The European Union's strict regulation of big tech companies is known around the world, often sparring with major social media platforms such as Facebook and X over content moderation and clashing with companies such as Apple and Google over antitrust issues....

Gary Smith, professor of economics at Pomona College, and Jeffrey Funk, winner of the NTT DoCoMo Prize in Mobile Science, wrote that Trump's embrace of Bitcoin, or the largest "pull-up-and-sell" in history, would certainly push up the price of Bitcoin if the US federal government spent trillions of dollars buying it. But how can the US government pay off the national debt by buying Bitcoin at an overvalued price? Perhaps Trump envisions a "pull-up-and-sell". In "pull-up-and-sell"...
"Following the stronger-than-expected jobs report, we revised our outlook for the Fed: we no longer expect any further rate cuts, inflation is above target, risks are skewed to the upside, economic activity is strong and the labor market appears to have stabilized," Bank of America economist Stephen Juneau said in a note on Monday.

On January 10, the US jobs report was positive, as the expected pace of interest rate cuts slowed, the dollar rose, and the BTC spot price fell below $93,000. Pandl said: "Bitcoin appears to be subdued by the strength of the dollar, which is rising due to the tougher policy of the Federal Reserve and the threat of tariffs. Today...

Canada currently spends about 1.25%, or C $40 billion per year. Holt calculates that raising this to 2% of NATO commitments would be equivalent to C $60 billion per year if implemented immediately, even though Canada has committed to 2...
Tony Stillo, director of the Canadian economy at Oxford Economics, said the Conservative Party's agenda could have a major impact on Canada's economic prospects in 2025 and beyond, and if Canadians vote to remove the incumbent Liberal Party, the details will be the devil.

Stillo said Canada could hold a...

Economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff wrote on the X platform that Trump has recently expressed interest in buying Greenland, and has also hinted at the possible repossession of the Panama Canal. These may be Trump's negotiating tactics to buy it back at a good price, but if these ideas sound crazy, they are far less crazy than the United States buying bitcoin.
