First TACO, now Trump Collar: Shocking new nickname of the President making waves in U.S — who coined it and why it matters
A new nickname for Donald Trump is trending on Wall Street, it's called the 'Trump Collar'. This term comes after another nickname 'TACO', short for 'Trump Always Chickens Out', became popular earlier. The person who came up with 'Trump Collar' is Charlie McElligott , a strategist at Nomura, as per reports. McElligott is known for using colorful, creative language in his financial analysis. A 'collar' in finance is a strategy that protects from big losses but also limits gains. Traders usually use this strategy when they believe something will do well in the long term but are worried about short-term risks, as per MarketWatch report. McElligott says this idea fits with how the stock market reacts to Trump; it wants to go up, but gets shaken by Trump's random social media posts, especially on Truth Social. Basically, the 'Trump Collar' describes how Trump's actions and posts make the market nervous, even if the overall economy looks okay.

Age-reversing CEO Bryan Johnson flags health risks while reacting to Indian coder's 4 am post: ‘This is not heroic'
A post by Indian web developer Priyanshu Tiwari recently went viral, sparking a global discussion about work habits, health, and hustle culture. He shared a photo of himself and his teammates coding in the office at 4 am with the caption, 'It is 4 am, guys, but builders are building. What's your excuse?' Many praised the dedication, saying it showed commitment and passion. But not everyone agreed. 'This is not heroic', Bryan Johnson reacts American entrepreneur and anti-ageing advocate Bryan Johnson responded to the post, calling such habits 'terrible for health.' He warned that this kind of work culture should not be seen as something admirable. Johnson also pointed out the health problems that come with long hours at a desk, like poor posture, reduced brain oxygen, disturbed sleep, and more. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Fungo nas unhas: um truque simples reduz facilmente Acabe com o Fungo Undo His honest take received mixed reactions. Some people praised him for speaking up against the pressure-filled work environment common in tech firms and start-ups. One user commented, 'Bryan is spot on. This kind of schedule is not sustainable.' But others criticised him, saying it's easy to give health advice when you're already rich. One user wrote, 'Easy to give this advice from your villa in Venice when you've already made millions.' Live Events Johnson replied calmly, 'Even small improvements in sleep posture and circadian rhythm can enhance performance and longevity. It's not either-or.' Health warning from WHO A 2021 report by the World Health Organization (WHO) found that long working hours led to 745,000 deaths worldwide, mainly from heart disease and stroke. The study said working 55+ hours a week increases the risk of stroke by 35% and heart disease by 17%, compared to working 35–40 hours a week. Today, around 9% of the global population works long hours, putting more people at risk of serious health problems and early death. Why this matters This online exchange highlights a serious concern in today's tech industry: the pressure to work long hours, chase deadlines, and celebrate burnout. While Priyanshu's post was meant to motivate, it also reflects a growing problem, working too hard at the cost of your health. Who is Bryan Johnson? Bryan Johnson is a well-known figure in the biohacking world. At 47, he spends millions each year trying to slow down ageing. His programme, called Blueprint, includes over 100 daily supplements, carefully tracked sleep, and data-based exercise routines. Priyanshu's post shows the passion of a generation eager to succeed, but Bryan Johnson's response reminds us to ask: at what cost? Success is important, but so is health. Long-term performance comes not from all-nighters, but from balanced routines, enough rest, and caring for your body. Burnout shouldn't be a badge of honour, it should be a warning sign.

Developing nations face 'tidal wave' of China debt: Report
Representative Image (AI-generated) The world's poorest nations face a "tidal wave of debt" as repayments to China hit record highs in 2025, an Australian think tank warned Tuesday in a new report. China's Belt and Road Initiative lending spree of the 2010s has paid for shipping ports, railways, roads and more from the deserts of Africa to the tropical South Pacific. But new lending is drying up, according to Australia's Lowy Institute, and is now outweighed by the debts that developing countries must pay back. "Developing countries are grappling with a tidal wave of debt repayments and interest costs to China," researcher Riley Duke said. "Now, and for the rest of this decade, China will be more debt collector than banker to the developing world." The Lowy Institute sifted through World Bank data to calculate developing nations' repayment obligations. It found that the poorest 75 countries were set to make "record high debt repayments" to China in 2025 of a combined US $22 billion. "As a result, China's net lending position has shifted rapidly," Duke said. "Moving from being a net provider of financing -- where it lent more than it received in repayments -- to a net drain, with repayments now exceeding loan disbursements." Paying off debts was starting to jeopardise spending on hospitals, schools, and climate change, the Lowy report found. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Fungo nas unhas: veja o novo método que elimina rapidamente Acabe com os Fungo Undo "Pressure from Chinese state lending, along with surging repayments to a range of international private creditors, is putting enormous financial strain on developing economies." The report also raised questions about whether China could seek to parlay these debts for "geopolitical leverage", especially after the United States slashed foreign aid. While Chinese lending was falling almost across the board, the report said there were two areas that seemed to be bucking the trend. The first was in nations such as Honduras and Solomon Islands, which received massive new loans after switching diplomatic recognition from Taiwan to China. The other was in countries such as Indonesia or Brazil, where China has signed new loan deals to secure battery metals or other critical minerals.
