England will face Canada in a rematch of the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup final as part of a trio of fixtures in the WXV Global Series in September. The Red Roses were crowned world champions for a third time when they beat Canada 33-13 in front of more than 80,000 people at Twickenham five months ago. In September, they are set to host Australia, Canada and New Zealand across three regions in England. John Mitchell's side will welcome Australia to the CorpAcq Stadium on 12 September before hosting Canada at Sandy Park in Exeter on 19 September. They will also face six-time World Cup winners New Zealand at Twickenham on 26 September. "We can't wait for another head-to-head with one of the best teams in the world," England and Exeter's Maddie Feaunati said about the game against Canada. Red Roses captain Megan Jones said "there is not a lot better than a Red Roses v Black Ferns fixture", while Sale Sharks hooker Amy Cokayne added it was "fantastic" to host Australia in the north west. The fixtures are part of the WXV Global Series, which has replaced the WXV competition and will feature the top 12 teams in the world. Scotland, Ireland and Wales, along with France, Italy, Japan, South Africa and the United States are the other teams that qualify as the top 12 sides. Teams will play between 9-16 Tests on the WXV Global Series, outside of World Cup years, with a maximum of six Tests every September and October. England will play their first match since their World Cup win when they start their Women's Six Nations defence at home to Ireland on 11 April.

Microsoft Corporation (ISIN: US5949181045) grapples with investor doubts over massive AI infrastructure investments, triggering a five-week downtrend on Nasdaq. Analysts hold a Moderate Buy rating with a $591.87 target, signaling potential upside as contrarian bulls eye a March rebound above $400. DACH investors should watch for cloud growth signals vital to European enterprise demand. Microsoft Corporation stock has entered a five-week downtrend on Nasdaq, driven by investor skepticism over escalating AI infrastructure spending. Recent reports highlight struggles to demonstrate returns from heavy capital outlays in data centers and AI capabilities, prompting some funds to trim positions while analysts maintain a Moderate Buy consensus. For DACH investors, this moment tests the resilience of Microsoft's Azure cloud dominance, crucial for German industrial digitalization and Swiss financial services tech stacks. As of: 23.03.2026 By Dr. Elena Voss, Senior Tech Equity Analyst – Tracking how AI capex cycles shape long-term software leaders like Microsoft for European portfolios. Recent Downtrend Signals Investor Caution Microsoft's shares on Nasdaq have declined over five consecutive weeks, reflecting broader market concerns about profitability amid aggressive AI expansion. Institutional moves, such as Argent Capital Management lowering its position, underscore selective profit-taking despite solid fundamentals. This pullback comes after strong quarterly results, with EPS at $4.14 and revenue reaching $81.27 billion, yet the market fixates on future capex burdens. The stock's trajectory highlights a classic growth stock tension: balancing innovation investment with near-term margins. Traders note a contrarian bull case emerging, with options flow favoring a rebound. Prediction markets bet on a close above $400 by month-end on Nasdaq, betting against prolonged weakness. For DACH observers, this dip offers a calibration point. Microsoft's enterprise software penetration ...

Last week was challenging for most investors. The three major market indexes moved lower for the fourth consecutive week. Growing investing icon Cathie Wood -- the founder, CEO, and primary stock picker of Ark Invest's family of ETFs -- has historically used pullbacks to load up on falling favorites, but she was surprisingly quiet this time. Ark Invest added to only three existing positions last week. She bought shares in Figma (FIG 2.02%), Arcturus Therapeutics Holdings (ARCT 1.34%), and 10x Genomics (TXG +0.00%). Having a light hand as many of her stocks corrected is unusual for Wood, but it should also find investors hungry to understand why she chose these three names. Let's take a closer look at Wood's latest Ark Invest purchases. 1. Figma One of the hottest IPOs out of the gate last year has cooled down in a major way. Figma, a provider of website design for websites, apps, and other digital formats, has plummeted 83% from last summer's highs, a peak it achieved after more than quadrupling from its original $33 offering price. Figma stock is one of the many cloud-based platforms getting slammed by a dramatic shift in market sentiment. The bearish narrative has providers of premium software-as-a-service (SaaS) stocks eventually coming under competitive pressure from cheaper, if not free, artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. Expand NYSE : FIG Figma Today's Change ( -2.02 %) $ -0.49 Current Price $ 23.73 Key Data Points Market Cap $12B Day's Range $ 23.05 - $ 24.17 52wk Range $ 19.85 - $ 142.92 Volume 61K Avg Vol 13M Gross Margin 82.43 % But Figma's popularity isn't waning. Revenue growth actually accelerated in its latest quarter. Year-over-year top-line growth hit 40% in the final three months of last year, up from a 38% increase in the previous quarter and well above the 35% rise it was initially projecting. The shares popped higher on last month's blowout quarter, only to give back those gains -- and then some. Its net dollar-retention rate of 136% is stel...
Hong Kong’s arts funding body has said it will not cut financial support to arts groups and artists for the next three years, even as it undertakes a review of its grant system amid tightening public finances.

Hong Kong’s arts funding body has said it will not cut financial support to arts groups and artists for the next three years, even as it undertakes a review of its grant system amid tightening public finances. The Hong Kong Arts Development Council’s (HKADC) pledge on Monday comes amid a government effort to get statutory bodies to reduce spending, as reinforced by finance chief Paul Chan Mo-po’s latest budget in February. The HKADC, along with other government bodies, faces ongoing reductions of about 2 per cent to its recurrent subvention this financial year, as the government presses ahead with spending cuts. Most bureaus and departments were required to reduce expenditure by 1 per cent in 2024-25 and 2 per cent annually from 2025-26 through to 2027-28, amounting to a cumulative 7 per cent across the four financial years. Advertisement “I think I can make a promise, and I think this is a responsible promise from the HKADC, that in the next three years, even if government funding is reduced, we will not reduce the grants to our arts sector,” council chairman Kenneth Fok Kai-kong said. “This is the council’s collective decision … a commitment we can give to the arts and culture sector.” Advertisement The council would instead aim to save costs internally and optimise how public funds were used, he added. The council currently supports more than 50 arts groups annually. It funded more than 300 projects in the 2024–25 financial year, according to figures released on Monday.

In China’s 14th Five-Year Plan, the mandate for Hong Kong was clear: build an Asia-Pacific center for international legal and dispute resolution services. Fast forward to the recommendations for the 15th Five-Year Plan, and the operative word has shifted to deepening. This is no mere semantic tweak. It signals a profound institutional mandate. Hong Kong is evolving from a passive recipient of international rules into a critical node shaping China’s foreign-related legal framework and the broader global governance order. The rule of law is becoming the new yardstick of the city’s future competitiveness. You've accessed an article available only to subscribers Subscribe today for just $.99. VIEW OPTIONS
