The European Commission agreed on a tough new approach to trade relations with China, at a rare Beijing-focused debate among Brussels’ leadership on Friday.

Could tokenisation allow EU residents to buy fractional ownership in property across Europe?

I'm trying to understand the practical side of tokenised real-world assets, particularly real estate. This question came to mind after reading about the EU's DLT Pilot Regime and ongoing discussions around tokenised assets. Most of the material focuses on financial infrastructure and regulation, but I'm more interested in what this could mean for ordinary investors and cross-border real estate investing within Europe. I wanted to diversify my investments across several European countries rather

After 4 years of war the Armed Forces of Ukraine finally achieved to halt the constant, but ever-slowing Russian offensive. If we can even call the endless meat wave attacks that Russia is conducting in the past few years an “offensive”. Escalation, or de-escalation? The previously surfacing rumours about a new Russian mobilisation are becoming more credible every month. If Ukraine continues to inflict higher casualties than what Russia can recruit month after month, Putin will be forced to choo

Asia faces ‘costly paradox’ over divergent AI rules in US and EU

Asian technology firms are facing a “costly paradox” as they try to navigate an increasingly uneven global AI rule book, with divergent compliance requirements in the European Union and the United States threatening to blunt their competitive edge. Analysts say the challenge is acute for Asian companies. While the EU has a single, comprehensive and legally binding artificial intelligence framework based on the landmark EU AI Act, US technology-related laws are decentralised at the state...

I'm sailing through a sea of fog, looking for a lighthouse

Hi, everyone. I just joined this community because I’m looking for advice from people who are definitely more knowledgeable than I am when it comes to financial investments. Due to a series of life’s twists and turns, I now find myself managing a large sum of money—about one million euros. I’m interested in the financial world; I research stocks that catch my eye, but aside from a few silly and insignificant experiences with CFDs (we’re talking a few hundred euros), I’ve never made any serious i

!!! NASDAQ and S&P changing seasoning and profitability requirements to manipulate index funds into buying massive IPOs

Traditionally, the major indices have all required a company to have traded publicly for a 1 year seasoning period before listing them on the index. This gives the market time to evaluate a company's stock and allow its price to stabilize after IPO before entering the index. NASDAQ has already reduced its seasoning period to just 15 TRADING DAYS (!!!) and S&P is set to follow by shortening their seasoning period down to six months effective June 8. Additionally, S&P is seeking to remove its requ
