•The X post by @ZubyMusic retweets a claim that children raised on iPads and phones have a 400% higher risk of brain cancer, describing it as published research rather than fringe material.
•Large-scale studies including CEFALO (children/adolescents), MOBI-Kids, and a 2024 WHO-commissioned review of 63 studies found no statistically significant increased risk of brain tumors from mobile phone or wireless device use, even with long-term or high exposure.
•The specific 400% figure traces primarily to 2017 media statements by IIT professor Girish Kumar on excessive teen smartphone use and interpretations of older data like Interphone or Hardell studies, but these conflict with the prevailing scientific consensus showing no established causal link.
@histories_arch@archeohistories You forgot to write about why this painting is conversial. Velazquez painted himself in the image which is him painting the king and queen who appear in the mirror in the background
Such a divergence has never been seen in markets:
The S&P 500's 3-month implied correlation is down to ~15.0%, the lowest on record.
Implied correlation measures the extent to which stocks are expected to move in tandem, with a reading this low indicating significantly greater and independence among individual stocks within the index.
At the same time, the 12-month implied correlation of the Nasdaq 100 is down to 25.5%, also an all-time low.
This percentage has declined -35 points since 2022 and is well below the long-term average of 45.9%.
This is consistent with a highly concentrated market environment dominated by a narrow group of large-cap technology stocks.
Market leadership has rarely been this narrow.
