In this Week 40 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review the latest movements across global ship recycling. As October begins, markets reflect a sharp slowdown with weaker currencies, falling oil, and softer steel prices across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. Global Market Overview • Global trading indices fell by about sixteen percent, marking the sharpest weekly decline since January. • Oil prices eased to around sixty dollars per barrel, about twenty percent lower than the same time last year. • Currencies remained under pressure, with the Indian rupee near eighty-nine, the Pakistani rupee around two-hundred eighty-three, and the Turkish lira at forty-one point seven to the dollar. • Steel prices stayed mixed. India slipped to about four-hundred and two dollars per ton, Bangladesh held near five-hundred and twenty, and Pakistan stayed firm around six-hundred and twenty. Regional Highlights Bangladesh: Activity remained limited as local yards stayed mostly idle. The market continues to absorb the impact of HKC upgrades, limited supply, and political uncertainty. Steel prices held steady near USD 520 per ton. India: Alang faced another difficult week. The rupee reached a record low of eighty-eight point seven-four, and domestic steel fell to about USD 402 per ton. One sale was reported, the Bow Cedar from Odfjell, at USD 940 per LDT supported by strong stainless-steel content. Pakistan: Prices remain the highest in the region at roughly USD 620 per ton, but large LDT units remain scarce. Inflation increased to 5.4 percent and HKC approval work continues at Gadani. Turkey: The Turkish lira weakened to about TRY 41.7 as inflation crossed thirty-three percent. Local recyclers continue to face tight financing and limited tonnage availability heading into the fourth quarter. Market sentiment stayed weak through the start of October as declining fundamentals, currency pressure, and limited supply weighed on all major recycling destinations.

2025-09-24 | Silicon Wafers 009 | DAILY UPDATES | Wafers daily is a round-up of news over the last 1-2 days, with a particular focus on the resurgence of authoritarian regimes in the 21st century, great power competition, democracy on the defensive, the Russian imperial project, and how Ukraine is leading the fightback for values and freedom. In this short video format, I hope to bring some light to dark times.Today: we're tracking Trump's dramatic change of tone, Russia's strategic gambits, Ukraine's defiant countermoves, China's balancing act, and the cracks forming in Russia's war economy. We examine how these moves fit longer arcs — authoritarian slide, the undoing of norms, imperial ambition, and great power competition.Trump Shifts Tone — Says Ukraine Can Win Back All Territory President Trump publicly stated that he now believes Ukraine can reclaim all territory lost to Russia, with NATO and EU support. (AP News) This marks a departure from prior suggestions of negotiated land compromises – the morally vacuous and strategically unworkable ‘land swap' proposal.----------Autumn Harvest: Silicon Curtain (Goal €22,000)This is super important.

What does MAGA propaganda represent in American politics? And what does Superman represent? To unpack these political symbols, I speak with Nicholas Cull, Professor of Communication at the University of Southern California, a pioneer scholar and educator in the field of public diplomacy and a historian of the role of mass communication in foreign policy. Does he believe that President Donald Trump acts like a wannabe dictator and has weakened America's position on the global stage? Listen to our conversation.

Congress is moving to weaken Washington, D.C.'s Home Rule, with the House Oversight Committee considering 14 bills that could alter the city's governance. Proposals include giving the president authority to pick the District's attorney general, reinstating cash bail, and diverting public school funding to vouchers. The push comes as President Donald Trump's 30-day crime emergency order nears expiration, sparking concern from Mayor Muriel Bowser and D.C. residents over self-governance.

Markets sold off after testing all time highs. The S&P has now set a "double top," and markets are now consolidating in a very narrow channel. Meanwhile, markets are doing well with a bullish trend still in place. However, there also remains a negative divergence with money flows going into the market are weakening, as well as a negative divergence in momentum and relative strength. Underneath the surface, there is some deterioration in the markets. Such are not immediate threats, but are a prelude to an eventual market correction. And with level of deviation, a price correction of between 3% and 5% at some point is not out of the question. Now is a good time to take some profits, save some cash, and perhaps buy cheap insurance in the form of Puts while volatility is at a low ebb.

In this episode: The largest private landowner in Florida is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Better known as the Mormon Church, it owns more than 600,000 acres around the state. About half of its land holdings are cattle ranchlands east of Orlando — where the the church has long-term plans to build the equivalent of a new city of 500,000 people. But voters in Orlando recently approved new rules meant to slow suburban sprawl on rural land. So the Mormon Church turned to Florida's Republican-controlled Legislature to step in. And the church had help.Show notesThe bills discussed in this show:Senate Bill 1118 — Land Use and Development RegulationsSenate Bill 180 — EmergenciesTime is a flat circle: Lobbyists for developers pushed Florida lawmakers to block rules meant to save rural lands from sprawlThe top 10 landowners in Florida: Land LordsReach more about the Mormon Church's long-term development plans in central Florida (stories from the August 2017 issue of Florida Trend magazine):Ranchland to rooftops in central FloridaDeseret Ranch — the LandRural Florida's players and their projectsTavistock's Role in Developing Rural FloridaDuda's agribusiness development reachThis the second episode to come out of public records we obtained after the end of the Florida Legislature's 2025 session.

In this compelling episode, Michael Jaco sits down with author and truth-teller Sheila Holm to connect the dots between current events and hidden historical forces. Sheila breaks down the shocking demolition of the Federal Reserve building in Washington, D.C., the strategic role of U.S. Marshals, and the military's pivotal maneuvers on June 14th. Drawing from her new book, Sheila exposes the 45-point plan designed to weaken America—and reveals practical strategies to counter these tactics. The discussion also uncovers the influence of secretive groups like the Knights of Pythias and the Masons, the enduring reach of the Vatican and British Crown, and the essential role of the militia in safeguarding freedom.

Brian Soden discusses his recent study on injecting absorptive aerosols, such as black carbon, into the upper stratosphere to weaken the CO₂ greenhouse effect. The conversation addresses the radiative physics underpinning this concept, its potential cooling efficiency relative to conventional scattering aerosols, and associated environmental risks. While model results indicate the method could theoretically be effective, Soden remains sceptical about its practical viability.Paper: He, H., Soden, B. J., Vecchi, G. A., & Yang, W. (2025).

The White House imposed 50% tariffs on Brazil and declared it a threat to US "national security". Donald Trump is blatantly meddling in internal Brazilian affairs, trying to undermine left-wing President Lula da Silva and help far-right former leader Jair Bolsonaro. The USA's attacks also aim to divide BRICS and discourage more countries from joining. Political economist Ben Norton explains how the US empire is attacking the Global South's multipolar project.

HR3 Biden's Legacy Continues to Weaken US, Leaving America Vulnerable to Iran's Oil Threat. 6-23-25 by John Rush
In 2025, few societal phenomena pose a greater or more immediate threat to the mental and physical wellbeing of Americans than gun violence. Gun violence is now, quite shamefully, the leading cause of death for children and youth in our country. And when this sobering fact is combined with the ongoing rise in political violence […]
Edition No160 | 16-06-2025 - Is the regime in Iran on the brink of collapse, as Israel continues to target strategic military and regime objects in Iran? Regime change is more openly being talked about as the key objective of the Israeli strikes, but have they bitten off more than they can chew? Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister has urged ordinary Iranians to seize the moment and overthrow Khamenei, his clerics and the theocratic elite that has ruled Iran since the 1979 revolution. A top aid to Iran's ruler Ali Khamenei is reported to be attempting to flee the country. Ali Asghar Hejazi is Deputy Chief-of-Staff to Iran's Supreme Leader and one of the most influential players in Iran's political establishment. Perhaps trying to force the pace of events, Israel continues its aerial attacks on the Islamic Republic. In an indication of who may suffer most if the regime falls, the regime enforcer is apparently in negotiations with Kremlin officials over securing asylum in Russia.Israel sees Iran's nuclear capabilities as an existential threat to its existence – this much is clear from the attacks that began last Friday. But why now, and why such a comprehensive series of attacks, not merely symbolic, but at scale and designed to severely degrade Tehran's ability to wage war in all its forms. One reason is clearly the inability of the Western powers to persuade Iran to stop its development of a nuclear weapons capability, favouring negotiations that have done nothing to halt this progress, and the other is the fear that an increasingly malignant Russia will help Iran to further accelerate its development of a nuclear capability, and then may help scale up production.----------Links: https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/jun/16/israel-iran-conflict-haifa-power-plant-tel-aviv-missile-strike-live-updates-middle-east?page=with%3Ablock-684fa1028f08c7927fc46678&filterKeyEvents=false#liveblog-navigationhttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c79e233j2grohttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g3nz1p9wdohttps://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2068993/iran-ali-asghar-hejazi-asylum-russiahttps://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2069043/trump-israel-iran-war-leader ----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown: Song 18 — Claire from Ann ArborHey, it's jD. And welcome to the wide open middle of the countdown — that beautiful, feral terrain where deep cuts go to become legends and personal faves start to collide with consensus picks.This week on The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown, I'm joined by one of our most thoughtful and eloquent membersHIPers: Claire from Ann Arbor. We talk about discovering The Hip as a millennial from the U.S., falling hard thanks to Hockey Night in Canada, and how a steady diet of CBC and her dad's hockey tapes led her straight to 50 Mission Cap. (That's right — before she even knew the song, she knew the legend of Bill Barilko. That's parenting done right.)But what really makes this one hit different? Claire's lived experience as a disabled fan navigating concerts, fandom, and feeling safe in the crowd. Her reflections on inclusivity, identity, and finding community through The Hip are honest, funny, moving, and — in true TTHTop40 fashion — a little nerdy in the best possible way.We're not just counting down songs here. We're collecting stories. Claire's is one you'll be glad you heard.

In this episode of Litigation Nation, co-hosts Danessa Watkins and Jack Sanker dive into two significant legal topics that are currently shaping the landscape of litigation in the United States. The tax and spending bill (a.k.a. 'The Big Beautiful Bill') has raised eyebrows due to its implications for federal court contempt powers. The bill, which passed the House by a narrow margin, includes a provision that could severely limit federal courts' ability to enforce temporary restraining orders (TROs) & injunctions, in contrast to most new legislation it is written to be retroactive affecting previous rulings issued by federal courts. Specifically, the provision states that no court may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or TRO if no security was provided when the order was issued. This change could have far-reaching consequences, particularly in immigration cases and other areas of law where TROs are commonly sought. Jack explains the mechanics of Federal Rule 65C, which requires parties seeking injunctions to provide a surety bond to cover potential damages if the injunction is later found to be wrongful. The discussion highlights the potential chaos that could ensue if existing injunctions without bonds become unenforceable, particularly in cases involving civil rights and government actions.We then shift focus to the use of pseudonyms in litigation, and the delicate balance between the public's right to access judicial proceedings and the need for individuals to protect their identities in sensitive cases. Recent court decisions have indicated that the avoidance of reputational harm is not a compelling enough reason to allow litigants to proceed anonymously. A notable case from the Seventh Circuit involving a lawsuit against the University of Illinois, Initially allowed to proceed under a pseudonym, the university later objected. This case underscores the challenges faced by individuals who may have legitimate reasons for wanting to protect their anonymity, particularly in cases involving sensitive allegations.We encourage our listeners to stay informed about how these issues may affect their rights and responsibilities in litigation.Join us as we discuss the complexities of critical topics and we encourage our listeners to stay informed about how these issues may affect their rights and responsibilities in litigation..

Story at-a-glance Daily soda drinkers have a 4.69 times higher fracture risk compared to non-drinkers; even one to two sodas weekly increase the risk Soft drinks disrupt calcium-phosphorus balance through phosphoric acid, forcing calcium release from bones even when dietary calcium intake is adequate Diet sodas cause more bone damage than regular sodas, significantly lowering calcium and vitamin D levels and increasing bone breakdown markers The damage to bones happens gradually and silently until fractures occur, making prevention through dietary changes essential Reversing bone damage requires a comprehensive approach: eliminating all sodas, including diet versions, prioritizing mineral-rich whole foods, getting sunlight exposure for vitamin D and incorporating strength training exercises

Home prices could weaken, bringing big bargains to patient buyers who've been sitting on the sidelines. The housing market is seeing some turbulence, even if it remains more stable than other parts of the economy. Inventory is rising, and sellers are in a tough position, with many buyers still waiting out the market. Stock sell-offs and tariffs are keeping fear high, and the housing market could freeze because of it. Where is the housing market headed? We're catching you up on all the data and big headlines in this April 2025 housing market update. First up: inventory. A few years ago, there was none—now, we may have too much. More homes are hitting the market, which could spell trouble for sellers. With inflation fears and stock market uncertainty dragging down demand, prices may soften. Don't worry, this isn't another 2008, even though a certain “delinquency chart” would have you thinking so. We're also hitting on the condo market and why more than half of condo sellers should prepare to accept an under-asking price…and this could be just the start. In This Episode We Cover: April 2025 housing market update: home prices, inventory, mortgage rates, and more Why inventory is rising so quickly now and what it means for buyers (good news?) Home price predictions and whether or not we'll see prices fall even more in inventory-heavy markets The condo market's notable sign of weakness and why price drops are becoming more common With more economic pain, will foreclosures increase?

We live in an age where our attention has become a most valuable commodity. You know this. We all hear about this. Yet, do you fight for your focus?. Each time you allow your phone to interrupt you, you weaken your focus. Each moment you spend scrolling through someone else's life is a moment stolen from building your own. The cost of distraction is not just time—it's your dreams, your genius, your legacy. The world doesn't need more people chasing likes or watching others live. It needs you—fully alive, fully engaged, doing work that matters. Napoleon Bonaparte said, “The battlefield is the mind.” Win the war against distraction, and you sort of win everything. So, take back control. Schedule your work and protect it like your life depends on it—because it does. Turn off the noise. Work in blocks of uninterrupted time. Step into the rare-air of those who create, while others consume. If you'd like to master a world-class morning routine so you have consistently incredible days, claim a membership into The 5AM Club Method online course here. You're going to absolutely love it!

Our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur explains why credit markets have held firm amid macro volatility, and the scenarios which could hurt its strong foundation.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist. Today, I will talk about why credit markets have been resilient even as other markets have been volatile – and market implications going forward. It's Tuesday, March 18th, at 11 am in New York. Market sentiment has shifted quickly from post-election euphoria and animal spirits to increasingly growing concern about downside risks to the U.S. economy, driven by ongoing policy uncertainty and a spate of uninspiring soft data. However, signaling from different markets has not been uniform. For example, after reaching an all-time high just a few weeks ago, the S&P 500 index has given up all of its gains since the election and then some. Treasury yields have also yo-yoed, from a 40-basis points selloff to a 60+ basis points rally. Yet in the middle of this volatility in equities and rates, credit markets have barely budged. In other words, credit has been a low beta asset class so far. This resilience which resonates with our long-standing constructive view on credit has strong underpinnings. We had expected that many of the supporting factors from 2024 would continue – such as solid credit fundamentals, strong investor demand driven by elevated overall yields rather than the level of spreads. While we expected the economic growth in 2025 to slow somewhat, to about 2 per cent, we thought that would still be a robust level for credit investors. These expectations have largely played out until recently. While we maintain our overall positive stance on credit, some of the factors contributing to its resilience are changing, calling the persistence of credit's low beta into question. While we did anticipate that sequencing and severity of policy would be key drivers of the economy and markets in 2025, growth constraining policies, especially tariffs, have come in faster and broader than what we had penciled in. Incorporating these policy signals, our U.S. economists have marked down real GDP growth to 1.5 per cent in 2025 and 1.2 per cent in 2026. From a credit perspective, we would highlight that our economists are not calling for a recession. Their growth expectations still leave us in territory we would deem credit friendly, although edging towards the bottom of our comfort zone. On the positive side of the ledger, cooling growth may also temper animal spirits and continue to constrain corporate debt supply, keeping market technicals supportive. Also, while treasury yields have rallied, overall yields are still at levels that sustain demand from yield-motivated buyers. That said, if growth concerns intensify from these levels, with weakness in soft data spreading notably to hard data, the probability of markets assigning above-average recession probabilities will increase. This could challenge credit's low beta, that has prevailed so far, and the credit beta could increase on further drawdowns in risk assets. Thanks for listening.
