Oil price rise risks adverse shock to global economy business live
The global economy may be adversely affected by the rise in oil prices. Economists, policymakers, and financial markets have been concerned about the potential for economic disruptions as a result of energy cost inflation since the recent rise in global oil prices. The threat of a new negative shock to the global economy, which could derail the fragile recovery from the pandemic and exacerbate inflationary pressures in both developed and emerging markets, looms large as oil continues to trade above $90 per barrel. Oil prices are expected to rise in 2025 as a result of a number of factors. The ongoing tensions in the Middle East and supply disruptions in nations such as Venezuela and Libya are key examples of geopolitical instability. Crude benchmarks have risen as a result of tightening global supply caused by these developments. Simultaneously, strong demand from growing Asian economies, particularly China and India, has placed additional upward pressure on prices, as industrial production and transportation fuel consumption rebound.

The Wildest Heist You’ve Never Heard Of: Operation Fish
You know that feeling when you stumble across a story so wild, so perfectly absurd, that you can’t believe it’s true? That’s exactly what happened when I first heard about Operation Fish. Picture this: it’s July 1940, and while Europe’s burning under the roar of war, a quiet train pulls into Montreal’s Bonaventure Station. Nothing unusual, right? Just another day of passengers and cargo. But hidden in that moment, three men-Alexander Craig from the Bank of England, and David Mansour and Sydney Perkins from the Bank of Canada-exchange a cryptic greeting about “fish.” And not just any fish, but crates upon crates of it, so important that the fate of the free world hangs in the balance. Sounds like a spy novel, doesn’t it? But here’s the kicker: those crates weren’t filled with fish at all. They held Britain’s entire fortune-gold, bonds, securities-smuggled across the Atlantic in the most audacious heist you’ve never heard of.

The Secrets of Antarctica: What’s Really Happening at the End of the World?
The Secrets of Antarctica: Where Ice Meets Intrigue Antarctica—Earth’s final frontier. A continent so vast, so silent, and so untouched that it seems frozen not only in temperature but in time. For centuries, it remained beyond the reach of explorers and empires, a place of myths and guesses rather than maps and flags. But in the 21st century, things have changed. What was once a barren land of snow and wind is now a focal point of science, strategy, and silent competition. Beneath the ice, it holds secrets—some geological, some political, and some perhaps too vast for us to fully understand.
