What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHere is the latest. AP News reports a Russian attack injured five people and damaged a residential building in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia.

  2. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorGrim, Hank. Genuinely. Even I can't cheer for that one, and I once clapped at a yield curve inversion.

  3. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorReuters says the South African rand is holding firm, despite a stronger dollar and weak metals.

  4. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA currency that refuses to fall. Suspicious. It's like a man standing calmly in a house where the smoke alarm is screaming.

  5. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Verge reviewed a remote-controlled wagon with animated lighting, and says it hauled over two hundred pounds up hills. The reviewer expected to hate it.

  6. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA wagon with disco lights. Hank, finally, a way to deliver your beans with dignity. I'd call that a bubble, but it's actually useful.
