U.S.-Iran War Ceasefire: Keeping It Is Harder Than Making It
A U.S.-Iran ceasefire is possible. But markets care less about the document than whether it can stabilize Hormuz, oil, inflation, and the rate path for long enough to be trusted.
Hyundai Motor: The Robot Future Still Needs the Car Business
Hyundai earns today through cars and tries to widen tomorrow through robots and software-defined vehicles. The real test is whether Atlas can move from a stage story to measurable factory productivity.
Watergate’s Memory: Could the Trump Era Bring Back a 1970s-Style Slump?
Watergate did not cause the 1970s slump by itself. The deeper problem was the collision of political distrust with the Nixon shock, oil shock, inflation, and rates. The Trump-era risk should be read through the same lens.
