As the Supreme Court prepares for a flurry of major opinions in June, legal experts are closely watching high-stakes cases that could reshape executive power, civil rights, and constitutional law. Shannon Bream, FOX News chief legal analyst and Fox News Sunday anchor, joins to discuss upcoming decisions on birthright citizenship, the President's authority to fire federal agency officials, and state bans on transgender athletes. Later, she unpacks the ongoing legal battle over Alabama's congressional maps and why conservative justices are signaling they have no plans to retire. President Trump has pledged broader transparency, even when it comes to declassifying UAP files—or as many of us know them, UFOs. Twice this month, the Trump administration began unsealing United States UFO files officially known as the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters or PURSUE. The files reveal images and other documents related to investigations into unidentified anomalous phenomena. However, the unprecedented release still has many believers questioning the data, creating more questions than answers. Ryan Graves is a former Navy F-18 pilot and co-founder of Americans for Safe Aerospace, who testified before Congress back in 2023 about his encounters with UAPs.

“Abundance isn't God's provision for me to live in luxury; it's His provision for me to help others live.” That line from Randy Alcorn captures the heart behind a financial finish line. When God entrusts us with more, the question is not simply, “How much can I keep?” but “How much can I use for His purposes?” Cody Hobelman, Certified Financial Planner and Certified Kingdom Advisor, joined the show today to share how that question became deeply personal in his own life. Along with his brother Keelan, Cody contributed to FaithFi's new Field Guide, How Much Money Is Enough? But before he taught others how to set a financial finish line, he had to wrestle with it in his own context. The Early Pull of Accumulation Early in his career, Cody's view of money was much like that of many people. He wanted a large income, growing wealth, and the kinds of opportunities that seemed to promise happiness and success—perhaps vacation homes, financial freedom, and a comfortable lifestyle. Those goals were not unusual. Many people begin their careers with an eye toward building, earning, and accumulating. But over time, Cody began to sense that something was missing. After college, he returned to church and began reading Scripture for himself. What stood out to him was how often Jesus spoke about money. Those passages began to reshape the way he viewed his role in managing what God had entrusted to him. When Obedience Begins to Reshape the Heart At the end of 2016, Cody's church went through a series on managing money biblically. At the conclusion, the congregation was invited to commit to tithing in the coming year. After prayer and conversation with his wife, Steph, Cody decided to begin giving 10% of his income to the church in 2017. That step mattered. It was his first move into intentional giving. He began to see that not every dollar he earned had to serve his own lifestyle. God gives resources with purpose, and giving helped Cody begin to discover that purpose. But as he later reflected, his generosity at that stage still felt like “checking the box.” He was giving, but accumulation remained the deeper goal. Tithing became a generous layer atop a life still largely centered on earning, comparing, and building more. He realized he was trying to serve both God and money. The Question That Changed Everything In 2020, Cody's brother Keelan invited him to consider a simple but life-altering question: “How much is enough?” In other words, if God provided more income over the course of his career—or even in a single year—how would Cody know how much was enough to spend on his own lifestyle? And how could he create margin so that additional resources could be used for God's purposes? At first, Cody resisted the conversation. But he could not escape the realization that he was still at the center of his financial world. So he and Steph accepted the challenge. They chose a number that represented a reasonable level of lifestyle spending for a season. That number became their first financial finish line. A financial finish line is a cap on lifestyle spending. Once that line is set, anything beyond it can be directed toward generosity, debt reduction, ministry, or other God-honoring purposes. A Finish Line Before the Increase Interestingly, Cody and Steph set their first finish line when their income was still below that number. Steph was in graduate school, Cody was early in his career, and they still had student loans. They were also hoping to buy a home. So the finish line was not immediately restrictive. It was more future-oriented. But that decision prepared their hearts before additional income arrived. Not long after, Steph graduated and began working full-time. Cody also received a raise. Suddenly, the finish line was no longer theoretical—it was practical. Because they had done the hard work of prayer, conversation, and planning before the increase in income, they already knew what to do. Their finish line helped them avoid simply expanding their lifestyle to match their income. Paying Down Debt to Free Up Generosity At the time, Cody and Steph still had debt. But their growing vision for generosity changed the way they saw it. Rather than viewing debt simply as a financial inconvenience, they began to see it as an obstacle to giving as they wanted to. So even within their finish line, they chose to live on less than they could have in order to prioritize paying down debt. The goal was not merely to become debt-free for their own comfort. It was to remove barriers that limited their ability to participate in what God was doing. From Scorecard to Stewardship Setting a financial finish line changed Cody and Steph's day-to-day life. For the first time, Cody said he truly experienced contentment. He could honestly say, “We have enough.” That contentment reshaped their conversations about money. Instead of asking only what they could afford for themselves, they began asking what God might be inviting them to do for others. They also created a separate “kingdom account,” moving money into a dedicated giving account. Eventually, they used a donor-advised fund as well. That separation clarified the purpose of the money and helped guard against the temptation to use it for their own lifestyle. Money became a tool, not a scorecard. Before setting a finish line, even giving could feel like something to measure or compare. Afterward, generosity became more about obedience, surrender, and availability. Living With God, Not Merely For God Looking back, Cody says the finish line helped him trust God more deeply. It changed the way he viewed work, provision, and the future. Rather than constantly asking, “Will there be enough?” he began asking, “What would God have us do right now?” That shift moved generosity from a financial category into a way of life. It became part of listening to God, responding to Scripture, and attending to the needs around him. How to Take the First Step For someone who feels drawn to the idea of a finish line yet intimidated by it, Cody offers simple encouragement: start with a trial period. You do not have to choose the perfect number. You do not have to answer every “what if” before you begin. Start with three or six months. Choose a reasonable level of spending for your family, your season, and your location. Then see what God reveals as you take the next step. A finish line is not necessarily a one-time decision. It can be revisited and adjusted as life changes. The point is not rigidity—it is intentionality. When we define enough, we are not limiting our lives. We are creating space for greater clarity, contentment, and generosity. God's provision is not merely something to consume. It is something to steward. And when we stop asking only, “How much can I keep?” we become free to ask a far better question: “Lord, how do You want me to use what You've entrusted to me?” FaithFi's new Field Guide, How Much Money Is Enough?, is designed to help you begin that journey and set your own financial finish line.

Defense counsel Jim Griffin confirmed at a press conference that unknown male DNA was recovered from beneath Maggie Murdaugh's fingernails during the original investigation and was never submitted to CODIS for comparison. The defense has indicated it intends to pursue that evidence at retrial.The DNA disclosure accompanies a broader catalog of alleged investigative deficiencies the defense plans to present to a second jury. Tire impressions at the crime scene were reportedly never properly processed. GPS data from Maggie Murdaugh's phone was allegedly overwritten. Crime scene integrity was compromised by weather exposure and foot traffic from family members prior to full processing. The medical examiner reportedly estimated time of death by touch rather than standard forensic methodology. These issues were largely subordinated during the first trial by twelve hours of financial crimes testimony — testimony the Supreme Court has now ordered to be sharply curtailed.Retrial preparation is extensive. The defense is reviewing an eight-thousand-page trial transcript — effectively an impeachment roadmap, as every prosecution witness is now locked into sworn testimony. New expert witnesses are being retained. The defense does not anticipate the retrial commencing before next year.Venue presents a contested procedural question. The defense is considering a change-of-venue motion, but the receiving jurisdiction must approximate Colleton County's demographic composition. Griffin noted that Richland and Charleston counties would likely fail that standard. Harpootlian cited the Pee Wee Gaskins precedent regarding individual voir dire necessitated by pretrial publicity saturation.The Attorney General's reported decision to place the death penalty on the table creates an additional procedural dimension — capital charges automatically trigger individual juror screening, which aligns with the defense's stated preference. The federal civil rights lawsuit against Becky Hill under Section 1983 continues to function as a parallel discovery mechanism. The defense has stated publicly that no plea agreement will be considered.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Here's Steve's full message: —————————————————— From: Steve Scalici Subject: No gasoline, phase 2 "Maybe THE best IFisode I've heard, perhaps because I've been noodling with that inevitable coming world without petroleum…how'd we function, how would society break down, would we be in a Soylent Green-scape? "Seems to me that this too was a corollary of the IF I sent in regarding an aeroplane-less world. My supposition culminated with small self-supporting cities of a certain drivable radius from the city limits. "But overlaying the petro-less factor into the equation, we would devolve berryyyyy quickly to an agrarian localized world perhaps reminiscent of sometime in the 1800s. "The curveball to this is the Industrial Revolution would not, could not be. No power source! This leads me back to my Malthusian philosophy is coming: population does invariably increase when the means of subsistence increase. "Well then the opposite is true…population would curtail as our means of food harvesting ebbs. And it'd happen rather quickly as our food stocks diminish and famine would occur. "Back to the Middle Ages of castles, moats, bows and arrows, and self-sustained populations. "So my newer IF is 'how and what would a powerless world happen, assuming a stasis occurs in, say, 20 years?' "Shout out to my grandson Matteo here as we drive to a gas station to fill up, he posed a mini-IF: where does the gas come from. Tough to explain to a 5-year-old, but then last week's IF struck and I listened to it multiple times with my wife hearing it replayed and yelled 'WTF!'" —— When she's not studying zombie fungus at Harvard or helping us break the universe every week, our very own Gaby Paniccia writes science fiction.

Hosted by Michael Tetreault | Editor-in-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today Episode Overview In one of the most comprehensive episodes in DocPreneur Leadership Podcast history, host Michael Tetreault takes an honest, evidence-based, and encouraging look at the cash-pay and subscription-based primary care landscape — who it serves, how it works, where it's heading, and what every physician and advanced practice clinician needs to understand before making a career-defining decision. This episode doesn't take sides. It takes a clear-eyed look at the full picture — including the parts that don't always make it into the conference keynote. What's Covered in This Episode The Foundation Not all subscription-based primary care models are the same. Two models operating in this space share surface-level similarities but are structurally distinct businesses with different economic logic, different patient populations, and different long-term trajectories. Understanding which one you're considering — and why — changes everything about how you plan. A Lesson From Healthcare History Before committing to any practice model, it helps to understand what happened to the movements that came before it. This episode traces three instructive parallels: the micropractice and ideal medical practice movement of the early 2000s; the decades-long fight for healthcare price transparency and what happened when physicians finally got it; and the rise and reality check of retail health — what scaled, what didn't, and why. The common thread in every model that has achieved durable scale in American healthcare is the same: structural fit with the economic environment, not ideological purity. Two Pathways, One Brand Name The episode walks through both economic models in the cash-pay primary care space — the purist, cash-only, no-insurance model and the employer-integrated model — explaining how each works, who each serves, and what the financial picture actually looks like for physicians considering either path. The revenue math is done out loud. The sustainability data from peer-reviewed research is cited. The patient demographic fit for each model is examined honestly and specifically. Who Each Model Serves — and Where Other Models Fit Better A detailed breakdown of the patient populations each model genuinely serves well — and an honest, evidence-based look at the patient populations where other models may be a better structural fit. Including Medicare-eligible patients, patients with complex chronic disease, lower-income households, and employees of small and mid-sized businesses. The Overlooked Opportunity — NPs, PAs, and Advanced Practice Clinicians One of the most significant and underexplored opportunities in subscription-based healthcare delivery today is the direct-care model as a pathway for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other advanced practice clinicians. The evidence on NP and PA-led primary care outcomes is strong and peer-reviewed. The physician shortage projections make the need urgent. And the organizational infrastructure for advanced practice clinician-led direct-care practices is largely unbuilt — which means the opportunity belongs to whoever moves first. The Organizational Landscape An honest look at what the multiplicity of organizations, coalitions, and alliances in the cash-pay primary care space tells us — and what research on professional association dynamics says about the long-term implications of organizational fragmentation for legislative effectiveness and individual practice planning. One Brand, Two Directions Drawing on four documented historical parallels from the history of American medicine — the AMA and managed care, osteopathic medicine's identity divide, family medicine's emergence as a separate specialty, and the micropractice movement — the episode makes the case that two communities with genuinely different economic interests and regulatory priorities currently sharing a brand name may, consistent with historical precedent, find their own distinct professional homes over time. This is presented as pattern recognition grounded in verified historical evidence — and as practical planning context for physicians building practices today. The Tax and Structuring Update A clear, practical summary of the 2025 "One Big Beautiful Bill" Act changes — effective January 2026 — and what they mean for HSA eligibility of cash-pay membership fees. What qualifies, what doesn't, and why legal counsel is essential before making any representations to patients about tax-advantaged payment options. Eight Questions Before You Commit A practical pre-decision checklist — eight specific questions every physician or advanced practice clinician should be able to answer clearly before committing to any cash-pay practice pathway. Key Takeaways Cash-pay primary care and concierge medicine are not the same model, do not serve the same patient populations, and should not be evaluated as interchangeable alternatives. The purist cash-pay model has grown from approximately 100 practices in 2009 to over 2,100 by 2023 — real and meaningful growth. The financial sustainability data, however, reflects consistent challenges that peer-reviewed research has documented specifically in lower-income markets and solo practice settings. The employer-integrated pathway has stronger structural sustainability — multiple revenue streams, embedded benefit relationships, and documented employer cost reductions of 12 to 20 percent over three to five years. A December 2025 Johns Hopkins study found concierge and cash-pay primary care practices combined grew 83.1 percent between 2018 and 2023. The employer-integrated model is the primary driver of that growth trajectory. Concierge medicine — particularly the PCM model — is not retreating. The global concierge medicine market is projected to surpass $34 billion by 2032 and is growing at a compound annual rate that outpaces most healthcare market segments. The National Academy of Medicine's 2021 Future of Nursing report, AAMC physician shortage projections, and peer-reviewed NP/PA outcomes research collectively point to advanced practice clinician-led direct-care models as one of the most significant underexplored opportunities in subscription-based healthcare delivery. Pattern recognition from healthcare history — price transparency, retail health, the micropractice movement — consistently shows that the distance between a compelling healthcare idea and durable scaled impact is longer and more complicated than early advocacy suggests. Models that have achieved durable scale in American primary care share one characteristic: structural fit with the economic environment, not independence from it.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The Supreme Court overturned everything five days ago. Since then, the AG put the death penalty on the table while running for governor. Buster Murdaugh reportedly called his father selfish and won't visit him. And the defense went on national television hinting at unnamed third parties.Three bombshells. One week. And the retrial hasn't even been scheduled.Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke pull together every thread from their listener Q&A in one conversation. Robin applies FBI behavioral analysis to the political maneuvering—what Wilson's escalation tells you about prosecution strategy versus campaign strategy. He analyzes the family fractures—what Buster's absence communicates to a jury without a single word of testimony. And he examines the defense's third-party hints—whether the evidence supports another suspect or whether the morning-show statements are designed to contaminate the jury pool before selection begins.Tony pushes the listener questions that demand real answers. The picture that emerges is a retrial already being shaped by forces that have nothing to do with what happened at Moselle and everything to do with who benefits from what happens next.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If you or anyone you know has tried to buy a house lately, you know what the housing market is like right now. For many Americans, the whole idea of the American Dream feels like it's slipping further and further out of reach. This is a crisis that is hurting a large demographic, but it doesn't seem like there are any real solutions that can make a dent. Now President Donald Trump says he has the master plan, a strategy that he claims will rescue the American Dream once and for all. But is it genius, or would it backfire and create an even bigger mess? On this episode of Investing in Real Estate, we're taking a look at what this plan would actually mean for the US housing market.

You were taught that elections change policy. Cast the ballot. Flip the seat. Redirect the nation. And that's true — to a point.Elections usually move individuals inside an existing framework. Assassinations tend to reset the framework itself. McKinley dies and Roosevelt remakes the American empire almost overnight. Lincoln falls and Reconstruction quietly disappears before it ever takes shape. Kennedy's motorcade enters Dealey Plaza and the Vietnam briefing rooms change hands.If you actually look at the last century of major American policy reversals, most of them don't follow a ballot. They follow a body. And the important thing is this: they don't just change the players. They change the board underneath the players.This isn't about who fired the shots. This video isn't a whodunit. It's an autopsy of what changed afterward — the contracts, the budgets, the financial architecture, the institutional infrastructure that consolidated each time a particular figure was removed.The pattern isn't ideological. Lincoln, McKinley, Kennedy, RFK, Reagan — different parties, different beliefs, different eras. What matters isn't ideology. It's threat level to deep institutional structure. The pattern doesn't require a secret council to explain it. Institutional self-preservation operates at continental scale across generations.This is the ledger.00:00 — Elections vs. Assassinations01:17 — Welcome and Sources Note01:44 — What Policy Frameworks Actually Are03:21 — Lincoln 1865: Reconstruction and the Collateral System06:29 — McKinley 1901: Roosevelt and Imperial Architecture09:51 — Kennedy 1963: NSAM 263 to NSAM 273 in Four Days12:32 — RFK 1968: The Coalition That Died with Him14:40 — Reagan 1981: The Shooting and the Framework Acceleration16:55 — Why the Pattern Keeps Repeating19:35 — The Pattern Operating Today21:13 — The Ledger Is Still Open23:24 — Reading the Ledger Forward
Trump heads to Beijing this week for one of the most consequential U.S.-China meetings in years — with trade wars, Taiwan, AI, rare earths, and the fallout from the Iran conflict all hanging over the talks. Alice Han and James Kynge break down what Trump and Xi really want from the summit, why China may have more leverage than many in Washington realize, and how Beijing quietly used globalization to accelerate its technological rise. They also unpack a striking new study showing Chinese investors heavily targeted research-intensive firms across Europe and North America — raising a bigger question: did the West help build the competitor it's now trying to contain? Plus, Xi Jinping's military purge is intensifying. China has handed suspended death sentences to two former defense ministers as Xi continues reshaping the PLA ahead of a more dangerous geopolitical era. They discuss why Xi is trying to build a world-class fighting force while simultaneously hollowing out large parts of its leadership.

Our U.S. Healthcare Analyst Erin Wright discusses how health tracking and preventive diagnostics could influence healthcare costs and different industries, from fitness to retail.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Erin Wright, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Healthcare Services Analyst. Today – the emergence of the self-directed patient and its implications. It's Tuesday, May 12th at 10am in New York. A blood test ordered from your phone. A wearable that tracks your sleep or nudges you to move, recover, hydrate, or rethink last night's dinner. Preventive health is moving out of the clinic and into everyday life. And that shift is becoming an investable theme. In essence, healthcare is moving from reactive to proactive. Instead of waiting for symptoms, more consumers are using lab tests, wearables, imaging, and digital tools to spot some these risks earlier. And this shift reaches well beyond healthcare. On our estimates, the U.S. spends about [$]3.4 trillion annually on chronic diseases, including lost economic productivity. About [$]1.4 trillion of 2024 spend was tied to preventable disease. So the big investment question is: can earlier detection and behavior change bend the cost curve? We think expanded preventive testing, screening, and monitoring can help avoid roughly [$]200 billion to [$]800 billion of U.S. healthcare spend by 2050. That assumes preventive testing reduces preventable disease costs by about 10% to 30% based on our analysis. Direct-to-consumer lab testing lets people order lab tests directly, often online, without starting with a traditional doctor visit. We see this as a roughly $4 billion U.S. market, which has more than doubled since 2021. And it's no longer niche. Our AlphaWise survey found that about 34% of respondents completed a voluntary wellness lab test in the past three years. Among users, the average was 3.2 tests, suggesting this is not just a one-time behavior. The most common test was a general health profile, used by about 45 percent of recent testers. Wearables are the other part of the story. Our survey found that 41 percent of respondents currently use a wearable or fitness device, while another 22 percent are interested in getting one. More importantly, people are acting on the data. 34 percent of wearable users today regularly change behaviors or decisions based on their device, and 52 percent even sometimes do so, based on our survey. That creates a feedback loop. A wearable might flag poor sleep. A lab test might show elevated glucose. A digital health tool might suggest changes to diet or exercise, or follow-up care. Over time, prevention starts to feel less like an annual event and more like a daily habit. The sector implications are broad. In healthcare, more testing may initially actually increase utilization as people follow up on results. But over time, earlier detection could obviously support lower-cost of care and better chronic disease management. That also aligns with value-based care, where providers and payers are rewarded for better outcomes and lower total costs, not just simply more services. In consumer sectors, better health tracking could shape food choices, reduce demand for some indulgent categories, and support products tied to hydration, lower sugar, protein, and functional benefits. Fitness may also benefit as gyms evolve from just workout destinations into broader wellness platforms, with recovery and coaching, and preventive health services layered in. Imaging is another emerging area, as screening shifts from reactive diagnostics toward earlier disease detection. Of course, there is some risk that these health tracking and consumer-driven diagnostics trends could still prove to be a wellness craze rather than the new normal. Out-of-pocket costs, privacy concerns, inconsistent interpretations, and limited repeat testing are all real issues. But consumers are clearly taking more control of their health and increasingly asking, “What can I learn before I get sick?” Thanks for listening.

In this episode of Maximize Your Hunt, host Jon Teater and Ethan Tapper, who shares insights from his book 'How to Love a Forest', delve into the intricacies of deer hunting and forest management, exploring the physical demands of tracking deer, the challenges of managing degraded forests, and the strategies for restoring ecological health. They discuss the impact of invasive species and the nuanced use of herbicides in conservation efforts, emphasizing the importance of understanding forest ecosystems and the role of various species in maintaining biodiversity. takeaways Tracking deer can be a physically demanding yet rewarding experience. Maintaining physical fitness through hunting can prepare one for other outdoor activities. Every forest has unique characteristics that require tailored management strategies. Degraded forests can present significant challenges for restoration efforts. Invasive species like Japanese barberry can severely impact forest health. Herbicides can be used responsibly to manage invasive species and promote biodiversity. Understanding historical forest conditions can guide restoration practices. Creating structural diversity in forests enhances resilience and habitat quality. Acorn years can provide opportunities for regenerating oak species in degraded areas. Collaboration with conservation organizations can lead to effective management practices.

In this episode of the TFTP Podcast, Jason Bassler and Matt Agorist sit down with Allan Paul Roberts. Allan is an author and researcher dedicated to exposing the globalist agenda to deconstruct society. In his latest work, The Globalist Plan to Collapse Everything to Usher in a New World Order—In Their Own Words, he utilizes an innovative multimedia approach—including over 170 QR codes—to provide readers with direct evidence of the strategies being used to centralize global power. The conversation explores the origins of Allan's work, specifically the "revelation" that led him to identify the pillars of American society currently under systematic attack. The conversation pulls no punches, moving from the psychological warfare of "state-as-God" idolatry found in both political parties to the hard reality of the corporate-state panopticon. Roberts provides a "Liberty Perspective" on why the state is obsessed with replacing spiritual sovereignty with political loyalty, particularly in how it manufactures consent for global conflicts. We delve into the mechanics of the modern surveillance state, highlighting the massive 62-square-mile data center and power facility recently approved in Box Elder County, Utah, and its implications for national security and individual privacy. The discussion further examines the dual nature of Artificial Intelligence, weighing its potential for innovation against the risks of ethical erosion and mass surveillance. Turning toward solutions, we discuss the growing "privacy-focused" movement among the younger generation, including the rise of Layer-1 privacy blockchains like Zano, the use of VPNs, and the importance of "tokenization" in a digital economy. Practical steps for personal sovereignty are also covered, such as transitioning to non-tracking mobile devices and using physical privacy safeguards like camera covers. The episode concludes with a powerful call to action for listeners to reclaim their digital and physical independence through informed resistance and community-building.

Recording date: 4th May 2026Olive Resource Capital reported strong performance in April 2026, delivering double-digit returns that significantly outpaced traditional mining indices, which posted flat to modest gains. The outperformance was driven primarily by stock-specific gains rather than broader commodity trends, highlighting the fund's emphasis on targeted investment selection.The firm has simultaneously adopted a more defensive posture, increasing cash holdings to over $3 million—more than half of its liquid assets—following the monetisation of its Aurion Resources position after a takeover by Agnico Eagle, along with selective trimming of other holdings. Despite this, the portfolio remains approximately 85% invested, reflecting a balanced approach between caution and opportunity.A key concern shaping strategy is the perceived underpricing of geopolitical risks tied to the Iran-Strait of Hormuz situation. While oil prices remain elevated, management believes equity markets are overly optimistic about a quick resolution and are failing to account for potential prolonged supply disruptions, particularly affecting Asia-Pacific economies. As a result, the fund has reduced exposure to that region and shifted focus toward North American assets, which are viewed as more resilient due to stronger domestic energy infrastructure.The fund also identified a shift in market dynamics from momentum-driven gains to a more selective, catalyst-driven environment. In this new phase, meaningful stock performance depends on significant corporate developments rather than general sector tailwinds.Looking ahead, Olive Resource Capital is positioning around several anticipated catalysts, including economic assessments, resource updates, and active drilling programs across multiple portfolio companies. This strategy aims to generate returns through company-specific developments while maintaining flexibility to navigate potential volatility.Overall, the fund combines strong recent performance with prudent risk management, adapting to both changing market conditions and evolving geopolitical uncertainties.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

A potential two-speed property market is emerging in Australia, and investors who misunderstand upcoming tax changes could find themselves on the wrong side of it. On The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant speaks with Sam Khalil, founder of DPN, about how the 2026 budget could reshape property taxation and investor strategy. Tarrant highlights growing uncertainty around tax settings for new versus existing properties, warning that investors may soon need to adapt to a split system that changes how returns are assessed. Khalil argues that success will come down to strategy, not sentiment, with investors needing to focus on yield, capital growth, and long-term structure rather than reacting to policy noise. The discussion challenges the "new versus old" debate, with Khalil pointing to dual-income new builds, depreciation benefits, and demand-driven locations as key drivers of stronger outcomes. He also warns that many investors are losing ground due to poor property management decisions, with cost-cutting leading to lower yields and long-term asset degradation. The episode closes with a broader policy warning as Khalil argues that housing affordability won't be solved by tax changes alone, but by unlocking supply through planning reform and better land use.

The post WrestleMania 42 roster cuts hit every level of the company, with Kairi Sane, Aleister Black, Zelina Vega, Zoey Stark, Alba Fyre, Nikki Cross, Joe Gacy, Bo Dallas, Dexter Lumis, Erik Rowan, Apollo Crews, Santos Escobar, the Motor City Machine Guns, Tyra Mae Steele, and several NXT prospects all gone. Kairi Sane's release is the hardest one to explain. She was active on television, coming off a singles win over IYO SKY on the April 13 Raw, and appeared to be headed toward a bigger story with Asuka. IYO SKY called the timing unexpected, Bayley said she was struggling to process it, and Kairi thanked fans while saying she would "set sail… in my own time." Aleister Black's exit raises similar questions after wins over Randy Orton, Sami Zayn, and Matt Cardona. These did not feel like talents being phased out creatively. They felt like cuts made while stories were still moving. The Wyatt Sicks were also wiped out, with Nikki Cross, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Erik Rowan, and Bo Dallas all released. Nikki Cross later called her time as Abby the Witch "the honour of a lifetime," tying the group back to Bray Wyatt, Brodie Lee, the Windham family, the Huber family, and the Fireflies who kept that world alive. The locker room reaction showed how heavy the day was. Alexa Bliss honored Nikki Cross and the Wyatt Sicks. Rhea Ripley called it a sad day. Chelsea Green and Piper Niven praised Alba Fyre. Asuka, Bayley, and IYO SKY supported Kairi Sane. Nathan Frazer gave a heartfelt tribute to Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, crediting the Motor City Machine Guns for helping him during his first year on the main roster. At the same time, WWE is pushing new names forward. Ricky Saints is set for his SmackDown debut next week in Tulsa after one final NXT match against Shiloh Hill. Ethan Page and Sol Ruca already arrived on Raw, while Joe Hendry is set for his official Raw debut with a concert. SmackDown also got a jolt from Fatal Attraction, as Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, and Lainey Reid attacked Paige, Brie Bella, Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair, and Rhea Ripley. Blake Monroe is also headed to the blue brand after a vignette for "The Glamour," bringing her résumé as Mariah May, Owen Hart Cup winner, former AEW Women's World Champion, and former NXT Women's North American Champion with her. Cody Rhodes used SmackDown to send a pointed message beyond Randy Orton. Still showing the effects of Orton's punt, Cody called out the "outside forces" affecting his WrestleMania path, saying they are "0-3" and telling them to send their best or stay out of his business. The line appears aimed at TKO influence and connects to past WrestleMania shifts involving Roman Reigns, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and John Cena. Tiffany Stratton also turned a missed WrestleMania into momentum, defeating Giulia to win the WWE Women's United States Championship. The win ended Giulia's 112 day reign and gave Stratton her third singles title in WWE. In her interview with Joey Karni, Stratton said missing WrestleMania gave her a chip on her shoulder, and she is determined to make sure it never happens again. Outside WWE, Lucha Underground suddenly resurfaced after years of silence with a "¿Más?" teaser and the caption "soon." Taya Valkyrie, Willie Mack, Ivelisse, Vinnie Massaro, The Butcher, AJ Francis, Shelly Martinez, Chelsea Green, and Brian Cage all reacted, with speculation already pointing to anything from a YouTube library rollout to something bigger. AAA is also teasing a shift of its own. Marisela Peña Roldán confirmed that a new general manager will be revealed on May 23 in Mexico City after Dorian Roldán asked for the role. She made it clear that nothing in AAA will remain the same once the new GM is announced. Episode 183 is about transition everywhere. WWE is cutting major names while elevating new ones. Cody Rhodes is calling out the power above the ring. Tiffany Stratton is forcing her way back into focus. Lucha Underground is stirring again. AAA is preparing a reset. The whole landscape feels like it is moving at once. Be sure to support the show and follow us @TurnbuckleTavern. Until next week, stay out of the alley and away from the pork and beans. Good luck and good speed.
Controversial proposed landing fee increases at two airports in Mesa, Arizona could have ripple effects nationwide as more airports adopt user fees. What may look like a routine pricing update could significantly impact flight schools, student pilots, and the overall pilot training environment. John Goglia, Greg Feith and Todd Curtis dive into a critical safety concern. As costs rise, pilots may shift training to less expensive, uncontrolled airports where they will miss out on essential real-world experience communicating with air traffic control. That tradeoff could have real safety implications. John brings insider perspective from his work with airport authorities, revealing how fee structures don't always align with the needs of pilots and aviation businesses. Together, the hosts explore how local financial decisions can unintentionally alter training quality, traffic patterns, and ultimately, aviation safety.
