Want a good view of the cinema screen? You’ll need to sign up to the VIP scheme. A quick chat with your doctor? An extra $50,000 will let you jump the queue ‘What’s great about this country is America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest,” Andy Warhol wrote in 1975. “You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke [and] you can drink Coke, too … The idea of America is so wonderful because the more equal something is, the more American it is.” Fifty years later, it’s still true that the Diet Coke Donald Trump is chugging by the caseload in the Oval Office is exactly the same stuff his public can buy in a local shop. But the idea that mass consumerism is characterised by equality is about as dead as Warhol is. There are precious few products or experiences that haven’t been segmented into multiple tiers, from “embarrassing pauper” to “ultra-VIP”, in order to extract as much money from the consumer as possible.

Republican California Sheriff Seizes Ballots In Election Probe Authored by Evgenia Filimianova via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is running to be the next California governor, has seized more than half a million ballots from a November 2025 special election on redistricting, triggering a political and legal confrontation with state officials. Sheriff Chad Bianco of Riverside County speaks during a news conference at the U.S. Capitol on May 15, 2024. Kent Nishimura/Getty Images Bianco obtained the ballots with a court-approved warrant in February as part of what he described as an investigation into an alleged discrepancy between ballot logs and official vote totals. The dispute centers on Riverside County, an inland region east of Los Angeles with roughly 2.5 million residents, where Bianco has twice been elected sheriff. “ Investigations into irregularities must happen so that the public can have full confidence ,” he said in a March 22 post on X. Bianco announced the investigation at a press conference on March 20, saying it stemmed from a complaint by a local citizens group that reviewed public records from the county Registrar of Voters. Bianco alleged that handwritten intake logs showed 611,428 ballots were received, while 657,322 votes were reported to the state—a gap of roughly 45,896 votes. He rejected the registrar’s explanation that official machine counts showed only a minor deviation attributable to human error. Calling the probe a “fact-finding mission,” Bianco said investigators plan to physically count ballots and compare the total with certified results. Clash With Attorney General County election officials and California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, dispute Bianco’s claims and authority to conduct the probe. Bonta has characterized the seizure as unprecedented . In letters sent to the sheriff’s office over the past two months, he wrote that the action was “unacceptable” and that it “sets a dang...

claffra/iStock via Getty Images Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) rates have soared amid the ongoing conflict in Iran. Frontline ( FRO ) is among the largest pure shippers in the Energy sector’s Oil and Gas Storage and Transportation industry. With a reasonable valuation and very impressive technicals & momentum, I have a "B uy" rating on the Cyprus-based $7.2 billion market cap cyclical stock. I’ll detail the most recent quarterly earnings report, FRO’s valuation, and a look at just why the chart is so strong heading into the second quarter. FRO Sharply Outperforming Global Stocks YoY StockCharts.com Back in February, Frontline reported a mixed set of quarterly results. Q4 non-GAAP EPS of $1.03 missed the Wall Street consensus forecast of $1.13, while revenue of $625 million, up 47% from the same period a year earlier, was a solid $168 million beat. Shares inched higher by 1.8% in the session that followed—the fifth consecutive post-reporting climb. Ahead of the May 29 Q1 report, the average implied stock price swing based on the at-the-money straddle expiring soonest after earnings is 8.2%. Today, the implied volatility reading is high at 56%. The next dividend ex-date is slated for June 12. Of course, FRO sports a very high 12.8% forward dividend yield , and short interest on the stock is low at 1.75%. Looking back on the quarter that was, adjusted profits over the October through December period rose to $228 million compared to just $40 million in Q3. Adjusting for items like unrealized derivative losses, synthetic option revaluations, and marketable security changes, the adjusted profit landed at $230.4 million, up from $42.5 million sequentially. Driving the robust numbers was higher TCE earnings, which jumped from $248.2 million to $424.5 million QoQ. Lower finance and ship operating expenses were tailwinds, too. In tandem with solid results, Frontline’s board declared a cash dividend of $1.03 per share for the quarter. Average D aily TCEs And Estimated Cash Br...
