Deze aflevering duiken we in de bijzondere wereld van de grondstoffenmarkt. En de wilde bewegingen die handelaren maken. ING ziet de vraag naar complexe derivatenconstructies exploderen, nu bedrijven worstelen met margestortingen en extreme prijsschommelingen. We proberen in Jip & Janneke taal te kijken hoe ING precies scoort. Wat het betekent voor het aandeel. En: klan ING nóg meer geld verdienen met deze onrust? Ook hebben we het over SK Hynix. De maker van geheugenchips was even Samsung voorbij als meest waardevolle beursbedrijf van Zuid-Korea! Best knap, als je je bedenkt dat het bedrijf eerder nog bijna failliet ging. Verder staan we uitgebreid stil bij het overlijden van Alan Greenspan. De voormalig Fed-voorzitter die maar liefst 100 jaar is geworden. Je hoort waarom hij zo bejubeld werd, maar ook waardoor hij (aan het einde van zijn termijn) werd beschuldigd van de grootste financiële crisis ooit. Verder in dit beurstheater: Aalberts succesvol terug in de AEX Easyjet wijst overnamebod drie keer op rij af Aandeel van Alphabet dondert in elkaar SpaceX wordt wéér gedumpt op de beurs Keir Starmer stopt als premier, maar markten rustig Baas Nike gelooft in Nike, terwijl de rest dat niet echt doet Warren Buffett's lievelingetje ligt overhoop met de Amerikaanse belastingdienst Te gast: Stan Westerterp van Bond Capital Partners 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.

A new project from bassist Dave Ambrosio unearths jazz compositions from the 1960s that reflect the progressive politics and musical spirit of the time. Recorded for the Blue Note label, many of the original songs were shelved for years before being released. A new album titled Civil Disobedience features new versions of those songs recorded by Ambrosio's band of the same name. They will perform an album release show at Joe's Pub on June 11.

You wake up, brew the coffee, open GitHub, and there it is. Another pull request on your open source project. Thirteen thousand lines added. No issue filed first. No discussion. Just "here, please review this for me." Over the past year, GitHub activity has spiked roughly twelve times in a few short months, and a huge chunk of that signal is landing on the same small group of maintainers who were already stretched thin. The curl bug bounty got buried under AI-generated noise. Jazzband, the home of Django classics like pip-tools and the Django debug toolbar, hit what its maintainer called an "apocalypse" and started sunsetting. Even CPython just shipped fresh guidelines on AI-assisted contributions this week. So what does all of this actually look like from the receiving end of the pull request? On this episode, Paolo Melchiorre joins us to tell that story from inside the maintainer's chair. Paolo is a director of the Django Software Foundation, an organizer of PyCon Italy, a Django Girls coach, and he has spent the past year carefully collecting examples of how AI is reshaping open source contributions. The good, the bad, and the extra fingers. We dig into his PyCon US talk on AI-assisted contributions and maintainer load, why AI is best understood as an amplifier rather than a new kind of contributor, the wildly different policies across 86 open source foundations, whether projects banning AI today are reacting to last year's models.

Békebeli dallamok, szívmelengető hangulat és laza elegancia - ezen a héten a Hot Jazz Bandről lesz szó. Arról a formációról, amely mára megkerülhetetlen szereplője a magyar jazzéletnek, és immár 40 éve áll töretlen sikerrel a színpadon. De hogyan lehet a kötelező sorkatonaságban töltött időből valami olyat kihozni, ami végül országos, sőt határokon átívelősikert hoz, és évtizedeken át szerez örömet a zenerajongóknak? És mi közemindehhez a hazai színházi élet krémjének? Ezen a héten Bényei Tamás, a zenekar egyik alapító tagja a Bebop vendége, és más érdekességek mellett erről is mesél.A műsor háziasszonya: Náray Erika.

After we hit “stop” on our last episode, Tight Ship or Jazz Band?, we realized the conversation wasn't over. The tension between discipline and flexibility kept tugging at us — and stirred up a few stories (and laughs) we hadn't yet shared. So we're back, diving deeper into the power and pitfalls of routine, the magic of improvisation, and why finding that balance matters more than ever in today's workplace. In this follow-up episode, Bob ‘n Joyce: • Unpack why some habits feel safe but may be limiting innovation • Talk about real-life moments when “flugidity” made all the difference • Explore how leaders can create cultures that flex without falling apart • Challenge listeners to reexamine what structure they're clinging to — and why Whether you're running a tight ship or playing in a jazz band, this encore conversation is for anyone trying to lead with more ease, creativity, and courage.

Bob ‘n Joyce riff on how much structure is too much — and when it's time to improvise. In this episode, they dive into the ongoing tug-of-war between discipline and flexibility — habits that create stability vs. the adaptability that sparks innovation. Once upon a time, businesses prized routine, rituals, and predictability. But in today's fast-moving world, research suggests agility and openness may be even more crucial. So, which is it? The truth may lie somewhere in the messy, magical middle. In this episode, Bob ‘n Joyce: • Coin a new word: flugidity – the courage to challenge routines that no longer serve the business • Reveal how rigid habits and SOPs can create dangerous blind spots • Explore what's changed in the workplace to shift the balance toward flexibility • Talk about the magic of mastering your craft and dancing in the moment If your weekly ritual includes tuning in to us — well, that's one habit we fully support. So grab a snack, get comfy, and let's jump in.
