The more POTUS Trump backtracks from his 'tariff shock' the more it looks like an extended strategy of market manipulation for his investor friends who were able to 'buy the dips'.
I'd be interested how many of Ttrump's chums have made quick gains by by either shorting ahead of his tariff announcement(s), or buying in the turmoil after, and now selling as prices recover?
The number will be more than zero & might be quite a high proportion of his social circle, would be my guess.
Trump is either stupid, or very clever, cause total chaos or say there is a major problem of everyone elses making, then fix the issue, so he or the US is then percieved as the major benefactor.
What trump has not done is take in to account that China would fight back and not be bulled, teh UK capitulate as we don't make very much any more and need the exports to protect jobs etc.
US-Präsident Trump gibt Tiefsee zum Mineralabbau frei
Die US-Regierung setzt auf den Abbau seltener Rohstoffe in der Tiefsee, Firmen hoffen auf gute Geschäfte. Meeresbiologen sind entsetzt - auch weil gar nicht klar ist, ob die Industrie die Rohstoffe in Zukunft wirklich braucht. Von S. Jackisch.

Good morning lovely 🐿️🐿️ So pleased you are feeling more your squirrelly self. Sophie definitely needs extra pampering this morning as she missed out yesterday and you're going to away for the day! Welcome to the bright side of them thar' hills 🥰🥰
Good morning Maj I was to be sleeping at 11pm and body says it will not stop draining for the last few hrs... I must of chilled myself somehow .. hope to find sleep soon ...
I'm on garden duty, protecting a posse of baby blackbirds (aka The Flufflngs) from The Ginger Jaws of Doom, although Matty is almost 11 and beginning to reach the 'I could catch you if I wanted but I can't be bothered' phase. Just occasionally he can still surprise us (and them...)
Glad you're feeling better, hope you have a great day.
I’m still trying to get motivated to start the day. By trying to get motivated, I mean slugging cup after cup of coffee and waiting for APJ to call the charge!
Right, my cup is empty. Off to refill my prescription at the coffee pot.
Have fun venturing into a family gathering! I didn't know you were allowed to skip a day when it comes to brushing Sophie. I can imagine the look she gave you. 🥰🤗
Glad you had a good time! Having nice weather is always a plus.
We be had a fine day and managed to tick a few things off the list. Not as many as we would have liked, but progress is progress, and the weather was nice to boot!
I managed to get a better idea of the work necessary to plumb in the water softener and it looks like it’ll be easier than I’d expected. The works not done, so there’s still time for it to go off the rails! 😂
Hope you’re enjoying your evening and get a good night’s rest for tomorrow’s chores! 😁🤙
Good morning lovely 🐿️🐿️ Glad you had a good day yesterday 😄 I know! Time goes so quick when you're old 🧓 Next thing they'll have moved house and then there'll be a baby! It's been quite a year 🤣🤣
Thanks, and I’ve woken up this morning quite early, but I did get a good night’s rest, albeit shorter than I’d have planned.
I was wondering if you carried your bug to your peopling session. It’s the gift that keeps on giving!
I’m trying not to think about my work schedule today. Still plenty to do. I’m considering taking a week off from my job in order to get a jump on all the work around the house. Maybe the last week of May for planting.
You’re welcome and thanks! We’re both doing well this morning, surprisingly enough.
Though I hadn’t meant to guilt trip you, though I suppose it did come out that way. I’m sure everyone will be fine and most won’t likely even notice.
We’re currently waiting for it to warm up a bit before striking out for a few more chores. It promises to be a nice warm day at 68° F so we’ll be out in the sun!
well an extra 6 hrs gotten does not seem to make any difference when am upright and the nose starts to act like a pump of a well still ..and I wonder why I have gone thru half a box of tissues in 2 days
“More than 40 MPs have signed a letter urging Foreign Secretary David Lammy to address allegations that the UK has continued exporting military equipment to Israel despite the suspension of key arms export licences
- raising concerns that Parliament may have been misled.”
What would a Green Party (of England & Wales) look like if led by Zack Polanski (who's challenging for the leadership as co-leader Carla Denyer) steps down to focus on her Bristol constituency)?
Perhaps reflecting sentiment here, Polanski wants to more explicitly & forceful challenge ReformUK's narrative on climate change as well as to more actively take advantage of political disillusionment with the Labour Party.

Heute ein bisschen in Eile aber dafür garnicht schlecht geworden. Diese Szene hat mich als Kind immer beeindruckt, weil ich mich gefragt habe, warum die Mädchen dem blöden Zwerg überhaupt helfen #maerchenhafterMai #kleinekunstklasse
The image is a pencil sketch depicting a man in a distressed state, emerging from a large log. The man has a muscular build, with his arms and legs gripping the log, and his facial expression shows strain and effort. He is wearing a shirt and appears to be exerting significant force. The log is cylindrical, with visible wood grain, and is rolling on a surface that suggests a forest floor, indicated by the presence of leaves and branches in the background. An axe is visible to the left of the log, suggesting a possible connection to the log's origin. The background is filled with abstract, scribbled lines that resemble foliage, adding to the chaotic atmosphere. The artist's signature, "Frank 25," is located in the bottom right corner of the image.
