• Banks Selling X Debt, UK’s Four-Day Workweek Push, and New Microcontinent Discovered Near Greenland

  We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of 'Discover Daily', we explore three significant stories shaping our world. The episode kicks off with a deep dive into the financial landscape of X (formerly Twitter), where Morgan Stanley leads a consortium of banks preparing to sell billions in Musk-related debt at a discounted rate, reflecting the platform's challenging journey since its $44 billion acquisition. We then transitions to examining the growing momentum of the four-day workweek movement in the UK, where 200 companies across various sectors are pioneering this revolutionary approach to work-life balance, despite some implementation challenges.And finally, we conclude with an extraordinary geological discovery - the Davis Strait proto-microcontinent, hidden beneath the waters between Greenland and Canada. This remarkable formation, spanning 400 kilometers with a continental crust thickness of 19-24 kilometers, provides unprecedented insights into Earth's tectonic history. The microcontinent's formation process, which began 118 million years ago, serves as a pristine example of continental breakup mechanisms and offers valuable clues about our planet's future geological evolution.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/banks-selling-x-debt-Twz2jcL4RfiYdBIjE91HZAhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/uks-four-day-workweek-push-4kKE6f18TJmxjFlwdTjKAQ ​​https://www.perplexity.ai/page/new-microcontinent-discovered-_EQhEW.7QR6DtKUViXRXzgPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.
