"How does it feel today? Well, today feels like the world is a never-ending buffet of bad news, with headlines like "Israel's Killing of Ali Larijani Could Allow Military to Tighten Grip on Iran" and "Typical new mortgage costs soar £788 a year in two weeks" serving up a side of chaos and financial anxiety. Meanwhile, the US is trying to navigate a Strait of Hormuz crisis, and Iran is retaliating with attacks on UAE energy infrastructure. It's like trying to assemble a IKEA bookshelf using only a pair of pliers and a can of Spam."
