Friends...

On Tuesday, November 29, a gaggle of New England progressive senators dropped their silly environmentalist act and started to BEG...

They all requested an emergency meeting with Energy Secretary, Jennifer Granholm... along with New England's governors... and utility officials...

"We ask that you work with federal, regional, state and local stakeholders to identify actions available to prevent energy disruption during the coldest months of the year," the senators pleaded.

There's only one problem.

All available natural gas is on its way to Europe:

So, when large parts of New England go dark and freeze this winter, you can bet these senators and their cronies will change their tune (again) and call it a shocking natural disaster.

Or they'll say it was because Russia invaded Ukraine.

But cities don't go dark and freeze in the wealthiest country in the world by accident.

My name is Porter Stansberry. I'm the founder of one of the world's largest financial research firms.

I've spent the last two years researching this coming crisis. I've been writing about it in my newsletter, The Big Secret on Wall Street, since June...

And now that this crisis is set to unfold, exactly the way I've been predicting, I've uploaded an eye-opening video that tells the whole sordid tale. I name names in it. And I reveal who caused this crisis, and why...

Dear BoF Community,

In tech, 2022 was the year the NFT bubble burst. Prices plummeted as investors anxious about the shaky economic climate ditched their riskiest assets, with crypto at the top of the list. Still, brands including Prada and Nike maintained their web3 dreams, touting a long-term opportunity in NFTs for community building and linking physical goods to digital identities.

While the industry waits to see how these efforts will fare, it's managing other problems. With competition for digital ad space growing and online privacy measures disrupting how platforms serve ads, brands have been facing a scenario where their ads are more expensive to run and the returns harder to measure. They're also adjusting to the rise of TikTok, which is challenging Instagram as fashion's favourite social platform.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes more have leaned into technology like AI for tasks like setting prices and virtual sampling to speed the design process. Now all eyes are turning to the new crop of generative AI tools that threaten to shake up how fashion creates new products.
