Turkish state lenders sold about $6 billion to defend the lira on Thursday, about half shortly after a court decision that removed the main opposition party’s leadership, according to traders familiar with the transactions. The foreign-exchange sales slowed later in the session after an initial heavy bout of selling, the traders added, asking not to be identified. State banks in Turkey routinely step in to defend the currency during periods of market volatility on behalf of the central bank. The latest interventions mark the biggest such step since Turkey’s foreign reserves declined by $43.4 billion in March — the largest monthly drop on record — as the Iran war triggered global selloffs in emerging-market assets and piled pressure on the lira. The central bank typically does not announce the interventions and did not respond to a request for comment on Thursday’s sales. Read More: Turkey Court Unseats Opposition Head, Triggering Market Rout Turkish equities slumped as well, with the benchmark Borsa Istanbul 100 Index tumbling 6.1% at the close. The selloff was severe enough to trigger a market-wide circuit breaker. Risk indicators deteriorated, with Turkey’s five-year credit default swaps climbing 12 basis points to 253 basis points, signaling rising investor concern over the country’s outlook. The lira was little changed at 45.6133 per dollar as of 7:25 p.m. in Istanbul. The arrest last year of opposition Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu , seen as the biggest political rival to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan , forced authorities to spend more than $50 billion of reserves to stem the fallout.

Drive north from New York City and into the Hudson valley. Take Exit 17 and follow Route 7 as it heads south along the river, past the abandoned shipyard and the aptly named Cadet Motel. Hang a left after a few miles, wind up a long driveway and you’ll arrive at New York Military Academy. It’s open, barely. Hundreds of students used to attend this place, but that number has dwindled to a few dozen; most of the 50 or so buildings on campus have fallen into disrepair and many seem entirely abandoned. Come here after dark and you’ll start to feel a little uneasy. A bit further down the main drive, past the boarded-up houses where faculty and staff used to live, there’s a forlorn soccer field. The school hasn’t fielded a team for years, but this place holds some importance. On it, Donald Trump took some of his first steps toward becoming what some have called the United States’ first “soccer president”. It’s a title affixed to Trump in no small part because he was in office in 2018 when the US, along with Canada and Mexico, was awarded the 2026 World Cup. Somewhat unexpectedly, he’ll also be in office when the tournament kicks off this summer. He has welcomed international and domestic club teams to the White House and presented the Club World Cup trophy to Chelsea last summer before awkwardly lingering around on stage. Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney and Lionel Messi have all visited with Trump; the latter was made into wallpaper while Trump went on a rant about the war in Iran. Fifa’s president Gianni Infantino at times seems glued to the US president. View image in fullscreen A photo of the New York Military Academy soccer team, featuring Donald Trump. Photograph: courtesy of Pablo Maurer It’s debatable whether Trump truly cares about the sport itself or simply likes the attention it brings him. But it’s a fact that in 1963/64, his senior year of high school at NYMA, Trump played on the school’s soccer team. Peter Ticktin, a teammate of Trump’s who sometimes describe...

hapabapa Eli Lilly ( LLY ) shares are in the green on Thursday after the Indiana-based drugmaker posted late-stage trial results indicating that retatrutide, its next-gen obesity therapy, caused up to 28% weight loss on average over 80 weeks . The once-weekly injectable belongs to an emerging class of obesity therapies developed by companies including Lilly’s ( LLY ) main rival, Novo Nordisk ( NVO ), targeting GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon triple hormone receptors. They are believed to cause greater weight loss compared to GLP-1 agonists such as Novo’s ( NVO ) semaglutide and Lilly’s ( LLY ) dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor co-agonist, tirzepatide, marketed as Wegovy and Zepbound for weight loss, respectively. The triple agonists gained attention after Novo ( NVO ) posted late-stage trial data in February, indicating that its next-gen weight loss therapy, CagriSema, a combination of semaglutide and amylin analog, cagrilintide, trailed LLY’s Zepbound in a Phase 3 trial. Novo’s ( NVO ) triple agonist UBT251, developed in partnership with China’s United Laboratories ( ULIHF ), has yet to reach late-stage development. However, in two Phase 2 trials for Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight, the once-weekly injectable has caused up to 10% and 20% weight loss on average over 24 weeks, respectively, according to data readouts this year. UBT251 also indicated a safety and tolerability profile consistent with findings from clinical trials for other gut-hormone-based therapies, Novo ( NVO ) and United Laboratories ( ULIHF ) said without disclosing additional data. Retatrutide showed a largely similar tolerability profile, according to Thursday's readout from Lilly's ( LLY ) TRIUMPH-1 Phase 3 study, which enrolled more than 2,000 obese or overweight adults with at least one weight-related condition, excluding diabetes. However, as many as 11% of patients who received the drug at the highest 12 mg dose discontinued due to adverse events such as nausea, vomiting, and...

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, which is situated on the Ile Notre Dame in the St Lawrence Seaway alongside downtown Montreal, is a very different track from Miami. Although still a street-style circuit, the weather is much cooler and the tyres do not suffer anywhere near as much from overheating. Russell feels much more comfortable when the tyres are working in their natural temperature window, rather than always on the verge of being too hot. The 28-year-old won the first race of the season in Australia, and lost out on victories in China and Japan through bad luck. Miami was the first weekend of the year on which Antonelli had had a decisive advantage. "I see my competitor as myself because I know if I take all of my boxes, I can be at the top, and in Miami that didn't happen and I know my struggles on a track like Miami I just need to focus on that and that's the approach I've had the last few years, against Lewis, against Kimi last year. At the moment, I'm just really focused on giving the most of myself and my team and the rest sorts itself out. "It's still so early days and I know how to deal with it. It's not the first time in my career that I've had a bad race or two but in this sport it does change so quickly one week you have a tough race and the next week you come back and everything goes back to normal." Mercedes have a major upgrade on their car for this race, which Russell said they expected would be a "decent" step forward for their car, which has won all four grands prix this season. Rivals McLaren, Red Bull and Ferrari all had major upgrades at the last race which brought them closer to Mercedes. "We hope (it's) as big as the upgrade was for the likes of McLaren and Ferrari in Miami," Russell said, "but as we know there are no guarantees. We know what it says on paper I don't see any reason why it shouldn't translate but stranger things have happened."

Financial software company Intuit (INTU) is looking to be the latest to trim its workforce. In an internal email circulated among employees, CEO Sasan Goodarzi has reportedly said that the move to shed about 3,000 jobs in the company is being done to operate more effectively and focus on assimilating AI across its products and services. To put it simply, AI may do the jobs of these people, and the company will save costs. Consequently, the shares should have reacted positively, right? Wrong. INTU stock ended 4% lower in yesterday's trading session. About Intuit Founded in 1983, Intuit develops financial and tax software for consumers, small businesses, accountants, and self-employed workers. Its popular products include TurboTax, QuickBooks, CreditKarma, and MailChimp. Notably, across its ecosystem, there are about 100 million customers worldwide. Valued at a market cap of $106 billion, INTU is down 53% on a YTD basis. The stock also offers a dividend yield of 1.19%, and has been raising dividends consecutively over the past 14 years. Further, with a payout ratio of about 20%, dividend raises have more room to run. So, will the lightening of its employee list jolt INTU shares back toward an upward path? Let's find out. Beat & Raise Q3 Intuit's Q3 was marked by a beat and raise, with both revenue and earnings exceeding Street estimates. Total revenues went up by 10% from the previous year to $8.6 billion. All key products, except ProTax, saw their revenues increase when compared to the prior year. While TurboTax and Credit Karma revenues were up 7% and 15% to $4.4 billion and $631 million, respectively, ProTax revenue at $278 million remained flat. Earnings rose by 10% in the same period to $12.80 per share, surpassing the consensus estimate of $12.57 per share. Notably, this was the ninth consecutive quarter of earnings beat from a company that has increased its revenue and earnings at impressive CAGRs of 16.24% and 22.9%, respectively. Moreover, the company raised ...

Harry Maguire has announced he has been overlooked by Thomas Tuchel for the England World Cup squad. The Manchester United centre-half had hoped to be included in the 26-man party for the tournament this summer, which Tuchel will name at Wembley on Friday morning. Maguire has excelled for United since Michael Carrick took over as the head coach in mid-January and was called up by Tuchel for the March international programme. The 33-year-old started against Uruguay and came on as a late substitute against Japan, when he brought a threat on set pieces. But Tuchel has decided to prioritise other players in the position. He is expected to select Ezri Konsa, Marc Guéhi and John Stones, despite the latter’s lack of football for Manchester City; he has made only four appearances since 2 December. Also in the frame are Trevoh Chalobah, Jarell Quansah, Dan Burn and Levi Colwill, who has impressed for Chelsea since his return at the beginning of the month from a season-wrecking anterior cruciate ligament rupture.

I’ve loved nothing more than putting that shirt on and representing my country over the years. I wish the players all the best this summer.” Tuchel’s comments about Maguire after the Uruguay game bear a reprint. “I got exactly what I thought: solid central defender play,” Tuchel said. “Very good on the ball, very calm...

The founders of StraightPath Venture Partners LLC were sentenced to years in prison for defrauding investors who gave them $386 million to supposedly invest cheaply in hot companies about to go public. Michael Castillero, Francine Lanaia and Brian Martinsen were convicted last year of grossly inflating the value of the shares they acquired in private firms and charging investors other hidden fees, ultimately skimming $75 million for themselves. Castillero, 48, was sentenced Wednesday to 11 years in prison. Martinsen, 49, and Lanaia, 61, were respectively given 10 years and eight years behind bars. Manhattan US Attorney Jay Clayton announced the sentences in a statement. “The federal prison sentences imposed today send a message that private market frauds will be met with vigorous criminal prosecution,” Clayton said Wednesday. Between 2017 and 2022, the three used boiler-room-style call centers to sign up more than 2,000 investors who thought they were investing at a favorable rate in companies that appeared poised for successful initial public offerings at the time. Federal prosecutors didn’t identify the companies in their indictment, but a parallel Securities and Exchange Commission suit said they included Impossible Foods Inc. and Kraken . Castillero and Lanaia also concealed from investors that they had previously been barred from the securities industry by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority . Straightpath and its funds are being administered by a court-appointed receiver who is seeking to return remaining assets to the investors. As part of their sentences, the three were ordered to pay $115 million in restitution. The case is US v. Castillero, 23-cr-00622, US District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

OpenAI has claimed a further advance in AI reasoning after its technology successfully tackled an 80-year-old maths problem. The company behind ChatGPT said it had made a breakthrough with a challenge first posed by Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős in 1946: the planar unit distance problem. The question posed by Erdős is simple to explain. If you take a sheet of paper and add some dots, how many pairs can be the same distance apart? Erdős proposed the number would rise only slightly faster than the number of dots themselves. OpenAI’s model concluded otherwise by drawing on different branches of mathematics to uncover a family of arrangements that break the limit in Erdős’s conjecture. “For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids,” OpenAI wrote on X. “An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better.” While the work has excited mathematicians, the broader problem remains unsolved because the AI did not come up with a new answer for how fast the pairs of dots rise, but merely showed that the limit Erdős proposed was too low. OpenAI, which is preparing to float on the US stock market, said the calculations had been made by a general-purpose reasoning model – which breaks down problems into smaller steps – rather than a system trained specifically for mathematics. The startup has been tripped up before by its attempts to solve Erdős’s problems, having hailed a supposed breakthrough last year that was in fact based on already existing literature absorbed by the model. This time, OpenAI’s work has been validated by mathematicians, including Thomas Bloom, a mathematician who maintains the Erdős problems website and criticised OpenAI’s prior Erdős claims. Bloom co-authored a companion paper to OpenAI’s blog post flagging the Erdős achievement. Bloom wrote that the AI system had attained its results by “persevering down paths that a human may...

BING-JHEN HONG Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries ( KWHIY ) ( KWHIF ) will collaborate with Nvidia ( NVDA ) to develop solutions that integrate robotics with physical AI and will establish a joint development center in California, Nikkei reported. Medical and mobility fields will be the initial focus of the partnership. Kawasaki Heavy has developed robot assistants for doctors and nurses and is also developing a quadruped robot, the report added . Medical support robots move on wheels and use arms to carry specimens and perform other functions. They will use Nvidia's AI technology to enable more advanced tasks, according to the report. Nvidia's simulation technology will be used for Kawasaki's Corleo, a four-legged personal mobility robot under development. AI will also be used for control and environmental recognition. As part of this initiative, Kawasaki is opening a joint development center on Thursday in San Jose, California. The center will house industrial robots and will be used for demonstrations and development with U.S. companies, the report noted. Kawasaki plans to hire AI engineers and other staff locally and expand the center's headcount to dozens of people within a few years, the report added. Besides Nvidia, Kawasaki will work with Analog Devices ( ADI ), Microsoft ( MSFT ), and Fujitsu at the center. Kawasaki will also expand collaboration with AI development companies, universities, and research institutions, the report noted. Nvidia, Kawasaki, Microsoft, Analog Devices, and Fujitsu did not immediately respond to Seeking Alpha's request for comment. In February, Kawasaki had set up a research and development hub for medical robots in Strasbourg, France. Going forward, the company will accelerate efforts to address physical AI at three places globally, including Japan, the report added. Kawasaki will use cutting-edge technology in the U.S. and conduct demonstrations in France and Japan, the report noted. The robotics business is focused on robots inte...

Of those who spoke to the BBC one former gymnast, who won a five-figure payout after developing an eating disorder due to the "culture in the sport", says British Gymnastics' approach to victims of abuse was "a complete failure". Laura - not her real name - said she suffered a year of being bullied and insulted by coaches, being weighed twice a day and pressured to lose weight at just 12 years old. The 19-year-old subsequently developed anorexia, bulimia and depression - something she and her family blame firmly on her treatment by her gymnastics coaches - and missed almost five months of school. In October 2023, Laura's case was heard and the ICP panel issued the lead coach at Laura's former club with a warning, due to their "serious concerns" about the approach to weighing gymnasts at club. However, despite winning a payout from British Gymnastics, some of the allegations about her treatment were not upheld. "I feel that the ICP process failed me and many other gymnasts," Laura says. "Whilst the compensation I've received through the civil case has proved there was wrongdoing, all I ever wanted was for my coaches to accept accountability and acknowledge that their words and actions were the reason I became ill." Law firm Bolt Burdon Kemp, who represented Laura, says it has more than 40 ongoing claims against British Gymnastics. Laura's mother added: "The whole thing was a shambles. Ultimately, at the heart of this are children - children who ended up with eating disorders or self-harmed because of this culture in the sport." The BBC originally covered Nicole Pavier's story in 2020. The now 30-year-old said she was weighed every day of her gymnastics career and developed serious eating disorders as a result. After years of waiting, the paediatric nurse went through the ICP process last year. "It was horrific," she said. "I wasn't allowed anyone in the room to support me and I wasn't allowed to produce witness statements to corroborate my story. I felt blindsided. "...
