Has the Global Population Met it’s Peak?

Global population growth is slowing, despite reaching 8 billion in 2022, with stark differences across regions.

While some countries are still growing, others are seeing significant declines—40 countries now have shrinking populations, some losing over 1% annually, due to low fertility rates, outmigration, and aging populations.

Notably, countries in Eastern Europe and East Asia, as well as Russia, are experiencing rapid population decline.

Experts predict that more nations, including large ones like China, will face shrinking populations in the coming years due to continued low birth rates and aging demographics.

A Recession? More of a Slow Down

UBS CEO Sergio Ermotti expects increased market volatility in the second half of the year, partly due to the upcoming U.S. election and global economic uncertainty.

Student Loans

A Private Student Loan Caused Rebecca More Bad than she Bargained for

In 2007, Sabrina Finch, pursuing a nursing degree, took out a private student loan from Navient, with her mother Rebecca as a co-signer.

After Sabrina's health declined, leading to her disability, Navient discharged her debt but transferred the $31,000 loan to Rebecca, now 85 and struggling with her own health issues and a fixed income.

Rebecca's limited Social Security benefits make it impossible to cover the loan, raising fears that the lender might seize her home.

Despite Sabrina's efforts to inform Navient of her mother's situation and apply for a disability discharge, the company continues its aggressive collection tactics, leaving the family in distress.
