Covid-19: can both cause and solution lie in the same phenomenon?
This is just a random thought, folks! The emergence of the Covid-19 out of the blue still

Weekly Oil Price Drop: it's not that significant
Although oil price dropped this week, the fall is
not that significant, when compared with what it was last week. The drop in price, however, has rattled the markets
