the air traffic control communication grid.. is a natural monopoly (there is only one). It has systemic security implications.
Does it make sense to have it owned and managed by a private contractor? |

How NVIDIA’s Changed Asian Revenue Reporting “Disappeared” Singapore - and What Else?
Short Thoughts November 15, 2026 A Farewell to Arms
Early this morning the WSJ published, “How Jensen Huang Built the Backdoor Route That Keeps Beijing in the AI Race.”
The subtitle goes on, “Massive data centers in Southeast Asia exploited a gap in U.S. sanctions, providing crucial computing power for Chinese companies and a cover for alleged chip smuggling.”
The press has now started to do its job on NVIDIA. Sad that it took a lurid affair to snap everyone out of it.

The price of helium per thousand cubic feet (MCF) varies widely depending on whether you are looking at wholesale bulk contracts, government benchmarks, or high-end spot markets, which have seen severe tightening:
Government Benchmarks: The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) set its standard bulk gaseous helium price at $1,338 per MCF (effective October 2026), marking a sharp 40% year-over-year jump driven by ongoing international supply disruptions originating in major exporting hubs like Qatar and Russia.
Wholesale & Contract Ranges: Broad commercial wholesale grades generally range from $400 to over $1,000 per MCF, depending on purity, region, and whether it is tied to long-term industrial supply agreements or shorter regional distribution channels.
Spot Market Extremes: In high-demand localized spot markets or regions facing tight logistics constraints (such as parts of Northeast Asia heavily reliant on Middle Eastern shipments), spot prices have cleared $1,000+ per MCF. |
