Plummeting Inflation Raises New Risk for Fed: Rising Real Interest Rates
This means the Fed needs to cut interest rates. Normally, the Fed cuts interest rates because economic activity is slowing sharply. Rather, they are mulling whether softening inflation means real interest rates will be unnecessarily restrictive if they don’t act. Concerns that lower inflation will raise real rates are misplaced because it will also boost purchasing power, consumer confidence and spending, said Maki. “You should be able to cut interest rates quite rapidly if that scary 1970s dynamic isn’t happening, and it isn’t happening," he said.

Gaza and genocide: The International Court of Justice’s orders against Israel expose the West’s hypocrisy - Telegraph India
The order of the International Court of Justice on South Africa’s request for provisional measures to prevent genocide in the Gaza Strip is, in the words of The Economist, a “stinging rebuke” to Israel. The most enthusiastic media advocate of Israel’s continuing war in Gaza, The Economist, led with a headline that read “Charging Israel with genocide makes a mockery of the ICJ”. For the Court to pass provisional orders, it needed to be persuaded that the measures South Africa had requested were linked to the Palestinian rights that were plausibly threatened. In other words, the interim measures South Africa had requested had to be relevant in warding off the plausible risk of genocide for Palestinians in Gaza.
