CEBU, Philippines – At late evening on September 30, 2025, Cebuanos found themselves shaken by a strong magnitude 6.9 earthquake that struck Bogo City. Along with nearby towns in the north, Bogo suffered from dozens of deaths, severe damage to housing and infrastructure, and aftershocks that have lasted for months.

To make matters worse, just around a month later on November 4, Typhoon Tino (Kalmaegi) wreaked havoc in the Visayas, causing widespread flooding especially in Cebu.

2025 has been a traumatic year for Cebuanos as it reeled from disasters that happened back to back. Here are some stories from people who dealt with the aftermath.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
