Trump's Tariff to Test India's Central Bank: Decision Guide
Before Trump's announcement, most economists had expected no change in rates following the governor's cautious stance in the June policy meeting. Now, some of them — including Soumya Kanti Ghosh of State Bank of India Ltd. and Dhiraj Nim of Australia & New Zealand Banking Group — are forecasting a quarter-point rate cut to shield Asia's third-largest economy from tariff-related uncertainty.

Newsmax agrees to pay $67M settlement in defamation case over 2020 election claims
DENVER (AP) — The conservative network Newsmax will pay $67 million to settle a lawsuit accusing it of defaming a voting equipment company by spreading lies about President Donald Trump's 2020 election loss, according to documents filed Monday. The settlement comes after Fox News paid $787.5 million to settle a similar lawsuit in 2023 and Newsmax paid what court papers describe as $40 million to settle a libel lawsuit from a different voting machine manufacturer, Smartmatic, which also was a target of pro-Trump conspiracy theories on the network. Delaware Superior Court Judge Eric Davis ruled earlier that Newsmax did indeed defame Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems by airing false information about the company and its equipment. But Davis left it to a jury to eventually decide whether that was done with malice, and, if so, how much Dominion deserved from Newsmax in damages. Newsmax and Dominion reached the settlement before the trial could take place. The settlement was disclosed by Newsmax on Monday in a new filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. It said the deal was reached Friday. The disclosure came as Trump vowed in a social media post Monday to eliminate mail-in ballots and voting machines such as those supplied by Dominion and other companies. It was unclear how the president could achieve that. Nicholas Riccardi, The Associated Press Sign in to access your portfolio

(Reuters) -Embattled Chinese property developer Country Garden said on Monday it had reached an agreement with a core group of bank creditors that holds 49% of its offshore debt, marking another step in its $14.1 billion restructuring plan. Once China's largest developer, the company defaulted on $11 billion in offshore bonds in late 2023, adding to a sector-wide crisis that had already seen high-profile failures, including of China Evergrande Group. Shop Top Mortgage Rates Personalized rates in minutes Your Path to Homeownership A quicker path to financial freedom Country Garden, seeking to slash its offshore debt burden by 78%, said holders representing 77% of its bond value had accepted its restructuring proposal. A restructuring proposal normally requires support from more than 75% in creditor value to pass. The deal follows the backing it won from a key bondholder group in April. Country Garden remains the subject to a liquidation petition, with a court hearing scheduled for January 2026. The developer said it was working with both bondholders and bank creditors to complete the documentation for the restructuring, which it expects to finalise by the end of 2025.
