Podcast appearances and mentions of jeff ng

In this special Hungry Ghost Month episode, singer-songwriter and busker Jeff Ng shares the supernatural encounters that have followed him through his musical journey; he recalls waking from sleep paralysis to find a shadow looming over him, hearing a mysterious tenor singing inside an empty old theatre, and receiving applause from an unseen listener while rehearsing alone on a temporary outdoor stage; Jeff also recounts the most moving experience of all—shortly after his grandmother’s passing, an entire front row was inexplicably left vacant at his birthday concert, and as he sang, he faintly saw her seated there, watching over him. 中文简介： 在这期农历七月特备中，创作歌手兼街头艺人黄长俊 Jeff Ng 分享伴随其音乐旅程而来的灵异经历；他曾在“鬼压床”时看见一道黑影，也曾在古老剧院留宿期间，听见空无一人的舞台传来神秘男高音演唱他们排练的歌曲；一次深夜在临时舞台独自彩排时，他更在演唱结束后听见看不见的“观众”为他拍手叫好；而最令他难忘的，是祖母离世不久后，他的生日演唱会第一排竟被宾客不约而同地留空，当他唱起歌曲时，隐约看见祖母坐在那里，静静地看着他。See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After three years of La Niña conditions, climate prediction models are forecasting a transition to El Niño later this year. This could mean lower rainfall across parts of Asia, among other effects, and has market implications, particularly in commodity- and consumer-related sectors. A switch to El Niño could also exacerbate the warming effect of climate change and see global temperatures temporarily breach the 1.5°C threshold of the Paris Agreement for the first time. From an ESG and climate change investing perspective, new heat records could refocus the lens on adaptation, which, so far, has proven to be an under-invested theme. J.P.

Jeff Ng, Senior Treasury Strategist at HL Bank, helped us kick off the second half on Prime Time to assess China's PMI print, how rising COVID infections and a more hawkish Fed are impacting his 2H projections, and key risks and opportunities he's watching out for in the next 6 months.
