What does the evil eye symbol really mean?

The evil eye symbol (🧿) has been found through thousands of years of history across cultures, including in Latin America and parts of Asia . The symbol, most often depicted as four concentric circles in the shape of an eye, is used to ward off variations of evil intentions. More recently, it’s trended on the pages of fast fashion websites and manifestation TikToks. In much of the Middle East and North Africa, the symbol wards off “nazar” — a curse motivated by the envy of others that can bring about bad things in your life. It even made me hesitant to make this comic — the evil eye is always watching.

Suez Canal blockage adds to pressure points in global trade

(Maxar Technologies via AP)The plight of a mammoth container ship stuck in Egypt’s Suez Canal has highlighted still more pressure points in global trade, a year after supply chains were disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. The Panama-flagged, Japanese-owned ship has been lodged in a single-lane stretch of the canal for nearly a week, holding up $9 billion each day in global trade. The disruption from the Suez Canal blockage is less dramatic but not insignificant. The canal carries over 10% of global trade, including 7% of the world’s oil. The Suez Canal accounts for 30% of the world’s daily shipping container freight.

S&P 500 returns to a record high after best day in weeks

Stocks rose in afternoon trading on Wall Street Friday with technology companies and banks leading the way higher. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 453.40 points, or 1.4%, to 33,072.88, and both it and the S&P 500 set all-time highs.

AdSince interest rates began rising last autumn, tech stocks have been most caught within the the market's crosswinds.

EXPLAINER: Suez Canal block could hit product supply chains

This satellite image from Cnes2021, Distribution Airbus DS, shows the cargo ship MV Ever Given stuck in the Suez Canal near Suez, Egypt, Thursday, March 25, 2021.

Jim Burkhard, who heads crude oil research at IHS Markit, said the impact on the global oil market will be limited if the canal is cleared soon. Wood Mackenzie analyst Lucas Schmitt said only a few LNG shipments were near the canal when the blockage occurred.

(AP Photo/Ahn Young-joon)BANGKOK – Asian shares mostly rose on Tuesday, cheered by a rally to all-time highs on Wall Street. On Wall Street, the S&P 500 rose 0.7% to 3,368.94 after having been down 0.5% in early trading, extending its winning streak to a fifth day. Technology stocks, airlines, cruise operators and other companies that rely on consumer spending helped lift the market. The mild drop in yields has affected bank stocks, where investors have placed big bets that higher yields would translate into banks charging borrowers higher rates. The bond market has pulled tech stocks mostly lower this year, because as yields push interest rates higher, they make high-flying stocks look expensive.
