Rachel Reeves has spent the past year taking brickbats for events and circumstances largely beyond her control. Today she got to shift the arc of history a little. Britain will be better off for it. My latest for @bylinetimes.bsky.social

'Britain Will Be Better off fo...

German equites are up a remarkable 20% this year and have massively outperformed US equities. But are they now over-valued? My latest on the market’s Merz-mania

Europe's Moment?

Is this Europe’s moment? My latest on what it would take to transform Europe’s economic fortunes in response to the Trump/Putin shock

Europe's Moment?

Viva Espana! My latest on Spain’s remarkable recovery and its lessons for the wider eurozone

Europe's Moment?

The British government’s threat to introduce mandatory pension fund investment in UK assets would be a monumental act of self-harm. Few countries have more to lose from the weaponisation of capital

Europe's Moment?

My latest with thoughts on Spain's remarkable recovery, can the EU seize its moment, are German stocks now overvalued, and why British talk of mandatory investment would be a monumental act of self-harm

Another insightful graphic about Europa and the forces - tidal heating and Jupiter’s variable magnetic field - that drive the physical processes in the subsurface ocean and the ice shell, which lead to the various geological features on Europa.

Nice illustration of the Europa Clipper’s odyssey to Jupiter and Europa by Scientific Illustrator Austin Fisher titled "Between the devil and the deep blue sea."

Fisher was awarded an Image of Merit for Graphic Design Media for this infographic.

The infographic was part of this excellent article on the NASA Europa Clipper mission published in Sept. 2024.

Note that Clipper will not land on Europa; it will make close flybys and sample its plumes.

20mph speed limits save lives. Research from London:

"Child casualties dropped by 46%, and children killed by 75%"

20mph = Fewer maimed and dead children.

Difficult to argue with that.
