If you google the word “Lehman”, you will get tons of results these days, related to the threatened explosion of the financial energy bubble. The analogy is with the insolvency of Lehman Brothers in 2008, which threatened to bring down the entire financial system. What is now occurring, is that utilities exposed on the gas futures market are receiving margin […]

A growing portion of public opinion has been made aware of the fact that the root of the gas price inflation is the highly speculative TTF (Title Transfer Facility) market, which sets the prices of gas for the EU on the basis of a totally fictitious demand driven by financial traders. Calls for regulating or shutting down the TTF for […]

The stunning admission made by German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock on Aug. 31 speaks volumes on the hypocrisy of EU leaders. In a speech in Prague, she said that she would continue to support Ukraine “no matter what my German voters think” and regardless of the hardships for them. Such a confession, we note, with the appropriate specificities, could have […]

In two speeches in the last days, U.S. President Biden has pushed the polarization of U.S. politics to a new level, characterizing the movement loyal to Donald Trump as one of “white supremacists and extremists,” who are inciting violence against their opponents.
