Greenification and its Impact on Commodity Prices - Australian Investment Education

One of the movements that has impacted commodity prices a lot the last few years is what Andrew Baxter likes to call greenification. The process of switching towards more greener and sustainable energy sources has resulted in a high demand for commodities such as lithium, cobalt, and aluminium amongst others and therefor driving the price of those up.

The Constitutional Debt Ceiling: Balancing Fiscal Discipline and Economic Imperatives

In the labyrinthine corridors of American governance, one provision stands out as a bastion of fiscal restraint: the Debt Ceiling. Etched into the fabric of the Constitution, this mechanism delineates the maximum threshold of government borrowing, compelling Congress to deliberate on the nation's financial trajectory.
