White House trade advisor Peter Navarro brushed off concerns Wednesday about the unexpected drop in U.S. gross domestic product last quarter, saying, ‘We really like where we’re at now,” and pointing to a surge in new domestic investment.”I got to say just one thing about today’s news, that’s the best negative print I have ever seen in my life,” Navarro said on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” after the Commerce Department reported that GDP fell at a 0.3% annualized pace in the first quarter of 2025.”The markets need to, like, look beneath the surface of that” figure, said Navarro, an ardent…
[HONG KONG] Chinese travellers are expected to fork out a record US$968 billion on mainland trips this year, making domestic tourism a bright spot amid concerns about lacklustre consumer spending.Local holidaymakers will splash out nearly 19 per cent more on mainland travel than in 2024, industry group the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), which conducts travel research, said in a forecast. Spending on international holidays is also poised to finally outpace pre-Covid-19 levels in 2025, the council said, after a slower-than-expected recovery last year fell 11 per cent short of the 1.8 trillion yuan (S$324 billion) forecast. The boom comes as…

To be completely honest, I don’t care that much whether chicken meat is white or dark. For me, it’s all about the skin. (Well, it’s also about the feet, tail and innards, but that’s a newsletter for another time.)It doesn’t even have to be crispy skin — I like it steamed and chewy, brittle and ultracrisp, or anywhere in between. Not everyone appreciates the softer, floppy side of chicken skin, but I definitely know Team Crispy is out there. And it is with the latter in mind that Eric “Captain Crunch” Kim brings us a crackling new recipe for crispy…

Sam Panayotovich FOX Sports Betting Analyst Who’s ready to make some football bets? The 2025 NFL Draft came and went, and hype is already building for certain teams and players heading into the month of May. I typically avoid bets on No. 1 overall picks and guys drafted top-five, but to each their own. There are two rookies I absolutely love in the betting market, and, of course, I’m finding a way to bet against the Kansas City Chiefs. Understand if you’re betting Overs on players like Cam Ward and Ashton Jeanty, it’s probably best to bet ‘em early. Those numbers will…

A judge later issued an order barring the government from removing him from the state or country. “Yes you might think I am free, but my freedom is interlinked with the freedom of many other students,” Mahdawi said outside the courthouse in Burlington, Vermont, shortly after being released. Mahdawi’s…
“I WOULD like to thank Donald Trump without whom this would not have been possible.” Mark Carney, Canada’s 24th prime minister, was too tactful on Monday (Apr 28) to actually give the US president credit for his party’s return to office. But it is the Lord’s truth. By coveting Canada’s sovereignty, Trump turned the semi-Trumpian Conservative party’s projected landslide into defeat in the space of weeks. Not bad for the US president’s first 100 days. He might do a similar favour for Australia’s incumbent Labor party this weekend without even threatening to annexe the country.But Carney deserves credit for nailing…
