Gov'ts Fight to See Who Will Suck Up to Trump the Most.
IMO most governments are re-aligning their trading policies to find other tariff-free markets. Combined world GDP is approximately $106 trillion. US GDP is $27 trillion. China GDP is $18 trillion. China is the chief beneficiary of Trump's idiocy. -

Wall Street plummets ,trillions lost
In principle I would agree with you - dividend income is typically much less risky than seeking asset gains. However, you will recognise that there are some assumptions in your statement. Firstly, if global economies shrink (and we go into a recession), the chances of a dividend being maintained at current levels diminishes. Trump's actions are taking us there rapidly. Secondly, I have strong reasons to believe we are about to enter a global recession, and it will last a long time. As the average age of forum members is quite high, we all may not see share prices recover to previous levels in our lifetimes. Again, Trump's actions - aided by Rachel Reeves in my home country - are taking us there. FWIW, Wise is currently giving me 3.96% interest which exceeds Thailand's 2023 inflation rate of 1.23% so that's my safe haven for instant access funds now. -

Surviving a dramatic 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Myanmar on March 28, it remains intact despite shockwaves striking regions as far as Bangkok, located over 1,000 kilometres from the epicentre.

Ghost Tower Defies Odds: Bangkok's Abandoned Icon Survives Quake
File photo for reference only The Sathorn Unique Tower, a 49-storey structure left in limbo for over thirty years, has become an unexpected symbol of resilience. Surviving a dramatic 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Myanmar on March 28, it remains intact despite shockwaves striking regions as far as Bangkok, located over 1,000 kilometres from the epicentre. While the tremors wreaked havoc, including the collapse of a building under construction in the city, the Ghost Tower stands unmarked, sparking global intrigue. Originally conceived as a luxurious hub overlooking the Chao Phraya River, the tower fell victim to the 1997 Asian financial crisis, which halted its development. Since then, it became infamous as an eerie landmark, drawing thrill-seekers and urban explorers alike. Social media now burns with speculation, as users express amazement at its endurance and ask why the structure hasn't seen revitalisation. The tower, dubbed the "Ghost Tower", surprised many by withstanding a disaster that wasn't as kind to other constructions. The building's survival raises questions about its structural integrity, leading some to wonder if it might finally see completion. For now, it remains a haunting reminder of Bangkok's past, standing tall against nature's wrath. Only future endeavours will determine if this curious relic might rise from its long shadow, reported The Thaiger. -- 2025-04-04 -
