PEPE isn`t cheap just because the price has a lot of zeros.
That’s the part many investors miss.
PEPE has grown from a meme into a $1.47 billion market-cap asset, with more than 584,000 holders. But unlike traditional assets, its investment case isn`t built on earnings, cash flows or a conventional business model. Its value is heavily influenced by community, liquidity, social-media attention and speculation.
So the real question isn`t:
“Is PEPE cheap?”
It`s:
“Is the market ready to give meme coins another wave of liquidity and attention?”
That distinction could matter more than the number of zeros on the price chart. Tap link in bio to read more.

Nigeria is going back on the global investor radar.
On September 21, Nigeria returns to the FTSE Russell Frontier Market Index.
That could mean new capital, more liquidity and increased attention for Nigerian equities.
But there’s a catch:
Being on the list doesn’t automatically make a stock a winner.
Market cap matters.
But so do free float, liquidity, investability, valuation and earnings growth.
And some of the more interesting price moves could happen before September 21, as investors position ahead of the reclassification.
So, where could the money actually go?
We break down the stocks, the potential capital flows and the factor investors shouldn’t overlook.
And yes, Slide 4 is worth paying attention to.

Marina Times Opinion
The global economy is growing. But the safety net is getting thinner.
At the G20 Finance meeting, global growth was still around 3% for 2026. Yet beneath that number sits a more uncomfortable picture: stubborn inflation, record-high debt, rising bond yields and growing economic fragmentation.
And emerging markets may feel the pressure most.
Higher borrowing costs are squeezing debt-service capacity, potentially crowding out spending on infrastructure, healthcare and education.
Meanwhile, AI and digital assets are moving from the sidelines into the centre of global financial policy.
So what does the G20’s agenda mean for markets and for economies like Nigeria?

Marina Times Myth Friday
Some money lies are so common, we’ve started calling them financial advice.
“I’ll save when I earn more.”
“It’s only ₦2,000.”
“I deserve this.”
Which one has exposed you?
Drop the number. No explanations.

Marina Times Opinion
Nigeria’s economy grew faster in Q2 2026 but the numbers tell a more complicated story.
Real GDP growth accelerated to 4.43%, up from 3.89% in Q1, with the non-oil economy accounting for 95.84% of real GDP. Agriculture, telecoms, construction and services all helped drive the recovery.
But beneath the headline is a warning sign: manufacturing grew just 3.24%, while electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning contracted by 10.63%.
So, is Nigeria’s growth becoming more resilient or are structural weaknesses still holding it back?

Uber left Nigeria. But was the problem really the market?
Nigeria has the demand. What became harder was making the economics work.
From fuel and FX volatility to rising operating costs and squeezed margins, Uber’s exit offers a bigger lesson about building businesses in frontier markets.
Would you build the next Uber differently?
A. Pricing
B. Driver commissions
C. Payment model
D. The whole business model

Alternative Asset Update
Crypto doesn’t move in one straight line. It moves in cycles.
From quiet accumulation, to the excitement of a mark-up, to profit-taking at distribution and eventually the fear of a mark-down, the market can move through four distinct phases.
The tricky part? Knowing which phase you’re actually in.
Understanding the cycle can help make sense of price action, sentiment, volume and market participation and why the same market can feel completely different from one phase to another.
Accumulation → Mark-Up → Distribution → Mark-Down → Accumulation
But there’s a catch: cycles are a framework, not a guarantee.
Read full article on Market Cycle in Cryptocurrency on our website to understand what each phase could mean for the market.
