Throughout history, scholars have sought ways to access the "lost knowledge" of the ancient world. In recent years, with the advent of artificial intelligence, major strides have been made toward decoding the mysteries kept within mysterious ancient texts like the famous "Voynich manuscript," which was composed centuries ago in a mysterious language that remains undeciphered. The challenges that such texts present to scholars also raise a question: would we be any more successful in decoding messages sent to Earth from space by intelligent aliens? This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at the efforts by scientists to unlock mysterious ancient texts, as well as the search for evidence of communication from intelligent extraterrestrials, and finally, how the intersection between archaeology and interstellar communication culminates in the debate about possible "Paleo-SETI" and the prospect that Earth may have been visited by extraterrestrial visitors in ancient times.

In Episode 2 of this Awakening series, we touch on a powerful reframe: “What If You're Not Broken - You're Just Out of Alignment?” In this episode, Dr. Diane Van Staden explores the concept of Quiet Burnout and the feelings of misalignment that many clinicians experience. She emphasizes that exhaustion may not indicate a personal flaw but rather a signal that one's work no longer aligns with their evolving values and identity. The episode encourages self-reflection and compassion as a means to navigate these feelings and find clarity in one's professional journey. Many clinicians mistake exhaustion for personal failure, when it's actually a call for change. Don't miss the next episode which offers compassion, clarity, and relief - especially if you've been trying to fix yourself instead of questioning the environment you're in.   MORE WAYS TO CONNECT: Follow our LinkedIn page:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/life-beyond-clinical-practice/    Book a Clarity Call with Dr Diane https://calendly.com/lbcp/strategy-call    Join the Movement on Instagram: @lifebeyondclinicalpractice  Rate and Review the show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/life-beyond-clinical-practice-healthcare-careers-professional/id1713086617    Enjoyed this episode?  We think you'll enjoy this one too https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/123-are-you-sitting-on-untapped-potential-as-a/id1713086617?i=1000740184591     

Secret Sasquatch Research Facility ReportThe report describes a classified U.S. military research program, initiated in 1987 after a Sasquatch was killed by a train, that has expanded over 37 years to involve over 100 personnel in a heavily secured underground facility inside a mountain. Specimens and Facility107 cadavers (various ages and subspecies) stored in freezers.13 living specimens, acquired at significant human cost (multiple helicopter crashes attributed to capture attempts, officially covered as training accidents).Access requires passing three checkpoints; an elevator descends over 100 feet to the research levels.Key Biological FindingsAnatomy: Larger and denser than humans, with two extra ribs forming natural armor capable of stopping 30-caliber rounds; extremely dense skull (vulnerable only via eye socket or base); consumes entire prey (including bones) every 3–4 days.Genetics: 48 chromosomes (like apes, two more than humans), indicating not a human subspecies.Camouflage: Generate electric current through hair to reflect surroundings (electric camouflage); believed to also power night vision (glowing eyes when active).Vocalization: Three sets of vocal cords produce infrasound. Males induce fear, anxiety, confusion, or temporary memory loss; females produce calming/confusing effects that pacify prey.Communication: Use clicks, grunts, hand signals, and infrasound; live in hierarchical groups led by one alpha male.Social and Reproductive BehaviorStrict hierarchy; adult males fight to the death if females are present but can coexist without females.Females breed only after prior offspring reach 3–4 years; usually single births; young cling to mother for first year.Different responses to staff: calm and accepting with female staff; cautious or aggressive with male, uniformed, or armed staff.Female specimens have projected vivid mental images (“waking dreams”) to female staff (capture, childbirth, food preferences); no such events with male staff.Tracking and ReleaseFour non-aggressive specimens released with GPS implants.Tracked individuals follow long migration routes (e.g., eastern Texas to northern Ontario) or move 40–50 miles per night, staying weeks in one area.Signals sometimes vanish for days, suggesting underground cave travel.Distinct musks emitted for breeding, threat, or other contexts.The program prioritizes military applications (survivability, camouflage, infrasound weapons) and maintains extreme secrecy to prevent technology theft or public disruption.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

Today, we are joined by Nick Baltas to examine how narratives, signals, and structural design are reshaping trend following at the start of 2026. The conversation moves from investor storytelling and information digestion to a sober review of what truly drove dispersion in 2025. We explore why speed and universe choice mattered more than expected, why recent outcomes may be misleading, and why reacting to performance is often a mistake. The discussion then turns technical, unpacking new academic research on nonlinear momentum, signal construction, and the deeper mechanics behind trend following's defensive behavior during stress. The episode closes with a reminder that discipline, not prediction, remains the strategy's core advantage.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Nick on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Introduction and welcome01:05 - A disrupted start to 202603:10 - Narratives, information, and price formation07:06 - Why stories often fail to move markets09:31 - Recurring themes and market attention10:59 - Strong early conditions for trend following12:01 - Dispersion across strategies in 202515:06 - Familiar patterns in an unfamiliar year18:42 - Speed versus universe in trend design23:17 - Why recent outperformance can mislead31:08 - Institutional views on trend following40:21 - Nonlinear time series momentum research50:30 - Autonomy of trend and crisis...

CannCon and Alpha Warrior deliver SITREP Episode 140 with a focused assessment of emerging pressure points across domestic and international theaters, emphasizing why timing, restraint, and pattern recognition matter more than reaction. The discussion moves through recent geopolitical developments, narrative escalations, and institutional stress indicators, highlighting how information warfare and media amplification are being used to provoke premature conclusions. The hosts examine overlapping signals tied to foreign policy posture, internal instability, and economic leverage, stressing that visible noise often masks quieter operational shifts. Throughout the episode, CannCon and Alpha Warrior caution against emotional engagement, reinforcing the importance of discipline, preparedness, and clarity as multiple fronts continue to converge. The episode frames the current moment as one where patience and situational awareness are essential, warning that misreading signals can be as dangerous as ignoring them altogether.

Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday called on China and Canada to advance the building of a new strategic partnership with a sense of responsibility toward history, the people, and the world, when he met with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Carney is currently in China on a four-day visit, the first by a Canadian prime minister in eight years, meeting both President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang. Ottawa has called the trip "consequential and historic" as Canada looks to reduce its reliance on the United States and strengthen ties with China. What signals does this visit send for the future of China-Canada relations? Can both sides ease tensions over tariffs and trade disputes? And will this visit pave the way for deeper cooperation in key areas such as trade, technology, and environmental policy?

Listen to the article with analysis from the author:  There are multiple indicators that the US will soon launch an attack on Iran. Iran and the US appear to be positioning their military for war, and a Western military official warned that an attack could be imminent.  A Western official told Reuters on Wednesday, “All the signals are that a U.S. attack is imminent, but that is also how this administration behaves to keep everyone on their toes. Unpredictability is part of the strategy.” The US appears to be on the brink of war with Iran over President Donald Trump's threats to intervene in Iran if the government continued to kill protesters. Hundreds of people have died since protests broke out in Iran in late December.  Trump has encouraged and vowed to assist the demonstrators. Some protests have turned into riots, and members of the Iranian security forces have been killed.  The President has suggested that he could take military action against Iran for killing protesters. Multiple reports have said the White House is considering strikes on non-military targets, sanctions, cyber warfare, and restoring the internet in Iran.  In recent months, Trump has also threatened to attack Iran for rebuilding its civilian nuclear program and its missile sites.  The US is moving its military assets in the Middle East in preparation for Iranian retaliatory attacks. Iran has said that it is prepared for an attack and will respond with strikes on US bases in the Middle East and Israel.  European airlines are rerouting flights in preparation for a potential conflict.  In a sign that Trump may be backing away from strikes on Iran, the President said Wednesday that Iran had called off planned executions of alleged rioters.

Jon Herold approaches the January 14 episode with an intentionally optimistic lens, reacting to a challenge to focus on positive developments surrounding President Trump and current events. The show opens with viral coverage of Trump flipping off an autoworker during a Ford plant visit and the media fallout that followed, using the moment to critique performative outrage and narrative framing. Jon then pivots to markets, highlighting record highs across Bitcoin, silver, gold, equities, housing prices, and government debt, arguing that simultaneous extremes signal deeper structural issues with fiat systems. The episode covers new nominations replacing Steven Mnuchin at multiple international financial institutions, questions around IMF and World Bank influence, and continued scrutiny of Epstein-related subpoenas involving the Clintons. Internationally, Jon examines Greenland's strategic importance, Danish intelligence warnings, NATO dynamics, and Trump's statements on national security. Additional segments touch on Iran, Venezuela narratives, media credibility, telecom outages, and the broader theme of questioning consensus narratives rather than accepting packaged explanations.

The U.S. labor market ended the year with an unemployment rate of 4.4%, reinforcing expectations that the Fed will keep interest rates steady at its meeting later this month.While the jobless rate was low, it was a lackluster year of job gains, which is a trend that could persist in 2026.Employment increaed by 50,000 jobs from the prior month in December on a seasonally adjusted basis. Of the 525,000 jobs gained for the full year, it was very front loaded as approximately 84% of the jobs were added during the first four months of the year.If you are in search of optimism after that report, some economists point towards a couple of factors that could benefit the economic outlook for 2026.The economy is expected to gain momentum due to the delayed effects of late-2025 rate cuts and the tax incentives of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. While these tax cuts are expected to outweigh the cost of recent tariffs, the bill's reduction in certain social programs remains a point of concern for low-income demographics.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

What if your bowel movements are one of the clearest signals of your metabolic health, stress levels, and ability to heal? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, host Ben Azadi sits down with functional gut health practitioner Liz Roman, widely known as “The Poop Queen,” to unpack a topic most people ignore, but their body never forgets: bowel movements. Liz explains how stool quality can reveal metabolic dysfunction, poor fat digestion, dysbiosis, sluggish bile flow, and even hidden stress patterns that slow healing. Together, they break down constipation root causes, hydration and electrolytes, fiber bio-individuality, antibiotics recovery, liver and bile support, stool testing options, and how fasting can support gut repair when done the right way.   Key Topics Covered What HRV has in common with gut recovery and nervous system regulation What your poop can reveal about metabolism, digestion, and inflammation Signs of poor fat digestion (floating stools, greasy film, stool appearance) Why stress, dehydration, and the standard American diet drive constipation The squatty potty position and why it supports easier elimination The gut-liver connection: bile flow, endotoxins, and metabolic slowdowns Fiber debate: why it depends on the person, and how to increase it safely Antibiotics and the microbiome: why one round can disrupt the gut long-term Bone broth benefits and who should avoid it due to histamine intolerance Fasting: autophagy, meal spacing, and how to break a fast correctly Stool testing options and why symptoms still matter most Resources and Links

Major buy signals are flashing for Bitcoin and Ethereum, and the setup suggests this could be the final opportunity before a powerful Q1 breakout. In today's episode, we break down the key indicators, on-chain data, and market structure that are pointing to a potential blastoff. 

You just walked a patient through the perfect treatment plan. The clinical exam went smoothly. Your explanation was clear. The parent nodded along. Then you open the financial folder and watch their face change. “This feels like a lot of money.” Your stomach drops. Your mind races through rebuttals. You feel the conversation slipping away. Here’s what most treatment coordinators miss: that moment is not the problem. It’s the opportunity. Every objection you hear is a patient asking you to guide them through uncertainty. When you reframe resistance as a request for leadership, everything about your consults changes. Why Patient Objections Happen In Orthodontic Consultations Orthodontic treatment is not an impulse buy. It costs thousands of dollars. It takes months or years. It requires trust in someone who just met your family twenty minutes ago. If patients could confidently make five to seven thousand dollar healthcare decisions on their own, treatment coordinators would not exist. There would be no consult rooms. No case presentations. Patients would click “buy now” and show up for their first appointment. The fact that objections exist proves people need guidance. They want the outcome. They crave confidence. They’re asking you to help them feel safe moving forward. What sounds like resistance is actually uncertainty reaching for direction. When a parent says they need to think about it, they’re not saying no. They’re saying they don’t yet have enough emotional clarity to say yes. When someone mentions cost, they’re not attacking your fees. They’re asking you to bridge the gap between price and value in a way that makes sense for their family. Patient objections in dental practices surface because people care deeply about making the right choice. They care about their child’s smile. They care about their budget. They care about whether this decision will pay off years from now. That care creates anxiety, and anxiety creates questions that sound like obstacles. Your job is not to overcome those obstacles. Your job is to guide people through them. Free Growth Session The Mindset Shift That Transforms Case Acceptance Most orthodontic teams are taught to treat objections as barriers to crush. That language alone creates a fight you don’t need to have. Patients are not pushing back to say no. They’re reaching out for validation so they can say yes. They want to know their concern is normal. That other families have felt the same way. That their fear makes sense. That someone who does this every day understands the weight of the decision sitting in front of them. When a patient says, “This feels like a lot of money,” they’re not attacking your treatment plan pricing. They’re asking if this investment delivers results worth the sacrifice. When they say, “I need to talk to my spouse,” they’re not stalling. They’re honoring the fact that financial decisions this size require partnership. Shift from defending to guiding and watch the entire tone flip. The consult becomes collaborative instead of transactional. Patients lean in instead of pulling away. The energy in the room changes because you stopped treating their concern as a problem and started treating it as a signal. That signal tells you exactly what the patient needs to hear next. Listen for it. How Orthodontic Teams Accidentally Create Resistance Here’s the truth most teams miss: resistance rarely starts when the objection leaves their mouth. It begins earlier in the patient consultation process. Patients do not suddenly decide to object at the financial discussion. Objections are the result of misaligned pacing, unmet emotional needs, or broken rapport that occurred several steps before they said a word. Maybe you rushed through the clinical explanation because you had another patient waiting. Maybe you skipped the step where you ask what’s most important to them. Maybe your body language shifted when you opened the financial folder. These micro-moments stack up, and by the time you present fees, the patient is already guarded. This is why scripts for handling objections fail. Even the best language collapses if the person delivering it feels uncomfortable talking about money or doubts the value of the treatment. Patients sense this instantly. Confidence, or the lack of it, is communicated nonverbally long before you discuss numbers. Your tone, your pace, your posture, all of it telegraphs whether you believe in what you’re offering. When you rush to explain, justify, or counter objections, patients feel unheard. When you lean on memorized responses, they feel managed. Both reactions raise resistance instead of lowering it. People do not buy when they feel guarded. They buy when they feel safe. Safety comes from connection, not convincing. Free Growth Session Why Leadership Beats Language Every Time in Patient Consultations The most effective orthodontic consultations are not driven by clever phrasing. They’re driven by calm, empathetic leadership. Patients trust certainty that’s quiet, not loud. They trust confidence that doesn’t need to prove itself. They trust professionals who believe fully in both the provider and the outcome. That belief shows up in how you hold silence, how you answer questions without defensiveness, and how you stay present when the conversation gets uncomfortable. Empathy must come before explanation. Patients decide emotionally first. Logic only works after anxiety drops. When you lead with education instead of empathy, you overwhelm people who are already nervous. You pile information on top of fear, and fear wins every time. When you lead with empathy, education becomes welcome instead of threatening. Picture a parent sitting across from you. Their thirteen year old needs braces. They’ve already Googled horror stories about pain and cost. They’re worried about whether their insurance covers enough. They’re concerned their kid will hate them for making them wear metal. They’re calculating whether they can afford this and still take the family vacation they promised. Now imagine you open with, “Let me walk you through our payment options.” You just skipped the part where you acknowledge everything swirling in their head. You treated them like a transaction instead of a person. Instead, try this: “I know this is a big decision. A lot of families feel nervous about the cost and the time commitment. That’s completely normal. Let’s talk through what matters most to you, and we’ll figure out the best path forward together.” See the difference? You just lowered their guard. You made space for their anxiety. You signaled that you’re here to guide, not pressure. Now they can actually hear what you say next. This is why objections handled with patience and validation often dissolve on their own. The patient wasn’t looking for a debate. They were looking for reassurance that someone gets it. What High Performing Orthodontic Teams Do Differently High performing teams do not eliminate patient objections. They normalize them. They understand that objections are signals, not problems. Signals that something needs to be clarified, slowed down, or emotionally supported. They don’t view objections as roadblocks. They view them as guideposts showing where the patient needs more help. These teams stay externally focused instead of retreating into their own heads. They watch body language. They notice breathing, posture, tone, and energy. They catch the micro-expressions that reveal doubt before the patient even says a word. They stay in sync with the patient instead of racing toward the close. They treat objections as moments of alignment rather than conflict. Instead of trying to win an argument, they guide the patient back to clarity. They ask open ended questions like, “What part of this feels uncertain for you?” or “Help me understand what’s holding you back.” These questions invite honesty instead of triggering defense. High performers also debrief after tough consults. They don’t just shrug off a “no” and move to the next patient. They ask themselves: Where did I lose rapport? What signal did I miss? How can I improve the orthodontic patient experience next time? This approach doesn’t feel like selling. It feels like leadership. And leadership is what patients are looking for when they walk into your practice. Free Growth Session Five Moves to Improve Case Acceptance In Your Next Consult If objections feel heavy or frequent in your orthodontic practice, start here. Reframe objections internally before responding. They’re not attacks. They’re requests. When a patient voices a concern, pause for one full breath before you answer. That pause lets you shift from defense mode to guide mode. It also signals to the patient that you’re really listening. Acknowledge emotion before explaining anything. Validation lowers resistance faster than information. Say things like, “I hear you. That makes sense.” or “A lot of families feel that way at first.” You’re not agreeing with the objection. You’re acknowledging that it’s real for them. Pay attention to where objections are being created earlier in the process. Many are preventable through better expectation setting and rapport building. If patients consistently object to cost, ask yourself: Did I build enough value before I presented fees? Did I connect treatment outcomes to what they told me they care about? Focus on connection first, solutions second. Patients cannot hear logic when they feel unseen. Spend more time in the discovery phase. Ask what brought them in today. Ask what they’ve heard about braces. Ask what concerns them most. The more you understand their world, the easier it becomes to speak directly to their needs. Build conviction in the outcome, not just the script. Confidence is felt before it’s heard. If you don’t fully believe that your practice delivers life changing results, patients won’t believe it either. Spend time remembering why you do this work. Look at your before and after photos. Read testimonials. Reconnect with the transformation you create every day. That conviction will show up in your voice, your pace, and your presence. Objections Are Where Trust Gets Won In Orthodontic Consultations In orthodontics, trust is not built by avoiding objections. It’s built by how you show up when they appear. When teams stop bracing for objections and start welcoming them, consults become calmer, clearer, and more effective. Patients feel supported instead of sold. Decisions feel aligned instead of pressured. Case acceptance rates climb because people finally feel safe saying yes. Objections are not the moment the sale is lost. They’re often the moment trust is won. Every concern a patient voices is a chance to prove you’re different. A chance to show that you’re not here to push. You’re here to partner. The practices that win are not the ones with the smoothest talkers. They’re the ones with the steadiest leaders. The ones who stay calm when patients get nervous. The ones who listen more than they speak. The ones who make people feel seen, heard, and supported through one of the biggest decisions they’ll make for their family. Your patients aren’t resisting you. They’re asking you to lead. So lead. Start today by changing how you think about the next objection you hear. See it as an invitation. Respond with empathy. Guide with confidence. Watch what happens when you stop defending and start connecting. That’s how you transform case acceptance. That’s how you build a practice people trust. That’s how you create results that stick. Free Growth Session The post Why Orthodontic Objections Disappear When You Do This! appeared first on HIP Creative.

Nick Sirianni, AJ Brown CONFRONTATION Signals Eagles DIVORCE in MELTDOWN! Kevin Patullo is DONE!

As 2026 gets underway, early market signals are already diverging. In this episode of Supply Chain Secrets, Caroline Weaver and Lars Jensen break down where freight rates are heading post-Chinese New Year, what the latest Container Trade Statistics reveal about global demand, and why North America continues to lag the rest of the world.They also explore escalating geopolitical risks — from Iran and the Strait of Hormuz to Greenland and terminal ownership — and what these flashpoints could mean for global shipping lanes, capacity, and pricing. Finally, the conversation returns to a familiar conclusion: volatility isn't going away, and understanding the gap between quoted and paid rates is becoming more critical than ever.A timely look at what's shaping early 2026 — and why shippers should stay alert.

What if the most important lessons from 2025 aren't found in any single chart, but in how pressure quietly shifted across the system? In this episode, we step back from predictions and take a pattern-based look at what actually mattered over the past year in Norwegian salmon farming and what those same signals suggest we should be watching in 2026. By examining how business conditions, biological performance, environmental stress, and regulation interacted, we unpack why weak prices reshaped decision-making, why fish health improved despite record temperatures, how sea lice pressure continues to build beneath the surface, and why regulation remains the hard ceiling on growth. The goal isn't to draw clean conclusions, but to understand trade-offs. Where risk was absorbed, where it was deferred, and where pressure is likely to surface next as the industry moves into a more constrained future. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

Dave Tourjé: You Have to Destroy What You Create to Become FreeWhen Dave Tourjé was two years old, he had a box of wooden blocks. Every day he'd dump them on the floor, stack them into towers of color, admire what he built—then destroy it and start over.That ritual never stopped.Tourjé is a painter, a punk rock musician, a skateboarder, and a founding member of the California Locos—a collective of LA artists who represent the city's raw, multicultural energy. When he sat down with me for Audio Signals Podcast, we talked about survival, rebellion, and what it really takes to stay free as an artist."You have to learn to destroy what you're creating to really become free," Tourjé told me. "Otherwise you're gonna be trapped by your own creation."He calls himself a lucky survivor of the eighties. Born in 1960, raised in Los Angeles, he hit the punk rock scene at 19, got his first skateboard at 7, and was riding swimming pools by the time urethane wheels made it possible. He studied art on scholarship but quit when they asked him to do papier-mâché in college. "That was third grade for me," he said. "I just said, fuck this. I'm outta here."He's the only practicing artist from that program.When galleries started selling his concrete and steel furniture around the world, Tourjé thought they'd embrace his paintings too. Instead, they told him to stick with what was selling. When collectors wanted commissioned work in different colors, he walked away. "I was not built to do it," he said. "So I bowed out."Instead of finding a patron, he built one. A construction company that runs without him—a machine that pays him without requiring him to owe anything to anyone. "It's going to be my patron," he explained. "It's a similar model, but without all the social implications."That freedom let him focus on the California Locos, a collective he assembled around 2011 with friends who were all leaders in their own corners of LA culture—surf, skate, street art, tattoo, photography. "We are basically Los Angeles," he said. "A very honest reflection."Their book, Renaissance and Rebellion, tells the story from the sixties to now. It's published by Drago in Rome and distributed internationally. They're currently showing at the California Surf Museum in Oceanside, with museum shows lined up for 2027 and Spain on the horizon.But the moment that stuck with me came at the end of our conversation. We talked about how musicians destroy as they create—every live performance disappears the moment it's played. "It's like painting a painting that as soon as you put it down and you go to get the next paint, the paint is gone."And when someone looks at his paintings and sees something he never intended? He doesn't correct them. "The story is the painting," he said. "As soon as the artist says what it's about, everybody has to abide by the rules."He refuses to impose meaning. Once he's done, he becomes an observer. The work is no longer his—it's an object from the past. He's already onto the next thing.That's what freedom looks like after a lifetime of rebellion.Stay tuned. Subscribe. And remember—we are all made of stories.-- Marco_______________________________________________________________________________________Audio Signals Podcast

Our Global Head of Fixed Income Research Andrew Sheets takes a look at multiple indicators that are pointing on the same direction: strong growth for markets and the economy.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Global Head of Fixed Income Research at Morgan Stanley. Today I'm going to talk about an unusual alignment of signs of optimism for the global cyclical backdrop and why these are important to watch. It's Friday, January 9th at 2pm in London. 2026 is now well underway. Forecasting is difficult and a humbling exercise; and 2025 certainly showed that even in a good year for markets, you can have some serious twists and turns. But overall, Morgan Stanley Research still thinks the year ahead will be a positive one, with equities higher and bond yields modestly lower. It's off to an eventful start, certainly, but we think that core message remains in place. But instead of going back again to our forecasts through the year ahead, I wanted to focus instead on a wide variety of different assets that have long been viewed as leading indicators of the global cyclical environment. I think these are important, and what's notable is that they're all moving in the same direction – all indicating a stronger cyclical backdrop. While today's market certainly has some areas of speculative activity and excessive valuations, the alignment of these things suggests something more substantive may be going on. First, Copper prices, which tend to be volatile but economically sensitive, have been rising sharply up about 40 percent in the last year. A key index of non-traded industrial commodities for everything from Glass to Tin, which is useful because it means it's less likely to be influenced by investor activity, well, it's been up 10 percent over the last year. Korean equities, which tend to be highly cyclical and thus have long been viewed by investors as a proxy for global economic optimism, well, they were the best performing major market last year, up 80 percent. Smaller cap stocks, which again, tend to be more economically sensitive, well, they've been outperforming larger ones. And last but not least, Financial stocks in the U.S. and Europe. Again, a sector that tends to be quite economically sensitive. Well, they've been outperforming the broader market and to a pretty significant degree. These are different assets in different regions that all appear to be saying the same thing – that the outlook for global cyclical activity has been getting better and has now actually been doing so for some time. Now, any individual indicator can be wrong. But when multiple indicators all point in the same direction, that's pretty worthy of attention. And I think this ties in nicely with a key message from my colleague, Mike Wilson from Monday's episode; that the positive case for U.S. equities is very much linked to better fundamental activity. Specifically, our view that earnings growth may be stronger than appreciated. Of course, the data will have a say, and if these indicators turn down, it could suggest a weaker economic and cyclical backdrop. But for now, these various cyclical indicators are giving a positive read. If they continue to do so, it may raise more questions around central bank policy and to what extent further rate cuts are consistent with these signs of a stronger global growth backdrop. For now, we think they remain supporting evidence of our core view that this market cycle can still burn hotter before it burns out. Thank you as always, for your time. If you find Thoughts on the Market useful, let us know by leaving a review wherever you listen. And also, please tell a friend or colleague about us today.

Hidden Killers Podcast continues its coverage of the Charity Beallis case with former FBI special agent Robin Dreeke, who analyzes what law enforcement's documented actions tell us about this investigation.It's been over a month. Three people dead from gunshot wounds. No arrest. No named suspect. No official cause of death. But the Sebastian County Sheriff's Office has executed twelve search warrants, brought in federal agencies including the Secret Service and Homeland Security, and processed what they call a "voluminous" number of tips. They've also made a statement worth examining: there's no ongoing threat to the public.Robin Dreeke knows what that language often signals. He spent 32 years in federal law enforcement.Then there's the dumpster discovery. Three days after the deaths, someone reportedly found a trash bag containing family photos, children's artwork, and a necklace with the twins' names on it. The location was reportedly tied to an address associated with Randall Beallis. When Charity's son John reportedly raised this with a detective, the response was: "How did you find out?"What does that exchange suggest? What does the federal involvement indicate? What might the autopsy delay mean?Robin Dreeke breaks down investigative behavior — because sometimes what investigators do tells you more than what they say.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Venezuela's new leader Delcy Rodríguez abruptly softens her tone following the capture of Nicolás Maduro, signaling possible cooperation with Washington—but her past record and the power structures still in place raise doubts about whether a real political transition is underway. Alarm bells ring across the Baltics after a sixth undersea cable outage in less than a week, as authorities investigate suspected sabotage and Western allies warn the pattern may point to coordinated Russian interference. Russia strikes an American-owned oil facility in Ukraine, triggering a massive oil spill in the city of Dnipro and underscoring the expanding scope of Moscow's targeting.
