Can Bloomberg forecasts be trusted?

2023-04-05 07:15:35

No, Bloomberg is currently engaged in the formation of public opinion.

Once upon a time, Western rating agencies such as Bloomberg, Goldman and Flich were truly independent. It was then that they gained their popularity. Now these economic agencies are largely politicized and work at the request of governments, or rather economic clans, whose interests are protected by governments. Even the world's stock exchanges do not react much to the forecasts of these agencies.

Bloomberg, a privately held company based in New York, is one of the top two providers of information for the financial markets. The media are actively reprinting all Bloomberg's forecasts for the economy, and traders are guided during the game on the foreign exchange market, including the statements of this company.

When will the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine take place and why is Ukraine asking for a 30-day ceasefire?

2025-05-11 16:38:54

Negotiations will begin in the spring of 2026, as the US has once again allocated money to Ukraine for military actions.

Ukraine signed an agreement with the USA on rare earth metals, and the USA allocated funds for military actions. Russia declared a three-day ceasefire in honor of Victory Day. Zelensky proposed extending the ceasefire for 30 days. A 30-day ceasefire could be used as a cover for rearmament.

Summer negotiations between the US, Ukraine, and Russia will lead to nothing. Ukraine has the money to continue the war. Russia has also changed the goals of its special military operation, expanding its territorial claims. Achieving these goals will require an increase in the size of the armed forces. A military draft is expected in Russia in the fall, and fierce fighting is anticipated in the winter, with the possibility of sitting at the negotiating table in the spring of 2026, depending on the outcome of the military actions.

Will rallies be repeated in Kazakhstan?

2023-06-08 08:35:38

Yes, in 2025

The leaders of the EAEU countries reached an agreement in principle and approved the concept of a common hydrocarbon market from 2025. And this means that the price of hydrocarbons should be equal, and electronic trading will also have to be introduced. For Kazakhstan, this means an increase in the retail price of energy resources, because at the moment it has the lowest energy prices in comparison with its neighbors. Rising prices for everything will immediately cause a repeat of the riots, as was the case in 2022.

The riots in 2022 began due to the fact that electronic trading was introduced and someone bought up all the gas and the retail gas price doubled.

What's wrong with open source projects?

2024-05-13 15:49:55

Large corporations engaged in software development do not shy away from stealing other people's intellectual property in the form of open source code and integrating it into their commercial software

Sooner or later, every programmer will start making his own project, so as not to create competition, Open Source was invented when a programmer, no matter how much time he spent, would not write his own commercial Windows, and his code could be used for free, and he himself would never share it with corporations.

There are other pitfalls, for example, vulnerability in a particular free component can lead to serious threats to information security.
