Cut number of flights mean use less jet fuel, cut carbon emission, use less fossils, retard climate damage and hence should cause traded crude prices to fall. However, there is a notable increase in fighter jets flights particularly in the Taiwan Straits. All in all, fossils demand should be still very robust šŖš¼šŖšæ

These days, it is quite sexy for big tech companies to lay off employees.......the CEOs called this exercise "prudence", while some others called it "right sizing" š¤ Yester-year, these same companies were busy scouting new hires and willing to pay top dollar to get them........the CEO called this exercise "talent acquisition"š¤
Salesforce Cuts Hundreds of Sales Workers on "Accountability"
When key indexes and equities are down, inflation and interest rates are high, almost all analysts call for a sell. If any analysts call for a buy, they will certainly say long term buy for those with long time horizon. Doesn't sound too difficult to analyse ! What you don't get to hear is a genius analyst who has a capability to pick short term winners in this current bear markets.......now does this sound difficult ????? š„ø
A difficult and challenging business situation for Peloton especially when cash is depleting fast š. There are more than a dozen similar bikes out there, endorsed by some leading athletes, and at cheaper prices. Very often, it is very very difficult to save a drowning man when he's already drowned ā¹ļøā¹ļø
Peloton Interactive: Do Not Test The Depth Of The River With Both Feet
Sounds great and good work by Turkish president. But so far it is only black ink on a white piece of paper. Grains can really ship out safely to hungry countries and solve world hunger problem ? And also lower global food inflation ? Grains from Ukraine can really solve so many and so much world problems......sounds like magical grains š„øšš¤š„³š§š¤
Ukraine, Russia Reach Deal to Unblock Grain Exports Stranded by War
Perhaps it is a humble lesson for Apple being tooreliant on China for its supply chain, developmentand production. May be zero Covid is a very distant target, and may be before this zero target can be reach, China may be dealing with monkeypox outbreaks. Zero target could be a continuous never ending journey, not a destination. In the meantime, PCR testing is flourishing in China because at this moment of zero Covid pursuit, every person is required to be tested every 2 days š¤š¤
Apple's iPhone Development Schedule Delayed By China Lockdowns - Nikkei
Short sellers' report are very clever. They sell first prior to the release of report. Then the stock price goes down. Some companies then engage and pay the services of independent auditors and lawyers to conduct investigations and submit findingreports. Often than not, reports is negative of wrong doings. Subsequently, analysts advocate a strong buy on the stock, saying stock price can potentially double........all events seems very well engineered. Very very clever indeed š„øš¤š„øš¤
NIO Concludes Internal Review of Seller Report; Street Says Buy
$Twitter(TWTR)$A classic demonstration and display of power of what the wealthiest can do. Signed on the dot, made a commitment and then much later demand some statistics to be proven, if not perhaps deeper discount should be warranted. Wonder what may happen if other business acquirers emulate him ?? However, Mr Elon is capable to fly to the stratosphere, so he can empower himself. Should someday investors decide to value TSLA fairly like GM or Ford, then he may not be able to demonstrate and display the kind of power he's doing right now š¤š¤š¤
These days, many are acting like experts to second guess US economic inflation status, whether inflation has already peaked, what is the ideal Fedfunds rate, trying to teach what and how Fed Reserve should do right, bla bla bla.......only say but without facts and statistical data !!!!!!! These people are trying to play the role of God š„øš„øš„øš„ø
Elon Musk Says Inflation May Have Peaked. Bill Ackman Agrees, but Says the Fed Is Still Making a Mistake
War in Ukraine, supply chain disruptions, China lockdowns, rising inflation, geopolitical uncertainties.............these are all very sexy and fashionable terms all CEOs are using these days during reporting season.

$Novavax(NVAX)$Dun be sad and despair. Perhaps the market is testing your patience. It's just about 3 mths since the last severe Omicron wave for most countries. Almost all countries hv let loosealmost everything including testing. Country like Denmark has halted vaccination. Many treat the virus as not dangerous and dead. May be, just may be, after 4-6 mths, a new dangerous corona virus of concern will emerge, and then probably hospitals may get populated and overwhelmed. And then many countries will start scrambling for vaccines allocation and start persuade people to get the shot. That's when vaccine makers will start to shine again and the cash registers will start to ring non-stop. So stay patient, be vigilant and safe,and watch how
I do not quite understand the author explanation. I think Russia will keep pumping even more oil to sell to its friendly nations. China is its "friend with no limits", India is buying more and more, Sri Lanka is begging Russia to sell, other nations is busy negotiating with Russia for purchase. Russia is selling at discounts from market prices. Those countries who purchase it keep smiling non-stop.Very troublesome indeed š¤š¤š¤š¤
JPMorgan Sees "Stratospheric" $380 Oil on Worst-Case Russian Cut
Many great companies are always good investments in the "long term" and "longer term". Historical charts almost always say so. However, when some people take great efforts and pains to write out how cheap and how ridiculously low price a stock has become, it pays to be very caution. Microsoft is certainly a great company, so are companies like IBM and Intel though both these companies prices didn't perform great over the years. Cheap can become cheaper, especially during unfavourable economic conditions. Cheaper and greater prices can be obtained when some people dump great companies in times of fear. Very long ago, a wise elderly professor once said "Greater opportunities favour the patient, that's how transfer of wealth takes place"..........please deeply reflect š¤š¤š¤š¤
Wow š®.......if there's truth, another Luckin in the making. Sounds like danger šŖ . Such news is difficult to verify by retail investors as there is no solid facts. And surely Nio will deny.

Nio Plays "Accounting Games to Inflate Revenue" Says Grizzly Research
When market is bull and economic activity is healthy, many people will say this stock and that stock is grossly undervalued. But when geopolitical climate is dire, financial markets are stressed and undesirable inflation sets in, many people will say this stock and that stock is grossly overvalued. These are all very classical analysis š¤š¤
Looks like major oil companies biz boom when major oil producing countries engage in military battles. Looks like if the battle prolongs, the more they will benefit and the longer they will prosper. Governments of major oil producing countries will also enjoy collecting more tax revenue. Being blessed with black crude is truly a blessing š¤

I think it's no problem š.

Holders of Lucid Group Stock Ought to Worry About Legal Troubles Brewing
Please think deeply when others are screaming "definitely a buy right now" and "50% upside". Markets are treacherous places and so are screaming words. On a quiet note, real good value buys are often non-screaming. And if you observe carefully, Mr Buffet almost never scream when he buys. So it is better to quietly deeply reflect before you react to someone else's screaming š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤
What goes up will finally has to come down. It's just the law of nature. The Fed will use its tools togradually fix it, so be patient. One thing that will never comes down after going up is consumers' food prices. One classic example is Big Mac. You can ask Mr Mac, "if inflation number drops, will you reduce your price ?" . Probably Mr Mac just smile š šāŗļøš
U.S. Consumer Price Index Surges 9.1% in June, Hottest Rate in Over 40 Years
Hmmm š¤........ this saga is a strange case of American corporate business acquisition !!!! So an influential billionaire can shoutout an acquisition of an agreed price, can also then back out citing false and misleading data, followed by threats of court suits, and then kind of officially relenting tooriginally agreed acquisition, but then the target acquisition company traded price doesn't reflect reliable acquisition !!!!! And worse still, acquirer hasn't got funding firm yet !!! How strange and complex case is that !!!!! I urge Harvard Business School post grads to review and make a case study of this strange American corporate acquisition š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤
