Student M22 with a mini-job and long-distance relationship

Here's an obligatory Sankey. I am currently studying computer science in a large city in northern Germany and live with my sister in a 2-room apartment. I have a well-paid mini-job in the IT sector with just a few hours. The rent is paid by the parents, along with insurance. The high vacation costs are because my boyfriend lives in Switzerland and we go on vacation together (in central/southern Germany) every 4-6 weeks. And yes, I have YouTube P

Trump urges new spy chief Pulte to gut US intelligence community

US President Donald Trump said Friday he wants his incoming acting spy chief to start firing employees, deepening the controversy over the appointment of a man with no previous intelligence experience. Bill Pulte, a Trump loyalist who heads the Federal Housing Finance Agency, was named by the Republican president on Tuesday as acting Director of National Intelligence. “If he cut, I wouldn’t mind that,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One, adding that the number of employees in Pulte’s...

Healthcare doomvesting - opportunities in dystopia

The US healthcare system is an ongoing train wreck and federal and state governments have yet to implement any real plan for fixing it other than randomly throwing cash at one segment or another. What I want to do here is provide an overview of the problems and which companies are poised to profit off of them. This is going to be long because healthcare is very complicated. I'm not including alternative medicine because grifters abound in that market so I haven't done any research on it. First l

Regional Leaders Back Taliban Trade Ties While EU Holds the Line

Top level officials from Central and South Asia convened in Tashkent on June 4 to discuss regional trade and connectivity under a format known as the Termez Dialogue. Participants were unanimous in seeing a strategic need to weave Afghanistan into regional trade networks, but discussion on specific tactics to achieve that aim did not feature prominently at the gathering. For Central Asian states, the shortest route to a seaport runs through Afghanistan. But there are broader reasons for deepenin

Buying a house without significant equity?

Good evening everyone, I need an assessment about buying a house. It was always a big wish, but due to the crazy prices in the area we pretty much ruled it out for ourselves. Now our dream house is being sold in our town and the thoughts are there. About our finances: - 28 and 34 years old, both civil servants - Dzt. I have 2500€ net, from October after increasing my working hours and moving up the level I will be at 3000€. My husband has a basic salary of €3100, earned through

SPR Borrowers Owe Uncle Sam 40 Million Extra Barrels

The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve has taken a beating during the Iran war, but Energy Secretary Chris Wright says the government's emergency oil stash is headed for a surprisingly lucrative refill. Companies that borrowed crude from the SPR during the conflict will return those barrels with premiums attached, leaving the reserve about 40 million barrels larger than it would have been otherwise once the war ends, Wright said Friday. For an oil market accustomed to hearing about SPR drawdowns, em

Using student loan as a financial buffer during graduation, sensible or overthinking it?

Hey, looking for a sanity check on something I've been considering. I'm a student in the Netherlands nearing the end of my studies, currently working part-time and receiving some grants, so I have no existing debt and don't actually need the money right now to get by. I also don't have the option of financial support from family, so whatever buffer I build, I have to build myself. That context is part of why I'm thinking about this. I'm eligible for a government loan through DUO under the SF35 s

Bank of England Official Says Oil Crisis Clouds Rate Outlook

The Bank of England may know where inflation is headed, but it has a much harder time knowing where oil—and interest rates—are headed. That was the message from Bank of England policymaker Swati Dhingra on Friday, as the ongoing Middle East energy crisis continues to complicate the outlook for interest rates. "If you ask me what's my interest rate decision next month going to look like or in the future, I think that's very hard to say, because the big elephant in the room here is what happens to

How Chinese drink chains are testing the limits of soft power

Makeda George steps out of a Mixue store in downtown Brooklyn, New York, clutching a bubble tea as she weaves through a crowd of teenagers. The local resident says she had been eager to try the brand after noticing a surge of new outlets opening in recent months. “I decided to try the bubble tea. It was good,” she said, adding that she did not know it was a Chinese drink chain but figured it was Asian given the branding. “Everywhere you go, every nook, every cranny, you just see them popping...

S&P Rejects Fast Entry for SpaceX, Delaying $14B in Passive Inflows

Earlier today, in our forensic analysis of the SpaceX IPO, we said that according to BNP estimates, the company's inclusion into the S&P 500 some 6 months after the offering would unlock $13.4 billion worth of inflows. It turns out that that is not going to happen 6 months after the IPO. In fact, the earliest it may happen is 12 months after Friday's break for trading... and realistically well after that. That's because after the close today, S&P Dow Jones Indices said it would keep its existing

Oil Markets Stop Believing Trump’s Peace Narrative

Fresh strikes on Kuwait and Oman undermine hopes of a U.S.-Iran de-escalation, keeping oil markets on edge and traders skeptical of diplomatic progress. Friday, June 05, 2026 This week’s strikes on Kuwait and the Friday morning attack on Oman have dented hopes for a de-escalation between US and Iran following the much-publicized Israel-Lebanon ceasefire. Whilst Oman’s main port is reportedly up and running again, capping ICE Brent around the $95 per barrel mark, most global crude benchmarks will

Trump Floats Meeting Iran's Supreme Leader, But Only If There's A Deal

US President Donald Trump said the United States will win the conflict with Iran either "militarily or on paper," referring to the fitful negotiations with Tehran, and he suggested he could meet with Iran's reclusive supreme leader "if it was to make a deal." "We're going to win one way or the other," Trump told reporters at the White House. "It's going to be militarily or on paper." Trump also said he had no desire to meet with Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, who has not been seen sinc
