Market Analysis:

This week, the Dalium gained some strengthen, boosting confidence after the post war chaos. Stocks rose in response, DSE reports, with an average climb of 2.3. Power plants have lowered the EU's value has dropped slightly, a welcome sight for increased production, from 6.7 to 5.9. This drop, analysts say, is a good forecast for the future.

 

--------------------------------------------------

 

OOC: The EU is an Energy Unit. Deltannia has both a currency and the EU, which is used in its Energism philosophy. This is a way that instead of costs in money, there is a cost in energy to produce something. It's a little complicated, I know, but that's how it works. The EU and Dalium are not always equal, they can be exchanged at certain rates like foreign currency. The base value of the EU is 1. Often, workers receive EUs instead, which is a more direct way of paying for something, especially things like lighting and heat. With this, power plants have become a second form of bank.

***Komzestan: Battle of Tikrit***

 

After several days of fighting, Deltannian troops captured the city of Tikrit today. After initial frontline defenses were removed, forces were easily able to enter the city. Casualties are estimated to be in the hundreds, but the Fascists have lost a hundred-fold. The military will release the official list within the next few days.

The Mobile Bureau of Occupation has gained one of its greatest expansions to date. With the Free Anarchy of Upper Strathyclyde's agreement to colonize the immediate areas surrounding the city of Tikrit, Komzestan, MBO directors are looking at its greatest test of power so far. MBO troops have been sent to Komzestan to begin the complete takeover of Deltannian possessions, and to remove remaining Fascist insurgents. New MBO supply methods hope to triple efficency of occupated lands.

In local news, a fire was sparked as a campsite outside of Haveena, causing massive devastation to the forestation. Firefighters from around the nation have been pouring in to stop the blazes from hitting local towns. Officials are restriction entrance to Haveena and nearby towns for the time being.

Market Analysis:

With the influx of the Komzestani lands and economy, the Dalium lost some momentum to compensate for the struggling ex-Fascist economy. Investors hope that this is a temporary shift. With a new market, the Dalium is expected to begin it's climb again. the DSE reports an average drop of 1.1. EU production has been running overtime to aid Dalium relief, raising the EU from 5.9 to a staggering 11.2. Analysts foresee a slow drop over the coming weeks.

Market Analysis:

General strikes in Corda have caused worry in the market today, as the Dalium's value plummeted. The DSE reports that the EU has remained naturally consistent, but with the loss of the Dalium, analysts expect that this barrier will not hold long. Artifical boosts to the already straining energy economy have caused two plant burnouts. As more try to fill the gaps, the EU rose to a worrysome 17.18, with analysts watching closely as increases occur.

Protests in the capital spread throughout the suburban areas, with new protests in the city of Salanar. Senator Long had this to say: "These new laws are in agreement with Deltannia's Constitution. These rioters who do not understand the intricacies of foreign policy will be set to justice." Police activity in the city has doubled under mayoral order.

Market Analysis:

The continuance of the strikes of Corda sent numbers plummeting today. The DSE still withheld from "Crisis" standings, but analysts are worried it could reach that point if trends continue. Cleanup of the Tralumena Power Plant were replaced by temporary power generators to help ease tension in West Deltannia. Inflation has occurred due to the aritificial boosts in the EUs value, now an estimated 25.77.

War With Rennd:

 

The Tarragat Island Outpost in the Byzantine Sea has reported that there has been heavy damage to both sides, but the remaining forces are currently battling it out. The Army released a statement today saying that it would be sending in troops with more naval escorts to further the efforts of the war. Several of the oil companies currently on the island have personally sent Deltannia several reduced-price shipments of cargo as gratitude, which will surely lower the pressure on the energy market.

The Deltannian Space Agency announced the successful launch of a new telescopic sensory satellite into orbit. It combines the technology of the greatest of Deltannian's corporations, including SysTech and DataFactCorp, in order to analyze interstellar phenomenon throughout the cosmos. Doctor Serling said this about the project:

 

"Our project utilizes the greatest efforts in equipment and technology, as well as calulcations. After calculating possible stable points, we chose the Lagrangian point L2 to host the telescope. We then provided for a new, expanded thruster assembly to keep it in a stable orbit. Finally, the brightest minds in Deltannia have come together in order to send this object into orbit, figuring out mass-momentum and energy ratios to make the launch cost wfficent in our Enegistic society. This will hopefully lead to ease in future projects, with the calculations redone, needing only to be modified for the given host."

 

The Space Agency plans to launch a human crew into orbit, both testing out its new orbiter shuttle craft, as well as adding on new modules to the telescope.

Market Analysis:

In an unsteady trend, the EU ended today with a value of 19.24, the first sub-20 end in weeks. Analysts hope to bring it down close to normal, trying to stem the inflationary aspects of the Dalium. New transmissions and power gridding has enabled a more efficent flow through East Deltannia, with construction projects continuing. Traders look forward to a return to normalcy in the markets in the days ahead.
