The good news is breaking out all over.
Whistles In The Graveyard
Less than a year after launching a hedge fund dedicated to the green energy transition, its founder says there’s currently no financial gain to be had from investing in renewable power.
“The whole sector — solar, wind, hydrogen, fuel cells — anything clean is dead for now,” said Nishant Gupta, founder and chief investment officer at London-based Kanou Capital LLP.
Against a barrage of political headwinds in the US, a war-fueled energy crisis and stubbornly high interest rates, large parts of the clean-energy industry are stalling. In the past year, the S&P Global Clean Energy Index has lost 20%, a period during which the S&P 500 Index gained 16%. And with the Trump administration shredding climate policies in the world’s largest economy, many green investors are taking a timeout.

Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it in any time and in any convenient format. We see this agreement as a step toward greater security and solid security guarantees, and I truly hope it will work effectively.

New: President Donald Trump has ordered a halt to all U.S. military aid to Ukraine, intensifying pressure on Volodymyr Zelenskiy just days after a heated confrontation in the Oval Office cast doubt on the support of Ukraine’s most significant ally.
Turn Off The Lights When You Leave
The ongoing cascade of jingoistic pseudo-patriotism keeps pushing the narrative that Canada is incredibly rich thanks to its natural resources. Apparently, the companies that produce those resources aren’t getting that memo.
Three small firms shut their Canadian headquarters in the past nine months to relocate to other countries: Lithium Argentina AG, Solaris Resources Inc. and Falcon Energy Materials Plc. At least two others — Cornish Metals Inc. and Almonty Industries Inc. — are embarking on similar plans. It’s not just small companies: Toronto-based Barrick Gold Corp., the world’s No. 2 miner, has mused about redomiciling to the US.

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal
The head of FBI field office in New York, James Dennehy, has just been forced to resign his post. He claims he was not given a reason why, but the Department of Justice has accused his office of refusing to hand over a trove of Epstein documents to Attorney General Pam Bondi.
After President Trump was elected, Dennehy also told his office to “dig in.”

ZeroHedge- Peace For Our Dime
Indeed, if in 1938 British PM Chamberlain claimed, “Peace for our time”, in 2025 PM Starmer is admitting, “Peace for our dime.” Bloomberg has estimated Europe might have to spend €300bn extra annually in defence spending ahead, but Jakub Janda from the Centre for Security Policy in Prague states: “It is possible to have strong European military to defend Europe. Even without the US. It costs at least 7-10% of GDP annually in initial years and then at least 5% of GDP. When the hell are we starting?” Is Europe serious about doing this? We will hear more on that this week, with a Bundesbank proposal on debt brake reform today, and another European summit on Thursday. Just recall there is a huge price tag for European inaction as well.
