רוסיה חמקה ממכסי "יום השחרור", אך מוסקבה חשופה עדיין בצורה מסוכנת למלחמת הסחר של הנשיא טראמפ מסיבה אחת: נפט. תעשיית הנפט היא המנוע של כלכלת הקרמלין וגם מקור הפגיעוּת העיקרי שלה; נפט וגז מהווים כשליש מהכנסות תקציב המדינה. ● פרשנות | שום חברה או מדינה לא תוכל להחליף את טייוואן בתחום הייצור הזה● צרפת מתקרבת לספק 30 מטוסי קרב לשכנה של ישראל מחירי הנפט הגולמי העולמיים ירדו החודש, ונותרו תנודתיים לאחר שחששות ממיתון בעקבות המכסים אחזו בשוק. מחיר תערובת ה-Urals, המשמשת בסיס ייחוס לתמחור תערובות נפט המיוצאות מרוסיה, נשאר מתחת ל-55 דולר לחבית, נמוך בהרבה מיעד התקציב של שנה זו,…

According to a recent study, the Late Antique Little Ice Age (LALIA), a climate crisis in the 6th century lasting 200 to 300 years, may have contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire, setting the stage for its ultimate collapse in 1453 CE. Geological evidence found in Iceland indicates that the LALIA was more severe than previously thought, playing a key role in the Eastern Roman Empire's decline.The investigation focused on unusual rocks found on a raised beach terrace along Iceland's west coast, which were transported by icebergs during the LALIA. To identify their exact origin, the team crushed…

I periodically like to step back and assess where gold stands when priced in the world’s major currencies—especially after a significant move like we’ve just seen. Looking at gold priced in multiple currencies, rather than just U.S. dollars, helps strip out currency bias and gives a clearer picture of gold’s true intrinsic strength. This approach has proven valuable over the past year—in both September and January, for example—helping me stay confidently bullish on gold even as critics repeatedly called it overbought and predicted a pullback. So with that in mind, let’s take a look at where gold currently stands across the globe’s…

Israeli hotel breakfasts have a great reputation for a reason – they offer a lot of choices, have amazing food, and are more bang for your buck. But I’ve often noticed that the service, even in high-end hotels, isn’t always the best.Maybe it’s because most guests are staying in the hotel and, since breakfast is included, are unlikely to tip, or because there are not enough staff to take care of the number of guests.But the Mamilla Hotel is different. As soon as we walked into the dining room, a waiter approached us and asked us if we wanted…
