- Dictation: There's been considerable rocket fire between Israel and Hisblind(?)Hezbollah Lebanon in recent days. ThousandsDozens of rockets have been fired into northern Israel by Halbala(?)Hezbollah and it's been significant damage done by Israeli strikes in Lebanon. This strategyfootage is from? Yaroun and in the southwestsouth-west of Lebenan? you can see buildings have been flattened inover* a large area. We've been mapping the way to the the wider picture too. If you focus on the region, this map is based on data from the Institute of Study of War,. It's up to date as of Monday morning, so it doesn't include the most recent strikes. It doesn't include reported strikes xxx*.We haven't* verified them all, and theythere maybe some we don't know about? But you can see here in pop on purple recent herespak(?) Hezbollah attack on Israel*.* and in red you can see Israeli strikes in Lebanon. This focuses on a few examples to show the extent of the damage you can see in Lebanon. Firstly this one is from Arab Saline(?)Arabsalim in southern Lebanon 16 kilometers from the border ofwith Israel. We verify this footage by looking at the surrounding area and*.It* matching satellite images from the for(?) before the rate this raid and building still standing in this footage. And we're confident the footage is from Tuesday morning when it was first posted online. What we it clearly sure shows is that a considerable level of damage. Let me also show you this footage from Berrod(?) Beirut . Israel says it's targeting hesbalad(?) Hezbollah 's stronghold, particular areas of weapons are been being stored. And this footage does appear to show secondary explosions. You can hear, there's already damage done, the building is on fire, and about 40 seconds into the footage which has been posted online, there's another explosion. A projectile flies up (?) the building, and that's lately? likely caused by ammunition blowing up. There are other examples like this. We're 've shown them to experts, who see again this is likely called by ammunition exploding. With damages against the backdrop Israel is sending more troops into Lebanon. On Tuesday Israeli defense forces confirmed they were expanding the operations into the southwest. And like what's happening in Gaza, this is a sort of warning circulated by the IDF. This one in Arabic tells people in the south to be careful not to move south, and it tells many not to return to their homes for their own safety. In recent months, hundreds of thousands of people in Lebanon have been displaced and much of that has been happening in the south of the country. Where we've seen a lot of the damage too.

It's all to do with a claim the white house prioritising the funding for these countries of America affected by Hurricane kalinKatrina and Milton. Former senator Rick Scott posted on X "If we renamed Florida and North Carolina to Lebanon and Ukraine maybe Kamala Harris would send disaster relief faster". And former President Donald Trump weighed in this claim: "They have no funds to take care of that, they have no funds, they have no workers, they have no nothing". So what are the facts? The U.S. government confirmed last week it will provide more humanitarian relief to people in Lebanon and another 150m dollars, and it has given a lot of money to Ukraine, around 100 billion dollars to startsince the start aof the full-scale war against Russia. But Fema(?) anthe department for responsible for responding to events in the U.S like carocaines(?)Hurricanes has dedicated to disaster relief budget. It saidsays it has 11 billion left of that for the rest of this year. The agency has appealed for the*/* more funding for future hurricanes aand warnwarned of a lack of staff. But insteadit insists it has enough resources to meet immediate needs. "I have enough funding to get through this event and support all of the needs of everyone that was impacted by Hurricane Hellin(?)Helene and Hurricane Milton(?) fromand what we expect from Milton(?)". What elsesThe White Houses has pushing back on claims as*/* it hasn't provided funds quickly enough ofin the aftermath of Hurricane Milton which delesgatedevastated seperateof several U.S.AU.S States. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been provided to victims so far, and the government says billions more areon hand toas Hurricane Milton hits.

So well we're around the peak of the 11-year solar cycle, that allows us . That allows for more solar activity and more frequent auroras.

Dictation: Inflation has been coming down, and now interest rates are coming down. There are is some uncertain in geopolitical events around the world. We don't know what is happening in Ukraine and the Middle-East, is now a good time to invest? Are you telling your investors now pull pour money into the market because inflation is coming down investor and interest rates are coming down? Will or do you tell them to wait until till after the presidential election? For example, if we look at the last couple of years, you have very high rates on cash, you can make 5% with very little risks on treasury bills, money market funds. That's really unusual as a result of that, money market funds at all time highs 6.7 trillion dollars, if you think about that, that's very good for saver and investors, it's also been very good for the U.S. economy. Think of all that interests throwing, coming off of this money market funds and it's almost a percent of economy growth. Now let's look at the next couple of years, rates on cash are coming down. Now it's time to make sure you have a bond portfolio because you can get a higher returns there over time. Lower rates are typically very good for the stock market as well. As long as you have a soft landing economy, and that is actually our forcast. Historically when rates are going up fairly dramatically and then when the fed lowers them, we all think going what's next called (?) euphemistically a a hard landing, which is a u..sm(?) euphemism called recession. You're just saying you think we're having a soft landing, why do you think that this fed is so smart that they gonna be get us in a lower interest rate level without going into a recession. The truth is the soft landing is in on our awear, right? During my career ther's only have been one, in the mid 1990s. But the reason we think that we're on a path right now for a soft landing is that the economic growth remains very good and our forcast is for that momentum continuing next year. Stock markets are doing very well, creating wealth for people, consumers, and earnings are doing quite well, right? Fundamentals are really matter and stock market are gonna be up 10% or so this year. And again we see a projectory trajectory for that to continue next year.

Dictation: Are businesses still committed to supporting Black talent? After George Floyd was murdered, thousands of pounds were pledged on promises made to prove improve prospect of black worker in the City of London. But now almost 5 years later and disappointed with the results, many firms are pulling back on black focuses recruiment recruitment schemes and ditching ditching diversity, equity and inclusion back to norm(?). Some black professionals we've spoken to who asked to remain anonymous report feeling abandoned, and others say their empolyers weren't ready to welcome diverse talent, speaking of insentitive managers, and hostile working envirionments. Research shows that the pace of change is slowing. It will now take 50 years for the portion proportion of black talent in U.K. financial services to match the percentage of Black employees in the working age population. In investment banking representation at senior levels at just 0.5%, and Black talent is also leaving the city before it reaches the top jobs. In U.K. law firms, black mid-level employees are 4 times more likely to leave the sector than their peers. And this is just what we know. Most city firms even don't collect or don't publish. Statistics about their Black employees, making it difficult to hold them accountable, but face with dwindling(?) dwindling budget, and a tense of political climate, commiting how hard(?) wholeheartedly to this remainting quality, might not be so simple.
