Kazuhiro Nogi | Afp | Getty Images Asia-Pacific markets traded mixed on Tuesday as investors weighed developments in U.S.-Iran negotiations. U.S. President Donald Trump and his national security team on Monday discussed Iran's reported offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, contingent on the U.S. lifting its blockade and ending the conflict, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. It remains unclear whether Trump, who has said sanctions relief would come only once a deal is "100% complete," is willing to consider the proposal as a pathway to de-escalation in the two-month-long conflict. "I will confirm the president has met with his national security team this morning," Leavitt said at a press briefing Monday afternoon when asked about the reports. Japan's Nikkei 225 declined 0.49% after notching a record high on Monday, while the Topix added 0.23%. South Korea's Kospi r ose 0.1% while the small-cap Kosdaq declined 0.92%. In Australia, the S&P/ASX 200 lost 0.58%. Similarly, Hong Kong Hang Seng index futures were at 25,875, lower than the index's last close of 25,925.65. U.S. futures edged higher, with Dow Jones Industrial Average futures adding 0.12%, or 57 points. S&P 500 futures rose 0.14%, while Nasdaq 100 futures added 0.15%. Overnight in the U.S., the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite rose to new record highs but gains were limited as stalled Iran peace talks and a fresh escalation in the Strait of Hormuz pushed oil prices higher. The broad market index added 0.12% and closed at a record level of 7,173.91. The Nasdaq Composite gained 0.20% and notched a closing record of 24,887.10. Both indexes also reached new all-time highs in the session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 62.92 points, or...

Nissan Motor Co. shares climbed the most in three weeks after the Japanese carmaker raised its earnings outlook, avoiding what could have been its first annual operating loss in five years. The stock rose as much as 5.6% in early morning trading in Tokyo, the most since April 8, after the company estimated it posted a full-year operating profit of ¥50 billion ($314 million), compared with its previous forecast for a ¥60 billion loss. Nissan cited the removal of US emissions-related charges, a favorable foreign-exchange impact and improved cost performance. It’s a rare bright spot for a carmaker that’s been struggling to reshape itself after failing to keep up with the industry’s shift to electric vehicles and hybrids in Japan, China and the US. Even so, the revision mainly reflect non-core factors rather than a rebound in underlying demand. Nissan’s management expects further gains from cost discipline, improved cash flow in the second half and incremental benefits from a refreshed product lineup. Final results are scheduled to be released May 13.

PaulGrecaud/iStock via Getty Images Boise Cascade ( BCC ) down 2.2% post-market Monday after pleading guilty and sentenced to pay a $6.38M fine for violating federal law for its role in a timber trafficking scheme, the U.S. Department of Justice said . The DoJ said the company purchased, sold, and transported hardwood plywood from Horizon Plywood that it knew, or should have known, was illegally imported from China to evade countervailing and anti-dumping duties. The importation was illegal because Horizon smuggled the wood and violated the Lacey Act by falsifying import declarations for hardwood and softwood plywood, the DoJ said. The fine represented twice the gross profits it derived from the illegal wood at issue in this case, and the company also was sentenced to implement a compliance plan.

Nearly 10,000 Pounds Of Methamphetamine And Marijuana Seized By US Authorities Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), Around 10,000 pounds of marijuana and methamphetamine were seized by U.S. authorities in two separate incidents in recent weeks. A joint operation on April 20 intercepted a Go-Fast vessel with 3.2 tons of marijuana, the largest load of marijuana ever stopped in Colombian waters. Courtesy of the Joint Interagency Task Force/X “A joint operation on April 20th led by @ArmadaColombia intercepted a Go-Fast vessel with 3.2 tons of marijuana, the largest load of marijuana ever stopped in Colombian waters , preventing drug-trafficking organizations from reaping the profits,” the Joint Interagency Task Force (JIATF) South said in an April 23 post on X. Armada Colombia is part of the country’s naval defense arm. The 3.2 tons of marijuana, which comes to 6,400 pounds, has an estimated spot value of roughly $7 million. JIATF leverages its member nations’ capabilities to identify and monitor drug trafficking in the air and maritime domains. The task force seeks to interdict and take the drugs into custody to disrupt the shipment of illicit narcotics and degrade or dismantle transnational criminal organizations. In another significant seizure, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers at the Otay Mesa Commercial Facility, California, took custody of more than 3,000 pounds of methamphetamine, with an estimated value of $4.92 million, according to an April 23 statement from the agency. The narcotics were “concealed within a cargo trailer,” which the CBP had referred for a secondary inspection on April 14, the agency said. “The shipment manifest had listed the commodity as corrugated cardboard boxes,” it said. An initial nonintrusive inspection identified anomalies in the front wall of the trailer. A physical inspection found 300 packages of meth. According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the overdose d...
