Tasos Katopodis As the war in the Middle East escalates, President Donald Trump said on Saturday that “all hell” will rain down on Iran if Tehran fails to reach a deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. “Remember when I gave Iran ten days to make a deal or open up the Hormuz Strait” Trump wrote in a social media post, adding, “Time is running out—48 hours before all hell will rain do...
Tasos Katopodis As the war in the Middle East escalates, President Donald Trump said on Saturday that “all hell” will rain down on Iran if Tehran fails to reach a deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. “Remember when I gave Iran ten days to make a deal or open up the Hormuz Strait” Trump wrote in a social media post, adding, “Time is running out—48 hours before all hell will rain down on them.” Trump’s latest threat comes as the U.S. and Israeli military campaign in the Middle East enters its fifth week and global oil prices continue to climb amid Iran’s decision to block much of maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key trade route. Previously, on Mar. 26, following a request from the Iranian government, Trump delayed attacking Iran’s energy infrastructure by 10 days to Apr. 6, noting that the talks with the Islamic Republic were going “very well.” Dear readers, we recognize that politics often intersect with the financial news of the day, so we invite you to click here to join the separate political discussion.

Trump ordered data collection after raising concern about race being used as factor in college admissions A federal judge on Friday halted efforts by the Trump administration to collect data that proves higher education institutions aren’t considering race in admissions.

Trump ordered data collection after raising concern about race being used as factor in college admissions A federal judge on Friday halted efforts by the Trump administration to collect data that proves higher education institutions aren’t considering race in admissions. The ruling from the US district court judge F Dennis Saylor IV in Boston granting the preliminary injunction follows a lawsuit filed earlier this month by a coalition of 17 Democratic state attorneys general. It will only apply to public universities in plaintiffs’ states. Continue reading...

The Trump administration has revoked the green cards or US visas of at least four Iranian nationals connected to the current or former Iranian government, including two who have been detained by immigration authorities and are to be deported. The latest actions were taken just this week when Secretary of State Marco Rubio determined they were no longer eligible for either lawful permanent resident status, or to enter the United States. The steps follow a move late last year in which the visas of...
Most of what has gone wrong this season can be put down to poor recruitment – but the manager must share the blame Even when the fixture list was revealed last summer, it was perhaps predictable that the middle of March would represent the crisis point for Newcastle.

Most of what has gone wrong this season can be put down to poor recruitment – but the manager must share the blame Even when the fixture list was revealed last summer, it was perhaps predictable that the middle of March would represent the crisis point for Newcastle. If they had reached the Champions League quarter-finals and won the Tyne-Wear derby at St James’ Park, a lot of other frustrations could have been forgotten. Even better, that game against Sunderland would have had to be postponed had Newcastle reached a third Carabao Cup final since 2023. Those days of celebration a year ago feel a long time ago now, but the mood could easily have been very different. Newcastle were the better side in the home leg against Barcelona in the last 16 of the Champions League. Only the concession of a daft late penalty denied them victory and they were a persistent threat on the break in the first half of the away leg. Only in the second half of the second leg did the game get away from them: a 7-2 defeat made the difference between the sides seem much greater than it actually was. Continue reading...

Pakistan will return matured loan deposits to the United Arab Emirates, in a move that will strain the South Asian nation’s reserves. The deposits “were placed under bilateral commercial agreements, demonstrating the UAE’s strong support for Pakistan’s economic stability and prosperity,” according to a statement by the Foreign Ministry posted on X on Saturday. They have now matured and will be returned through the State Bank of Pakistan, it noted. The move comes despite State Bank of Pakistan Governor Jameel Ahmad previously reiterating that bilateral partners have assured the country its debt will continued to be rolled over. Pakistan in February secured a two-month period to renegotiate the terms and tenure of two loans of $1 billion from the UAE, according to local media . The total debt amounts to $3.5 billion, according to the Express Tribune, citing an unnamed cabinet official. This repayment will strain the nation’s dollar reserves, which stood at $16.4 billion as of March 27. Pakistan also has a bond payment due in April for $1.3 billion.

e-crow/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis My buy judgment for TRX Gold Corporation ( TRX ) is a highly conditional buy. After 4 years of a “dead” zone period despite increasing gold prices, the gold producer started delivering interesting results, becoming fully self-funded (zero debt on the balance sheet), publishing an uncertain (but plausible) PEA assessment of 62,000 oz/year average gold production during the 17.6 years of the mine’s estimated life, and discovering the Stamford Bridge Zone. My Monte Carlo NAV simulation (under some fundamental assumptions made) estimated a median share price of $0.69, significantly below the current share price of $1.50. Looking solely at the numbers, this would be enough to justify a Sell rating, but the positive skewness of the stock justifies the bullish investment for an investor convinced of three assumptions: 3-year investment horizon (to be aligned with the beginning of Phase 2 of the PEA), sustained gold prices above $3,000/oz and risk tolerance for an investment with huge concentration in a single country such as Tanzania. In other words, investing in TRX makes sense only if an experienced investor is looking for a higher exposure to gold prices. On the contrary, an investor looking for a margin-of-safety gold exposure, the comparative analysis of TRX against SPDR Gold Shares ETF ( GLD ) and VanEck Gold Miners ETF ( GDX ) will show how these ETFs represent a better investment. Introduction and Business Overview TRX Gold ( NYSE: TRX ) is a junior gold producer, currently operating a single gold asset, which is the Buckreef Gold Project, located in Tanzania. The difference between being a gold producer and a gold developer or explorer is key, as in the first case I could rely on audited financial data published on Yahoo Finance to derive my analysis. TRX has completed an important expansion of its production and processing plants for the Buckreef project, which enabled the company to increase its productivity to 2,...

Ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have sent the price of oil soaring, fueling fears of a slowdown in the U.S. economy. As a result, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) stock market index plummeted by 5% in March, with many individual stocks suffering even steeper declines.

Ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have sent the price of oil soaring, fueling fears of a slowdown in the U.S. economy. As a result, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) stock market index plummeted by 5% in March, with many individual stocks suffering even steeper declines. But Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) bucked the sell-off, delivering a gain of 2.5% for the month. Short-term moves in the stock market are usually just noise, especially during periods of heightened volatility. But AMD is gearing up for one of its strongest years ever, so it makes sense that investors are holding on to their shares. AMD has become one of Nvidia 's top competitors in the market for data center graphics processing units (GPUs), which are the primary chips used in artificial intelligence (AI) development. Here's why its stock could remain resilient for the foreseeable future. Continue reading

Muriqi strikes late winner for relegation battlers Bayern Munich come from behind to beat Freiburg Real Mallorca dealt a major blow to Real Madrid’s title aspirations as Vedat Muriqi struck an added-time winner to seal a shock 2-1 win for the hosts, leaving Real four points behind Barcelona before the leaders play Atlético Madrid later on Saturday. The hosts withstood Real’s pressure early in the game, keeper Leo Roman denying Kylian Mbappé with two diving saves, before Mallorca took the lead from their first shot on target in the 42nd minute as Manu Morlanes converted Pablo Maffeo’s cross.
