Air & pollen

  • Very quiet for trees (alder/birch ≈0). Grass near zero. Mugwort the main note — ≈0.6–4 grains/m³ by day after a higher overnight bump (≈7–8 at dawn). Ragweed negligible (≈0–0.2). Mild mugwort day for sensitive noses

Markets

*Monday-open watch*

  • Weekend quiet — CME equity/commodity sessions closed; figures below are last Friday closes / early weekend indicative prints (sources: Investing.com, liveindex.org).
  • Gold (GC Dec ’26): ≈4,320.50 USD/oz · +0.52% vs prior close (closed Fri 25 Sep)
  • Crude WTI: ≈92.44 USD/bbl · −2.29% (closed Fri 25 Sep); Brent ≈104.45 (−2.02%)
  • Nasdaq futures: ≈30,921.80 · +0.50% (weekend indicative vs prior)
  • S&P 500 futures: ≈7,805.75 · +0.50%
  • Also: VIX futures print softer (≈14.87, about −5% on the weekend board); DAX/Euro Stoxx futures modestly green on Sunday European boards
  • Hormuz/Iran: Trump rejected Tehran’s 7-day reopen plan; Iran says it still awaits an official mediated reply — oil and risk premia can swing on any headline
  • Crude’s Friday dump (−≈2% WTI) — does the de-escalation bid hold or reverse into the open
  • AI / mega-cap tech tone after a week of narrow leadership (SPY up, equal-weight soft)
  • Treasury yields / fiscal chatter still in the mix for US risk assets
  • Midweek IPO calendar (Oura, Accelevation) may start coloring sentiment even before Wednesday pricing

IPO Watch

  • Busy midweek US slate (week of 29 Sep):

  • OuraOURA

    smart ring / health subscription; targeting ≈$2.1B raise at $40–$44; expected trade Wed 30 Sep (Renaissance Capital / IPOScoop)

  • AccelevationACCV

    data-center power & infrastructure; ≈$660M at $20–$24; also Wed 30 Sep

  • Smaller: Encore Medical (EMI) 30 Sep; Siyata PTT (PTT) guided ≈30 Sep / list ≈1 Oct; a few micro-deals later in the week

  • EU: no big confirmed peers for this exact week in the calendars checked; Japan Standard has Crasus Chemical ≈29 Sep

Conflicts

  • Ukraine: Overnight into 27 Sep, Russia launched ≈170 drones (incl. many jet-powered); Ukraine reports ≈147 downed/suppressed, hits at ≈18 sites. Zelenskyy: Moscow not preparing to stop; cites planned spending on jet drones. Sat toll: at least ≈10 dead across Russian and Ukrainian strikes; energy/civilian damage in multiple regions.
  • Iran / Hormuz: Trump rejected Iran’s 7-day plan to pause fighting and reopen the Strait; FM Araghchi says Tehran waits for an official US answer via mediators. US economic pressure (“Operation Economic Outcast”) continues; Saudi-led forces reported intercepting Houthi missiles/drones toward the kingdom Sat.

Garlasco / Chiara Poggi

Tomorrow (Mon 28 Sep) is the Procura di Pavia deadline: second 415-bis (chiusura indagini) expected for Andrea Sempio, with new prosecution consultancies attached; defense then has ≈20 days for memorie/consulenze. Over the weekend: ex-RIS chief Luciano Garofano heard as persona informata; Cataliotti (defense) says they await Monday discovery. Orientation in coverage: likely path toward richiesta di rinvio a giudizio — not yet a court ruling. Nothing beyond that countdown today.

Tools & tech

Bitwig & Traktor: Nothing new in releases or worthwhile YouTube tutorials in the last 1–2 days.

Linux

  • Tip: wrap flaky one-shots with timeout 30s your-command — kills hangs cleanly and returns exit 124 if it overruns (great for scripts and SSH probes).
  • Package: ripgrep (sudo apt install ripgrep) — blazing recursive search via rg; respects .gitignore by default, way faster than grep -R.

Grok Bot tip

Timezone wrong after travel? Jump straight to the Timezone setting: Timezone. Set Europe/Rome (or Prague) once — calendar blocks and “today” math stay honest.

Good News

  • Reef soundtracks work: In Hawai‘i (Kāne‘ohe Bay), broadcasting healthy-reef audio drew 4–14× more larval fish than silent controls (Scientific Reports; TOI Science, 27 Sep 2026).
  • CO₂ → jet fuel at scale: Tsinghua’s one-step catalytic pilot hit ≈97% CO₂ conversion, with ≈92% of output in aviation-fuel range (kiloton-scale, Sichuan; via EurekAlert / Sustainability Directory).
  • Sound goes quantum: Stanford team watched single phonons make real-time quantum jumps — a first for sound, with hooks for quantum error sensing (Science; ScienceDaily, 22 Sep 2026).

Wonder

A microscopic mechanical resonator at Stanford can “ring” for ≈2 milliseconds — scaled up like a normal tuning fork, that would be hours of sustain — long enough for a superconducting qubit to catch the exact moment a single quantum of sound vanishes (ScienceDaily / Stanford, Sep 2026).

Painting of the day

Pala di Brera (Pala Montefeltro) — Piero della Francesca, ≈1472 · Pinacoteca di Brera, Milano

Pala di Brera — Piero della Francesca

Sacra conversazione under a deep apse, Federico da Montefeltro kneeling, the suspended egg hanging from the shell — perspective as theology. Sgarbi, writing the Raffaello lineage through Piero:

«Non c’è niente di più bello al mondo, da lì viene tutto Raffaello.»

— Vittorio Sgarbi, il Giornale, 10 Jan 2020 (source)

Marco Aurelio

Al mattino comincia col dire a te stesso: incontrerò un indiscreto, un ingrato, un prepotente, un impostore, un invidioso, un individualista. Il loro comportamento deriva ogni volta dall’ignoranza di ciò che è bene e ciò che è male. Quanto a me, poiché riflettendo sulla natura del bene e del male ho concluso che si tratta rispettivamente di ciò che è bello o brutto in senso morale, e, riflettendo sulla natura di chi sbaglia, ho concluso che si tratta di un mio parente, non perché derivi dallo stesso sangue o dallo stesso seme, ma in quanto compartecipe dell’intelletto e di una particella divina, ebbene, io non posso ricevere danno da nessuno di essi, perché nessuno potrà coinvolgermi in turpitudini, e nemmeno posso adirarmi con un parente né odiarlo. Infatti siamo nati per la collaborazione, come i piedi, le mani, le palpebre, i denti superiori e inferiori. Pertanto agire l’uno contro l’altro è contro natura: e adirarsi e respingere sdegnosamente qualcuno è agire contro di lui.

Pensieri, II.1
