反对派候选人被捕，土耳其陷入危机
3月19日星期三，一轮针对反对派人士的大规模逮捕把土耳其人从梦中惊醒。约有一百名政治家、记者和学者被捕入狱，其中就包括了伊斯坦布尔市长埃克雷姆·伊玛莫鲁（Ekrem İmamoğlu）。伊玛莫鲁是土耳其总统埃尔多安（Erdoğan）最大的竞争对手，并曾计划参加即将举行的总统选举。
尽管共和人民党还在呼吁继续举行集会，但他们显然没有准备好将抗议活动升级为推翻政权的群众运动。这与该党领导层的阶级特性有关。他们都是些资产阶级政客。他们的整个观念只会把他们引向狭隘的法律、符号和机构上的争论。但这统统不会对埃尔多安构成真正的威胁。如果运动被限制在例行集会和象征性投票的范围内，失败几乎是必然的。

Since the violent storming of Capitol Hill and subsequent ban of former U.S. President Donald Trump from Facebook and Twitter, the removal of Parler from Amazon’s servers, and the de-platforming of incendiary right-wing content, messaging services Telegram and Signal have seen a deluge of new users. In January alone, Telegram reported 90 million new accounts. Its founder, Pavel Durov, described this as “the largest digital migration in human history.” Signal reportedly doubled its user base to 40 million people and became the most downloaded app in 70 countries. The two services rely on encryption to protect the privacy of user communication, which has made them popular with protesters seeking to conceal their identities against repressive governments in places like Belarus, Hong Kong, and Iran. But the same encryption technology has also made them a favored communication tool for criminals and terrorist groups, including al Qaeda and the Islamic State.
At a time when the Indian stock market is peaking and has rallied immensely compared to global markets, there are companies that have not performed in the last 10 years. These are definitely a minor portion of the market considering there are hundreds of stocks that have turned multibagger since 2020. What went wrong with these stocks? Reasons vary from corporate governance, sectoral weakness, company specific and so on. But the more important question is, are these stocks worth buying?
