That's brilliant. I should start awarding extra-RP for good LARPing.

Technically speaking OMNI flipped upside down spells OWNI, it needs to be rotated by 180 clockwise/counterclockwise rather than flipped upside down to spell INWO

Sanjay Prateek: The financial industry is recovering from the harsh effects of the T-N Crash, meanwhile new technologies are causing the value of both old and new companies to skyrocket. This evening we will discuss Top Equity Booty picks, the enterprises that make the bears leave the scene allowing the bulls to take over. My name is Sanjay Prateek and this is Market Raider, your guide to the plunder of the World’s Market.
The T-N Crisis, a phrase that has been often repeated ever since the discovery of Trans-Newtonian minerals a few years ago. However contrary to what was believed before it happened, it did not take the form of a crippling shortage of T-N minerals. Instead the sudden discovery of gigantic previously unknown T-N deposits on Earth has caused the high price of T-N minerals to plummet.
The Financial Industry was shattered, trillions of Yehudimzahav vanished overnight and many banks found themselves on the verge of bankruptcy. Expensive Uridium jewelry once seen as a status symbol among the rich and famous of Prosperia turned into worthless trinkets in less than a day.
One bank emerged stronger than ever, Omni-Goliath Finance. Unlike every other bank it assumed the long position on T-N futures and call options, thus making billions in a near instant when it turned out that all those “easy money” T-N derivative investments turned out to be a ticking time bomb. Now it uses its surplus to buy up many of its competitors making it easily the World’s biggest Bank. Its value has nearly doubled in the past year alone making it worthy of being called Top Equity Booty.
Next up is OsipSensor Inc. a recent start-up that has already gained worldwide fame. Its founder Osip Luria has proven himself to be the top scientist in the field of quantum physics, as he has constructed the revolutionary Orbital Geological Sensor device. A design that has already been purchased or licensed purchased by various private companies and even governments around the world. Mr. Osip Luria himself is eager to sell the technology to third parties in exchange for other technological assets. OsipSensor value has already risen over twenty times its initial seed capital value.
Capable of being mounted on probes or dedicated manned spaceships this passive sensor detects minor fluctuations in sub-atomic particle emissions from orbit using it’s Flyby and Scan™ capability. Rumors circulating the business world say that the Venture Capital fund Omni-Goliath VC belonging to Omni-Goliath Finance, was the mysterious investor who funded the development of the first prototype. And that this prototype allowed it to predict the T-N Market Crash.
OsipSensor Inc. and indeed Osip Luria himself neither confirm nor deny if the Venture Capital funding it received did indeed come from Omni-Goliath VC. Regardless we can expect the brilliant man to design more advanced sensor equipment in the future, once again proving that investing in know-how pays off. This makes OsipSensor Inc. earn the title of Top Equity Booty.
Last but not least a familiar company we have all no doubt been acquainted with here in Omniventures and indeed in the World. The Friendly Atomic Power Company or F.A.P. Co. for short has seen a surge in profits as it started licensing and building new Glowpool® Pressurized Water Reactors.
This newest development by some of the most brilliant nuclear engineers in the World working at F.A.P. Co. is a clearly superior upgrade to the old CriticalMass® Graphite Moderated Nuclear Reactors. Not only is it safer but also the design is vastly more efficient in power output. F.A.P. Co. is eager to license this technology so that PWR reactors generate power not only for citizens of Omniventures but also of other nations of the World. So long as they’re not embargoed rogue states like the League which would no doubt use it to commit crimes against humanity.
Some see a bright future for this technology as it could be adapted to power not just the homes here on earth but also spacecraft, surface colonies on alien worlds and more. An investment in F.A.P. Co. is definitely an investment that will see great return yields which means it definitely is Top Equity Booty.
That’s all for today, I’ll see you again next week with more news of booty that awaits plundering. May the seven seas of the capital markets be profitable to you, goodbye.

Summaries.
Pro patria non mori. Following a resounding success of Polish and British medicine, Henry IX recovers from a disfiguring suicide attempt. It remains unclear whether the likely king's newfound fervour for politics stems from brain injuries. The article discusses a potential direct intervention by the royal family into the political process, particularly their ties with the future PM Dionizja Debski. A marriage between Harry and Ms Debski would signal a merger of monarchy and the Parliament, and a powerful gesture reconciling Poles and Britons.
PBC falls behind on industry. The pharmaceutical industry lauded by the Labour government as PBC's saviour failed to deliver. Experts blame the Prime Minister, Scott Shah, for demanding too many social responsibilities from the industry, particularly in connection with fighting unemployment among the Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities. Whatever industrial advantage the PBC may have had several years ago, it is now lost.
Labour poobah vows revenge. A referendum may be held to oust Scott Shah from the office. The PM attempts to rally ethnic minorities in his support. His approval ratings are low, and likely cannot be salvaged, especially in the presence of the assertive Ms Debski of PBNP. Shah attempts to manipulate the Army's success to his advantage.
Polish skinheads protect Jewish science. A riot erupted in Tower Hamlets, London, where local Muslim community leaders were gathering a mob to attack an office belonging to Osip Luria's company. A group of Polish skinheads gathered at the office to repel the rioters before the police could arrive. The events are indicative of a growing tension between the Polish and the youths, as well as of the unnecessary barriers ethnic communities create for PBC in its international dealings.
Armed Forces counter fraud claims. Independent experts are calling for an investigation into PBC Army's claim of being the strongest in the world. However, the Army is strong in propaganda; the nationalist sentiment is particularly wide-spread among the youth. A much-derided fashion trend among young nationalists is to wear white wings, like the hussars. Old right-wing bands, such as Honor, are suddenly reaching top chart positions.
P.S. PM'ed Storyfag. The offer is welcome.
Working on fleshing stuff out. Expect something tommorow, or maybe the day after.

Protests Sweep Poland As Government Declines Omniventures Technology
Country-wide protests occured in Poland today, as the Labour Government of Mr. Shah and his Social-Democratic allies announced its intention to decline the generous offer of technology trade made by Omniventures Inc. earlier this year. The L-SD coalition's spokesman, Mr.Tarik ibn-Arif explained: 'Entering this business deal would unnecessarily alienate the Muslim citizens of our Commonwealth. We cannot allow such an important facet of our society to feel neglected by the Government'.
Surprisingly, this move by the Government was fully supported by the ultra-right wing mass-media corporation of Father Director Tadeusz Kurkowski. In a stunning move, the multi-billionnaire Redemptorist friar best known for decrying the 'British Partition of Poland' spoke favorably of the Government for the first time since the Commonwealth was formed. He was reported to have said: 'Finally, even if for the wrong reason, the Government did something right. Trade with specimens of Mosesean Citizenry cannot be condoned. Even the Mohammadan rabble, disgusting though they are, is better than the Jewish scum who martyred Christ our Saviour.'
The move was not met with approval of the general populace, however, as traditional cries of "down with commies" have been heard in every major Polish city. Moreover [read more]
PBNP Takes The Lead
Recent popularity polls reveal a surge of the Polish-Britihs National Party's supporters, with a simultaneous Labour decline. Experts attribute this to the PBNP's unwavering commitment to the Commonwealth's traditional values: freedom of speech, freedom of ownership, freedom of religion and freedom of planting potatoes. We reached Dionizja Debski of the PBNP for a comment.
'I not surprised that the Nations of the Commonwealth have enough of Mr. Shah's continuous support of parasites that strangle the economy - whether they be of the secular variety or of the religious ones, like Muslims or followers of my own former denomination' said the ex-Catholic nun. 'Indeed, the Crown should look to the past for examples how to deal with such freeboters and what is to be gained by [read more]
TN Mineral Deposits On The Falklands?
The Royal Society published research hinting that rich deposits of Trans-Newtonian minerals might be found just beneath the crust of the Falkland Islands. Such discovery, if confirmed, could turn out to be a vital boost to our failing economy. Especially after the Soviet carelesness reduced the global TN supply so greatly.
The Government, however, declined to provide researchers with a grant needed to confirm the presence of the deposits, citing concern over cuts on social programs that would be needed to fund a proper geo-survey. We have reacher proffessor [read more]
Extremists Demand Annexation of Denmark
Lechosław Indorowski, the leader of the ultra-right-wing Prosperity in Sanctity party demanded the Government to annex a rebellion-torn Denmark, citing concerns over Soviet and Prussian aggression. 'Seeing as how there is a distinct possibility of a secret military pact between the Soviet Union and the New Kingdom of Prussia, it would be only prudent to secure Denmark as a means of controlling the Danish Straits and allowing for better communication between Poland and Britian. Unless, of course, Mr. Shah's Government plans to repeat the Western Betrayal, leaving us open to attack by our hated enemies. And, since it is not my Government, that devious plan is very likely.' said Mr. Indorowski.
The Muslim rebellion, raging for the better part of the previous year, has already cost the Danes approximately 55,000 civilian deaths. The Labour Government, however [read more]
