1. The EU wrote up some regulation....if you hand a transfer to a bank/Paypal (within Europe).....they have to complete it by the end of next business day. I'll just go and predict virtually all of them double up the pricing on transfer of money within six months.
2. Focus did a fairly decent introduction to Gov Kristi Noem....of the state of South Dakota....highly chatted now to be the possible VP of Donald Trump. First time I can recall her name being mentioned around Germany.
3. Some chatter around the Bundestag to bring minimum wage to 14 Euro. Probably won't occur this year.....but since 2025 is an election year....I'd give it a 75-percent chance of passing then.
4. Hungary approved Sweden's entry into NATO. Last point required.
5. Bavaria (the state) is looking at state laws, and likely to pursue halting cannabis sales/use (at least within Bavaria). Only state discussing this option. Positive of this? Illegal sales would still continue on in Bavaria.
6. Chancellor Scholz said 'no' on the question of providing Taurus air-launched missiles to Ukraine.....saying it'd cross a line and make Germany a more-willing participant in the war.
7. The Tesla factor in Grünheide is threatened with a halt on production....accusation is....some type of unique water pollution going on. If true? They'd have to figure out what, then devise a 'fix'....meaning a minimum of a month or two of a shut-down.
8. News opened up last night and talked of a freighter arriving in Hamburg with BYD E-cars. So the BYD gimmick is that it's made in China....is the ultra-cheap models start off around $12k, and the more attractive E-car model is around 20,000 Euro. Yeah, this up-tick is probably scaring VW and BMW a good bit. Theres supposed to be a couple of these special freighters built....so the idea is that more E-cars will be delivered.
