Strengthening Canadian space sector with MDA Space investment in Maritime Launch
MDA Space has made a $10 million equity investment in Maritime Launch Services, acquiring shares at $0.223 each. This partnership is expected to expand Canada's sovereign space launch capabilities and enhance the country's domestic space value chain from ground operations to orbit. The funds will support the development of Spaceport Nova Scotia, improving readiness for orbital launch operations The Silent Hedge: Why the Market Isn't Collapsing
For months, analysts have asked the same question: how can stocks, gold, and bitcoin all be rising together while debt and politics crumble beneath them?
The answer may be simpler - and more sobering - than anyone wants to admit. The market hasn't lost its mind; it's hedging against one.
