    March 14th, 2024: Nuclear Warning, Ivey League Terror, & TikTok Ultimatum

    March 14th, 2024: Nuclear Warning, Ivey League Terror, & TikTok Ultimatum
    In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: We open with a chilling statement from Vladimir Putin, signaling that Russia is not shying away from the nuclear option amid heightened conflicts. Princeton University is facing demands to fire a professor for his alleged links to Iranian state-sponsored terrorism, tracing back to a horrific incident in Berlin in 1992. We move to the Lone Star State to examine Texas's latest measures to reinforce its borders. Despite a Supreme Court ruling, Texas is doubling down on its initiative to strengthen the southern border of the United States. In the Back of the Brief, we cover the sweeping congressional vote that threatens TikTok with a sale ultimatum. With Chinese ownership under scrutiny, the platform faces a potential nationwide ban unless it changes hands.

    Mid-East conflict escalation, two indicators

    Mid-East conflict escalation, two indicators
    On today's show, we look at two indicators of the economic disruptions of the war in Gaza and try to trace how far they will reach.

    We start in the Red Sea, a crucial link in the global supply chain connecting to the Suez Canal, with around 15% of the world's shipping passing through it. This includes oil tankers and massive container ships transporting everything from microchips to furniture. With Houthi rebels attacking container ships in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, shipping lines are re-routing, adding time and cost to delivery. We look at how ocean shipping is a web more than a chain of links, and try to see which parts of the web can take up more strain as the Red Sea and the Suez Canal become too dangerous to pass.

    Then, we'll consider what escalation could mean for the region's most important export: oil. Five steps of escalation each mean a ratcheting up of costs that knock on to other industries, like food. Some prices are likely to rise faster than others, though.

    How the world economy could react to escalation in the Middle East

    How the world economy could react to escalation in the Middle East
    The conflict between Israel and Hamas has been going on for more than three months, and is now beginning to spill into other parts of the Middle East. That includes attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea, rocket attacks by Hezbollah and U.S. airstrikes in Yemen. On today's show, we'll consider what escalation could mean for global trade and the region's most important export: oil.

    The Most Important Number in Investing

    Markets are full of numbers. Big ones. Small ones. Nonsensical ones. But what is the most influential number in investing?

    February 14th, 2023. Cold War 2: Diplomacy Battles for the Pacific

    February 14th, 2023. Cold War 2: Diplomacy Battles for the Pacific
    It’s February 14th. You’re listening to the President’s Daily Brief. Your morning intel starts now. ------ A good day to you, ladies and gentlemen. I’ve got four briefs for you this morning that are shaping America — and the world. First, get ready for lots of talk about inflation today. The latest numbers are set for release about whether inflation is going up or down in America. I’ll explain what to expect — and what it means. Second, The Biden White House is about to sell more of the nation’s emergency supply of oil, which will take us to the lowest levels since 1983. Third, there was a terrible spill of industrial chemicals in eastern Ohio a little over a week ago. It’s a story that deserves our attention, so I’ll fill you in on the latest. Fourth, some good news in our Battle for the Pacific. More island nations are choosing America over China. Later, we close out the podcast with news of a US company choosing China over America. The Ford Motor Company made an important announcement yesterday, and you deserve to know about it before you buy your next car.  ----- Please remember to subscribe if you enjoyed this episode of the President's Daily Brief.
