At the time, Amy Hunt was worried that her words might be bleeped out by the BBC. But, while she may no longer feel able to wear the T-shirt which inspired her "corny" spur-of-the-moment quote, it has since become clear that the impact was worth the sacrifice. Shortly after completing her long-anticipated rise to a first individual global podium by sprinting to world 200m silver in Tokyo, the 23-year-old, caught in an adrenaline-fuelled daze, brilliantly summarised the demanding path she had taken to get there. The University of Cambridge graduate proclaimed to all young girls watching on BBC TV: "You can be an academic badass and a track goddess." "As soon as I said it, I was like, 'oh my gosh, I'm on the BBC'. I was like, 'are they going to bleep that out?' I feel so bad," says Hunt. "I was so incredibly high with adrenaline and endorphins that there wasn't a connection between my brain and my mouth. All I remembered was that I had this T-shirt that said 'Goddess' on it, so that flashed into my mind. "I feel like I can't wear that T-shirt because it's too corny to wear now."

Thailand ’s new parliament elected Anutin Charnvirakul as prime minister on Thursday, keeping the conservative in the top office after his party routed its election rivals with a nationalist campaign. The Southeast Asian nation’s next government will have to handle the fallout from the Middle East conflict, sluggish economic growth and lingering border tensions with neighbour Cambodia. “I hope to remain in my position to serve the people for as long as I can,” Anutin told reporters ahead of the parliamentary vote on Thursday. Advertisement “Those who know me understand that whenever there is a problem affecting the public, I will respond immediately to their needs.” Anutin’s pro-military and pro-monarchy Bhumjaithai party had its best electoral performance ever in February after two rounds of deadly border clashes with Cambodia last year.

The manager of a top-performing European equity fund said the pullback in markets since the start of the war in Iran has allowed her to pick up under-the-radar stocks at deeper discounts. Camilla Anderson , who runs Overseas Asset Management Cayman Ltd. ’s European fund, said she bought more shares of beverage group Laurent-Perrier . Most of her bigger holdings, including fertilizer firm Yara International ASA and shipper Wilh Wilhelmsen Holding ASA have outperformed the fund’s benchmark in March. Her fund has returned 56% in dollar terms in 2025 and beaten 98% of peers over the past five years. “Having a diversified portfolio means there are a few stocks which reacted pretty positively,” she said. “We’ve got a decent cash position, so that we can continue to take advantage of these opportunities.” The turmoil unleashed by the conflict in the Middle East has sent global stocks tumbling as investors trimmed their exposure to riskier assets. While European stocks have lost more than 5% over the period, Anderson said the volatility has offered her an opportunity to invest when valuations get dragged down. “There’s always plenty of risk,” Anderson said, “But being stock pickers, that’s what really gives us the margin of safety. That’s something we think is quite unique, as opposed to taking a bit more of a blanket approach.” Anderson’s fund has returned 71% since the beginning of 2024 through Jan. 31 this year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Among her 10 biggest holdings at the end of December, only Standard Chartered Plc , Danieli & C. Officine Meccaniche SpA , an Italian metals firm, and RTW Biotech Opportunities Ltd. have lagged the Stoxx 600 since the turmoil started through Wednesday. The artificial intelligence-led rally in US stocks in recent years, coupled with rising index concentration and stretched valuations, has left the market vulnerable to a correction, Anderson said. “There’s always volatility risk and we can definitely see a scenario in which ...

In this article ENEL-IT BAS-DE ARGX-BE VNA-DE Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Vadimrysev | Istock | Getty Images LONDON — European stocks are expected to slump at the open on Thursday as the Iran war escalates following attacks on Iranian and Qatari energy infrastructure. The U.K.'s FTSE index is seen opening 09% lower, Germany's DAX down 1.6%, France's CAC 40 down 1% and Italy's FTSE MIB 1.2% lower, according to data from IG. A significant escalation in the conflict came Wednesday when Israel launched strikes on Iran's South Pars gas field, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory missile attacks on Qatar's Ras Laffan liquefied natural gas terminal. U.S. President Donald Trump warned on Wednesday that if Iran continued targeting Qatar's energy facilities, America would "massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field." Oil prices jumped once again overnight following the strikes and comments. European market attention is also turning to central bank action in the region today with monetary policy decisions from the European Central Bank, Bank of England, Riksbank and Swiss National Bank on Thursday. The central banks are widely expected to hold rates steady across the board as policymakers wait and see where the war in Iran is heading and assess its impact on the growth and inflationary outlook in the region. U.S. stock futures inched lower overnight after the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped to a fresh 2026 low. The decline came after a surprisingly hot producer prices report , and greater inflation expectations from the Federal Reserve, which have added to fears that the war in Iran could mean the U.S. economy is headed for a stagflation scenario — or a period of lower growth and higher pricing pressures. Asia-Pacific markets dipped on Thursday, tracking losses on Wall Street. Earnings come from Enel , Equinor , BASF , Argenx and Vonovia . — CNBC's Sarah Min contributed to this market report.

In Brief Edra, a New York-based startup that says it helps companies automate workflows by turning their existing operational data into a living knowledge base, just picked up a meaningful vote of confidence: a $30 million Series A led by Sequoia, with participation from 8VC and A*, the venture firm founded by serial entrepreneur Kevin Hartz. The founders are worth paying attention to. Eugen Alpeza and Yannis Karamanlakis say they met at university 13 years ago and spent years at Palantir before going out on their own — Alpeza building out major commercial accounts and leading the launch of Palantir’s AI Platform; Karamanlakis as the company’s first Forward Deployed AI Engineer, focused on getting AI models out of demos and into actual production. The problem they’re tackling is straightforward. Companies are sitting on loads of useful operational data — emails, logs, support tickets, chat histories — but have no good way to act on it.

Tesla, Inc. (ISIN: US88160R1014) shares test key support levels on Nasdaq in USD after the Fed signals no imminent rate cuts, amplifying concerns over slowing EV sales and competition. German-speaking investors watch closely for impacts on European expansion and supply chain ties. (148 characters) Tesla, Inc. stock tumbled as the US Federal Reserve confirmed no rate cuts are coming soon, dashing hopes for cheaper financing in the electric vehicle market. Shares on Nasdaq in USD hovered near critical support at 390 USD, with analysts warning of further downside to 375 USD if breached. This matters now because higher interest rates squeeze auto affordability, hitting Tesla's growth story hard. For DACH investors, the ripple effects hit home through Tesla's Gigafactory in Germany, local supplier networks, and exposure via major funds like DWS or Union Investment. As of: 19.03.2026 By Dr. Elena Voss, Senior EV Markets Analyst – 'Tracking Tesla's path through regulatory hurdles and tech shifts defines the next decade for sustainable mobility investors.' What triggered the sell-off The immediate catalyst came from the Fed's Wednesday announcement. Officials signaled steady rates amid persistent inflation, removing a key tailwind for growth stocks like Tesla. Tesla, Inc. stock, listed primarily on Nasdaq under ISIN US88160R1014, saw intraday pressure building below 423 USD on Nasdaq in USD. Technical analysts noted selling reemerged, targeting 390.12 USD as a pivotal 38% Fibonacci retracement level from recent lows. Without rate relief, borrowing costs stay elevated. This directly impacts consumer demand for high-ticket items like Tesla's Model Y and Cybertruck. Tesla's operating company structure, with no confusing subsidiaries for the common shares, leaves the pure-play EV maker exposed. Investors dumped shares, fearing delayed recovery in deliveries. Cross-checking official IR updates from Tesla confirms no counter-news like beats on production. Global financial outlets...

Malaysian police are on a hunt for thieves who stole 30 urns from a funeral home in the southern state of Negeri Sembilan, in a bizarre case with possible links to a cross-border criminal group holding the ashes of deceased for ransom. The Xiao En memorial park reported the incident in late February, when it discovered that at least 15 urns had gone missing from a columbarium. Police later revised the figure to 30. The cemetery groundsmen received a WhatsApp call from a foreign-registered number demanding a ransom for the return of the urns. Advertisement “Since this case involves elements of cross-border communication and the use of digital technology, we are seeking technical help from the relevant agencies,” Nilai district police chief Johari Yahya was quoted as saying by local English daily The Star on Wednesday. Police did not say how much the thieves had demanded or if they had given a deadline to respond. Advertisement Johari said the case was being investigated for theft, extortion and trespassing on burial grounds, with the first two offences carrying penalties of up to 10 years in jail, a fine or both. Xiao En said it had begun reviewing security measures at the park following the incident and helped the families affected by the theft lodge police reports and provided continued support to them.
