In a Global Storm, Markets Reward Indifference
Amid the geopolitical and economic maelstroms of 2025, diversified investors may end up remembering the first six months for something altogether less dangerous or dramatic. In the face of bloody conflicts stretching from Europe to the Middle East and Africa, a chaotic trade war and America's deepening domestic crises, the year has still managed to see the strongest stretch of synchronized market gains in years. Rather than spelling a slow-motion disaster for bulls, months of whiplash across equities, fixed income and commodities have rewarded strategic indifference while punishing overconfidence. Strategies that spread risk across assets are outperforming by near-historic margins, a shift from the concentrated bets that favored the likes of Big Tech stocks in recent years.

Tech Billionaire Reveals Plans To Leave Fortune To All 106 Of His Children
Tech Billionaire Reveals Plans To Leave Fortune To All 106 Of His Children originally appeared on Parade. Pavel Durov has 106 children — and he intends on leaving his massive fortune to all of them. The 40-year-old founder and CEO of Telegram — who has an estimated $17.1 billion fortune, according to Forbes — admitted that all 106 of his kids are set to inherit an equal chunk of his wealth in an interview with Le Point published on Thursday, June 19. 'I want to specify that I make no difference between my children: There are those who were conceived naturally and those who come from my sperm donations,' Durov told the French outlet, before he explained, 'They are all my children and will all have the same rights. I don't want them to tear each other apart after my death.' The Russian native is the 'official father' of six children whom he shares with three different partners. The other 100 biological children from 12 different countries are a result of Durov's multiple sperm bank donations over the past 15 years. He has previously stated that he plans to "open-source [his] DNA so that [his] biological children can find each other more easily." 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 According to Durov's interview, his children will not have access to their piece of the pie until '30 years' after the day following his conversation with Le Point. 'I want them to live like normal people, to build themselves up alone, to learn to trust themselves, to be able to create, not to be dependent on a bank account,' the proud father-of-106 told the publication. Durov most recently made headlines after he was arrested in France in August 2024. He was charged with enabling a number of crimes to take place on his messaging platform. The tech billionaire was set free four days after his arrest. He paid a deposit of €5 million (around $5.7 million) and was instructed not to leave the country. According to The New York Times, if convicted, the CEO faces up to 10 years in prison.
