Investigating one of the worst train accidents in Spain's history More than a week after one of the worst train accidents in Spain's history, many questions remain unanswered, and survivors struggle to move on. EMILY KWONG, HOST: Tomorrow, train conductors in Spain start a three-day strike to call for better safety on the nation's rail network. This comes after a train collision in January that killed 46 people. The investigation into the cause of the accident is ongoing. NPR's Miguel Macias reports from Seville. MIGUEL MACIAS, BYLINE: It was a regular Sunday afternoon. Many Spaniards were following week 20 of LaLiga, the famous soccer league. Barcelona was playing that night. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING) UNIDENTIFIED ANNOUNCER: Goal (vocalizing). (SOUNDBITE OF HIGH-PITCHED RHYTHMIC BEEPING) MACIAS: That's sound from Cadena SER radio. But then, the soccer play-by-play was interrupted by breaking news. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING) UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER #1: (Speaking Spanish). MACIAS: Over the hours, the worst fears were confirmed as the death toll rose steadily. By the time Spaniards got up the next morning, it was a full-on tragedy. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING) UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER #2: (Speaking Spanish). MACIAS: The national public television had the death toll at 24 at the time, but it was still rising. Some things were ruled out right away. It wasn't excessive speed. It wasn't old trains in disrepair. It wasn't human error of any kind. Officials called the accident tremendously strange, especially as the trains which collided were on a straight, parallel section of track. The morning after, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez admitted getting answers would take a while. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING) PRIME MINISTER PEDRO SANCHEZ: (Speaking Spanish). MACIAS: "Spanish society is wondering what happened, how it happened, and how this tragedy was even possible," Sanchez said. Jose Maria Galan (ph) was a passenger riding on the second train, the one that c...

Her call for help on 1 January was not even the first of the year for the rescue team, but it was complex, taking four hours to make her stable enough to be moved to the waiting air ambulance.

High in the Italian Alps, where the thin air and oxygen deprivation often does strange things to the brain, British accents have started whispering about the possibility of Magic Monday – and Team GB winning three medals in one day at these Winter Olympics. And the craziest thing of all? It’s not entirely out of the question. Late on Sunday evening, Mia Brookes, the 19-year-old British snowboarding superstar, dug herself out of a hole with the help of Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera and Judas Priest to qualify third for the Big Air final on Monday. Before then, Team GB’s mixed curling team of Bruce Mouat and Jen Dodds will play in their semi-final in the afternoon, knowing they are odds‑on favourites with the bookies having lost just one game, against Switzerland, in the group stages. Win their last-four encounter and they will guarantee a medal. Then there is the 21-year-old Kirsty Muir, who goes into the freeski slopestyle final full of confidence, having also come third in qualifying. The bookies make her third favourite for gold too, behind only the Swiss skier Mathilde Gremaud and the Chinese star Eileen Gu. Are three Team GB medals likely? No. But can you rule it out? Also no. View image in fullscreen Jen Dodds and Bruce Mouat have reached the curling mixed doubles semi-final. Photograph: Andrew Milligan/PA Sunday night, though, was all about Brookes in the Big Air. It is an event not for the fainthearted, given that it requires snowboarders to fly down a 150‑feet high ramp before launching off a ramp, and trying to spin as much as possible before nailing the landing. And Brookes’s Winter Olympics campaign could not have got off to a worse start as she over-rotated on her first run and ended up sliding towards Livigno town centre on her backside. Her score of 29.75 points left her 24th out of 29 competitors. And to add to the jeopardy, she knew that only the top two scores from a competitor’s three runs are counted. It meant she needed to score big on her second ...

Kroger Co. plans to hire Greg Foran as the supermarket chain’s next chief executive officer, The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday, citing people familiar with the matter. Kroger replaced CEO Rodney McMullen in March after an investigation into his personal conduct , which followed a failed deal and a string of management departures under the longtime leader. The company didn’t specify the nature of his conduct. The company is expected to announce the choice of Foran as early as Monday, some of the people told the Journal. Foran is a former CEO of the American division of Walmart Inc . Most recently, he was CEO of Air New Zealand Ltd. until announcing in March he was stepping down. Read More: Albertsons Wants Details on Ex-Kroger CEO’s Personal Conduct The appointment would mark something of a homecoming for Foran, a New Zealand native credited with turning around Walmart’s US business in the mid to late 2010s. He made stores cleaner and friendlier, in addition to lowering prices and raising pay for employees. Cincinnati-based Kroger has been run by interim CEO Ron Sargent since March. Kroger has posted healthy sales in recent years as consumers prioritize groceries and other necessities to save money. Under Sargent, it has been accelerating new store openings, closing underperforming locations and updating other priorities after the US government blocked its $24.6 billion deal with Albertsons Cos. Kroger didn’t immediately provide a comment on the report.

瑞穗证券指出，日本周末的选举可能会加大市场对政府增加支出的预期，日元因此倾向于走弱。 “一场决定性的选举胜利可能会强化市场对短期内积极财政政策的预期，从而刺激短期日元抛售，” 首席交易策略师Shoki Omori说。 中期来看，日元走势将取决于美日利差以及政府财政公信力如何反映在期限溢价中。 责任编辑：丁文武

2月9日，香港特區高等法院對先前已被裁定串謀勾結外部勢力危害國家安全罪和串謀發布煽動刊物罪等罪成的黎智英作出量刑裁決，依法判處其監禁20年。這項判刑嚴正有力宣示：無論是誰，膽敢挑戰維護國家安全法律，都必定受到嚴懲。 對黎智英的判刑充分體現香港特區維護國家安全的堅定意志，有力彰顯法治精神。國家安全是頭等大事。黎智英所犯罪行在全世界任何地方均屬嚴重犯罪。黎智英案150多天的庭審揭露，黎智英不僅自己公開招徠外部勢力幹預，聲稱「很想外國影響我們」、「非常需要外國的勢力讓我們撐下去」、「為美國而戰」，而且支持資助有關組織進行國際遊說，乞求外部勢力製裁中國和香港特區。黎智英也操縱輿論工具，肆意煽動香港社會對中央政府和特區政府的仇恨、煽動市民非法抗爭、煽動暴力。這些行為和活動嚴重違反香港國安法和香港相關法律，嚴重挑戰「一國兩制」原則底線，嚴重衝擊特區憲制秩序，嚴重破壞香港繁榮穩定。香港特區法院根據事實和法律對黎智英作出定罪，確認其為涉案罪行主腦，按照其罪行嚴重程度，依法律規定予以公正判刑，是貫徹法治的必然要求。也應當指出的是，黎智英案的審理公開透明、程序嚴謹，被告訴訟權利依法受到保障，法院獨立進行審判不受任何干涉，展現香港法治的成熟堅韌和無可指摘的公信力。 對黎智英的判刑充分反映香港社會對反中亂港首惡分子的同仇敵愾，有力伸張公理正義。香港特區法院在黎智英案的定罪裁決判詞中就已指出，黎智英為了達到其目的，不惜犧牲國家和香港市民的利益。人們早已認清，黎智英從來不是所謂「爭取自由民主人權的鬥士」，而是損害國家根本利益和香港市民福祉的罪魁禍首、漢姦國賊。作為一系列反中亂港活動的主要策劃者、組織者、參與者，黎智英的惡行對香港、對國家造成了深刻的危害。特別是其以幕後黑手推動「修例風波」演變成港版「顏色革命」，造成香港一度「港獨」猖獗、「黑暴」肆虐、「攬炒」橫行，社會秩序和法治秩序受到嚴重破壞，經濟發展和民生福祉受到嚴重傷害，國際形象和競爭優勢受到嚴重損害，道德文明和青年一代受到嚴重毒害，讓香港不深的一切。香港社會對此徹骨之痛永忘。如今黎智英終於受到嚴懲，再次印證一句警言：正義或許會遲到，但永遠不會缺席。 我們堅定支持香港特區履行維護國家安全憲制責任，全面且準確地實施維護國家安全法。香港特區執法、檢控、司法機關無畏無懼、恪盡職守，堅定維護國家安全，堅定維護法治。一切危害國家安全的行為和活動都必...

Both the State Street SPDR MSCI ACWI Climate Paris Aligned ETF (NZAC +2.01%) and iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG +2.50%) target global equity exposure, but their approaches diverge: NZAC aims to align with climate goals across developed and emerging markets, while IEMG focuses on emerging-market equities.

jetcityimage Kroger ( KR ) plans to name Greg Foran as its next chief executive, The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday, citing people familiar with the decision. The appointment ends a months-long search for a permanent leader. An announcement could come as soon as Monday. Kroger ( KR ) has been without a full-time CEO since longtime chief executive Rodney McMullen stepped down last year following an ethics issue. The company had said it wanted an external hire to bring a new perspective. Foran joins at a pivotal moment for Kroger ( KR ), which is navigating food-price pressure and plotting growth after its proposed $20 billion acquisition of Albertsons ( ACI ) collapsed in 2024. Kroger ( KR ) is also competing more aggressively with discount grocers as shoppers remain price-sensitive. Foran previously led Walmart’s ( WMT ) U.S. business from 2014 to 2019, where he focused on store operations, fresh food and inventory discipline. He later served as chief executive of Air New Zealand until late last year. Kroger ( KR ) has been run on an interim basis by chairman Ron Sargent, a former Staples chief executive. Under Sargent, the company has cut about 1,000 corporate jobs, closed weaker stores and fulfillment sites, and reinvested savings into promotions, private-label expansion and price reductions. The leadership change comes amid broader turnover across big-box retail, with new CEOs recently taking over at Target ( TGT ) and Walmart ( WMT ). Kroger ( KR ) reported $147 billion in revenue for fiscal 2024 and said its efforts have helped it gain grocery market share despite intensifying competition from Aldi, Walmart ( WMT ) and Publix.

Three tailwinds could lift this sector when the new Fed Chair makes his mark. President Donald Trump hasn't been shy in demanding that the Federal Reserve cut interest rates, and unsurprisingly, his choice to succeed Fed Chair Jerome Powell is potentially on the same page. Kevin Warsh has echoed the President's calls for lower rates in recent months, and federal funds traders now forecast an 81% chance of a rate cut by this summer, with a 45% chance of one in April, before Warsh is even sworn in. After almost four years of tight monetary policy, there are indications that U.S. companies can look forward to lower borrowing costs. That's great news for real estate investment trusts (REITs), which benefit from lower interest rates in three ways. These companies, which follow tax-related rules that require them to pay 90% of their net income back to shareholders as dividends, typically offer high yields that attract income investors who might otherwise be left out in the cold by falling Treasury yields. Their valuations can also rise because their future cash flows are discounted using the 10-year Treasury yield as a benchmark, so as the latter falls, REIT valuations rise. Finally, lower borrowing costs naturally boost REITs, since they fund their long-term operations through long-duration debt that can be refinanced at more favorable terms when interest rates fall. You can see REITs' tendency to outperform by comparing their returns during the last era of prolonged low rates against those of the S&P 500. From June 2009 to November 2015, when the federal funds rate never exceeded 0.21%, the Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF (VNQ +1.57%), an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that offers broad exposure to U.S. equity REITs, handily beat the S&P 500's total return. Still, not all REITs will thrive amid falling rates, while others will be standout performers. Here are three opportunities in the REIT universe to consider buying now. 1.

Good morning and welcome back. It was huge weekend for elections. In Japan, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is poised for a historic landslide , but it’s an outcome that may fuel further market volatility. In Thailand, early results from yesterday’s vote show the ruling, pro-royalist Bhumjaithai party is on track to secure 191 seats in the 500-member House of Representatives — nearly triple the last election in 2023. The outcome represents the best-case scenario for the royalist establishment, but marks a significant setback for the pro-democracy movement. Here’s all you need to know about Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and how he sealed a clear win . - Ainsley Thomson, Wellington bureau chief What’s happening now In Australian politics, the country’s two main opposition parties have revived their long-standing coalition after it fractured due to a disagreement over a new anti-hate speech law. The coalition between the smaller National Party and the larger Liberal Party was formally reformed yesterday. The alliance had governed Australia for almost two-thirds of the period since World War II, but held less than a third of seats in the lower house of parliament after an election thrashing last year. All of Australia’s major iron ore ports have been shut as Tropical Cyclone Mitchell hits the west coast. Operations at the ports of Ashburton, Cape Preston West, Dampier, Port Hedland and Varanus Island were halted, while bulk carriers and other vessels were forced out to sea to avoid the storm. Cape Lambert has also been impacted, according to Rio Tinto Group.

深陷丑闻的彼得·曼德尔森当初被任命为英国驻华盛顿大使所引发的风暴进一步逼近首相基尔·斯塔默，他的幕僚长Morgan McSweeney周日宣布辞职。 “任命彼得·曼德尔森的决定是错误的：他损害了我们党、我们的国家和对政治本身的信任，” McSweeney周日发表声明说，“我当初建议首相做出这项任命，而我也对此建承担负全部责任。在公共生活中，责任必须在关键时刻承担，而不仅仅是在最方便的时候。” 失去这样一位关键助手对斯塔默来说无疑是沉重打击，他上周三曾表示仍然信任McSweeney并视其为“我团队的必不可少一员”。McSweeney是工党在2024年大选取得压倒性胜利的功臣，也是首相最亲密的高级顾问，他的离职令斯塔默的处境更加危险。 Morgan McSweeney 名为“主流”的工党内部左翼政客团体周日发表声明称：“所有参与任命彼得·曼德尔森为驻美国大使这一灾难性决策的人都必须被追究责任，而唐宁街10号中最支持曼德尔森的人面临后果是恰当的。’” 责任编辑：丁文武

日本财务大臣片山皋月试图安抚投资者的同时也发出了警告，说如有必要会在周一与金融市场沟通。 周日选举结果陆续公布的同时，片山在电视节目上重申自己与美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特保持着密切联系。她表示，两人共同肩负着维护美元-日元走势稳定的责任。 “日本和美国签署了谅解备忘录，明确规定我们可以对脱离基本面的快速波动采取果断措施，” 片山说，“那当然包括干预。” 美国似乎已经出手在汇率上拉了日本一把。上个月日元的剧烈波动最初被认为是东京可能采取的干预措施，但后来证明主要是美国所为。对华盛顿和东京可能采取联合行动或进行干预的担忧也吓退了投机者。 然而，这种策略未必能再次奏效。这意味着日元再次走弱最终可能导致政府干预，而片山或许正是想通过她的表态来推迟或避免这种情况。 片山说她正密切关注金融市场，同时强调奉行负责任的财政政策。 “高市政府非常关注财政可持续性，也希望加以保持，” 她说。 责任编辑：丁文武

愛潑斯坦案｜施紀賢幕僚長因文德森醜聞辭職 分析指失「政治大腦」、相位岌岌可危 To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 【有線新聞】英國首相施紀賢的幕僚長麥克斯威尼承認，曾建議施紀賢委任捲入愛潑斯坦案的文德森出任駐美大使，稱要為這個錯誤決定負全責、引咎辭職。 英國首相施紀賢的幕僚長麥克斯威尼，因前駐美大使文德森捲入淫媒富商愛潑斯坦案的風波引咎辭職。他承認前年建議施紀賢委任文德森出任駐美大使是錯誤決定，批評文德森損害工黨、國家及政治互信，他會負全責，深刻反省後決定辭職。 施紀賢稱很榮幸能與麥克斯威尼共事多年，感謝對方協助工黨在2019年大選慘敗後扭轉劣勢，2024年選舉帶領工黨取得壓倒性勝利。 48歲的麥克斯威尼是施紀賢2020年當選工黨黨魁，及工黨勝出2024年大選的重要功臣。分析指麥克斯威尼被視為施紀賢的「政治大腦」，過去10年在英國政壇舉足輕重，他辭職將令施紀賢失去最值得信賴的競選策略及政治顧問，相位更岌岌可危。 除了工黨內部逼宮，在野黨亦繼續施壓。保守黨黨魁栢丹娜認為麥克斯威尼早應辭職，但施紀賢亦應承擔責任。改革黨黨魁法拉杰亦批評工黨只是延續保守黨執政的混亂，相信施紀賢即將下台。

Luis Alvarez A sweeping tax and spending package passed last summer is set to lift refunds for millions of Americans this filing season, with higher-income households and active investors likely to see the biggest impact, the New York Times reported Sunday. The law cuts individual taxes by an estimated $129 billion in 2025, according to the Tax Foundation, and could push the typical refund up by as much as $1,000. For investors, the changes matter less for paycheck withholding and more for how income from stocks, businesses and digital assets is taxed. Several provisions from President Trump’s first term were made permanent, including a larger standard deduction, while others were expanded or newly introduced, creating fresh incentives and pitfalls. One of the most consequential shifts is the temporary expansion of the state and local tax deduction. For 2025, the SALT cap rises to $40,000 from $10,000, before phasing down for households earning above $500,000 and snapping back to $10,000 for those above $600,000. That makes itemizing attractive again for many investors in high-tax states, especially those with sizable property taxes, investment income or stock-based compensation. Consider A.M.T. now, not at tax time next year Capital-heavy households should also keep an eye on the alternative minimum tax, which effectively returns in 2026. Changes to the formula mean taxpayers earning more than $500,000, particularly those with large capital gains, incentive stock options or high state taxes, are more likely to be caught by the AMT. Planning ahead, rather than waiting until filing season, may help reduce the hit. Crypto investors face tighter reporting. For tax year 2025, exchanges and brokers are required to issue a new Form 1099-DA detailing taxable digital-asset transactions. While proceeds will be reported, cost basis often will not, meaning traders may need to reconstruct records to avoid overpaying or underreporting gains. Business owners also get clarity. The...

1. The recent months have seen extreme volatility in precious metals, particularly gold and silver, shaking both speculators and industries and prompting a fresh review of gold's reputation as a safe-haven asset in the global financial system. One Chinese mutual fund manager metaphorically described this period as a cycle of "killing the shorts, then the longs, then the shorts again," capturing the violent swings and uncertainty that gripped the markets. [para. 1][para. 2] 2. The roller-coaster began with a spectacular rally at the start of 2026: spot gold surged to highs of around $5,600 per ounce (up 30% from the start of January), and silver reached $120 per ounce (up 67%). However, this rally unraveled by month's end, with Jan. 30 marking gold and silver's worst one-day drop in 40 years. By February 6, gold settled around $4,867 and silver at $73. The spike in volatility pushed the CBOE Gold ETF Volatility Index above 44%, a level last seen during the 2008 financial crisis and the early COVID-19 market panic in 2020. [para. 3][para. 4] 3. This turmoil did not remain confined to precious metals; it sparked a cross-asset chain reaction, disturbing commodities, stock markets, and cryptocurrencies, and raising deep questions about whether gold should still be considered a safe haven or a speculative asset. Despite the chaos, some investors remain committed to gold in the long term, citing de-dollarization and geopolitical uncertainty, but the crisis has served as a warning against excessive leveraged speculation that distorts fundamentals. [para. 5][para. 6] 4. The origins of the early-year boom lay in speculative fervor, with traders describing a palpable sense of euphoria. Lu Ting, Nomura's chief China economist, said the surge was largely driven by sentiment rather than actual fundamentals. Key policy moves by U.S. President Donald Trump—such as a surprise military raid in Venezuela, a criminal probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and tariff threats—heightened unc...
