Carry trades refer to operations wherein an investor borrows in a currency with low interest rates, such as the Japanese yen, and reinvests the proceeds in higher-yielding assets elsewhere. The trading strategy has been hugely popular in recent years.

"The end goal is still to be able to bring supplies to our troops...to be able to practice freedom of navigation and overflight, without necessarily escalating the situation you're in," Brawner said.

In the same briefing, Brawner said the Philippines' armed forces will also coordinate with a senator who claimed to have knowledge of a Chinese plan to target her country with hypersonic missiles.

Senator Imee Marcos, the president's sister and head of the senate foreign relations committee, created a stir earlier this week with her video, posted on Tik Tok. She has provided no evidence for the claim.

The Chinese foreign ministry said it does not know where the claims came from, but maintained Beijing adheres to a defensive national defence policy and does not pose a threat to any country.

"Of course, we will never sit idly by and watch our legitimate rights and interests and regional peace and stability being violated and threatened," Mao said.

Beijing had previously condemned the deployment of a U.S. intermediate range missile system on Philippine soil during joint military exercises in April and May.

An army spokesperson confirmed the Typhon missile launcher remains deployed in the Philippines' northern islands, and there was no specific date yet as to when it would be "shipped out".

Manila has sought wider international support on its maritime claims, seeking closer ties with countries to advocate for a rules-based order that recognises international law.

Classic USA puppeteering playbook.

Is this so that the conscripts will be able to read the US weapons’ user manuals?

Ya, just saw the headline about anti-tax protesters shot dead. Interesting context to say the least.

The article glosses over the real reason for this, which is that Argentina is on an inflation rocket ride due to the new libertarian leadership. Getting paid in currency that is being continually devalued on a daily basis is worse than just getting the beef. China is the world’s largest market for beef.

Time + gravity + chemistry + physics = hot stirring clumpy rock stew

As the stew goes from hot to warm over millions of years things settle into some interesting patterns. The highest concentrations of known gold geological formations happen to be on the oldest pieces of the earth’s crust btw.

 

"Growing the beard" refers to the opposite of jumping the shark; i.e. when a show dramatically improves in quality. In the series Star Trek: The Next Generation the second season is considered to be better in terms of storytelling over the first season. This shift coincided with character William Riker, who was clean-shaven for the first season, growing a mustache and beard that he retained for the second season and most Star Trek media afterwards.

I don't know much of the financial details of how this would work exactly, but it sure seems like ELMU is playing with some serious fire by going ahead with the Twitter purchase to save face, when paying to not do the deal was likely the much more prudent move
