What to Watch

  1. The May 1st DHS payroll cliff; expect Radical to frame any shutdown as the 'liquidation of the state' while Moralist focuses on the threat to border sanctity.
  2. The 100-hour battery storage rollout by Meta; Sovereign will watch this as a sign of corporate secession from the public grid.
  3. The London Metropolitan Police investigation into arson; Moralist will look for Iranian state links, while Hedonist will monitor the impact on the London social season.
  4. The July 1st Medicare Wegovy bridge program; Hedonist will track it as a lifestyle victory, while Owner will watch the impact on Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk's quarterly margins.
