Flamengo footballer previously accused pop star’s security of aggressive behavior to his 11-year-old stepdaughter The Chappell Roan security incident raises a bigger question: what do celebrities owe their fans?

A wave of US and Iranian envoys have come and gone from Islamabad, Pakistan, to maintain the diplomatic attempts – the first round of talks was unfortunately unfruitful. Numerous disputes have halted discussions, with the US administration eager for an agreement but insisting on demands that the Islamic regime considers too harsh. WTI crude surged nearly 10% to $104 at the Globex open, sparking pessimism in global stock markets. The ceasefire is still ongoing, and as long as it continues, there is hope for a more peaceful path ahead. President Trump recently decided to implement a blockade of blockades in the Strait of Hormuz, with Iran maintaining their leverage on the world's most important 10 km location. Will this advance a deal? Uncertain, given ongoing threats to end the truce. Prediction markets now estimate the odds of a deal before April 30 at 20%, down from 35% on Friday. PolyMarket odds for a peace deal.

The moves are still quite timid, definitely not pointing to a return of widespread panic. While the Middle East situation remains in a status quo, traders are still maintaining optimistic views on the conflict's future. It is wise to keep a close eye on the latest developments to be ready to trade accordingly. While doubts remain, it is always best to remain ready.

Dilok Klaisataporn/iStock via Getty Images Since August of last year, I have been arguing that , before 2026 is over, the US will enter into a recession. While I did leave open the possibility that a recession could be avoided, I specified that the probability was quite small. Since then, the data has been pointing ever more in that direction.

It offers up its own measure of consumer confidence known as the Consumer Sentiment Index . It hit an all-time low during the month of April with a reading of 47.6.

As you can tell, things have gotten quite a bit worse over the last two years. And the vast majority of this pain has come since the start of 2025. Author - Federal Reserve Data There are, I would argue, multiple reasons behind this weakness. Although home prices have come down, they are still unaffordable for the vast majority of Americans. In the chart below, you can see the home affordability gap that exists right now. The yellow line here shows the income needed to afford the median home in the US.
