Impact on oil demand and prices of the new U.S. fuel efficiency standards.
05/13/2011
Oil demand could drop by as much as 2.6 million barrels a day by 2025, as a result of the new U.S. fuel efficiency standards for 49 mpg by 2025. Fuel efficiency gains in China, India and other emerging market countries and increasing stability in the middle east, and the technological advances for low environmental impact shale oil could change the entire dynamic of world oil demand and prices. This happened in an earlier period of fuel efficency gains in the 1980's resulting in low crude oil prices.

Support for Japan's Abe government and the Bank of Japan's policy to fight deflation
05/12/2011
The IMF's Lagarde calls Japan's policy "sound," and U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Bernanke says he supports countries looking at domestic economies when conducting monetary policy. The overall effect would be to help the global economy through a better performing domestic economy, says Bernanke. Gaining support in the global community for Japan's moves to reduce the value of the yen is important for the Abe administration and Japanese finance minister Taro Aso. These views were expressed at the G-20 meeting in Moscow in Feb. 2013.

Increasing correlation between the U.S. discretionary consumer sector and the energy sector
05/17/2011
Consumer spending holds up in the face of higher gasoline prices. A number of reasons offered for this- a large portion of consumer spending coming from affluent households, the rebound in stocks, the higher fuel efficiency of vehicles in 2011 reducing the impact of higher gasoline prices, and low natural gas prices so that electricity prices are not affected.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
