Economic Uncertainty Delays the Revival of Investment Banking

Investment banking was expected to make a strong comeback in early 2025. But instead, economic uncertainty and global market volatility slowed things down.

Russian Scientists Use X-Rays to Design Flexible Phone Batteries

Smartphones have come a long way. Today, we have foldable phones and even screens that roll up. But one big problem still remains, the battery. No matter how advanced the phone is, the battery inside is still stiff and solid, making it hard to build phones that can truly bend in every part. Now Russian scientists may have found a solution, and it’s all thanks to X-rays. Most parts of a phone can now be made flexible. Screens can bend, and even the tiny circuit boards inside can be made to twist. But the battery has always been a problem.…
