Ocenaudio (free GPL Win, Linux, Mac) can also Normalize audio.
1) Import all chaptered audio files by dragging them into Ocenaudio and it takes awhile to analyzing them (about 3x longer than audacity). Each chapter double click on and choose Effects | Normalize or press the Normalize button.
2) Each subsequent chapter just press Ctrl-Y to repeat the Normalization after double clicking on the track to select it.
3) File | Save All and it'll output the opus files to a variable bitrate around 50kbps overwriting the original ones.
4) For that rare chapter if it doesn't normalize the track like the other tracks judging by the waveform graph then use the Gain Tool and increase the dB appropriately.
For advanced users: you can use MKVToolnix to extract the chapters without re-encoding them although you'll have to manually rename the chapter names. https://www.tg-me.com/kr/GeekTips/com.geektips/79

If riding a bucking bronco is your idea of fun, you’re going to love what the stock market has in store. Consider this past week’s ride a preview.The week’s action didn’t look like much, if you didn’t know better. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 213.12 points or 0.6%, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.5%, and the Nasdaq Composite ended little changed.
That growth environment will include rising inflation and interest rates. Those upward shifts naturally accompany healthy growth periods as the demand for resources, products and services rise. Importantly, the Federal Reserve has laid out the rationale for not interfering with that natural growth transition.It's not exactly a fad, but there is a widespread willingness to pay up for a growth story. Classic fundamental analysis takes a back seat. Even negative earnings are ignored. In fact, positive earnings seem to be a limiting measure, producing the question, "Is that all you've got?" The preference is a vision of untold riches when the exciting story plays out as expected.
