Is Leonard Sands now on Craig Flower's payroll? That dilapidated building had zero value, in fact negative value, i.e., the necessary cost to tear it down and remove the rubble.

This yapping little white-haired poodle had his chance and did nada to pivot our our tourism industry away from the greedy and polluting "all-for-them-none-for-us" cruise ship industry that brings us cheap skate visitors.

A certain numbers boss can probably identify both the critically injured 29 year old man as well as the other man who shot him. They were likely partners paid to light a fire who had a falling out over the sharing of the cash payment for their mission.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......

Meanwhile Secretary of State Rubio handed all four pages of his prep briefing notes for his meeting with Davis et al. back to his aide and said: "I will let President Trump know that neither of these two clowns, Davis nor Pintard, are fit to lead such a problematic country located so close to our nation." Not good!!

Meanwhile the billionaire oligarchs (Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos) who are now happily paying NASA ridiculously low fees for the use of their rocket launch facilities at Cape Canaveral are claiming with tongue in cheek that the falling burning debris from their most recent rocket launches had nothing to do with all of these raging bush fires across Abaco.

Both Disaster Risk Management Authority (DRMA) Executive Chairman Alex Storr and area MP John Pinder know full well who is now collecting rental income in cash from illegally renting out these government-issued RV trailers to the poorest of the poor. There is an obvious financial reason why both Storr and Pinder never bothered to ensure all 50 plus of these trailers were removed once they had served their intended purpose.

LOL. All of these so called "stakeholders" got together in their virtual meeting to figure out how best to royally screw the real stakeholders, i.e., the Bahamian people.

Notwithstanding the dismal macro economic outlook arising from the global tariff/trade wars instigated by the US, and without regard to CB's soaring general and administrative costs, management decided to spit into the high winds that lie ahead by making a whopping release of loan loss provisions, apparently in order to boost the bank's net income and enable huge dividend payments to its shareholders.

No doubt certain of the bank's more high profile 'de facto controlling' directors and shareholders had much sway in this decision to significantly reduce the bank's capital available for loan losses against the backdrop of the difficult times that would appear to lie ahead.

And if those facts alone are not sufficient cause for concern, this bank has bet its house on an high concentration of investments made in short-term debt instruments issued or guaranteed by the Bahamas government. This concentration of credit risk has resulted in a structural deformity of the bank's balance sheet that significantly heightens its overall risk profile.

Because the government has no means to repay its significant indebtedness to the bank, the bank is forced to replace its maturing investments in government debt with investments in newly issued government debt, thereby effectively 'rolling forward' its exposure to The Bahamas government indefinitely into the future. Not good!
