VIDEO INTRO: Today I would like to report on the downfall of the European Union again. So, apparently, it seems as if everything is to be done so that we cannot survive economically anymore. The European natural gas price has now risen to 100 euros per megawatt hour, and that's the first time since 2022.

So, that's really crazy, and a lot of natural gas is used to produce electricity. So, this means that the electricity will also become much more expensive, and also we will get electricity shortages because there's also less natural gas. So, once you have higher prices when it comes to resources, it's really bad because it's affecting all corners, all sections of an economy.

Meanwhile, oil companies are making millions in profits. The Austrian OMV, which is the only refinery that we have here in Austria, is making more profit than ever before. So, here they are saying that this oil company in Austria has increased the operating profit to approximately 2.1 billion euros. And here they are saying that the rise in the energy sector was mainly due to positive market effects, and this is what they call the increased oil and gas prices.

Also, now the gold and silver price is plummeting, and that's because it's expected that the European Central Bank is going to raise interest rates even more. Also, a lot of companies are struggling, and the automotive industry is also struggling. In Germany, for example, Audi reports losses in the third quarter.

Here's another article about Shell. The company Shell has made 11 billion in profits in the first quarter. British oil giant Shell doubled its adjusted profit. Crazy. It's crazy how much those companies are making. In the third quarter, the core Audi brand slipped into the red despite the sales of 11 billion. The quarterly loss amounted to 174 million euros.

Another sign that the economy is going down is actually the punctuality of the German train. The German Bahn, or Deutsche Bahn, was known to be perfect and punctual. You would not even notice that you are in a train because it's going so smoothly over the rails; it's unbelievable. But now the German Bahn has problems with their punctuality.

Also here they are saying that fewer trains will run on Germany's tracks. And they are saying punctuality is at an all-time low...
