Why would you call a snap election?
By: Fraser Innes
Tags: UK Politics, General Election

For centuries, Prime Ministers have been able to call elections whenever they see fit, this power has been used to call elections when they are riding high in the polls. However, this power was theoretically limited by the Fixed-term Parliaments Act, forcing two-thirds of all MPs to support the election before it can happen. However, this has done little to stop the onslaught of elections.

Since his unexpected rise to Labour leader in 2015, Jeremy Corbyn had been criticising Theresa May and her government, yet wallowing in the polls. When on 18 thof April 2017, Theresa May shocked the UK and interrupted my S3 exam revision to announce a general election. Her advisors were convinced that the Labour Party, more than 15 points behind in the polls, were in a state of disarray and would be defeated by a landslide. May seized this opportunity to put the Labour Party behind for a decade. History tells a different story as the narrow Conservative majority disappeared, leaving a hung parliament rather than the landslide the pundits expected. Theresa May tried to use a polling advantage to call the early election, surprising her opposition, as Prime Ministers have done for decades, however she was met with a well organised movement opposing her and suffered as a result.

When Boris Johnson became Prime Minister in July, he was left with a party short of a majority, the worst party discipline in living memory and promptly withdrew the whip from MPs, it was quite clear passing any meaningful legislation was going to be impossible — he lost almost every vote he put to the house. The election next month was not a surprise to anyone. It was a necessity, like in the second election of 1974, it happened due to a lack of parliamentary arithmetic for the Prime Minister to progress. And while Labour tried to avoid it, the election was inevitable and was coming sooner rather than later.

In conclusion, Governments call snap elections if they think they are in a good position to win; or if they have to as they will not function on the parliamentary arithmetic of the time.
Coronavirus, Sick Pay & The Case For Government Action

Handwashing is a key part of containing Coronavirus. Photocredit:Allie Smith/Unsplash

Sick Pay from day one has been a long-term aspiration for workers. The current spike of interest comes from an apparently ham-fisted employer — Wetherspoons — saying that they wouldn’t pay employees who couldn’t turn in because they were in quarantine or self-isolation, for the first three days. This quickly morphed into a debate about the inadequacies of statutory sick leave.

Let’s try and untangle the two issues.

Wetherspoons have a point of sorts when it comes to the impact of Coronavirus. Why should they pay beyond the legal minimum for staff absence? Indeed, can they afford to do so? This is a question that more and more employers will almost certainly have to deal with in coming weeks/months.

But of course, this is not simply an economic matter — the over-riding concern is public health. And if not paying sick pay — either the statutory or employer-set variety — means that unwell people struggle into work rather than stay home, it greatly undermines the government’s containment/delay strategy. There are so many workers without secure hours and pay that the potential level of non-compliance with medical advice is huge.

That in itself must be enough to prompt a state-led response. The good news here is that this is a government that has already shown itself willing to (a)intervene and (b)spend big if they think it is appropriate. So, making special bespoke arrangements for those in financial distress as a result of quarantine and self-isolation should be possible. (I would suggest paying for it by a one-off time-limited increase in taxation, which may take the PM and Chancellor a little longer to get used to).

Irrespective of the government’s default philosophy (expertly analysed in this podcast, by the way), not to act effectively would be grossly irresponsible in making a bad situation very much worse.

That’s the challenge of Coronavirus. But when the epidemic or pandemic has washed over us, or maybe swerved round us, the underlying problems of statutory sick pay will remain.

And those problems are the entitlement thresh-hold you need to meet, and the level at which it is set.

There’s a triple-lock on eligibility consisting of the requirement to be an employee (not a worker or self-employed), having been off work sick for at least 4 consecutive days, and to be earning an average of £118 per week. You can see immediately where there is room for improvement, and why this benefit is arguably out-of-kilter with the UK’s economy.

If you pass the thresh-hold then you get just short of £95 a week, for 28 weeks. That’s only around a fifth of average earnings.

It’s not surprising that this issue has acquired momentum. And Corona virus or not, it makes no sense by any measure for sick people to come into work. The TUC’s petition for a change is worthy of support.

Unused Auto Capacity to Deliver Packages in Congested Cities
By: Mark Gavagan
Tags: Self Driving Cars, Transportation, Logistics, Delivery, Innovation

Problem: NY/NJ delivery trucks exacerbate horrible congestion, plus it’s expensive and inefficient to reach numerous far-flung neighborhoods.

“The main entryway for packages into New York City, leading to the George Washington Bridge from New Jersey, has become the most congested interchange in the country. Trucks heading toward the bridge travel at 23 miles per hour, down from 30 m.p.h. five years ago… Delivery trucks operated by UPS and FedEx double-park on streets and block bus and bike lanes. They racked up more than 471,000 parking violations last year, a 34 percent increase from 2013.” source: “1.5 Million Packages a Day: The Internet Brings Chaos to N.Y. Streets” The New York Times, Oct. 27, 2019,

Idea: Utilize unused capacity from the 6 million automobile crossings between NJ and NYC every month to transport packages to neighborhoods* in all 5 boroughs. Expand to other congested cities if working.

*Example: from Paramus, NJ to Brooklyn’s Red Hook on a Saturday morning.

Packages are locked in tamper-proof, weather-proof, reusable padded recycled plastic “Transport Boxes” (think shipping containers), with versions customized to fit the types of spaces below

Spaces in vehicles where drivers could haul Transport Boxes: back seat, trunk, SUV cargo area, pickup bed, or (company-owned) “hitch box” attached to cargo hitch (image below — vehicle owner pays for own hitch)

Drivers and vehicles pre-register with the service, which includes checks on credit, driving record and criminal background.

Charge their credit card less than a dollar, then return funds greater than taken via direct deposit (to a different account?) and have user confirm the exact # of cents for each transaction, to verify their bank account (and piggy-back on the extensive ID checks needed to open a bank account)

For individual trips, drivers would indicate planned destinations, routes and timing windows

“Hot” pickup/drop off locations, where driver pulls in, license plate and registration are scanned, and the entire sealed case holding packages is loaded or unloaded in a single movement. Duration = under 60 seconds

Pay drivers in either cash, EZ Pass credits, or (purchased at discount) Starbucks/Amazon gift card credits

No vehicles with smoking, pets, or kids, or more than 7 years old

Free towing service while en-route, in case of any vehicle breakdowns

Is there a driver and/or delivery niche that this might particularly appeal to, to start (like books for Amazon)?

Positives:

Sharing & gig economy has trained people‘s thinking

Some prospective drivers would find the nearly effortless new revenue as a welcome offset for expensive tolls and parking

The efficiency of using unused capacity would appeal to green thinking

Newsworthy — likely to get widespread PR coverage

Could the US Postal Service be a customer?

Could expensive specialty food items be packed in ice and delivered in 1 hour?

HUGE opportunity to expand to include regional & nationwide distances

Useful for B2B, B2C + C2C

Isn’t it great to see how even small entrepreneurs can now enter the restaurant industry and make a big impact without really having to shell out big money? I really like the way you have put out the article, with so much detailing and actionable insights.

The concept of Ghost kitchens is a blessing to independent restaurateurs, as well as the ones that are running a chain of restaurants without having a dine-in facility. However, I’d like to add a slightly different perspective to it.

While getting listed on third-party aggregators like Grub Hub and Doordash is the easiest way to enter the market, we highly recommend that once the infant stage is over, restaurants should have their own in-house online ordering platform so they can save on hefty commissions and improve their chances of survival in today’s cut-throat economy. Let’s not forget the data that they lose out on when getting orders via food aggregators.

Restolabs provides an easy to integrate online ordering platform for all kinds of restaurants and franchisees looking to launch their own independent website or mobile ordering app to get direct orders from their customers. You can learn more about it here https://restolabs.com/.
Down With Plasticware!
By: Delivery Dudes
Tags: Delivery, Environment, Environmental Issues, Food

We’ve all seen the islands of plastic in the ocean, the litter at the beach, and plastic bag upon plastic bag in the hands of grocery store shoppers. Instead of being a part of the problem, we are taking steps to be part of the solution, and you’re invited to join us.

In an effort to curb single-use plastic usage, we’ve partnered with 4ocean to reduce the amount of plasticware included in delivery orders in an effort to protect our environment and oceans. From now on when placing an order with Delivery Dudes, you’ll be presented with the option to opt out of receiving plasticware with your order.

4ocean is a locally based company created by avid surfers Andrew Cooper and Alex Schulze in an effort to remove ocean plastic. They created a global movement that actively removes trash from the ocean and coastlines while inspiring individuals to work together for a cleaner ocean, one pound of trash at a time.

“Quantitatively, [the partnership] will help to reduce the amount of single-use plastic Delivery Dudes will be an accomplice to, while giving customers expanded options on their delivery,” said Christopher Leary, regional manager for Palm Beach County. “Qualitatively, it will help to inform the public, bring awareness to the cause, and further the collaboration between different parties in search of a common goal.”

The hope is that this collaboration helps to create a shift in consciousness and encourage the use of sustainable substitutions in more aspects of everyday life. The first step is with less plasticware, the next step could be utilizing reusable water bottles or carpooling to work.

Delivery Dudes CEO, Jayson Koss, is excited about the partnership “because the planet is awesome and we have to stop polluting it.” He feels that single-use plastics are a product of a disposable mindset, and the partnership is a perfect alignment of our core values.

“I’ve personally wanted to eliminate the waste created by delivery for years,” said Ryan Sturgis, our COO. “We’ve always been thinking about a final solution, which has been difficult to create. The reality is we need to get started in order to make an impact. I’m glad we’re kicking off a program with a local business to raise awareness in our communities.”

We are hungry for change, and we invite you to join us. We are optimistic that raising awareness on single-use plastics and bringing the issue into the spotlight by educating consumers will help curb behavior and create steady and massive change that will help to protect the environment for future generations. We’ve got one planet, so let’s show it some love.

The Last Mile parcel boom

The Big Players

Frank Appel, CEO of DHL

“This year we are expecting a parcel boom the like of which we have never seen before,” said DHL CEO Frank Appel in response to reports that the group has posted a significant jump in Q3 profits.

According to wiwo.de: “If everything runs smoothly and there are no nationwide lockdowns in key regions by the end of the year, Deutsche Post could even reach the upper end of its increased profit margin for 2020. Appel also raised his forecast for free cash flow in 2020, where he now expects to generate more than two billion euros.”

It’s a very similar story at DHL’s competitors across Germany. Financial news organization Handelsblatt forecast similar growth based on figures from DPD and Hermes. According to trade insiders etailment: “Against the background of rising corona case numbers, more shipments are likely to be delivered at the end of the year than ever before.”

Santa has come early, and he’s extended his 30-day money back guarantee.

“Hermes expects 120 million parcel deliveries in the last quarter of 2020 — a fifth more than in the same period in 2019, while GLS expects an increase of more than 100,000 parcels per day. According to the forecast, the parcel logistics company intends to increase the workforce in the sorting centers and delivery departments as well as significantly expand the fleet of delivery vehicles. Some of the costs will be passed on directly. DPD, for example, will charge corporate customers a surcharge of 75 cents per parcel from November to Christmas, while Hermes will charge 25 cents more.”

Amazon has doubled its net profit year-over-year to an astonishing $5.2 billion (up from $2.6 billion for the same period in 2019). Each year at Christmas, Amazon extends the return periods for purchases until January 31 of the following year, but the company is preparing for a longer Christmas than ever before. The Early Black Friday Sale started October 26th, a full month before the official Black Friday on November 27th.

The big players in Last Mile are opening up unexpected revenue streams and returning vast profits in the race to fulfil the needs of Last Mile Delivery–but local deliveries are also experiencing a surge in popularity and demand.

What is Forex?
By: Forex Crypto Stock Api
Tags: What Is Forex Trading, Trading, Forex, Forex Trading

Source from Google

Did you know that the foreign exchange market (Forex) is the largest market in the world with an average volume of 5 trillion dollars a day? Trading values ​​in all global stock markets combined do not even approach this figure. But what does this mean to you? If you take a closer look at Forex trading you will notice a range of exciting trading opportunities that are said to be unmatched in other investment instruments.

FOREX TRANSACTIONS: EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO EXCHANGE

If you have already traveled abroad, you have definitely entered into one of the Forex trades. Let’s say you live in Britain and decide to go on a tourist trip to France so you need to switch your British pounds to euros. In doing so, the exchange rates between the two currencies which in turn depends on supply and demand factors determines the number of euro units you will receive against your pound sterling. The exchange rate fluctuates continuously.

1 pound on Monday may equal 1.9 euros. But on Tuesday, you may get 1.20 euros. This small change may seem completely ineffective. But think about it more broadly. For example, a large international company may need to pay its employees abroad. Imagine how a change in the exchange rate could affect its profits, if we take the example above, so the exchange of one currency against another may be accompanied by significant costs depending on the time of the exchange? These few sharks can turn into huge sums. Either way, you, as a traveler or an employer, may want to keep your money until the exchange rate becomes more favorable.
Recommendations For Trading
By: Jonathan A. Anaya Martínez
Tags: Darwinex, Forex Trading, Trading, Jrt, Forex

Trading is an activity that involves high risks. Given these risks it is advisable to take into account the following aspects:

Do not get out of the strategy: Developing a strategy can take weeks, months or years. A strategy shows you an action plan that you must follow. Do not let the psychological factor make you get out of your strategy or else you will end up regretting it.

Leverage: When you increase leverage you have a great opportunity to increase your profits, however, a greater risk of running out of anything. From my point of view, it all depends on what you have in your pockets. For example: if you manage capital between 500 to 1000 dollars, my recommendation would be to operate with a leverage of 0.01. As you increase your capital, you can gradually increase leverage.

The Stop Loss: A rule of thumb in trading is always and under any circumstances use the stop loss in any operation you open. The stop loss allows you to put a limit on losses and thus protect your capital against market turbulence. My recommendation is that in each operation you risk between 2% and 4% of your capital.

If you follow the above recommendations, you will be able to minimize the impacts of possible losses on your trading operations.

JRT Tracking

Now, I will talk about the behavior of my JRT account this week.

During the week I operated with the EURUSD, CHFJPY, USDCHF and USDCAD pairs.

Before making my decisions it was considered the use of moving averages (EMA). I also considered the fundamentals of the week. The result was positive, obtaining a weekly gain of 3.26% (see graph). In this way, JRT enters positive territory again after having two months of moderate losses.

See you next week
Liquidity Levels
Tags: Trading, Trading System, Forex, Money

WHAT EXACTLY ARE THESE LIQUIDITY LEVELS??

AND WHERE DO THEY COME FROM??

These levels are often called ‘support and resistance’ or ‘supply and demand’. But these are very superficial

(and over simplified) definitions of what institutional liquidity actually means. As finding genuine areas

of institutional liquidity is much more complex than simply drawing some lines across your charts.

Not only must you confirm the levels against the higher time frames, but you must also analyze (and confirm)

a number of additional factors. As it is this confluence of factors that provide the highest degree of accuracy.

Here are 10 factors that need to be analyzed for determining our liquidity levels. And we must conduct this analysis across several time frames (daily, weekly and monthly).

Bank order levels OTC options data (barrier levels) Institutional positioning and order flow Volume profile analysis (through futures data) TPO profiles (“Time Price Opportunity”, known as “Market profiles”) Volatility analysis (using session and composite profiles) POC and VPOC (“Point of Control” and “Volume Point of Control”) Opening prices, closing prices and “Naked”/”Virgin” prices High volume and Low volume areas/nodes Traditional (and peripheral) trend lines and channels

KNOWING WHERE THESE LIQUIDITY LEVELS ARE LOCATED

WILL GIVE YOU AN ENORMOUS ADVANTAGE:

These liquidity levels are absolutely critical because these are the areas where prices will gravitate toward.

And prices must gravitate toward these areas, simply because the institutions need this liquidity.

Remember, retail traders can easily get in and out of the market wherever they want.

But these giant institutions need to find deep pockets of liquidity to fill their orders.

Otherwise, prices can quickly run away from them as they process their trades.

Generating tremendous (unnecessary) costs in both alpha and trading fees.

In addition to this, these liquidity levels are (by far) the best areas for the most profitable

management of your trades (entries, exits, stops, profit targets etc.). Allowing you

to squeeze the most possible pips, from as many trades as possible.

Iran to sell oil in ‘grey market,’ Fed’s Clarida reassures trust in economy: Your Monday briefing
By: Limit Markets
Tags: Stocks, China, Forex Trading, Forex, Money

US President Trump surprisingly threatened China on Sunday that he would hike tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods this week and target hundreds of billions worth others soon.

A tweet to derail talks

Trump had cited progress in trade talks as recently as Friday. “The Trade Deal with China continues, but too slowly, as they attempt to renegotiate. No!” Trump tweeted. The Wall Street Journal reported that China was considering cancelling this week’s trade talks in Washington.

Iran’s contingency plan

Aiming to bypass US sanctions, Iran has mobilized all its resources to sell oil in a “grey market,” state media cited Deputy Oil Minister Amir Hossein Zamaninia. He gave no details and added the action is not smuggling given that US sanctions are not legitimate.

Clarida’s reassurance

Fed Vice Chair Clarida said on Friday the US economy is not heading into a recession, however, advised the “central banks need to be vigilant and alert” to risks to the outlook. He added the economy is in a “very good place.”

The unemployment rate is at a 50-year low at 3.6 percent and the Labor Department’s monthly employment report showed a plunge of 263,000 newly created jobs last month.

Tokyo-DC deal coming

The US and Japan may finalize a trade agreement by the end of May, White House adviser Kudlow said on Friday. After Trump met with Japanese Prime Minister Abe in April, Japan invited him to visit May 25 to May 28.

Brits’ Brexit agony

UK PM May and the opposition Labour Party could reach a Brexit deal within days, a leading Conservative Ruth Davidson said on Saturday, following poor local election results. English voters punished both PM May’s Conservatives and the main opposition Labour Party. The Conservatives had suffered a net loss of 1,332 seats on local councils while the opposition lost 81.

UK Foreign minister Hunt saw a “glimmer of hope” that there might be a deal with Labour soon. However, added that an EU customs union was not a viable long-term option. The Times reported on Sunday that the Conservatives would offer new concessions to Labour when talks resume on Tuesday, including a temporary customs union until a national election due in June 2022.

The $100,000 Super Lottery was launched by the brokerage company NordFX among its clients on April 1. The name speaks for itself: 100 cash prizes of $500, $1,000, $2,500 and a super prize of $ 20,000 will be drawn by the year end.

It is quite easy to take part in the lottery and get a chance to win one or even several of these prizes. It is enough to have a Pro account in NordFX (and for those who do not have it — register and open a new one), top it up with $200 and… just trade.

Having made a trading turnover of only 2 lots in Forex currency pairs or gold (or 4 lots in silver), the trader will automatically receive a virtual lottery ticket. The number of lottery tickets for one participant is not limited. The more deposits and the greater the turnover, the more lottery tickets the participant will have, and the greater their chances of becoming a winner of the prize money.

Unlike trader contests, there is no need for a lottery participant to show exceptional trading results. In this case, both experienced professionals and beginners have equal chances of winning. And they can either use the received prize money in further trading, or take it out without any restrictions.

70 prizes of $500 each, 20 prizes of $1,000 each, 10 prizes of $2,500 and 1 super prize of $20,000 will be drawn. The draws will be held on July 1, October 1, 2021 and January 3, 2022. For more details, visit the NordFX website at https://nordfx.com/promo/super-lottery.html

Stronger housing demand in the UK will support a cyclical economic recovery

Stronger housing demand in the UK will support a cyclical economic recovery Behavist Apr 9·1 min read

All indicators of the UK`s real estate market have shown growth this week. Construction PMI increase from 53.3 to 61.7; RICS House Price Balance — from 54% to 59%; Halifax House rice Index — from 5.2% to 6.5%. The UK`s real estate market is actively recovering due to the effect of decreased government fees and the availability of mortgage lending. Stronger housing demand will support a cyclical economic recovery, which will benefit the Services PMI and Manufacturing PMI in the coming months.

At the same time, house prices are not growing as fast as in Canada or Australia. If prices increase more quickly, it will force the Bank of England to move to tighten monetary policy earlier than market participants believe.

However, the Mortgage Lending and Mortgage Approvals data released earlier week show that the growth in the cost of mortgage loans is due to the purchase of more expensive housing, which reflects a positive trend only for the wealthy segments of the citizens. This trend has already begun to change yet, which means house prices will continue to grow.

NAGA Top Trader, January 2020 — A Success Story
Tags: Social Trading, Trading, Forex, Crypto, Toptraders

It wasn’t too long ago that we announced our Golden Top Traders of 2019, but with only just a month into the new year we already have a contender for our 2020 list! With eye-catching statistics and jaw-dropping results, we felt the need to praise….*drumroll please*…..Schwarz!

$300,000 in profit — in less than a month

So what’s all the fuss about? Well, for one thing Schwarz has a win ratio of over 98%. Oh, and in only the first few weeks of January he generated a profit of more than $300,000! Let us repeat that…roughly $311,000 in less than a month!

What’s even more impressive? His profits are 6 times, yes 6 times, higher than the second top trader! If that’s not impressive then we don’t know what is!

Schwarz is the new black!

Looking at his chart you can see, apart from a misstep in August, that Schwarz has an upward trajectory with a steep direction in the last couple of months.

After a stumble in August, Schwarz hit a peak this January

Schwarz has really shown great trading skills. Of course, just like the majority of traders Schwarz has experienced a few difficult weeks in August. He has not let this misstep affect him; he resiliently persevered and he slowly bounced back showing amazing skill, especially in January! We will extend an invitation and hope to have him in Cyprus for an interview to discuss this further, so stay tuned.

We are rooting for Schwarz and so should you! By simply autocopying Schwarz, you too could have had very similar success this month. To start autocopying, simply visit his profile and press “Auto-Copy” to join the other 300 traders that are already doing so.

If his trading style doesn’t suit you, feel free to check our leaderboard for other Top Traders who may be a better fit.

So let’s give Schwarz a round of applause and let’s wish him an even bigger and better rest of the year!

presence, peace, happiness and sunlight

I awoke letting the convoluted dreams from sleep dissolve without pressing my intellect for possible meanings.

A short time later I began breakfast preparations. I felt the warm swathe of sunshine permeate my small abode — across the kitchen floor and into the bedroom. I gazed at the off-white stone tiled floor and felt a profound peace and happiness in the smallest of details.

I smiled to myself and thought / felt:

I am here.

My heart is full.

Peace.

Peace permeates

Happiness in the stillness of

A morning in sunlight.

It wasn’t an “overnight success”. It took 15 years to live, skirting a mess of miserable emotions; 6 months to jockey for position; 3 months of letting go of everything including my life in preparation for the death of my body* and 6 days of resurrection into that which continues to unfold.

During the 15 years I wasn’t such a dire mess as described above. I was floating in a boat in a becalmed ocean of slime feeding on the fleeting happiness of rarefied airs. In other words, I was an expert at compartmentalization and was kept alive on the higher aspects of my work. Intellectually its difficult to fathom how excruciating physical pain was (is) held in place by unresolved — stuck grief. Emotionally easy.
