Nacho Montes de Oca wrote that Tesla and SpaceX stocks fell after a measure against Ukraine was announced, despite the success that, according to him, Elon Musk's flying car presentation had. He suggested that the declines could also be due to other events. According to Montes de Oca, the Italian government halted negotiations to contract Starlink services for $1.63 billion, amidst the controversy over the reliability of the service and repeated threats and incidents of signal cuts in Ukraine. He also noted that Germany had accelerated the development of its own constellation of sovereign military satellites. He added that Valérie Hayer, president of Renew Europe, and Andrius Kubilius, EU defense commissioner, had advocated for the urgent need for a European alternative to Starlink. The author stated that Democratic and Republican senators had sent a letter to the Defense Department's inspector general demanding an urgent investigation into the restrictions imposed on the network. He said this could affect SpaceX's contracts with the U.S. government, which he estimated at $29.68 billion. Of that total, he indicated, $8.05 billion corresponded to new military contracts awarded and based on Starshield, the company's military division. Montes de Oca maintained that Musk's accusations against Donald Trump and Trump's response— where he denied being responsible and also said he didn't believe Musk was responsible— had harmed the conglomerate's reputation. He attributed the drop in SpaceX's stocks to a loss of $28.6 billion for Musk. He also estimated that Tesla's decline between October 13 and 16, 2026, had reduced its market capitalization by between $35 billion and $38 billion. To those losses, he added the revenues that, in his opinion, could cease to be obtained from the Italian contract and agreements with other countries interested in the system. Finally, he noted that it remained to be seen whether Musk would maintain a strategy that, as he wrote, imitated Trump's aggressive stance towards Ukraine and Volodymyr Zelensky, or if investor pressure would lead him to change his decision. He also stated that support for Vladimir Putin had a high and self-destructive cost. #Tesla #SpaceX #Ucrania (translated)

It doesn't end until it ends... but it never ends. Since ancient times, war, hunger, and plague have haunted humanity. "None of these three biblical evils have been resolved and it is possible that in the 22nd century they will continue as things are going," lamented the head of the Infectious Diseases Service at the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital in Seville at the beginning of the meeting with journalists and colleagues, during which he also cited the phrase of the infectious disease expert and adviser —"to his dismay"— of US President Donald Trump during the covid pandemic, Anthony Fauci: "It doesn’t end until it ends... but it never ends." #Infecciones #SaludGlobal #Pandemias (translated)

Nacho Montes de Oca claimed that Europe rejected the proposal from Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff to place up to $300 billion in frozen Russian assets into a financial vehicle managed by the White House. He wrote that the Trump Administration's plan would allocate part of the funds for the reconstruction of Ukraine and another part for joint investments from Russian and American companies, under the supervision of the U.S. Treasury and a special body designated by Trump. Montes de Oca pointed out that the European response combined indignation and astonishment. He added that the European Union was holding back between 70% and 80% of the funds—about €210 billion—while the United States controlled between 1% and 2%, equivalent to about $5 billion. According to the author, the rest was distributed among banks in Japan, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Canada. #Europa #Ucrania #Trump (translated)
