I look forward to seeing my longtime friend, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda, at the G20 Finance Ministers Meetings in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains city of Asheville, North Carolina, at the end of August.
Japan's economy continues to perform well under Prime Minister Takaichi, Governor Ueda, and the Bank of Japan Board, which has demonstrated a strong commitment to monetary and financial stability.
We continue to enjoy a strong relationship and close coordination.
@ChessLiam You want a guy that goes late enough that you can be really overweight if they smash, but early enough that there’s a meaningful benefit to avoiding them if they flop. For me it’s Ladd McConkey (which may also give some signal about the rest of the offense)
Many interpreting Brad’s rationale as you can’t win with ANY two players taking up 70% of cap, when i think the idea is clearly more that JAYLEN BROWN can’t be one of those players. We’re coming off consecutive 2nd and 1st round playoff exits. The Jays made half as much in 2024
Brad Stevens pointed directly to the roster restrictions of having two players taking up 70% of the cap today.
I’m not sure the idea behind the new CBA was to break up homegrown duos due to second apron concerns. Doesn’t feel like a good thing for the league.
I think the Celtics were right to be patient previously. But to me, this graphic is why now is the right time to finally move him: Giannis is a different caliber target than any of these guys
@ErikSTownsend@anasalhajji Sanity check: do you really think it represents a big point of leverage for China, the worlds largest oil importer, over the US, a net exporter, that China can CHOOSE to start buying oil at $200/bbl?

Warsh and Druckenmiller co-authored a 2014 paper critical of this dynamic. You might consider what increased frictions around the energy chokepoint used by all of our trade competitors means for the relative strength of the US real economy
@gbrew24 The Trump administrations goal is to capture a larger share of global production. You immediately accomplish that as an energy exporter. But also disrupt the paradigm of Asian manufacturing fueled by middle eastern energy. The nexus of real economic activity is shifting west
@DKThomp@MazMHussain If your primary framework for viewing the world is increased competition with China et al, putting a giant failed state between them and where they get their energy serves your interests (as worlds largest energy producer). Increased frictions around Hormuz IS the policy
The Celtics heavily scouted Kevin Durant this season. Michael Porter Jr. and Josh Hart, too. They dive deep into every single player in the NBA.
Even Brandon Williams.
Who didn’t even suit up that night.
Normies love escape rooms. It’s like they know deep down in there somewhere that there is something needing to be escaped from. But they don’t know what. So they go into simulated hamster cage escape environment to “have fun”
@TheStalwart I think an underdiscussed element of the entire AI phenomenon is that this is by some measures the greatest mobilization of capex since WW2. A lot of that going into chips today but I think they’re gonna need a lot of HVAC guys and oilfield service workers and construction etc.
Supposedly an unprecedented 2.2 million turnout with 60% above 45 years old. I am going to be an optimist and say @andrewcuomo is going to get the win. If he fails to win, it’s because @CurtisSliwa cares more about himself than NYC. Let’s never forget that.
If Andrew wins, he is going to be a great mayor. Why? Because he will owe nothing to the Democratic Party and he will be working only for his legacy. He can therefore do whatever is right for NYC for the long term without worrying about the political consequences.
@realDonaldTrump is going to want to work with Cuomo to Make NY Great Again, MNYGA. Say: ManyGA
I think the President and Cuomo respect each other which increases the chances they will work well together.
We will know supposedly by 9:30pm.
Say a prayer.
I seriously think Tua’s island upbringing hasn’t instilled in him the discipline to succeed at the NFL level. Guy will throw multiple picks and they’ll cut to him on the sideline laughing it up with his teammates like he’s at a GOD DAMN LUAU
Flores was fired because he was making Tua hold himself accountable for his mistakes and shortcomings. It shattered Tua’s ego.Mike came in as the ‘buddy/friend’ coach.Never held Tua accountable.This is why Tua never takes accountability for anything.
Prove me wrong
