Oil settles near 7-week lows, focus shifts to economy
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Oil prices settled on Thursday near their lowest level in seven-weeks, narrowly mixed and under pressure from weaker global demand, rising inventories and fading hopes for a quick cut in U.S. interest rates. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures fell 5 cents to settle at $78.95 a barrel, the lowest since March 12. Both benchmarks closed below their 200-day moving average, which is the key technical indicator of a bear market shift in crude oil prices, StoneX oil analyst Alex Hodes said.

Grocery co-ops an alternative to corporate grocers amid anger, mistrust: experts
These days, Bruce Woodrow gets most of his groceries at one of two places: Costco, and a small grocery co-operative nestled in an alley in the heart of Toronto. The retired lawyer — along with many Canadians over the past couple of years — had been growing more concerned with the grocery industry and the profits it was turning as food prices climbed. Woodrow joined Karma Co-op as a member last spring and now volunteers on the store's finance committee. "The money, I know, is going to make an ope

Canadian miner Hudbay sees BHP's bid for Anglo boosting copper assets
The CEO of Canadian miner Hudbay Minerals said BHP Group's $39 billion offer for Anglo American has increased the valuation of copper assets and could underscore companies' willingness to pay a premium to buy existing copper mines. Hudbay expects to launch a formal sale process for a minority stake in its Arizona Copper World project in the United States later this year after already holding talks with companies. BHP offered to buy Anglo last week, though Anglo rejected the proposal that would create the world's biggest copper miner, saying it undervalues the company.

Google and Apple now threatened by the US antitrust laws that helped build their technology empires
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The U.S. Justice Department's double-barreled antitrust attack on Google's dominant search and Apple's trendsetting iPhone is reviving memories of the epic battle that hobbled Microsoft before it roared back to yet again become the world's most valuable company. The parallels to the Justice Department's landmark antitrust case in 1998 could provide a window into the potential breakthroughs that could be unleashed if regulators succeed in their attempts to crack down on Googl

UPDATE 1-US appeals court says kids' climate lawsuit must be dismissed
A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday said a lawsuit filed by 21 young people claiming the U.S. government's energy policies violate their rights to be protected from climate change must be dismissed, this time for good. A three-judge panel of the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said in a five-page order that the case should have been dismissed after the court first weighed in on the matter in 2020, when it said courts could not mandate broad policy changes that are better left to Congress and the executive branch. While the young plaintiffs have since trimmed the lawsuit to seek only a declaration that their rights have been violated, the 9th Circuit said lawsuits must address harms that can be remedied by courts and such a declaration would not directly help the plaintiffs.

Could a 4-day workweek increase productivity?
According to a February 2023 Future Forum global survey, 42% of workers feel burned out. Employers are increasingly seeking opportunities to prioritize their employees' work-life balance. 4 Day Week Global Research Director Alex Pang joins Wealth! to discuss whether a four-day workweek could be the solution. Pang explains that a reduced workweek benefits both the employer and the employee, as productivity and retention rise while overall burnout decreases. "What we're finding is there are ways of using technology better, of making improvements in things like meetings...that allow you to create time that you can give back to people while also making work time itself more productive and effective," he tells Brad Smith. Pang also notes that a four-day workweek would not affect employee pay, allowing them to receive the same salary under reduced working hours. "The idea is that you're doing the same work," he explains, adding that it also serves as "a great incentive" to find efficiencies and innovate.
