'Inflation Is Killing Our Country': Trump, Biden Clash On US Economy In First Debate Of 2024 Election
==========
Former US President Donald Trump criticizes incumbent Joe Biden's administration's handling of the economy during the first debate of the 2024 election cycle. Trump claims that inflation is 'killing our country' and that Biden has done a poor job. Biden describes the American economy as being 'in freefall' and Trump touts his own economic record, stating that the US had the greatest economy in its history under his leadership. The debate focuses on the economy as a central issue. About 3 in 10 Americans consider the economy to be the most important problem facing the country, with 1 in 10 specifically mentioning the high cost of living or inflation. Trump currently holds a narrow national lead over Biden in the polls. The two rivals did not shake hands as they took their positions at podiums in a studio with no live audience. Biden faces concerns about his age, the rising cost of living, and his administration's handling of conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, while Trump deals with fallout from his conviction in a New York hush money trial, multiple federal indictments, and scrutiny over his involvement in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Blinken’s Contentious China Visit: Sino-American Impasse Remains
==========
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to China in late April 2024 aimed to achieve basic stability in ties despite mutual distrust. China sees an advantage in engaging in a dialogue with the US to reduce pressures on it. The Chinese readout of the meeting emphasized the need for China and the US to be partners rather than rivals, seek common ground, and resolve differences. The US assured China that it adhered to the one-China policy, wanted to avoid conflict, and sought stable development of US-China relations. However, the US also raised concerns about China's non-market economic policies, human rights violations, and support to Russia's defense industry. The outcome of Blinken's visit was not seen as positive, as he was not seen off by any Chinese official on departure.

Ex-NASA Scientist Lisa Kaltenegger's Explores Extraterrestrial Life In Her New Book, Alien Earths
==========
Astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger, a former NASA scientist, has written a book called Alien Earths where she suggests the possibility of alien life on exoplanets. She mentions that there are over 5000 exoplanets discovered so far, with around 70 potentially suitable for life. However, these planets are incredibly far away, making it difficult to spot aliens. The Planetary Habitability Laboratory at the University of Puerto Rico identifies 29 exoplanets similar to Earth where life could exist. One potential place for aliens is Proxima Centauri, just 4.25 light years away, where the sun never sets or rises. Another candidate exoplanet is CoRoT-7 b, located 489 light years away, which is constantly dripping hot lava. There is also a chance for life around the orange dwarf star Kepler-62, approximately 980 light years away from our solar system.

'Heinous Rights Violations': UN Experts Alarmed By Abuses Against Minority Girls in Pakistan

UN experts have condemned the 'heinous human rights violations' in Pakistan, expressing concern for the lack of protection for young women and girls from minority communities. Christian and Hindu girls are particularly vulnerable to forced religious conversion, abduction, trafficking, child, early and forced marriage, domestic servitude, and sexual violence. The experts criticized the validation of forced marriages and religious conversions by courts, often using religious law to justify keeping victims with their abductors. They stressed that child, early, and forced marriage cannot be justified on religious or cultural grounds and called for laws to ensure marriages are contracted with free and full consent, raising the minimum age for marriage to 18. The experts also highlighted specific cases of forced religious conversions and urged Pakistan to bring perpetrators to justice and enforce existing legal protections.

NASA to Develop New Clock For The Moon: Wonder How Will It Compare to Earth's Time?
==========
NASA is developing a moon-centric time reference system called Coordinated Lunar Time (LTC) to account for the moon's faster time due to less gravity. The LTC will provide a time-keeping benchmark for lunar spacecraft and satellites. An atomic clock on the moon will tick at a different rate than a clock on Earth. The White House wants NASA to come up with a preliminary idea by the end of the year and have a final plan by the end of 2026. NASA is aiming to send astronauts around the moon in September 2025 and land people there a year later.

RBI May Again Hold Policy Rate On April 5; Details Here
==========
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is expected to keep the key interest rate unchanged in April as it focuses on bringing down inflation to the 4% target. The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will take cues from the central banks of major economies like the US and UK, which are in wait-and-watch mode on interest rate cuts. The meeting of the MPC is scheduled for April 3-5, with the decision to be announced on April 5. The RBI last hiked the repo rate to 6.5% in February 2023 and has held it at the same level in its last six bi-monthly policies. Experts believe that the MPC will maintain the status quo on rate and stance this time due to inflation concerns and the possibility of future shocks on food inflation. The GDP growth for FY24 has been better than expected, and the central bank will continue focusing on targeting inflation. The earliest rate cut is likely in the October 2024 meeting unless there is a negative surprise in growth. The key issues for deliberation in the MPC meeting include strong GDP growth, moderating core inflation, global increase in crude prices, increased logistics costs, and geopolitical conflicts. The government has mandated the RBI to ensure that CPI-based inflation remains at 4% with a margin of 2% on either side. Moody's expects the RBI to keep rates on hold in the coming months due to strong growth and firm inflation.

MIT Scientists Discover Heat Behaves Like Sound Waves In A 'Rare State Of Matter' - News18
==========
Scientists from MIT have discovered that in certain states of matter, heat can behave like a sound wave, a phenomenon known as the 'second sound'. This behavior has only been observed in a few materials. The researchers used particles that repel each other and created a superfluid state of matter where atoms have no friction. They observed that heat and matter 'slosh' against each other, creating oscillations similar to sound waves. The study, led by Martin Zwierlein, a professor of Physics at MIT, helps scientists understand the nature of heat in superfluids and other related materials.

High Fiscal Deficit, CAD, Double-Digit Inflation Before 2014: Govt Compares UPA Vs NDA In White Paper On Economy
==========
The 'White Paper on the Indian Economy' compares the economic performance of the UPA government and the NDA government. The UPA government had a high fiscal deficit, a high current account deficit, a mountain of bad loans in the banking sector, and double-digit inflation for five years. The UPA government also demonstrated that it is easier to hurt the economy than it is to help it. In contrast, the NDA government under PM Modi has restored the vitality of the economy. The Modi government strategically addressed the root cause of high inflation and made efforts to control the high external sector vulnerability. The NDA government managed the current account prudently and increased forex reserves from $303 billion in March 2014 to $617 billion in January 2024. The Modi government also transformed India's fiscal system to restore public finances to good health. The UPA government failed to facilitate economic activities and exploited the fast economic growth for narrow political purposes without much concern for long-term economic consequences.

Investing Across Borders: Benefits Of International Mutual Funds In A Portfolio
==========
Investors are increasingly acknowledging the significance of diversification beyond domestic markets and the pivotal role of international mutual funds in comprehensive financial planning. International funds offer geographic diversification, reducing the impact of regional economic downturns or market volatilities. They also provide access to global growth opportunities and act as a hedge against currency risk and inflation. International portfolios offer exposure to sectors and industries that may be underrepresented in domestic markets. However, investors must consider factors such as risk tolerance, investment goals, and regulatory and economic conditions when allocating funds. International mutual funds are a powerful tool for diversifying portfolios and navigating the complexities of the international financial landscape.

India Surpasses Hong Kong, Becomes Fourth-Largest Stock Market Globally
==========
India's stock market capitalization crossed $4 trillion for the first time on Dec. 5, with about half of that coming in the past four years. The combined value of shares listed on Indian exchanges reached $4.33 trillion as of Monday’s close, versus $4.29 trillion for Hong Kong. India’s stock market has surpassed Hong Kong’s for the first time, marking another milestone for the South Asian nation. India is now the world’s fourth-largest equity market. The surge in Indian stocks is attributed to a swiftly expanding retail investor community and robust corporate earnings. China's strict anti-COVID-19 measures, regulatory actions against corporations, a crisis in the property sector, and geopolitical tensions with Western nations have collectively diminished China’s allure as the global growth engine. UBS Group AG anticipates that Chinese stocks will outshine their Indian counterparts in 2024. Bernstein anticipates a recovery in the Chinese market and advises capitalizing on profits from Indian stocks.

Finepoint | Israel & Iran Headed To War? Netanyahu’s Frame of Mind Could Explain Iran’s Pakistan Strike - News18
==========
Israel and Iran are on the brink of war, with Israel opposing Palestinian statehood and racing to debilitate Gaza and exterminate Hamas. Iran is anticipating a direct confrontation with Israel and has recently launched strikes in Iraq, Syria, and Pakistan. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed his commitment to preventing Iran from attaining nuclear weapons, while former PM Naftali Bennett has called for direct confrontation with Tehran. Iran's recent strikes in Pakistan may be a tactical demonstration of Iranian brinkmanship and a show of the regime's credibility. Pakistan, currently dominated by military leadership and inching closer to the US, may be receiving a message from Iran about the repercussions of collaborating with the US or Israel. The situation in West Asia remains uncertain and peace efforts are focused on Gaza, where Israel and Hamas are locked in a protracted war.

'Sexual Pleasure a Gift from God,' Says Pope Francis, Who Also Advises Against Porn
==========
Pope Francis declared that sexual pleasure is a gift from God but warned against the harmful impact of pornography. He emphasized the need to cherish sexual pleasure but cautioned that satisfaction without a relationship can lead to addiction. The Pope defended his decision to let priests bless same-sex couples but acknowledged the opposition it has sparked, including from Africa's bishops and bishops in Eastern Europe and Latin America. The Vatican's declaration restated traditional church teaching on marriage but allowed priests to offer non-liturgical blessings to same-sex couples. Francis acknowledged the resistance to his decision and blamed it on bishops not understanding the issue and refusing to engage in dialogue. He stated that solitude is a price to pay when making difficult decisions and that when people don't understand, they often refuse to enter into discussion and instead harden their hearts.

Boris Akunin, Russian Author of Detective Novels, Designated as 'Foreign Agent': Here's Why
==========
Russian novelist Boris Akunin has been designated as a foreign agent by the Russian justice ministry for his opposition to the country's military campaign in Ukraine. Akunin, whose real name is Grigory Chkhartishvili, is known for his longstanding criticism of President Vladimir Putin and had his detective novels banned by authorities in Russia before the war. The justice ministry accused Akunin of opposing the Ukraine military operation, disseminating false information about Russia and its army, and financially supporting the Ukrainian military. The 'foreign agent' label requires individuals to identify themselves as such on social media and in publications, and imposes financial reporting obligations. This move reflects an increasing crackdown on dissenting voices and critics of the Kremlin's policies.

Global Economy Will Slow for a Third Straight Year in 2024, World Bank Predicts
==========
The World Bank predicts that the global economy will slow for a third consecutive year in 2024, with a projected growth rate of 2.4%. This is down from 2.6% in 2023, 3% in 2022, and 6.2% in 2021. The World Bank expresses concern that deeply indebted poor countries will struggle to make necessary investments to fight climate change and poverty. The global economy has been resilient in recent years, but heightened global tensions and conflicts pose a risk to growth. The United States led global growth in 2023 with a 2.5% growth rate, higher than expected. The World Bank expects U.S. growth to slow to 1.6% in 2024 due to higher interest rates. China's economy is projected to grow 4.5% in 2024, down from 5.2% in 2023, which will impact developing countries that supply China with commodities. The eurozone is expected to see 0.7% growth in 2024, while Japan's economy is forecasted to grow 0.9%.

From Houthis to Hezbollah, A Look at Iran-allied Militant Groups in the Middle East
==========
The war in Gaza continues for the fourth month in January as missiles, rockets, and drones struck targets around the Middle East as the United States, Israel, and others clashed with Iran-allied militant groups in the region. Hezbollah announced the killing of a commander, Wissam Hassan Tawil, for the first time since October. The Israeli military said it struck Hezbollah "military sites" in Lebanon on Monday. The Israeli army also killed a "central figure" in Syria responsible for Hamas rocket attacks, naming him as Hassan Akasha. The armed groups facing the United States and Israel in the Middle East include Hamas in Gaza, powerful Hezbollah in Lebanon, smaller militias in Iraq and Syria, and Houthis in Yemen. These groups have escalated attacks on US, Israeli, or global targets within their reach since Israel launched its war in Gaza on October 7. The aim of Iran and the armed groups is to aid Hamas with attacks that distract the focus of Israel and the US and make the military, economic, and political costs of continuing the war against Hamas too great for Israel and the US. The Palestinian group Hamas is based in Gaza and was founded in 1987. Hezbollah was formed in 1982 in response to the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Houthis in Yemen have launched rockets, missiles, and drones at commercial vessels during the Gaza war. There are also several smaller Iranian-backed militant groups in Syria and Iraq that have battled with US and coalition forces for years.

The five individuals are Abdelbasit Hamza Elhassan Khair, Amer Kamal Sharif Alshawa, Ahmed Sadu Jahleb, Walid Mohammed Mustafa Jadallah, and Muhammad Ahmad ‘Abd Al-Dayim Nasrallah.

The first financier, known as Hamza, is based in Sudan and has managed numerous companies in Hamas' investment portfolio. Three of the Hamas operatives cited are part of the group's investment network in Turkey, and Nasrallah has close ties to Iranian entities. The rewards would be provided for information on any source of revenue for Hamas, major donors, financial institutions that facilitate transactions for Hamas, front companies that procure dual-use technology for the group, and criminal schemes that benefit Hamas.

Masked Aadhaar replaces the first 8 digits of the Aadhaar number with 'X', while important demographic details such as name, photograph, and QR code remain visible. The benefits of using a masked Aadhaar card include protecting privacy, preventing misuse of Aadhaar number, and being accepted by most organizations. To obtain a masked Aadhaar, visit the official website of UIDAI, enter your Aadhaar number or Virtual ID, select the 'Masked Aadhaar' option, complete the verification process, and download the password-protected PDF document. It is important to keep the masked Aadhaar document secure and not share it with unauthorized individuals.
