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...

Fellaini accuses Man United of big mistake in contract wrangle.

The Belgium international has suggested he could leave the club after they failed to renew his contract in a timely fashion
Marouane Fellaini has suggested Manchester United could pay the price for failing to renew his contract last year.
The Belgium international's deal at Old Trafford expires at the end of the season and there has been no decisive breakthrough in talks with the club over an extension.
Fellaini – who has struggled for game time in 2017-18 largely due to a knee ligament injury – came off the bench to score the winner against Arsenal on Sunday, after which manager Jose Mourinho claimed an agreement over fresh terms was "almost there".
The 30-year-old says he has not yet made a final decision, though, and has accused United of failing to resolve the contract dispute when they had more time on their side.
"The whole staff are doing everything for me to stay," he told Sport/Voetbalmagazine. "The club didn't renew my contract last year. Now, I'm in a strong position, especially since Mourinho has said he wants to keep me.
"Last year, I went to the coach and said I wanted a new contract. I then had a second meeting, but I won't ask 10 times. Afterwards, I became important for the team...
"A good player costs at least 50 million euros. The club knows they went wrong there.
"If I don't have physical problems, I will go to the World Cup. Afterwards, we'll see. I haven't made a decision yet."
Fellaini has been linked with a free transfer to clubs in Europe, including Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Besiktas.
A move to the Chinese Super League has also been suggested and the former Everton man admits he could be tempted to head to Asia.
"I'm open to everything. I wouldn't have a problem with life in China. I love to discover other places and other cultures. And I won't go there alone. If I go, it's with the family.
"I'm now 30 years old, at the end of a contract and negotiating with Manchester United. There are several clubs showing interest. I'm waiting for what will happen."

Saturated Fats vs. Unsaturated Fats.

Saturated Fats vs. Unsaturated Fats Diffen  ›  Food  ›  Diet & Nutrition The human body needs both  saturated fats  and  unsaturated fats  to remain healthy. Most dietary recommendations suggest that, of the daily intake of fat, a higher proportion should be from unsaturated fats, as they are thought to promote  good cholesterol  and help prevent cardiovascular disease, whereas an overabundance of saturated fats is thought to promote bad cholesterol. However,  a few studies  have found that little evidence for a strong link between the consumption of saturated fat and cardiovascular disease. Note: It is technically more accurate to call saturated and unsaturated fats types of  fatty acids , as it is specifically the  fatty acid  found in a fat that is either saturated or unsaturated. However, referring to fatty acids as fats is common. Comparison chart Saturated Fats versus Unsaturated F...
