I've asked myself for over a year now, why they've not yet used this design for drone protection, as it should be quite effective:

It's not gold going up, it's the dollar going down. Just about 30mg gold at the end of 2015, now down to around 13mg. The dollar must be measured in gold. It cannot be measured in euros (i.e. DXY).
BREAKING: Credit card delinquency rates at Discover Financial, the 6th largest credit card issuer in America, just spiked to 2008 levels, according to Reventure. At Discover, credit card delinquency rates in Q1 2024 jumped from 4.7% to 5.7% in Q1 2024. To put this in…
Credit card debt is surging exponentially, far surpassing levels seen in 2008 and 2020. History suggests that such high levels of credit card debt often precede economic crashes.

Unconfirmed explosions in Iran, Syria and Iraq. Markets moving - Stocks down, commodities up. Israel is striking back.
@MichaelAArouet Britain's found out the issues associated with EU (e.g. uncontrolled mass immigration) continue or worsens. My long-term guess: The UK will rejoin the EU after major reformations.
This is not a joke. This is a Russian assault group getting ready.🤷
Despite Israel's claim of intercepting 99% (likely closer to 95%) of missiles in Iran's recent attack, the sheer volume of Iran's arsenal could still overwhelm Israel's air defenses. With hundreds of thousands of missiles and drones at its disposal, the threat remains significant
I'd like to see that too. Gold is undervalued. Buy range: 2000-2250

Israel weighs options now for painful Iran attack response that won't spark regional war, as Arab states urge restraint. Direct strike unlikely - cyber attack or hitting proxies (Lebanon, Iraq) more likely. Tensions high as Iran vows swift retaliation.

A Middle East war may divert Western support from Ukraine, but it's not in Russia's interest. It would weaken Iran, Russia's key weapons supplier, and jeopardize Moscow's power in the region, gained through its intervention in Syria since 2015.

Iran oil output has risen to a 5 ½-year high as the US didn’t enforce sanctions. From my @opinion column today: “If Biden resumes enforcing the sanctions, it could tighten the market significantly […] I’m dubious Biden would take that course of action” bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

I hear some say the European energy crisis is over. One example from where I live in West London of why that's not the case: the local arts center closed last night. One key reason: energy costs. Pre-crisis, its annual electricity and gas bill ran at ~£49,000; now ~£125,000.
