4. Term Of The Day 📚
Cash Is King
📖Definition: This phrase emphasizes the value of maintaining liquidity—preferable for both investors and businesses to hold cash rather than committing to long-term assets
📊Why it matters: Holding cash provides flexibility and resilience, enabling quick decisions, handling downturns, or seizing opportunities. In contrast, locking up capital in illiquid assets can limit agility
💡Example: Tech giants like Apple and Amazon carry enormous cash reserves—providing them with significant leverage to invest, acquire, and adapt without financial strain
5. Song Of The Day 🎧
🎧Song: “Everyday Scream” by Florence + the Machine
Genre: Pop / Art Pop
Why it hits: This track—released just yesterday—combines Florence’s signature ethereal vocals with bold, art-pop production, marking a dynamic return and setting a stirring tone in anticipation of the full album
