World markets dive as Trump sparks trade, North Korea worries

Global stocks sank Wednesday after US President Donald Trump said he was not satisfied with talks that are aimed at averting a trade war with China. Equities were also dented by poor eurozone economic data, and as Trump cast doubt on a planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “Trump (is) continuing to drive uncertainty over global trade,” said analyst Joshua Mahony at trading firm IG. “European markets are following their Asian counterparts lower, as a pessimistic tone from Trump is compounded by downbeat economic data,” he added. Markets had surged Monday after US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He said they had agreed to pull back from imposing threatened tariffs on billions of dollars of goods, and continue talks on a variety of trade issues. However, Trump has declared that he was “not satisfied” with the status of the talks, fuelling worries that the world’s top two economies could still slug out an economically pain

Halep powers to number one and Beijing final.

Simona Halep surged to number one in the world for the first time and into the final of the China Open as she beat Latvia’s Jelena Ostapenko 6-2, 6-4. The Romanian’s ousting of Spaniard Garbine Muguruza at the top of the women’s game will be officially confirmed next week when the latest rankings are released. For Halep, who went into the semi-final on Beijing’s outdoor hard courts as world number two, victory was revenge after Ostapenko won their duel in the French Open final earlier this year. The 26-year-old Halep, who is yet to taste Grand Slam success, will face either Caroline Garcia of France or Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic in Sunday’s final in the Chinese capital. She was always in control against the world number eight Ostapenko and put herself on the way to victory when she broke the talented 20-year-old in the first game of the first set.

Man arrested, people injured in crash in London: police.

Police arrested a man near London’s Natural History Museum on Saturday after a vehicle apparently drove into pedestrians, injuring a number of people.

Armed police were at the scene, and a video posted on Twitter showed a man being held down on the road next to a black car that appeared to have crashed.

Bayern stopper Neuer could be out till March.

Bayern Munich and Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said Saturday he could now be sidelined until March because he is taking longer than expected to recover from a foot operation. Neuer was initially expecting to return in January, but he told the club’s TV station: “The wound in the foot is healing and it could take up to six months. “It always depends on the healing process of course,” he added. Neuer, 31, said however his rehabilitation was going well “and I’m very positive and I think it’s going to get better”. He fractured his left foot in training in September, just weeks after returning to action following a fracture of the same foot in April during the Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid. The prolonged absence of Neuer, the club’s captain, is another setback for Bayern who on Friday announced veteran coach Jupp Heynckes was returning to the club for a fourth stint to steady the ship following the sacking of Carlo Ancelotti.

Capital market shareholders task SEC, NSE on penalties to boost new listing.

Capital market shareholders on Saturday called on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) to review the penalties imposed on quoted companies to attract new listing. They made the plea at an Investors Clinic Programme to mark IOSCO World Investor Week 2017 organised by SEC in Lagos. According to them, incessant penalties on companies was discouraging companies from seeking quotation on the nation’s bourse, thereby affecting the growth and development of the market. In his comments, Mr Sunny Nwosu, the National Coordinator Emeritus, Independent Shareholders Association of Nigeria (ISAN), said that there was need for friendly policies and regulation by the capital market regulators. Nwosu said lack of proper compensation to investors that lost their funds during the market meltdown contributed to poor investor confidence in the market, whereas brokers were given forbearance package. He also frowned at the commission’s move to

Trump rolls back Obamacare provision for free birth control.

US President Donald Trump’s administration annulled on Friday an Obamacare provision that obliged employer health plans to pay for contraception, potentially stripping free birth control from millions of women. The move extends to all commercial enterprises an exemption already given to religious institutions. Rights groups, physicians, Democrats and ordinary citizens were outraged, and #HandsOffMyBC was a top trending hashtag on Twitter while the American Civil Liberties Union threatened a lawsuit. But the White House insisted it was a matter of religious freedom. The ruling expands “exemptions to protect moral convictions for certain entities and individuals whose health plans are subject to a mandate of contraceptive coverage” under Obamacare, a note published by the US Department of Health and Human Services said. Millions of American women who had the cost of contraception reimbursed could be affected by the decision, which conservative groups had been seeking since

See what Hitler thought About Muslims. .

In 1941, a Harvard University anthropology professor named Carleton S. Coon traveled to Morocco, ostensibly to carry out field research. His true mission was to smuggle weapons to anti-German rebels in the Atlas Mountains, on behalf of the Office of Strategic Services, the wartime precursor to the CIA . The following year, as the United States prepared to invade North Africa, Coon and an OSS colleague, Gordon Brown, drafted propaganda pamphlets intended to soften up local reaction to the coming swarms of GI s. They settled on a religious idiom: “Praise be unto the only God…. The American Holy Warriors have arrived…to fight the great Jihad of Freedom.” The pamphlet was signed “Roosevelt.” Nazi Germany’s leaders also harbored half-baked ideas about messaging to North Africa’s Muslims. Heinrich Himmler was the Third Reich’s most influential advocate of the instrumental use of Islam in war strategy. In the spring of 1943, as Field Marshal Erwin Rommel’s army in North Africa stumbled to d

Nigeria vs Zambia: Five players that can ruin Super Eagles’ day

When the group stage of the World cup qualifiers in Africa kicked off last year in October, the Zambians would not have believed that they would be in this position after they lost their first match to Nigeria at home. They have since turned their fortunes around and are possibly two wins away from a maiden appearance at the Mundial. They are high on confidence going into this weekend’s game against Nigeria after recording consecutive wins against Algeria, home and away. One thing the Zambians did was to draft in a lot of youngsters from their impressive youth teams into the main national team and the result has been amazing. They also haven’t lost a game away from home since the start of the qualifying series and would want to continue in that form to keep their chances of grabbing the group’s sole ticket alive. A defeat will signal the end of that dream and they will be keen to avoid it and keep it alive for as long as they can. The Chipolopolo (Copper bullets) will be co

Merkel confirms ready to govern with liberals and Greens

German Chancellor Angela Merkel confirmed Saturday she would start talks with liberals and Greens to try to form a new coalition government after last month’s election. Merkel won a fourth term in the September 24 vote but the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) poached one million votes from her conservative bloc, leaving her without an obvious coalition to lead Europe’s largest economy. She has already said she would seek exploratory talks on forming an alliance between her CDU/CSU bloc and two smaller parties, the pro-business Free Democrats (FDP) and the ecologist Greens. Merkel said in a speech in the eastern city of Dresden on Saturday that the negotiations would be “difficult”, but added: “I hope the coalition will fall into place.” Such an alliance — which would be unprecedented in Germany at the national level — has been dubbed the “Jamaica coalition” because the colours of the three parties match the black, yellow and green of the Caribbean country’s flag.
