Bitcoin remains around $77,000 to $78,000 as rising global bond yields become the biggest macro story for crypto. U.S. Treasury yields are approaching 4.8%, energy prices remain elevated, and markets are increasingly pricing in another Fed rate hike as Kevin Warsh maintains his focus on inflation. ETF buyers did return Monday with approximately $216.7 million in inflows, but Matt argues Bitcoin still needs to defend the $75K to $77K range and finally establish $80K as support before declaring the bear market finished. Meanwhile, Strategy bought another roughly $370 million of Bitcoin, Strive added another $143 million, and ARK Invest increased its exposure to Jack Dorsey's Block. The episode also covers a $75 million Cronos DeFi exploit, George Santos reportedly being banned from Kalshi for trading a market involving himself, Robinhood Chain approaching $1 billion in daily DEX volume, the explosive Artificial Inu trade, and OpenSea bringing Solana NFTs back to its multichain marketplace.

American households are feeling the squeeze as inflation continues to push up the cost of everyday life. New personal consumption expenditures data shows income is finally growing faster than spending, but consumers are still spending more than their inflation-adjusted incomes and drawing down savings to keep up. In this episode of Everyday Economics, Chris Krug and PhD economist Orphée break down what the latest economic data means for American families — from healthcare and groceries to housing, interest rates and big-ticket purchases. They also examine how government spending, energy costs, tariffs and higher interest rates are affecting consumers, why housing demand is weakening, and what could happen to the economy heading into the fall and next year. In this episode: • Inflation and the rising cost of living • Americans drawing down savings • Household income vs. spending • Housing demand and mortgage-sensitive spending • Government spending and interest rates • Energy and transportation costs • Tariffs and their potential economic impact • AI investment and economic growth • What consumers can do in a slowing economy Subscribe to The Center Square for more reporting and analysis on the economy, government spending and the issues affecting American taxpayers. #Inflation #Economy #Economics #CostOfLiving #Housing #GovernmentSpending #EverydayEconomics Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Iran is facing an increasingly severe economic and military squeeze as sanctions, financial isolation, trade restrictions, and attacks on its military infrastructure cut the country off from the global economy. The strategy resembles an economic “Anaconda Plan,” gradually depriving Iran of oil revenue, foreign currency, industrial parts, weapons, fuel, and access to international markets while negotiations and military action continue. Iran is betting that it can withstand the pressure long enough for the approaching U.S. midterm elections to constrain the Trump administration, but the country is losing hundreds of millions of dollars in economic output and revenue each day while its military capabilities continue to deteriorate. The Strait of Hormuz may also become less valuable as Gulf states expand pipelines and alternative export routes through the Gulf of Oman, Red Sea, and potentially the Mediterranean. As Iran's economy weakens, its military shrinks, and alternative oil routes reduce its leverage over global shipping, time may increasingly favor the United States rather than Tehran.

Margin pressure driven by AI adoption and automation is fundamentally altering the economic model for IT service delivery and software. Trend Micro's disclosure that operating margins fell from 19% to 15% while cloud and AI token costs nearly doubled, despite strong AI security product sales, highlights how AI-related expenses grow in step with usage. This shift breaks from the historical software margin structure, where scaling incurred negligible incremental costs, and signals a new landscape in which AI service operation continuously consumes resources. A significant development underscoring this trend is the $2 billion capital raise by Thrive Holdings at a $12 billion valuation, backed by SoftBank and OpenAI. Thrive's business model centers on acquiring professional service firms—across IT and accounting—then reorganizing their operations around AI to reduce labor costs while maintaining service levels. According to Dave Sobel, this is not speculative, but reflects direct, substantial financial bets on the ability to remove a portion of service labor without customer disruption, with over 70 acquired service companies already undergoing this transition. Additional evidence comes from channel segment data and shifts in partner economics. The Techaisle Global Channel Partner Survey found service providers under $10 million in revenue project 8.4% growth, while those above $500 million expect 16.8%. AI-related cloud spending continues to climb, with Gartner projecting $42 billion primarily moving from training to ongoing inference operations. The resulting cost structure affects everyone, from increased hardware component prices—such as memory for GPUs—and service desk automation tool adoption, to the fact that most organizations now monitor AI spend as a named line item but struggle to forecast it reliably. Only 11% of organizations can predict their AI bills, down from 15% the prior year. For MSPs and IT leaders, these developments indicate rising operational complexity and increasing pricing competition. Automation drives down service delivery costs, but savings will quickly pass to clients as competitors implement similar solutions. Providers must quantify and communicate their impact on client outcomes, translating delivered value into client financial terms rather than relying solely on traditional metrics like licenses or labor hours. Failing to do so exposes providers to rapid commoditization and margin erosion, as clients grow more able to audit, benchmark, and bid out both cost savings and revenue enablement. 00:00 Two Billion Against Your Labor  04:10 Software Got a Cost of Goods 06:56 Get On Their Income Statement 10:29 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  ScalePad  Proofpoint

Can technology be leveraged for the human good? Or will AI technology and its explosive expansion bring about the opposite—a culture that reduces our magnificent humanity to means for technocratic ends? "We can either create the Tower of Babel or we can rebuild the walls of the New Jerusalem." Brian Patrick Green has spent his career asking these difficult questions and seeking to apply ethical theory to real world technological developments. He is director of technology ethics at Santa Clara University's Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, and he is co-author of "Encountering Artificial Intelligence" as well as the newly released "Reclaiming Human Agency in the Age of Artificial Intelligence." In this episode, Green explains the technocratic paradigm—the worldview that reduces people and the created world to raw material, data, and units of production, and sets against it what Pope Francis called a culture of encounter. He and Mark Labberton discuss the argument and impact of Pope Leo XIV's May 2026 encyclical on artificial intelligence, "Magnifica Humanitas", an uplifting moral appeal to troubled people in troubled times. They discuss the Eucharist and the ongoing incarnation as the anchor of Catholic social teaching; how technocratic thinking distorts immigration and war from the Marshall Islands to autonomous drones in Ukraine; just war theory in an age of ever more powerful weapons; the encyclical's principles from human dignity to solidarity; and where AI genuinely serves the vulnerable in medicine, in surfacing hidden bias, and in caring for the Earth. Episode Highlights "It's one thing to have new technology. It's an even bigger question of how we actually use it and how it actually affects people." "If we look at every other human being and we say, "This is an image of God in front of me. This is a person who is loved by God just as much as I am," that really transforms our way of viewing each other. "We can either create the Tower of Babel or we can rebuild the walls of the New Jerusalem. "If one grain of sand says to the other grain of sand, 'I'm better than you are,' that's a weird thing for sand to be saying to each other." "It's an encyclical about AI ostensibly, but really it's an encyclical about humanity … and what our role is here in the universe." About Brian Patrick Green Brian Patrick Green directs technology ethics at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University, where he teaches engineers to weigh the human stakes of their work. A former genetics major, he turned toward technology's social impact after a year with the Jesuit Volunteers International in the Marshall Islands, a landscape marked by nuclear testing. He earned his doctorate at the Graduate Theological Union and has focused on AI since 2016. He co-authored "Encountering Artificial Intelligence: Ethical and Anthropological Investigations" and the new "Reclaiming Human Agency in the Age of Artificial Intelligence," and advises Catholic and multi-faith AI efforts, including at the Vatican.

Against such reductions, the Pope urges that we cultivate a "culture of encounter"—a culture that seeks the contact of mind with mind and heart with heart, in a relational sharing of life that embraces the most vulnerable."

  Socrates, that wise philosopher of the 5th century BC, said: "The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less." And the consensus across the centuries has always been clear: happiness isn't a destination you reach by wanting or accumulating more, but a state of mind achieved by reducing what you want. This week, I'm exploring the common problem of wanting to do more and more, yet never finding the time to do what you want.  Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   Learn more about the Perfect Week Calendar Learn more about the Quiet Productivity Method here Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived   The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script |424 Hello, and welcome to episode 424 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  One of the most common questions I get asked is: How do I find the time to do everything I want to do?  And as David Allen said in his book Getting Things Done, you can do anything you want, but not everything.  In other words, you can do all the things you want to do, just not all at once.  This is a problem all humans have faced since the dawn of time: we are limited by the number of hours we have each day.  And before we acknowledged time and dates, we were still limited by daylight hours and the need to sleep.  In many ways, truly understanding that we will always be limited by time is the first step to discovering peace and happiness.  I remember many years ago having an argument with a colleague about why the iPhone's constraints were better than Android's lack of constraints. This was back in the day when you really didn't have many options for what you could add to an iPhone's home screen. The date and time, design, and colours were fixed, and the apps you downloaded were presented as Apple allowed them to be.  Android phones, on the other hand, let you download widgets, move your app icons wherever you wanted, and install thousands of different themes.  What was interesting is that my colleague was always fiddling with his phone. Never being happy with the way his home screen looked.  I had no choice. Which meant I wasn't fiddling with my phone all the time, trying to find the perfect setup and design. I was therefore happy with what I had.  Funnily enough, now that Apple does give us more choice as to how our phone home screens look, I do waste a lot of time trying to find the right colour combinations and layouts. (And I'm still not happy with it!) So with that said, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question: This week's question comes from Scott. Scott asks: Hi Carl, I have a lot of things I want to do, such as learning to play the guitar, reading more books, and taking my kids out on the weekend. Yet I never have time to do any of these, and when I do, I'm so exhausted that all I want to do is sit and watch TV. It's so frustrating. Do you have any ideas on how to fit all these things into my week? Hi Scott, thank you for your question.  I'm not sure whether you have completed the “Perfect Week” calendar exercise yet, but I would recommend it.  This is an exercise where you take a blank weekly calendar and map out all the things you want to do each week by when you will do them.  Start with your personal life, then add your professional life. I will put a link in the show notes to a video I did on this.  This exercise tells you whether you are being overambitious. You will quickly see if what you want to do is realistic, impossible, or somewhere in between.  What most people find when they do this exercise is that they are being wildly unrealistic.  I'm currently reading Sir Alan Lascelles' diaries from 1940 to 1945. Sir Alan was the Private Secretary to King George VI at that time, and it's interesting to see how he spent his days. Sir Alan loved going to the theatre, gardening and reading books. Those were his main hobbies. However, being a senior member of the Royal Household, he was also in demand from the King and the government of the day.  Yet, what I learned is that even during the war, because his “interests” were small, he was able to maintain all of them.  Take gardening, for example; Sir Alan's home was outside London. So during the week when he was required to stay at Buckingham Palace, he could not attend to his garden. But at weekends, when he was not travelling with the King, he would spend his days pottering about in his garden.  During the week, when he was in London, he would combine lunches and dinners with meetings with government officials, and maintain his social life by going to the theatre with friends and family.  Now, in those days, people engaged in what we would call “knowledge work” today had much more flexible hours.  Most mornings were spent doing their most important work. The work that required focus.  One thing Sir Alan did each day was take a walk with the King for an hour, where they would discuss the affairs of state. In many ways, this was their daily meeting, though neither of them really considered it one.  This walk invariably took place just before lunch.  Lunch, again, was usually business, but occasionally it would be with his wife or son, or a friend.  Afternoons were often meetings, and they ran into dinners. From the diaries, it seemed that most evenings were spent meeting with a colleague or an official to discuss business.  If he didn't have a business meeting in the evening, he would go to the theatre with his wife or a friend.  What's interesting about this way of living is that there were no real-time barriers between work and personal life. Some of those evening meetings went on into the early hours of the morning; other times, if there were no meetings in the afternoon or evening, people would go shopping or take afternoon tea with a family member or friend.  There were instances where an important communique needed to be written, and Sir Alan would be up late at night writing it.  I would say that Sir Alan was working around 50 hours a week, but they were not evenly distributed. Some days he'd work 18 hours, the next maybe only 4.  Our obsession with the “work-life balance” has distorted our lives. Now we are trying to cram so much into our 8-hour work day that we leave ourselves exhausted at the end of it.  There's no energy left to do the things we want to do. All we are fit for is crashing on the sofa and watching TV or scrolling our social media feeds.  What people like Sir Alan did was to spread their work more evenly throughout the day. They would take a walk for an hour mid-morning, have long lunches with friends, have business meetings in the evening over dinner, and often work on an important piece of work late into the night.  Now, it's true that in the 1940s TV was not a thing. All people had for entertainment were the radio and record players. So reading books, going to the theatre with friends, and gardening were likely easy to do. Today, we do not have any more time than they had in the 1940s. We still have the same 24 hours a day.  What has changed is we have far more options than they had.  And that's where the problem is. It's not time. It's the options we have.  The activities you mention, Scott, should be entirely possible. Spending an hour or so each evening playing the guitar should not be a challenge; neither should reading a book for 30 minutes before bed.  If you were to get home around 7:00 pm, have dinner with your family, and then practice the guitar around 8:30, would that be impossible?  If not, what would you do instead after dinner?  Likewise, if you want to take your kids out at the weekend, what's stopping you? What are you doing instead?  One of the best things I've ever done was to strip out the artificial lines between doing my work and my personal life.  Now, I do my most important work in the mornings and, wherever I can, avoid meetings at that time. I keep the afternoons relatively free for chores and family outings and do some work between 8 and 10 pm. That could be meetings, project work, or dealing with my communications and admin. I've recently started reading books for 30 minutes or so after lunch. I find it refreshes me, and I'm ready for whatever's in store for me in the afternoons. I used to read the news or look at social media at that time, which often drained me mentally. Reading a book does the opposite.  I've noticed that with my team too.  We don't have any regulated work times in the company. People can work whenever they feel like it. My Marketing Manager likes to do her work early in the morning; my video editor prefers the evenings.  We work on timelines. For example, I supply my video editor with that week's videos on a Wednesday afternoon, and she has until Sunday evening to complete the edits.  As the boss, the only thing I care about is receiving the edited videos no later than Sunday evening.  The final issue most people face is wanting to do too much.  Reading Dorothy L. Sayers' Lord Peter Wimsey books, we learn that Lord Peter had two hobbies. Playing the piano and collecting books. When he's had an exhausting day or was stressed about something, he would either pick up a book or play the piano. They were his go-to relaxation methods.  What do we do today? We get ourselves stressed out because we want to learn to play the violin, take up pickleball, go to the movies with our friends or our partner, learn to cook, clean out the wardrobe, redecorate the bedroom, read more books, and write in a journal every day.  Well, you can do any of those things, just not all of them all at the same time.  The problem is when we are faced with too many choices, we end up doing none of them. Instead, we'll end up crashed in an armchair scrolling.  One thing you can do if you have multiple things you want to do is divide them into seasons.  For example, if gardening is something you want to do, you could spend your time gardening on longer, warmer days. On the colder, shorter days, you could switch to indoor activities.  So Scott, first I would suggest doing the “perfect Week” calendar. That will tell you how much time you actually have for all the things you want to do.  Then be a little more flexible with how you divide your time in the day. Squeezing all your work tasks into a single 8-hour slot is exhausting. Try to break up your day with longer breaks. I know not everyone can do that, but it is something worth trying if you can. You'll be a lot less exhausted in the evenings.  Finally, be realistic about what you want to do. Remember you can do anything, but you cannot do everything.  I hope that has helped. Thank you for your question, and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.   

Squeezing in “just one more patient.” It feels responsible. It feels like good service. But it quietly keeps you trapped trading time for money — and it steals the hours you need to fix the real problems in the business. I'll share a story from this week that proves it, then I'll break down the mindset behind it and give you a simple way to protect CEO time so your podiatry clinic can actually grow.

The World Cup has kicked off, with three red cards and a win for co-hosts Mexico while the USA face Paraguay later, but President Donald Trump is set not to attend America's opening game. Before a ball was even kicked, this tournament wasn't short of controversies, from strict border controls and eye-watering ticket prices to the prospect of two countries who are at war with each other playing a game of football. So, has the beautiful game's biggest tournament become impossible to separate from global politics? Is this simply the reality of staging a World Cup across borders in an increasingly divided world - or are the doubters right that this World Cup could be spoiled by the drama off the pitch?On this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy was joined by our sports reporter Jordan Jarrett-Bryan, superfan Billy The Bee who is in Mexico right now and will head to America to follow England's games and journalist Marcela Mora y Araujo.

Fire up the grill and grab a fresh pistachio muffin, because the What's on Your Mind show is broadcasting live from the Petro Serve USA station in beautiful Harwood, North Dakota. Host Scott kicks off a packed Friday Talk Radio Town Hall with U.S. Senator Kevin Kramer, diving headfirst into the high-stakes chess match with Iran, the real motives keeping the Strait of Hormuz tight, and whether it's time to "finish the job". Scott also gets remarkably candid about his recent travels to Norway, sparking an evolutionary look at America's food supply and the growing "Make America Healthy Again" movement. Later in the hour, the studio turns into an international stage. We sit down with four legal Persian-Iranian student and employment visa holders who share harrowing, first-hand accounts of the murderous regime back home, detailing the absolute gravity of public executions, internet blackouts, and the unintended fallout of the administration's recent sweeping visa pause. Scott gives a passionate call to action, offering listeners the exact blueprint to bypass the gatekeepers and let their voices be heard in Congress. Plus, we recap world-class insights from the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference with American Petroleum Institute CEO Mike Sommers, who lays out why AI, natural gas, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum are the key trifecta to winning the global tech race against China. Finally, we wrap up with an inspiring "Feel Good Friday" segment featuring Tracy Allen, founder of Amistad Worldwide, to explore how a grassroots North Dakota charity is rescuing castaway orphans and abandoned widows in India and Nepal through the power of clean water and local sewing centers. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:25] Bullying the Globe for 50 Years: Senator Kevin Kramer breaks down the fundamental challenges of negotiating with a regime whose soldiers value dying more than living, exploring Trump's refusal to sign a weak, Obama-style nuclear clock-runner. [00:03:55] A Hooligan's Message to the Senate: Live at the pump, a decorated Air National Guard veteran from the "Hooligans" commands the mic, urging Senator Kramer to let the military finish the job for the North Dakota service members who paid in blood. [00:05:00] Squeezing the Pillows of Harwood: Scott breaks multi-tasking protocol to rave about the locally-sourced John & Wayne burgers and Petro Serve's famous daily-baked buns that are literally "as soft as a pillow".

Live from the exhibit floor of the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference in beautiful Bismarck, North Dakota, this episode kicks off a massive three-day broadcast celebrating 75 years of the historic Bakken play. Host Scott Hennen balances his jet lag from a recent trip to Norway with full-throttle interviews featuring the absolute heaviest hitters in global energy, aerospace technology, and state legislation.   First, Bernie Bourgeois from Chevron details the multi-billion-dollar acquisition of Hess and breaks down how cutting-edge "chemical EOR" literally washes subterranean rock to maximize American energy prosperity. Then, legendary local public servant Lynn Helms uses a pizza analogy to explain why the U.S. is barely on "first base" when it comes to oil recovery. State Representative Mike Nathy takes us inside the legislative trenches to expose the real economic data surrounding data centers and look ahead to a critical upcoming Republican primary. Finally, we talk to UND aviation graduate Grayson Miller about real-world life-and-death drone warfare, tracking how elite Ukrainian "Spider Web" drone swarms managed to set the Russian military back by multiple decades.   Standout Moments & Timestamps [43:00] Squeezing the Shale: Bernie Bourgeois from Chevron explains the global integrated brand's massive production footprint, moving four million barrels of oil a day around the world.   [43:42] Washing the Subterranean Stone: Bourgeois delivers a fascinating technical breakdown of Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), detailing how specialized solvents act just like hand soap to alter rock characteristics and make oil more "slippery".   [44:11] Unconventional Permeability: A masterclass in geology as Bernie describes tight rock unconventional formations, explaining that the microscopic pore spaces in shale are less permeable than a kitchen granite countertop.   [44:31] The Emerging Argentine Frontier: Chevron's shale general manager maps out the world's top shale assets, crowning West Texas's Permian Basin a behemoth while identifying Argentina as the next massive global resource destination.   [45:34] Seven Slices of Pizza: Former Director of Mineral Resources Lynn Helms stuns the hosts by revealing that current technology has only extracted a meager 15% of the oil trapped in the Bakken and Three Forks formations—declaring that nobody would buy a pizza, eat one slice, and throw the rest away.   [45:54] Geological Records vs. Extinction Climate: Helms cuts through standard political rhetoric to discuss real geological history, noting that the Earth's climate has constantly shifted across millennia and tracking how special interest groups managed to weaponize the education…

It's never funny when a worker is injured on the job, but some cases do raise eyebrows. In their annual look into some “unusual” Workers' Comp cases, Jud and Alan uncover some incidents that challenged the system, some by just being so weird. Where did my ladder go? A worker on a rooftop was stuck when others removed the ladder and left the job. Desperate to get down, he jumped, suffering back and foot injuries. Is the worker to be blamed for intentionally jumping, or was he left with no choice?  The falling clipboard case. From the Supreme Court of Idaho, a helicopter pilot died in a crash when a passenger dropped a clipboard that struck the tail rotor and damaged it. Who's liable? What's an accident, and where does civil liability intersect with Workers' Comp? A tryst in France, during a work trip, and the ensuing heart attack? Squeezing an oversized customer into a tiny mermaid-style wedding dress? Messing around with a flammable can of tire glue (at work)? Just as workers do unusual things, the courts also rule in unexpected ways. We can all learn from cases like these. If you have thoughts on Workers' Comp law or an idea for a topic or guest you'd like to hear, contact us at JPierce@ppnlaw.com or APierce@ppnlaw.com.  Mentioned in This Episode: Thomas A.

Rabobank's Head of Research for South America, Andy Duff, discusses the impact of rising diesel prices on sugar, grain, and soybean production. As Brazil relies heavily on long‑distance truck transport to move agricultural products inland, logistics costs can negatively impact Brazilian farm margins. Sugar prices have been on a roller-coaster ride in recent weeks, and Andy explains why the high probability of an El Niño event is a key price driver to watch.   Disclaimer: Please refer to our global RaboResearch disclaimer at https://www.rabobank.com/knowledge/disclaimer/011417027/disclaimer for information about the scope and limitations of the material published on the podcast.

The U.S. blockade of Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz is aimed at squeezing Iran's economy by millions in daily oil imports and exports. As the blockade continues, the State Department hosted the first round of negotiations between Israel and Lebanon as senior Hezbollah officials announced they will not abide by any agreements made in the negotiations. Meanwhile, Pakistan has proposed hosting a second round of U.S.-Iran talks in Islamabad this week, just ahead of the current ceasefire expiring. FOX's John Saucier speaks with Behnam Ben Taleblu, Senior Fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies and Senior Director of FDD's Iran program, who says the actions taken in the Strait have been a possible bargaining tool against Tehran for a while, but only now has been a real option.
