Westinghouse pursues U.S. nuclear expansion after Trump orders, FT reports
Nuclear equipment supplier Westinghouse is in talks with U.S. officials and industry partners about deploying 10 large reactors, in response to presidential executive orders, the Financial Times reported on Sunday, citing the company's CEO. President Donald Trump's executive orders, which were published on May 23, directed the government to cut down on regulations and fast-track licences for reactors and power plants to shrink a multi-year process to 18 months. Dan Sumner, Westinghouse's interim chief executive, told the FT that the company was "uniquely positioned" to deliver the president's agenda because it had an approved reactor design, a viable supply chain, and recent experience of building two of its AP1000 reactors in Georgia. "There is active engagement with the administration, including key points of interface with the loan programs office, recognizing the importance of financing to the deployment of the model," he told the FT. Westinghouse did not immediately respond to requests for comment outside regular business hours.

Top food critic delivers verdict on the massive Stockport Pyramid curry buffet
Top food critic Jay Rayner has given his verdict on the Royal Nawaab Stockport. After writing for the Observer for 25 years, he recently moved to the Financial Times, and has dined in some of the finest restaurants in the country. And in his latest column for the broadsheet paper, published today (June 7), Rayner described his visit to Stockport's newest and flashiest curry buffet. READ MORE: Exact time the Red Arrows will fly over the North West this afternoon READ MORE: Discounts and a deserted car park - what's going on with the Trafford Centre's Premium Parking? The gargantuan restaurant and events space opened its doors to much fanfare in April of this year. The pyramid itself, formerly occupied by the Co-Op bank, underwent an enormous renovation to the tune of some £15 million, with an aesthetic Rayner describes as 'classy cruise ship'. The M.E.N's Adam Maidment visited the restaurant on its soft opening and praised the food and decor - even if the enormous scale and bustling crowd of diners was a little 'chaotic'. The space now encompasses three banqueting suites accommodating over 1,000 people and a buffet restaurant with over 400 covers that Rayner said was full when he visited - he had to rely on a local connection to get him a table. Rayner wrote that he was immediately 'clocked' as a reviewer by the restaurant, after which the staff were especially assiduous: "It was a chorus of 'Let me bring you the lamb chops' and 'You must try our nihari' and 'You need three types of naan'". He, too, raised his eyebrows at the scale of the operation which 'laughs in the face of the challenges facing hospitality', writing: "There are, on any given day, more than 100 dishes; a parade of pakoras and tikkas, birianis, masalas and the rest - a startling array. But ultimately the critic heaped warm praise on the food. Setting out his stall as no big fan of buffets, he conceded: "That meagre word doesn't do justice to the gargantuan offering here." "Perfect, bursting mouthfuls" of pani puri as a starter 'set the standard' for the evening, Rayner wrote, describing them as "delicate lentil flour globes filled with nutty chaat alongside jugs of a tamarind-based dressing". "Lamb chops, cut thin, have a decent smoky char. Deep-fried masala-marinated fish is especially good. " Then moving on from grilled items to the curries, he praised more familiar curry house favourites like the lamb nihari: "One of the great dark stews, heavy with green and black cardamom". But he also praised the variety of the dishes on offer. "What's striking is that, while there are crowd-pleasers, the kormas and tikka masalas with broad appeal, it's not all obvious," he wrote. "Lamb paya, a new dish to me, brings lamb trotters, cooked low and slow until chewy and lightly gelatinous, and served in an intensely restorative soup-like broth. "They also have haleem, an extraordinary concoction of lamb in lentils flavoured with ginger, green chillies and lemon, cooked down for so long that it has turned into a paste-like soup. "With this we have blistered Peshawari naan, the almond and pistachio filling dyed a disconcerting pink, alongside still-warm garlic and kulcha naan, crusted with sesame seeds." Rayner noted that there were some non-Asian items on offer as well, including chicken nuggets and lasagne. "But generally, the turnover of fried items is so fast they don't get a chance to go soggy." This was followed by a mouth-watering description of the desserts on offer: "deep-frying curls of cough-sweet-coloured jalebi" and "dinky globes of syrup-soaked gulab jamun, which are served still warm." Concluding by describing it "a remarkable operation", he wrote: I've sneered at the idea of buffets in the past, called them the place where good taste goes to die, and many of them are. "But the Royal Nawaab is a classy rebuttal."

Wall Street Has a New Secret Code for Laughing Behind Donald Trump's Back
Wall Street traders have adopted a term to mock President Trump's flip-flopping trade policy. TACO, an acronym that stands for 'Trump Always Chickens Out,' was coined by Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong. It has since become a favorite among stockbrokers. Simply put, the tongue-in-cheek term describes how markets dip on President Trump's tariff threats, only to rebound when he inevitably reverses course. In the latest example, markets rallied earlier this week after Trump delayed the 50 percent tariff on the European Union that he had threatened just days earlier. In response to his relenting, the S&P 500 posted its biggest gain in weeks. Speaking on MSNBC Tuesday, Australian economist Justin Wolfers mocked Trump by saying this tariff policy 'nearly lasted one entire long weekend.' 'He was a little unlucky. There was Memorial Day, extended the weekend to three days, and you couldn't have a tariff policy last a full weekend. So, Friday's policy was reversed by Monday. And so, we get to analyze it today on Tuesday. And I think that's really symptomatic,' he said. Suggesting that Trump's word is worth very little in certain circumstances, including tariff threats, Wolfers used the example of Wall Street's new favorite acronym. 'In fact, on Wall Street right now, and it's one level funny and another level tragic. There's a trade called the TACO trade, T-A-C-O, Trump Always Chickens Out,' he said. Wolfers had said Trump's word now lacks 'credibility.' 'There was a time when the president opened his mouth, when you had to pay attention because you thought it meant something, that it was a shift in policy that other countries could rely on and respond to. That's no longer the case,' he said. Salomon Fiedler, an analyst from German bank Berenberg, is just one of many speculators who now say they are happy to wait it out when Trump makes a threat. 'Wild threats by Trump are not unusual,' he wrote in a note last month, when the president 'paused' the super-charged 'Liberation Day' duties he imposed on a slew of countries. 'Given the damage the U.S. would do to itself with this tariff, he will probably not follow through.' Trump paused the duties to allow his economic buffs to secure renewed deals with dozens of nations. So far, only the United Kingdom and China have inked any sort of agreement.
