Today's Must-Reads - 09 April 2022

A selection of studies, reports and articles

I spend a lot of time each day gathering together new information and interesting articles. I then pick one or two of the most interesting topics and write about them. However, that leaves a lot of missed out information that I’m not sharing.

Below is a summary of all the latest articles and information that I’ve found today. Usually, this is for paid subscribers only but today it is a slimmed down version for everyone. Please consider taking out a paid subscription because it enables me to spend longer reporting on the news that isn’t, but should be reported.
