  • 2021 Year Ahead
    2021 YEAR AHEAD Claudio Brocado Anthony Brocado January 29, 2021 1 2020 turned out to be quite unusual. What may the year ahead and beyond bring? As the year got started, the consensus was that a strong 2019 for equities would be followed by a positive first half, after which meaningful volatility would kick in due to the US presidential election. In the spirit of our prefer- ence for a contrarian stance, we had expected somewhat the opposite: some profit-taking in the first half of 2020, followed by a rally that would result in a positive balance at year-end. But in the way of the markets – which always tend to catch the largest number of participants off guard – we had what some would argue was one of the strangest years in recent memory. 2 2020 turned out to be a very eventful year. The global virus crisis (GVC) brought about by the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic was something no serious market observer had anticipated as 2020 got started. Volatility had been all but nonexistent early in what we call ‘the new 20s’, which had led us to expect the few remaining volatile asset classes, such as cryptocurrencies, to benefit from the search for more extreme price swings. We had expected volatilities across asset classes to show some convergence. The markets delivered, but not in the direction we had expected. Volatilities surged higher across many assets, with the CBOE volatility index (VIX) reaching some of the highest readings in many years. As it became clear that what was commonly called the novel coronavirus would bring about a pandemic as it spread to the remotest corners of the world at record speeds, the markets feared the worst.

  • DSA's Options and the Socialist International DSA Internationalism
    DSA’s Options and the Socialist International DSA Internationalism Committee April 2017 At the last national convention DSA committed itself to holding an organizational discussion on its relationship to the Socialist International leading up to the 2017 convention. The structure of this mandatory discussion was left to DSA’s internationalism committee. The following sheet contains information on the Socialist International, DSA’s involvement with it, the options facing DSA, and arguments in favor of downgrading to observer status and withdrawing completely. A. History of the Socialist International and DSA The Socialist International (SI) has its political and intellectual origins in the nineteenth century socialist movement. Its predecessors were the First International (1864-1876), of ​ ​ which Karl Marx was a leader, and the Second International (1889-1916). In the period of ​ the Second International, the great socialist parties of Europe (particularly the British Labour Party, German Social Democratic Party, and the French Section of the Workers International) formed and became major electoral forces in their countries, advancing ideologies heavily influenced by Marx and political programs calling for the abolition of capitalism and the creation of new systems of worker democracy. The Second International collapsed when nearly all of its member parties, breaking their promise not to go to war against other working people, rallied to their respective governments in the First World War. The Socialist Party of America (SPA)—DSA’s predecessor—was one of the very few member parties to oppose the war. Many of the factions that opposed the war and supported the Bolshevik Revolution came together to form the Communist International in 1919, which over the course of the 1920s became dominated by Moscow and by the 1930s had become a tool of Soviet foreign policy and a purveyor of Stalinist orthodoxy.

  • Urgent Call for Action: Making Use of the Conference on the Future of Europe for Reforming Or Abolishing the EURATOM Treaty
    Urgent call for action: Making use of the Conference on the Future of Europe for reforming or abolishing the EURATOM Treaty Brussels, 6 October 2020 Dear Mrs. President of the EU Commission von der Leyen, Dear Mr. President of the European Council Michel, In your application speech for your current position held on 16 July 2019, you have passionately advocated a united, fair and equal Europe that is developing strong and ambitious solutions to the climate crisis. We welcome the commitment and energy you are putting into the implementation of the Green Deal. In order to achieve a carbon-neutral European Union until 2050 with a clean, resource efficient and competitive economy, you are focusing on fair and inclusive transitions for everyone. One of the main European Treaties, the EURATOM-Treaty, diametrically opposes your efforts. On 25 March 1957, the treaty for establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) was signed in Rome - at the same time as the treaty establishing the European Economic Community (EEC). The "Roman Treaties" are the foundation of today's European Union. While the EEC-Treaty has been reformed several times (EEC - EC - TFEU-Treaty), the EURATOM-Treaty has remained unchanged since 1957. Its main aim is the development of a powerful European nuclear industry. Nuclear energy "represents an essential resource for the development and invigoration of industry and will permit the advancement of the cause of peace" - up to this day. This also applies to 14 member states that have never operated nuclear power plants or that have decided to phase out nuclear energy as well as to those that reject the technology constitutionally.

  • Question for Written Answer
    Question for written answer E-001742/2021 to the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Rule 138 Brando Benifei (S&D), Patrizia Toia (S&D), Giuliano Pisapia (S&D), Bettina Vollath (S&D), Margarida Marques (S&D), Evelyn Regner (S&D), Andreas Schieder (S&D), Domènec Ruiz Devesa (S&D), Milan Brglez (S&D), Pierfrancesco Majorino (S&D), Petar Vitanov (S&D) Subject: The detention of Ahmed Samir Abdelhay Ali in Egypt Ahmed Samir Abdelhay Ali, a student at the Central European University in Austria, has been arbitrarily detained in Cairo, Egypt by the Egyptian Security Forces since 1 February 2021, after he returned to Egypt to spend the holidays with his family. Mr Samir, a researcher into the history of family planning in Egypt and an advocate of safe and legal access to healthcare and women’s reproductive rights, has been charged by the Supreme State Security Prosecution with joining and funding a terrorist organisation and deliberately spreading false news. Mr Samir is currently being held in solitary confinement and is being denied contact with his family and lawyers, access to warm clothing and acceptable living conditions. He has testified to being a victim of torture and inhuman and degrading treatment by national security forces. His case is reminiscent of those of Patrick George Zaki, Walid al-Shobaki and Giulio Regeni. 1. Is the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy aware of this latest worrying case? 2. Will he raise this issue with the Egyptian authorities as a matter of urgency and call for Mr Samir’s immediate release and for the withdrawal of all charges against him? PE691.730v01-00.
