The Italian capital suffers from bad weather. The strongest thunderstorm with heavy rain, hail and even sleet paralyzed the city and its environs. Hundreds of cars went under the water; cultural monuments of Rome were hurt. You will find the consequences of abnormal weather in our photo gallery.

On the night of October 22, the thunderstorm with showers and hail began. Due to bad weather, six subway stations and several underground passages were closed, routes of some buses were changed, car traffic was partially blocked. The work of the subway was restored by Monday morning.

Several drivers were blocked in their cars in the flooded streets.

The sights of Rome went under the water too. The water level in the Basilica of Saint Sebastian rose almost half a meter.

Mayor of Rome Virginia Raji apologized to residents of the capital for “inconvenience” brought by the weather. In her Facebook, she said that the storm had caused severe flooding in the east of the country and knocked trees down in the southern part of the city.

By evening, a cold weather came to the city: the air temperature fell by more than 10 degrees, it started snowing and there was a hail which caused ice jams on the streets.

Such cataclysms of nature came as a surprise to the Italians, because a couple of days ago, the city had a true summer weather, and the air temperature reached 30 degrees. Meteorologists explain this abrupt change in climate by the difference in temperature between the warm Mediterranean and cold air flows from northern Europe. It is expected that bad weather will soon reach the south of the country, and the cooling will spread throughout Italy.

While the shocked citizens publish photos and videos of the consequences of bad weather in social networks, all the services of the city, from firefighters and policemen to civil defense officers, are struggling with its consequences.
This year, the bad weather now and then overtakes the Italian capital. In February 2018, snow fell in Rome for the first time in 6 years.

According to a survey among economists, the global economy growth outlook for the next year has dimmed for the first time. Analysts believe that the reason for this is the protracted trade war between the United States and China, as well as the tightening of financial conditions.

At the beginning of this year, most economists, by contrast, remained optimistic about the global economy. However, the outlook was changed in October 2018. Reuters conducted a survey among more than 500 economists. The results showed that the growth forecast for 18 of 44 economies was revised down. At the same time, the forecast for 23 economies remained unchanged, while the forecast for only 3 economies was improved. Significant changes in growth forecasts followed a grand sell-off in financial markets, mainly in emerging markets. Most economists say the main reason for the slowdown in global economic growth is the escalation of the US-China trade disputes, as well as the tightening of financial conditions associated with the sell-off on global stock markets.

In the outgoing year, the growth of the global economy was unchanged, remaining at the level of 3.8%. As for the consensus forecast for 2019, experts predict growth of only 3.6%. This figure does not match the latest forecast of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which expects global growth at 3.7% in 2019.

The richest people buy yachts and new homes in the most amazing places on the planet, but they don't become poorer. If you do not make the simplest financial mistakes, you can also achieve your goals and desires, while increasing revenues. In our review, you will find 5 mistakes that rich people do not make.

Some billionaires have extravagant habits, others spend huge amounts of money on charity. But there are similar rules followed by the most successful people on the planet in order to protect and increase their savings. You can start using them, even if your name is not yet included in the Forbes ratings, and see what kind of result it will bring.

Do not spend all that earned
Most people spend all their money on mandatory payments and entertainment, and only then save the remaining money (or not). Successful people, first of all, repay all obligatory payments, then save the necessary amount to achieve their goals, and only then think about entertainment (or not).
Investing in the future allows you to consistently achieve your financial priorities. It may be necessary to limit yourself or not to open new debts on credit cards without urgent need. It is best to simply start making savings and keep them on a special savings account to make sure that this method is effective.

Do not miss the opportunity to increase wealth
Successful people do not stop developing having received a high profit or a highly paid position in a large corporation. Businessmen are constantly looking for ways to improve their financial situation. They continue to seek salary increases and promotions, open a business and find additional sources of income. At the same time, income growth does not lead to a proportional increase in expenses.
In addition, rich people often invest in financial markets. Taking into account the risks of losing money from a failed investment due to temporary shocks, in the long run they always remain in profit.

Do not make emotional financial decisions
Financially successful people always make decisions based on long-term goals and strategies avoiding rash actions based on emotions and intuition.
Rich people first create a development plan, and then simply follow it not taking into account emotions, gossip, advice from incompetent people, or information from unverified sources.
It is difficult to drop emotions when it comes to money, so you can develop special habits that protect you from thoughtless actions; for example, wait 24 hours before making a serious financial decision. It is best to develop your own set of rules (personal financial strategy) that will determine all future actions.

Do not put all your eggs in one basket
The richest people are well aware of the need to diversify and how the various sources of income complement each other. Instead of buying shares of one company or investing money only in real estate, millionaires always consider several areas for investment in a single portfolio.
A properly composed investment portfolio includes assets that grow in different periods of time and are focused on the long-term perspective, and they do not always have a high annual yield.

Listen to expert advice
Successful people will not risk their savings unnecessarily. If they are not sure about the security of a financial project, they always turn to competent advisors for help. Most often, wealthy people have several trusted advisors who develop financial plans and are engaged in tax, investment, and income redistribution.
For ordinary people, before making an important financial decision, it is better to consult with friends who have had the similar experience, read the recommendations of specialists or use paid services of financial and legal assistance.

China’s economy is losing momentum against the backdrop of the trade protectionism of the US. The second largest global economy finds it more difficult to ensure robust economic growth amid the full-blown trade war. China’s GDP slowed down to the weakest pace since Q1 of 2009 when the world financial crisis was in full swing. The National Bureau of Statistics reported that GDP growth eased to 6.5% in annual terms in Q3 of 2018. Apart from domestic economic headwinds, the battle of import tariffs is mainly to blame for the economic decline. Besides, for several years in a row China’s financial watchdog has been taking measures to tackle debt risks. Experts say that such a policy also dents economic growth.

Notably, the actual GDP reading undershot expectations for a 6.6% increase, according to the median forecast by Reuters. Nevertheless, despite a slowdown, China remains the biggest holder of the US debt. This was confirmed by the US Treasury Department in a report for August. Interestingly, Russia is reducing its holdings in the US Treasury bonds. Recently, the Bank of Russia sold off US bonds worth $810 million. But it has not boosted economic growth in Russia. Its GDP is still unable to pick up steam.

The US President’s baseless ideas of the American economy’s super power may lead to the unfortunate results, experts of the major bank JPMorgan Chase believe. Bank specialists have foreseen the probability of such an outcome while working on a long-term outlook for the US economy. JPMorgan Chase analysts changed the previous estimate of the American economy’s development in their recent report and factored in the possibility of a kind of "miscalculation" by the President of the United States. Trump might make a mistake and take the wrong decision due to excessive self-confidence, experts of the financial holding think.

Furthermore, the experts took into account the increasing potential of the ongoing US-China trade war which has affected all Chinese imports. According to JPMorgan Chase, this may lead to the Chinese economy’s growth weakening and have a negative impact on the global commodity trading in 2019. The bank revised its estimate for the growth in earnings per share of the S&P 500 companies. The index dropped from the current 10% to 5% in 2019. Analysts also adjusted the oil price outlook by assuming Brent crude to rise up to $90 per barrel due to the upcoming introduction of the US sanctions against Iran, scheduled for November 2018.

According to another report, published by JPMorgan Chase this month, a new financial crisis may break out in 2020 but it will be less devastating than the crisis of 2008. Crashes on stock markets during the next crisis should not be so large-scale, as the assets value in developing countries has declined significantly, JPMorgan Chase emphasized.

Despite the fact that gold is a generally accepted measure of expensiveness, there are many substances and materials in the world, the cost of which is several times higher than the cost of precious yellow metal. In our photo gallery, you will learn about the most expensive materials on the planet Earth.

Despite the well-known saying “worth its weight in gold,” this material is not the most expensive in the world. There are many substances, which value exceeds the price of gold many times: there's not enough time in one life to earn 1 gram of the most affordable of them. In our article, we present the top five of the most expensive substances.

Taaffeite ($20,000 per gram)
This mineral is found in nature in several colors: from gray-violet to lilac, gemologists also found colorless specimens. This gem is extremely rare, it is found a million times less than diamonds. The stone was first discovered 70 years ago. Among its physical features, we can highlight the fact that taaffeite has double refraction. And a few owners of this unique stone argue that it has a powerful positive and healing effect on the body.

Tritium ($30,000 per gram)
Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. This super heavy hydrogen is formed in the upper atmosphere by the collision of particles of cosmic radiation with the nuclei of nitrogen atoms. Tritium was discovered in 1934 and since then it has been actively used in science and industry, as well as in thermonuclear energy and geology. In addition, tritium is used in the illumination sources for watches.

Diamond ($55,000 per gram)
Polished diamonds rank third in the world in their value among the most expensive substances. Specific conditions are necessary for the formation of a gemstone; therefore, it can be found both in the lithosphere and on meteorites falling on the surface of the Earth.
At its core, it is a rough diamond that is artificially polished to give it a special shape that maximally conveys its natural brilliance. The mass of diamonds is measured in carats: one carat is equal to 0.2 grams.

Californium ($27 million per gram)
Californium is an element of the seventh period of the Mendeleev's periodic table. It is used to run nuclear reactors, as well as in creating metal detectors. In addition, the substance is also used as a powerful source of neutrons in neutron activation analysis and in radiation therapy of tumors. However, with its ultra-high cost, Californium loses to cheaper metals.
This element was obtained artificially in 1950 at the University of California at Berkeley, in honor of which it received its name. To create it, plutonium or curium is subjected to prolonged neutron irradiation in a nuclear reactor for 8 and 1.5 years, respectively. Then Californium is chemically emitted from the resulting products.

Antimatter ($62.5 trillion per gram)
Antimatter is the most expensive material in the world. However, as pointed out by NASA, the cost of antimatter production is decreasing every year. In 1999, the cost of 1 gram of antimatter was estimated at approximately $62.5 trillion; in 2017, thanks to improvements in technology, the cost of antimatter dropped to $10 trillion.
The value of a substance is influenced by several factors: the complexity of the production and storage of antimatter. For example, for the extraction of 1 gram of antimatter, the whole Earth must work continuously for 1 year. And extremely complex devices are necessary for the storage of antimatter since the combination of matter and antimatter results in the mutual destruction of both substances.

They are hardworking, persistent in achieving the goal and in the process of work they are able to establish contacts with almost any team. The result is the invaluable experience that can be learned from our material.

Businessmen are ready to share their exclusive knowledge and experience with everyone who wants to understand the world of entrepreneurship and finance.

Be a good listener

According to experts, the ability to listen and hear the interlocutor is one of the main components of success. It is especially important to distinguish the subtext and catch the hidden meaning of what was said, experts are sure.

80/20 principle

This algorithm is called the Pareto principle. It consists in the following: 80% of efforts give 20% of the result (i.e. most of the efforts do not give the desired results). Focus on those 20% of the efforts that give maximum return!

Strive to gain the trust of others

According to analysts, the ability to cause good feelings among others is a special art. In the absence of this skill, you must learn how to do it. The others' liking will help to gain credibility and achieve the desired.

Aim for leadership

Experts recommend to develop self-confidence, not to retreat from difficulties and not be afraid of failure. It will surely be followed by a boom, experienced market players emphasize. “The main task is to motivate and inspire your team to accomplish goals. The rest will get your confidence sooner or later,” experts say.

Do not be afraid of changes

Experienced market participants call not to be afraid of sudden changes, but to turn the situation in your favor. "It is changes that open up new opportunities for us," analysts emphasize.

Know your weaknesses

The ability to use your weak side as a strong one for the benefit of a common cause is a very important skill of a trader. The real inner strength of a person consists in the ability to correctly apply their imperfect qualities making them positive aspects of the personality.

Trust your team

You have to trust your business partners for the successful implementation of ambitious plans. In this regard, at the initial stage of the selection of a team, it is necessary to analyze what people are most suitable for business. It is impossible to create a strong team and work productively without honesty and trust, experts emphasize.

Do your job, regardless of the circumstances

Experienced market players urge not to give up a favorite and profitable business, even in case of serious difficulties. “If in doubt, just work on,” analysts recommend. They propose to remain focused in all circumstances and finish what you started “Learn to set clear goals, plan your time, and everything will work out,” experts sum up.

Habits, addictions and inclinations of the mind can either ruin us or contribute into our future financial well-being. Seemingly insignificant habits affect career, health, development, and overall happiness. In our review, you will find a few simple secrets that will help you successfully learn and earn more.

We have been told since childhood that we need to fight bad habits, but few say that it is also necessary to develop new useful ones. One of their main advantages is that they do not require serious motivation or inflexible willpower, the main thing is to remind yourself of them in time to get closer to your cherished goals and dreams. Let's consider seven easy ways to get better.

1. Listen to specialized audiobooks or podcasts for 15 minutes every day. This can be done during a break for a cup of tea or coffee, instead of unnecessary chatter, or on the way to work: on the subway, car, public transport or on foot.
Choose the area of knowledge that you have always wanted to study or in which you want to improve, and find relevant specialized audio materials (not fiction). For example, listen about e-commerce, webinars, customer care technologies, or listen to podcasts of a successful person who works in a field of interest to you.
You should not spend too much time on this. Adhere to the rule of listening to cognitive materials daily for 15 to 30 minutes, find an opportunity to write it in your work schedule, because you never know in advance what information you may need in this or that situation.

2. Read one printed page of a book a day to train your mind (you can read more). Studies have found that the constant habit of fast reading of e-texts contributes to disperse attention and may lead to a decrease in speed and ability to assimilate information by 20-30%.
In addition, paper books provide aesthetic and sensory pleasure which contributes to the quality relaxation necessary for further productive work.
You can read before bedtime, instead of (or after) watching TV, movies or TV shows. The smell and rustle of paper will give signals to the brain that it's time to relax, and if you get carried away with an interesting book, it will help develop your imagination, one of the main tools for overcoming difficult life situations. Read what you like.

3. Go to bed 30 minutes earlier to stay healthy, the main and often irreplaceable resource for a happy life. Ideally, you should go to bed at 10 pm; however, if you feel like an owl, just try to go to bed a little earlier than usual.
A healthy body creates prerequisites for proper and successful thinking. Pay attention to nutrition and exercise, especially if you have a hard time falling asleep.
Often great ideas come to mind at night, but it is useful to teach yourself to go to bed and get up early to bring them to life!

4. When buying new items, choose quality, not quantity. It is better to buy fewer things, but those that you will truly enjoy. In addition, you shouldn't fill your house with unnecessary trash.
You can buy a bag of clothes, shoes, and jewelry, especially during sales and "super discounts", but are they really necessary? Do not deny yourself a pleasant shopping, but if you have things at home that you don't use at all, or things you don't wear, maybe you never really needed them?
Also, get rid of old things when you buy new ones. It does not matter what it is: clothing, appliances or kitchen utensils. You can make someone a nice gift, and at the same time make room for something valuable. This simple habit can radically change your mindset and teach you to choose exactly what you need.

5. Think twice before buying something. If you are going to spend any significant amount for you ($100, $ 1,000 or $ 10,000), wait at least 24 hours.
This habit will help you avoid unnecessary purchases caused by emotional impulse (whim), and not a real need. In the morning the next day, you will most likely know for sure if you need this half-meter teddy bear. It's amazing how many unnecessary things will not appear in your life.
In addition, you can calculate how much money you make per hour (for example, $20). And when you think about this or that purchase, assess how much time in your life you are ready to spend on it.

6. Automate your savings. Automation of savings and investments is a convenient habit that will allow you to save money on planned goals without effort.
Get savings (target) accounts to which you will transfer a certain amount of your earnings (for example, 10%) and any other unplanned income.
Often, banks also award interest on target accounts, and upon reaching the intended amount, think about where you can effectively invest money. Remember the simple rule: money goes to money.

7. Say no to negative. A very useful habit is to calmly and firmly say “no” to unpleasant people, dubious business proposals, everything that does not correspond to your personal perception of the world and does not lead to the achievement of goals.
A person is a social being, people from your environment have a great influence on your life path, they form a space of opportunities for future growth.
Therefore, do not allow anyone to poison you with negative influence, avoid bad companies and wasted time. Achieving your goals, focus on the important things, discard all unnecessary stuff, carefully save anything useful, cultivate the habit of success and happiness in yourself.

Habits, addictions and inclinations of the mind can either ruin us or contribute into our future financial well-being. Seemingly insignificant habits affect career, health, development, and overall happiness. In our review, you will find a few simple secrets that will help you successfully learn and earn more.

We have been told since childhood that we need to fight bad habits, but few say that it is also necessary to develop new useful ones. One of their main advantages is that they do not require serious motivation or inflexible willpower, the main thing is to remind yourself of them in time to get closer to your cherished goals and dreams. Let's consider seven easy ways to get better.

1. Listen to specialized audiobooks or podcasts for 15 minutes every day. This can be done during a break for a cup of tea or coffee, instead of unnecessary chatter, or on the way to work: on the subway, car, public transport or on foot.
Choose the area of knowledge that you have always wanted to study or in which you want to improve, and find relevant specialized audio materials (not fiction). For example, listen about e-commerce, webinars, customer care technologies, or listen to podcasts of a successful person who works in a field of interest to you.
You should not spend too much time on this. Adhere to the rule of listening to cognitive materials daily for 15 to 30 minutes, find an opportunity to write it in your work schedule, because you never know in advance what information you may need in this or that situation.

2. Read one printed page of a book a day to train your mind (you can read more). Studies have found that the constant habit of fast reading of e-texts contributes to disperse attention and may lead to a decrease in speed and ability to assimilate information by 20-30%.
In addition, paper books provide aesthetic and sensory pleasure which contributes to the quality relaxation necessary for further productive work.
You can read before bedtime, instead of (or after) watching TV, movies or TV shows. The smell and rustle of paper will give signals to the brain that it's time to relax, and if you get carried away with an interesting book, it will help develop your imagination, one of the main tools for overcoming difficult life situations. Read what you like.

The yuan’s value went down while greenback grew as investors reacted to the PBOC’s easing of the monetary policy.

The central bank announced on Sunday that the required reserve ratio (RRR) for some cash lenders had been reduced by 1%.

According to the central bank’s website this resolution will come into effect on October 15. This reserve ratio cut should release 1.2 trillion yuan, whereof 450 billion yuan is to repay existing medium-term financial liabilities.

“We are not surprised to see the RRR cut given mounting economic growth pressure, sizable seasonal liquidity demand, and weak investor sentiments,” Jerry Peng, a strategist at Citigroup in Hong Kong, said.

“We reckon the authorities will step up intervention to support RMB in view of the RRR cut. Overall, we believe the RRR cut should be regarded as a positive move.”
