NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks rose to records Tuesday after Donald Trump’s latest talk about tariffs created only some ripples on Wall Street, even if they could roil the global economy were they to take effect. The S&P 500 climbed 0.6% to top the all-time high it set a couple weeks ago. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 123 points, or 0.3%, to its own record set the day before, while the Nasdaq composite gained 0.6% as Microsoft and Big Tech led the way. Stock markets abroad mostly fell after President-elect Trump said he plans to impose sweeping new tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China once he takes office. But the movements were mostly modest. Stock indexes were down 0.1% in Shanghai and nearly flat in Hong Kong, while Canada’s main index edged down by less than 0.1%. Trump has often praised the use of tariffs , but investors are weighing whether his latest threat will actually become policy or is just an opening point for negotiations. For now, the market seems to be taking it more as the latter. The consequences otherwise for markets and the global economy could be painful. Unless the United States can prepare alternatives for the autos, energy products and other goods that come from Mexico, Canada and China, such tariffs would raise the price of imported items all at once and make households poorer, according to Carl Weinberg and Rubeela Farooqi, economists at High Frequency Economics. They would also hurt profit margins for U.S. companies, while raising the threat of retaliatory tariffs by other countries. And unlike tariffs in Trump’s first term, his latest proposal would affect products across the board. General Motors sank 9%, and Ford Motor fell 2.6% because both import automobiles from Mexico. Constellation Brands, which sells Modelo and other Mexican beer brands in the United States, dropped 3.3%. The value of the Mexican peso fell 1.8% against the U.S. dollar. Beyond the pain such tariffs would cause U.S. households and businesses, they could also push the Federal Reserve to slow or even halt its cuts to interest rates. The Fed had just begun easing its main interest rate from a two-decade high a couple months ago to offer support for the job market . While lower interest rates can boost the economy, they can also offer more fuel for inflation. “Many” officials at the Fed’s last meeting earlier this month said they should lower rates gradually, according to minutes of the meeting released Tuesday afternoon. The talk about tariffs overshadowed another mixed set of profit reports from U.S. retailers that answered few questions about how much more shoppers can keep spending. They’ll need to stay resilient after helping the economy avoid a recession, despite the high interest rates imposed by the Fed to get inflation under control. A report on Tuesday from the Conference Board said confidence among U.S. consumers improved in November, but not by as much as economists expected. Kohl’s tumbled 17% after its results for the latest quarter fell short of analysts’ expectations. CEO Tom Kingsbury said sales remain soft for apparel and footwear. A day earlier, Kingsbury said he plans to step down as CEO in January. Ashley Buchanan, CEO of Michaels and a retail veteran, will replace him. Best Buy fell 4.9% after likewise falling short of analysts’ expectations. Dick’s Sporting Goods topped forecasts for the latest quarter thanks to a strong back-to-school season, but its stock lost an early gain to fall 1.4%. Still, more stocks rose in the S&P 500 than fell. J.M. Smucker had one of the biggest gains and climbed 5.7% after topping analysts’ expectations for the latest quarter. CEO Mark Smucker credited strength for its Uncrustables, Meow Mix, Café Bustelo and Jif brands. Big Tech stocks also helped prop up U.S. indexes. Gains of 3.2% for Amazon and 2.2% for Microsoft were the two strongest forces lifting the S&P 500. All told, the S&P 500 rose 34.26 points to 6,021.63. The Dow gained 123.74 to 44,860.31, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 119.46 to 19,174.30. In the bond market, Treasury yields held relatively steady following their big drop from a day before driven by relief following Trump’s pick for Treasury secretary. The yield on the 10-year Treasury inched up to 4.29% from 4.28% late Monday, but it’s still well below the 4.41% level where it ended last week. In the crypto market, bitcoin continued to pull back after topping $99,000 for the first time late last week. It’s since dipped back toward $91,000, according to CoinDesk. It’s a sharp turnaround from the bonanza that initially took over the crypto market following Trump’s election. That boom had also appeared to have spilled into some corners of the stock market. Strategists at Barclays Capital pointed to stocks of unprofitable companies, along with other areas that can be caught up in bursts of optimism by smaller-pocketed “retail” investors.

Nepal’s multinational giant CG Corp Global this week renewed its commitment to Sri Lanka, reiterating it will further grow its investments in existing and new sectors. CG Corp Global Group already has investments in Sri Lanka’s hospitality, financial services, and automobile sectors and its Managing Director Nirvana Chaudhary, who arrived in Colombo on Sunday, told the Daily FT that the Group is exploring opportunities in real estate, renewable energy, cement, as well as further expansion in the electric vehicle market. Among its longstanding investments are Taj Lanka Hotels PLC, Union Bank of Colombo PLC, and BYD Auto Lanka in partnership with diversified blue chip John Keells Holdings PLC. CG Corp Global also has investments in and joint ventures with Jetwing Symphony PLC and Ceylon Hotels Corporation PLC. “We have been committed to Sri Lanka for over three decades despite the country having gone through multiple challenges. We have remained steadfast as a long-term investor and partner for the wellbeing of Sri Lanka and our resolve to continue remains intact,” Chaudhary emphasised. “With the National People’s Power Government, under the leadership of President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, receiving a strong mandate from the people of Sri Lanka, we remain optimistic and confident of the future prospects of Sri Lanka,” he added. CG Corp Global Group’s recent investment is in the Union Bank of Colombo, in which it is the largest shareholder and Chaudhary is the Deputy Chairman. “We see strong growth prospects in financial services in Sri Lanka and will continue to explore opportunities to expand,” he said. Since the entry of CG Corp Global Group, Union Bank has set its vision to make it Sri Lanka’s first digital bank. CG Corp Global also owns Nepal’s biggest private sector bank – Nabil Bank. In August, Union Bank partnered with the University of Moratuwa and the National Innovation Agency to support the National Entrepreneurship Development Program (NEDP), aimed at empowering SMEs and youth aspiring to become entrepreneurs across Sri Lanka. This initiative – Union Bank School of Social Entrepreneurship (UBSSE) – aims to develop, support, and promote social entrepreneurs while providing essential access to finance. Chaudhary also said CG Corp Global also believes in providing community service as a driver of progress and prosperity for people as its CSR and philanthropic arm Chaudhary Foundation celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, championing sustainable social reform. In the automobile industry, CG Corp Global Group made a major foray by bringing in the world’s largest electric vehicle brand – BYD of China – in partnership with John Keells Holdings PLC. Chaudhary said the Group’s commitment to this sector is despite ongoing restrictions of imports but with the hope of relaxation and support to e-vehicles in Sri Lanka, thereby contributing to safeguarding the environment and reducing the fuel import bill. Given its existing forte in Nepal, by partnering with global industry giants, CG Corp Global Group is also keen to explore opportunities in the cement manufacturing sector in Sri Lanka, as well as in renewable energy and real estate. With interests in food and beverage, financial services, hospitality, cement, electronics, education, communications, automobile, and packaging, CG Corp Global is Nepal’s only multinational and the highest tax payer.

A Thirroul GP who specialises in treating women during midlife and menopause has opened a new clinic in Wollongong's southern suburbs. Black Friday Sale Subscribe Now! Login or signup to continue reading With demand surging for services relating to the skincare, weight and weight loss medication and hormonal and mental health issues that surround perimenopause and menopause, Dr Jemima Grant has set up Sanctuary by Thrive, in Unanderra. "Think about like a 40 year old's dream, somewhere where you can go and have, get advice about nice skin, get your skin treated, talk about weight loss, talk about hormone management, get evidence-based advice," she said. "I feel like a lot of women in their 40s - and men - just find it hard to lose weight, for instance, and as a system we're not offering them good care." "But as with many things in medicine and health and wellness, there is starting to be a huge commodification of menopause. "But that means having evidence-based guidelines, or having a doctor talk to you about it is, really important, because not everything is menopause , but also menopause is really a holistic subject." "Not everything can be fixed with a tablet or a pill or a patch, you also need to make changes in your life and adapt and you need help and support to do that." "Teaching you to look after yourself is a huge part of surviving menopause because you actually have to change and start nurturing and not giving out all the time, because you just run out of energy, and that obviously applies to all humans, but we're not machines. She is operating from a site on Tannery Street that fit her purpose of helping people with their "wellness, rather than sickness". "I also wanted to have a really safe environment for people to come that wasn't a traditional medical environment with sick people, because a lot of what we're doing is health prevention," she said. "I called it The Sanctuary because I wanted people to see it as a place they could come to speak to, qualified, educated people about their concerns - or maybe things that they might feel a bit shy or embarrassed about." Dr Grant works with other health practitioners, like a dietitian, diabetes educators and personal trainers. "I feel like this type of thing where we're seeing really multi-disciplinary teams working in wellness rather than sickness will be happening more and more," she said. While she has focused on women's health, Dr Grant said she had started seeing more men in recent months. "I'm seeing young men and middle-aged men who were so responsive to coming to like a discreet place to talk about their concerns, so I have tried to keep it a bit gender neutral," she said. "And I think you'll find in a year or two that that actually men will be coming to these sort of places more often to to look after themselves." Using her own experience Dr Grant became an advocate for women experiencing menopause symptoms after being blindsided when she started experiencing perimenopause, even though she was a GP with years of experience. She remembers being told 'it's nothing, it's in your head, have an anti-anxiety tablet' and has since hosted events to help educate women about perimenopause. She publicly shared he experience of having symptoms in her 40s, which ended in her quitting her job because she didn't get the right help to treat the condition. "With my third baby I started to get sweats while I was breastfeeding, which I thought was because I was really stressed," she said. "I had some postnatal depression, and over the next few years I had a lot of emotional symptoms and weight changes that were, when I look back on it, worse the two weeks before my period." "I was sitting there sweating, dripping on my patients, getting super-stressed and having panic attacks on the way to work, not sleeping well." "I went to my doctor, who put me on an anti-anxiety tablet - which I tried and got side-effects - and I ended up just quitting my job." Now years later, she incorporates clinical medicine focusing on perimenopause into her Thirroul skin clinic, encouraging people to try yoga, herbs, exercise or hormone treatments to treat their symptoms. Could you have perimenopause? While perimenopause is slowly becoming much better understood and widely talked about, Dr Grant said too many women were not being diagnosed and treated. "As a doctor, my biggest message is, if you're getting a lot of symptoms of perimenopause, it can herald that you're at risk of cardiovascular disease in your future life," she said. "Perimenopause is kind of like the canary in the coal mine for women - if you're getting a lot of sweating, hot flushes it's a warning sign that we need to treat it and not just ignore it." "Women have been told there's nothing we can do about it, it's just something you have to go through, or that it's too dangerous to treat - but that's actually not true." She said women should be on the lookout for symptoms of perimenopause from their mid-to-late 30s, with a new onset of anxiety or insomnia usually the earliest signs she sees as a clinician. "This can be from low progesterone - which happens way before your estrogen starts to drop - and is a very calming hormone," she said. "So in the two weeks before our period you might feel anxious, have insomnia, not sleep well, to panic, have rage and low mood. And you can actually correct that with a bioidentical progesterone, or you can start with herbs." She said women may also see a change in their weight as their estrogen starts to drop, because of the link between estrogen and insulin. "When you're low in estrogen, you tend to put weight on your abdomen, which is the area that has high metabolic risk and is very hard to lose, and increases your risk of heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure," she said. "I want women to know that there is a way of living your life where you have to become a bit more accountable, and this will help these symptoms. "Women need to know that this is a time that they have to look after themselves, and that there is so much you can do now to prevent and help with symptoms, and also prevent chronic disease down the track."

HELSINKI, Finland , Dec. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ICEYE, the global leader in SAR satellite operations for Earth Observation and persistent monitoring, announced today that it has launched two new satellites to its constellation of SAR satellites. Both satellites expand the availability of ICEYE's latest imaging technology to deliver additional 25 cm imaging capacity. The satellites were integrated via Exolaunch and launched as part of the Bandwagon-2 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA . Both satellites have established communication, and early routine operations are underway. With today's launch, ICEYE has successfully launched 40 satellites into orbit since 2018, with nine satellites launched in 2024 alone. The new SAR satellites were launched into mid-inclination orbits; compared to a polar orbit, these mid-inclination orbits provide more than twice the collection opportunities at middle latitudes of the globe. ICEYE customers have many areas of interest in these middle latitudes (+/- 45 degrees), and these customers will benefit from increased persistence over these regions. Customers with imaging interests outside these middle latitudes will continue to benefit from the frequent revisit enabled by ICEYE's dozens of satellites in polar orbits. ICEYE's unique mix of mid-inclination and polar orbits provides its customers with deep revisit capabilities for targets all around the globe. The new satellites will serve ICEYE's commercial missions as part of the world's largest SAR satellite constellation owned and operated by ICEYE. Rafal Modrzewski , CEO and Co-founder of ICEYE said: "This launch marks another significant milestone in ICEYE's ability to provide our customers with a rich diversity of collection opportunities. We bolster our industry-leading SAR constellation and expand our customers' collection opportunities in the areas most important to them." Today's launch is another step forward in ICEYE's steady drumbeat of innovative breakthroughs in Earth Observation. This year alone, ICEYE has, for example, introduced Dwell Precise, a new 25 cm imaging mode that offers its customers the highest-fidelity 25cm imaging capability, and adds advanced capability to ICEYE's line of Dwell products; launched an API that allows customers to directly task its SAR satellite constellation; and launched ICEYE Ocean Vision to provide actionable intelligence for maritime domain awareness.
