need a strong angle, a newsworthy idea, and a willingness to test different stories.   One strategy he recommends is conducting an industry survey. Businesses can partner with a smaller trade association, ask timely questions, and turn the results into original news. Journalists are often interested because the survey gives them fresh data and a reason to cover the company.   The conversation also turns to artificial intelligence. Mickie warns that AI can write a polished press release, but it cannot replace the strategy behind it. He recommends using AI to improve headlines, opening paragraphs, and quotes rather than asking it to create the entire release without direction.   Mickie says about 97 percent of press releases fail to earn media coverage. The releases that succeed usually offer something different. They include original research, a strong story, a useful opinion, or a clear reason for the audience to care.   He also encourages businesses to treat PR as an ongoing campaign instead of judging it by one release. Some ideas will fail. Others may create results far beyond what the company expected.   The episode closes with Mickie reminding small business owners that being small can be an advantage. Journalists often receive more attention for discovering an unknown company doing something new than for covering another announcement from a major brand.   If you want to build credibility, earn media attention, and create stories journalists actually want to share, this episode is for you.

Honderden miljarden dollars investeren in datacenters, taalmodellen of nieuwe AI-producten: het blijkt allemaal niet nodig om beleggers blij te krijgen. Meta, Alphabet, Amazon en Microsoft wisten niet hoeveel en hoe snel ze maar geld in hun producten moesten blijven pompen. Maar nu staat er één bedrijf ver boven hen. Apple vecht opeens weer om de titel van meest waardevolle beursbedrijf ter wereld. Een nek-aan-nek race met Nvidia. Wie wint 'm? En is dit het bewijs dat Apple het bij het rechte eind had en heeft? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. Daarin hebben we het ook over nóg zo'n bedrijf dat volle bak in de investeringen is gevlogen. Meta bouwde als een gek datacenters om maar genoeg computerkracht voor hun modellen te hebben. En nu zitten ze met een overschot. De oplossing: het verhuren van die computerkracht. Ze zijn in onderhandeling met Anthropic om er 10 miljard dollar voor te krijgen. Verder hoor je over slechte cijfers van Ryanair. Laatst werd er nog bijna een passagier uit het raam gezogen, nu raken ze een paar beleggers definitief kwijt. Ondertussen loopt de topman van Boeing glimlachend over een beurs in het Verenigd Koninkrijk omdat hij de weg omhoog voor zijn bedrijf terug heeft gevonden. En we vertellen je over een persbureau, dat al over een beurswaarde van 1 biljoen dollar voor ASML droomt. Te gast: Arend Jan Kamp, van Stockwatch.nl en de podcast Het Beurscafé BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. 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. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Financial Times correspondent Sarah O'Connor talks about her new book We Are Not Machines: The Fight for the Future of Work which is about AI and the coming jobs apocalypse. In this wide ranging conversation with FRDH host Michael Goldfarb, O'Connor looks at ways machines have helped and hurt workers in the past and why people and their governments need to start planning now to avoid apocalyptic changes in society if AI's potential to make many jobs obsolete is anywhere near fulfilled.

Ralph welcomes back his old running mate, Native American activist, Winona LaDuke, who has devoted her life to advocating for Indigenous control of their homelands, natural resources, and cultural practices to talk about her latest incarnation: hemp farmer. Then, we'll speak to Hal Weitzman, from the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business, about how Elon Musk's feud with Delaware may transform corporate America. Plus, we tick off Robert Reich's ten policy prescriptions the Democratic Party should fight for to beat the GOP in the upcoming midterms.Winona LaDuke is an activist, economist, and author, who has devoted her life to advocating for Indigenous control of their homelands, natural resources, and cultural practices. She is also a two-time vice-presidential candidate with Ralph Nader. Ms. LaDuke lives and works on the White Earth Ojibwe reservation in northern Minnesota, where she runs Winona's Hemp & Heritage Farm. She is also a member of the Indigenous Hemp & Cannabis Farmer's Cooperative.I'm looking first at seed sovereignty. We're growing [European hemp] varieties and then we're growing these feral hemp varieties. They're called feral varieties (which of course, that's something that I love) which means that when they eradicated hemp in the 1930s with the Marijuana Prohibition Act—well, they missed some spots. And those guys kept growing. And so 80 years of being illegal—isn't that great? Something that's illegal for 80 years is still with us, rocking out. And so I figure if you grew illegally for 80 years, you are really a tough hemp plant…And so we are growing out these hemp varieties and built a cooperative because we want to own the seeds and we want to own the technology (the value-added processing), and we want to use this hemp as a part of our future as tribes.Winona LaDukeMy grandsons are farming. I don't know who else can say their grandchildren are farming—let me know. My grandchildren are farming. They're running the horses. They're running the farms. You know, that's a retirement plan. My 401k will be worth nothing, but my grandchildren will feed me. This is my strategy.Winona LaDukeHal Weitzman is Executive Director for Intellectual Capital at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, editor-in-chief of Chicago Booth Review, and host of The Chicago Booth Review podcast. A former Financial Times editor and foreign correspondent, he is the author of Latin Lessons: How South America Stopped Listening to the United States and Started Prospering and What's the Matter with Delaware?: How the First State Has Favored the Rich, Powerful, and Criminal—and How It Costs Us All.There is a race to the bottom. There's been a race to the bottom for many decades. That's not new. I think it's accelerated somewhat. Delaware has joined that race from having been something of a “premium product” in terms of incorporating companies—Delaware has become a bit more “cut-price” I would say, and in that sense has followed Texas and Nevada. So the conclusion that we have a race to the bottom and it may be worse than Delaware—actually I think Delaware's already there. So it's not that it's getting worse outside of Delaware, it's getting worse including Delaware.Hal WeitzmanThe trend I think we're seeing is the exclusion of small shareholders completely—regardless of the status of your shares, this is about how big you are. And if you're a small shareholder there is no corporate democracy for you… It was practice in the past for activist groups, campaigning groups, to buy one share of a company and then to go to the shareholder meeting so they could make the point that they wanted to make. Now that kind of shareholder democracy is being encroached on. And the extent now is to say: unless you have a large position (regardless of the size of the company and the cost of the shares), you will not be allowed to bring suits against the executives for the correct running of the company.Hal WeitzmanNews 7/17/26* Our top story this week is New York Governor Kathy Hochul's decision to impose a one-year “pause” on the construction of AI data centers across the state. ABC7 reports that this is the first such moratorium in the nation, despite similar attempts in several states, most notably Maine where Governor Janet Mills vetoed a bill to this effect. Hochul argues that the pause is necessary so lawmakers and regulators can formulate “Guardrails to reduce the risk to our energy grid, minimize land disruption, noise pollution, and protect our natural resources, especially our water supply.” Hochul's move comes amidst a broader push against AI data centers from the left. Semafor reports Senator Bernie Sanders proposed a nationwide ban in March and many progressives running for state and local office in the midterms have made this a cornerstone of their campaigns. According to this piece, “In February, polling from Marquette Law School found 70% of all Wisconsinites agreeing that ‘the costs of the data centers outweigh the benefits.' Among Democrats, the number was 85%.”* Another progressive Member of Congress quite literally stepped into another hot-button political issue this week. While visiting a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank Wednesday, Al Jazeera reports armed settlers stopped the van of Representative Ro Khanna and were “later joined by Israeli soldiers who continued to block the road.” In a video, Khanna points out, settlers can be seen “brandishing M4s [rifles], kicking the tyres of our van, laughing at us, mocking at us, videotaping us.” This continued for over an hour and was only resolved when he reached out to the American Embassy, according to Khanna. Israel has responded to this fiasco by blaming Khanna, accusing the congressman of failing to coordinate his trip with the Israeli government; Khanna retorted that “The [Israeli military] is lying” and called for the arrest of the violent settlers. Conservative political commentator Tucker Carlson excoriated U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, writing “An American member of congress is threatened by foreign terrorists carrying American rifles, backed by a foreign military paid for by American taxpayers, and the US ambassador to that country says not a word in defense of his own countryman…It's too much, too insulting and humiliating to America.”* Following his return from occupied Palestine, Khanna again teamed up with Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky to sponsor an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would have removed the “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative” from the must-pass legislation. Responsible Statecraft describes the initiative as “an unprecedented integration of the U.S. and Israeli military industrial complexes,” by creating “an executive agent within the Department of Defense whose sole responsibility is furthering U.S. and Israeli military tech integration across nearly every facet of the defense process.” This article also notes that “Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described this shift in the U.S.-Israel relationship as ‘my plan.'” However, House leadership is not backing this commonsense, bipartisan amendment. In a letter, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said he would vote against the amendment, calling it “overly broad” and claiming the amendment would “restrict our country's ability to confront Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations in the region who are sworn enemies of both the United States and Israel,” per the Times of Israel. However, Jeffries pledged not to whip votes against the amendment and indeed the House Minority Whip, Congresswoman Katherine Clark, voted for the amendment as did Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, despite the opposition of Jeffries and House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar. The Congressional Progressive Caucus reportedly whipped votes in favor of the amendment.* In more Israel-related news, this week Marco Rubio – who serves as Secretary of State as well as the acting National Security Advisor – announced that the State Department will launch a “sweeping campaign to dismantle…the International Criminal Court.” CNN observes that “The administration's ire against the ICC goes back to President Donald Trump's first term, when it targeted the ICC for seeking to investigate alleged war crimes committed by US forces in Afghanistan,” and that since taking office for the second time, the Trump administration has “imposed a slew of sanctions against ICC officials for their attempts to investigate the US and Israel.” CNN also quotes a State Department official who said that top officials, including Secretary Rubio and US ambassadors, “are calling countries as part of a campaign to diplomatically isolate the International Criminal Court.” It is worth noting that “all American presidents since the ICC's ratification have maintained that the ICC does not have jurisdiction over Americans,” and that Congress even passed a law calling for an invasion and occupation of the Hague if any American serviceman was ever prosecuted by the ICC, implying that this crackdown on the court is not about American sovereignty at all but rather the prosecution of Israeli officials for their war crimes in Gaza.* In another stunning story starring Marco Rubio, the New York Times reports the Secretary of State is functionally “running Venezuela from afar.” The Times story characterizes Rubio's position as the “de facto viceroy of Venezuela,” effectively controlling the country's “finances, the distribution of its natural resources and its government.” This story makes clear that while Delcy Rodríguez, the former Vice President of Venezuela under Nicolás Maduro, nominally occupies the presidency, Rubio is the one really calling the shots, with Rubio setting the conditions on what Venezuela's export revenue “can be spent on, and by whom,” and having the authority to approve or deny key governmental appointments in the country, such as the minister of defense. In short, the United States has established a shocking explicitly neo-colonial regime in the country, fulfilling the gravest prognostications of anti-imperialist critics of American intervention in the Bolivarian Republic.* Closer to home, Bloomberg reports the federal government has officially launched a grand jury investigation into the United Auto Workers and the union's outspoken president, Shawn Fain. The investigation stems from accusations made by the union's Vice President, Rich Boyer, who alleged that Fain used his position to secure benefits for his fiancée and her sister – and when Boyer refused to approve the benefits, Fain retaliated by stripping Boyer of his duties as chief negotiator with Stellantis NV. Fain has called the allegations “false” and is accusing Boyer of seeking to influence the upcoming UAW leadership election. Fain also claims that Boyer is the one retaliating after Fain “refused the vice president's request to hire family members to positions in the union.” Fain has long maintained that the Justice Department, and specifically the DOJ-appointed monitor, Neil Barofsky, has a political grudge against him because “the UAW took an anti-war stance about what was happening in Gaza.” According to Bloomberg, “Both Fain and Boyer have slates running and each is accusing the other of attempting to abuse their positions to benefit family.”* This week, another victim of harassment by the federal government, student activist Mahmoud Khalil, filed a landmark civil rights suit alleging that the government conspired with a number of private groups – including the Heritage Foundation, Betar, and Canary Mission – to “suppress criticism of Israel through a coordinated campaign to dox, jail and ultimately deport student activists.” According to the lawsuit, said activists were “nearly automatically targeted by the Federal Defendants for arrest and removal.” Khalil's lawyers argue that this “public-private partnership” could violate the “Ku Klux Klan Act, a Reconstruction-era law that sought to restrict government coordination with vigilante groups.” The suit is led by the Center for Constitutional Rights. The AP reports “Soon after his arrest, both Canary Mission and Betar boasted of their role in flagging Khalil's noncitizen status to the government.” Since Khalil's arrest, Betar has agreed to “dissolve its nonprofit status,” following a lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James accusing Betar's members of harassing Palestinians.* Turning to the state level, this week 12 state attorneys general, led by California's Rob Bonta, filed an antitrust lawsuit seeking to block the acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery by Paramount Skydance, controlled by the Trump-aligned David Ellison. The proposed, $110 billion merger was approved by the Antitrust Division of the Justice Department last month, which reached the dubious conclusion that the merger is “not likely to result in harm to competition or American consumers.” In the filing, Bonta and the state AGs for Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Washington allege that the merger “would extinguish competition between Paramount and Warner Bros. and inflict substantial harm on movie theatres, basic cable distributors, and, ultimately, audiences nationwide.” This from Reason.* In the world of philanthropy, CNBC reports Warren Buffett, the billionaire chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, has “excluded the Gates Foundation from his sizable annual charitable donations.” As this report notes, the Gates Foundation has been among the top recipients of his annual Berkshire donations, totaling $47 billion worth of Berkshire stock since 2006. The reason for the exclusion of the Gates Foundation has been much speculated upon, in particular, whether it was due to the recent revelations about Gates' relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Asked about this, Buffett said that he had “read a great deal…in terms of what happened, with Bill and Epstein,” calling their relationship “distasteful,” but also saying that he “found nothing in there that was beyond what [he] could picture [himself] doing.” Instead of the Gates Foundation, all of this year's donations will go to foundations linked to the Buffett family.* Finally, British multinational diamond conglomerate De Beers, famous for coining the “A Diamond is Forever” tagline in 1947, reported this week that they plan to halt work at their “flagship” Venetia mine in South Africa as demand for the stones wanes. The BBC highlights both slackening consumer demand as well as competition from lab-grown diamonds, particularly those produced in China. That said, the closing of the Venetia mine – the biggest in South Africa, accounting for over 40% of the country's diamond production – will send shockwaves through that country's already shaky economy. That mine alone employs more than 4,000 people, while the mining sector employs nearly half a million. De Beers said they plan to reopen the mine in two years; in the meantime, they are looking to expand copper mining to keep up with demand from AI data centers.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Episode Summary Trust is the foundation of every customer relationship. But here's the uncomfortable truth: most businesses assume they have it when they don't. PwC's latest research found that 90% of executives believe their customers trust them highly — yet only 30% of customers actually do. That's a 60-point gap. And it's growing. In this episode, Colin Shaw and Professor Ryan Hamilton from Emory University break down the five rules that are guaranteed to build genuine, lasting trust with your customers. These aren't theoretical — they're drawn from decades of real CX work, rooted in behavioural economics, and illustrated with the kinds of real-world examples that make you realise how often companies (and people) get this wrong. What You'll Hear in This Episode: Why trust is earned, not given — and why that changes everything about how you approach customer relationships The authenticity trap: why trying to appear authentic is worse than not trying at all Why you should always tell customers the bad news early — and why hiding it always costs you more in the end The Fiverr story: how a supplier destroyed trust before they'd even started the job Why consistency and reliability are not soft values — they're heuristic signals that your customers use to judge whether they can trust you for the things that really matter How the "emotional bank account" works — and why you need to be in credit before something goes wrong Quote of the Episode: "The danger is people will be too strategic about authenticity. The point is not to act like you're authentic. The point is actually to be authentic." — Professor Ryan Hamilton, Emory University Resources Mentioned: Connect with Colin Shaw on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/colinrjshaw/ Connect with Professor Ryan Hamilton on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/prof-ryan-hamilton/ Beyond Philosophy website: https://beyondphilosophy.com PwC Trust in Business Survey: https://www.pwc.com/us/en/library/trust-in-business-survey.html About the Hosts:  Colin Shaw is a LinkedIn 'Top Voice' with a massive 286,000 followers and 87,000 subscribers to his 'Why Customers Buy' newsletter.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Rory Johnston to the show. Rory Johnston is a Commodity Market Research Specializing in Oil and Gas. Johnston describes an unprecedented period of volatility in oil markets, where the supply-demand balance swung radically within a single month. Following a ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz, a surge of previously stranded tankers created a temporary mini-glut, flipping market structures from severe backwardation into contango. However, this glut proved fleeting as inbound empty tankers, initially driven by the most risk-tolerant owners, have dried up, leaving Gulf loadings constrained by available shipping capacity. Consequently, supply is tightening aggressively again. The most significant factor absorbing the supply shock is China, which swung its crude imports down by five million barrels per day without clear economic damage domestically. Johnston explores speculative explanations, including massive refined product stock releases, a coal-to-petrochemical feedstock switch, or a geopolitical understanding with the US. He also suggests China may be using the crisis as a successful dry run for weathering a potential blockade in a Taiwan conflict scenario. This swing, totaling roughly half a billion barrels, dwarfs the collective releases from IEA member states. Beyond crude, the refined products market, particularly diesel, is critically tight. Diesel crack spreads have soared to staggering levels, driven by drone attacks damaging Russian refineries, prior damage in the Middle East, and China slashing product exports. Johnston clarifies that strategic petroleum reserves function as a supply boost, not passive inventory, and that operational tank minimums at hubs like Cushing primarily affect regional price differentials to discourage exports, not trigger infinite crude spikes. He concludes that the overriding vulnerability is refining capacity, which is easy to target and hard to defend, making North American facilities a potentially valuable geopolitical safe haven in the current drone warfare era.

There is speculation today that the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will become Chancellor when the incoming Prime Minister Andy Burnham announces his Cabinet on Monday. Whoever takes on the role will face quite the in-tray: high debt, low growth, welfare reform, defence spending, and the economic fallout from the US-Israel war with Iran, to name a few issues. So, if it's Shabana Mahmood, how might she fare and what do we know about her? Anita Rani speaks to Lucy Fisher, Whitehall Editor of the Financial Times and Host of the FT's Political Fix podcast.Australian surf and fashion photographer Cait Miers says that on shoots women often criticise and apologise for their looks before a single photo is taken. She is now photographing 1,000 women globally, bare-faced, for a project she has called Laugh Lines. Anita is joined by Cait to talk about her mission to challenge beauty standards and also by Alexis Zahner, author of Real: Reconnecting to Yourself in a World of Likes and Lies, and one of the first women to be photographed for the project.Dr Suzanne Huurman is the only woman to head a country's medical staff in the men's 2026 FIFA World Cup, meaning there is just one woman and 47 men in the lead role for the teams taking part this year. Anita talks to Suzanne about being a trailblazer, how she - as head of medical staff for Curacao's national men's side - got to become only the third-ever female team doctor in the 96-year history of the tournament and what she thinks could be done to increase female representation in football.The Young British Artists, YBA movement of the 1990s is the inspiration for a new novel, Exhibition, by Alex Hyde. The protagonist, Rabble, an aspiring photographer, finds herself in the YBA scene after meeting an artist always referred to in the novel as “you”. Anita talks to Alex about how, through Rabble, her novel explores the inspiration and process of creating art - and the question of ownership, referencing real works.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt

In de Amerikaanse staat Californië wordt mogelijk een referendum gehouden over de vraag of er een aparte miljardairsbelasting ingevoerd moet worden. Deze staat huisvest veel grote techbedrijven, volgens de Financial Times zijn er genoeg handtekeningen verzameld om een referendum te houden. Het gaat om een eenmalige heffing van 5 procent voor de rijkste inwoners van Californië. Een slecht plan, denkt macro-econoom Arnoud Boot. ‘Dit is populisme.’ Het gaat om een eenmalige belasting voor inwoners van Californië met een nettovermogen van meer dan één miljard dollar. Gehuwde stellen tellen als één belastingplichtige. De stemming over de wet vindt gelijktijdig plaats met de tussentijdse verkiezingen in de Verenigde Staten, de midterms. Wat is hier populistisch aan? De vermogensongelijkheid in de Verenigde Staten heeft onacceptabele proporties aangenomen. Vanuit die gedachte is dit initiatief ontstaan. Maar als je mij vraagt of dit de juiste manier is om dat probleem aan te pakken, dan is mijn antwoord: absoluut niet. Het belastingstelsel is niet bedoeld voor willekeurige ingrepen. Het moet zo worden ingericht dat iedereen een eerlijk deel aan belastingen betaalt. Dat kun je niet achteraf met een eenmalige maatregel proberen te corrigeren. Volgens Forbes steeg het gezamenlijke vermogen van miljardairs in Californië van ongeveer 700 miljard dollar in 2009 naar 2,1 biljoen dollar eind vorig jaar. Zij gaan die 5 procent extra belasting niet merken. Maar het gaat niet om de vraag of deze mensen te veel vermogen hebben, dat is wel duidelijk. Het fundamentele probleem zit volgens critici echter in het belastingstelsel. Maar dat geld gaat dan naar verbetering van de gezondheidszorg, dat is toch goed? Dat is zeker goed. Ik ben ook geen verdediger van de enorme vermogens die sommige mensen hebben; die zijn moeilijk te bevatten. Maar je kunt niet elke belastingmaatregel koppelen aan een specifiek goed doel. De overheid heeft democratisch vastgestelde verantwoordelijkheden, waaronder het innen van belastingen via een evenwichtig belastingstelsel. Het argument dat een belastingverhoging gerechtvaardigd is omdat de opbrengst naar een goed doel gaat, is in feite een populistisch argument. We hebben een evenwichtig belastingsysteem nodig, wat niet gedreven wordt door populisten en populisme. Het belastingsysteem moet dus hervormd worden? Het verleden kun je niet veranderen. Dat sommige mensen extreem rijk zijn geworden, daar kun je nu weinig meer aan doen. Die ambitie moet je ook niet hebben. Maar de belastingdruk in de Verenigde Staten is ongelijk verdeeld. Zeer vermogende mensen kunnen hun inkomen en vermogen vaak goed afschermen van belastingen, er is nauwelijks sprake van een belasting op grote erfenissen, waardoor vermogen generaties lang kan worden doorgegeven. Zo creëer je een samenleving met een steeds grotere kloof tussen arm en rijk, en dat is uiteindelijk onhoudbaar. Met een populistische, eenmalige vermogensheffing kun je misschien tijdelijk de onvrede onder de bevolking verminderen, maar daarmee los je het onderliggende probleem niet op. Het belastingstelsel moet fundamenteel worden hervormd en evenwichtiger worden gemaakt. Een eenmalige vermogensbelasting is willekeurig. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On June 10, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York returned two pieces of artwork to Cambodia: an Angkor statue and a sandstone lintel. It's the latest repatriation effort by the U.S.'s premier art museum, and the third time the Met has had to give up Cambodian artifacts specifically. Matthew Campbell's The Man Who Stole The Gods: A True Story of War, Obsession, and a Global Art Conspiracy (Penguin, 2026) dives into the story of the Cambodian antiquities trade, from looted temples in the Cambodian forests, through dealers in Bangkok like Douglas Latchford, and then into museums and billionaire homes in the West. And he also digs into how this trade fell apart: How the U.S. Department of Justice and activists in Cambodia pressured dealers and museums like the Met to give this art back.

As so many large firms went all-in on AI over the past few years, policies to maximize employee AI adoption ranged from incentives to threats. Now, the Financial Times reports many companies are instead emphasizing quality over quantity, faced with both employee backlash and the rising costs of AI tokens. Calling AI leaderboards and policies tying performance reviews to AI usage "a really stupid way to do anything," a legal AI firm's CTO says staff should be rewarded "for being effective and efficient ... not for necessarily using AI.”

Donald Trump's on again off again deal making with the Iranians has hit another flashpoint this week as exchanges of fire on commercial shipping and US military bases in the region stymied negotiations before their 60 day deadline. Although large-scale combat has subsided, the conflict between the United States and Iran is far from over. Nick Carl argues that Tehran has emerged from the war with a new strategic objective: establishing de facto control over the Strait of Hormuz and using it as a tool of coercion against the international community after its traditional sources of deterrence fell short. He also examines the regime's evolving leadership following Ali Khamenei's death, the continued discontent between Iran's rulers and its people, and why Tehran believes it can outlast the United States politically despite suffering major military setbacks. While conventional wisdom suggests Iranian weakness (as discussed in our many conversations with General Jack Keane), Tehran is nonetheless negotiating from a position of confidence. Will the United States remain committed to denying Iran control of the Strait? Can diplomacy succeed without rewarding Iranian aggression? And ultimately, who has the greater will to persist? Will President Trump accept a bad agreement or abandon his deal making desires in pursuit of a more decisive outcome?Nicholas Carl is the Assistant Director for the Critical Threats Project and a Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, where he specializes in the Islamic Republic of Iran. Mr. Carl is the author of reports, analyses, and maps covering Iran's regional strategy and nuclear program, military structure, and politics.

Drawing on his acclaimed book Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress — and How to Bring It Back (a Best Book of the Year in the Financial Times and The Economist), Marc unpacks the two competing tools America has always used against concentrated power — antitrust vs. regulation — and why our government's "endemic diffusion of authority" now means nobody can decide anything, from congestion pricing to clean-energy transmission lines to AI safety.CHAPTERS04:52 — When private projects come back to the public: Warp Speed, DARPA, CHIPS08:55 — Two ways to fight concentrated power: break them up vs. regulate10:52 — Railroads, island communities & the birth of regulation12:29 — The railroad = algorithm parallel20:33 — Why nothing gets built: the diffusion of authority27:30 — "A voice without a veto" and the AI moment32:53 — Where should government draw the line on new tech?37:20 — Dunkelman the pragmatist: there is no simple answer38:21 — Where math and AI can genuinely help public policy40:46 — The lesson we keep overlookingFollow Marc on X [https://x.com/MarcDunkelman]Get Marc's book, Why Nothing Works: https://amzn.to/4pbFvAB]Substack (https://breakingmath.substack.com/)X (https://x.com/breakingmathpod)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/breakingmathmedia/)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/breakingmath.bsky.social)Website (https://www.breakingmath.io/)YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@BreakingMathPod)Follow Noah onInstagram (https://www.instagram.com/profnoahgian/)X (https://x.com/ProfNoahGian)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/profnoahgian.bsky.social)Follow Autumn onX (https://x.com/1autumn_leaf)Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/1autumnleaf.bsky.social)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/1autumnleaf/)Substack (https://substack.com/@1autumnleaf)email: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

HSBC just did something that should make everyone in credit markets stop and ask one very uncomfortable question. If there is nothing to worry about with private credit…why is one of world's biggest banks pulling back from funding the funds that make it work?

It is also refusing to provide “back leverage” to riskier funds. In plain English, HSBC is pulling back bigtime.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.
