ATP players handed record £13.5m profit-sharing bonus
Men's tennis players will pocket a record $18.3m (£13.5m) in profit-sharing bonuses from the 2024 season as the ATP stepped up its efforts to forge a more sustainable and financially aligned future for the sport. The bonus amount, a 177 per cent increase on the previous season's payout, will be distributed to players based on performance at the nine ATP 1000 tournaments, which rank just below the four Grand Slams in prestige. "This is exactly what profit sharing was designed to do: ensure that players and tournaments share equally in the sport's financial upside," ATP Chairman Andrea Gaudenzi said on Thursday. "The $18.3m is a huge milestone. For us, it's proof that strengthening the premium product and aligning interests creates value. "We're proud to be strengthening our partnership and building a stronger, more sustainable ATP Tour." The profit-sharing plan, introduced in 2022, splits profits generated at ATP Masters 1000 events - above onsite base prize money - equally between players and tournaments and is a cornerstone of the tour's OneVision strategic plan. Profit-sharing helped push ATP player compensation to a record $261m (£192.7m) for the 2024 season for a total of $378m (£279.2m) when combined with Grand Slam prize money. The men's elite body added that it was on track to deliver more compensation records, including $28.5m (£21m) in Challenger Tour prize money and a $3m (£2.2m) ATP 500 bonus pool. The expansion of most of the Masters events to 96-player draws had increased earning opportunities for players, widening the number of those able to make a sustainable living from the sport, the ATP added. It said there was a "wave of infrastructure investment" as Madrid, Rome, Cincinnati, Shanghai and Paris, among other venues, had upgraded facilities to enhance the experience for players and spectators.

Wall St slips as hot producer inflation data dampens rate-cut bets
Aug 14 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes declined on Thursday, after a hotter-than-expected producer prices report dampened investor expectations of potential interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve this year. A Labor Department report showed the Producer Price Index rose 3.3% on an annual basis in July, higher than the 2.5% gain expected by economists polled by Reuters. On a monthly basis, it rose 0.9%, compared with an estimated 0.2% rise. Traders lowered their Fed rate-cut expectations for the rest of the year to about 58 basis points, according to data compiled by LSEG, compared with around 63 bps before the report. But they are still fully pricing in a quarter-percentage-point cut in September. "It's sending a mixed message about the economy," said Peter Andersen, founder of Andersen Capital Management in Boston. "We have been too anxious to draw a conclusion that the economy is fine, it's not overheated. But this wholesale data does show that perhaps there is some inflation working and we shouldn't be so quick to conclude that we need to cut interest rates." At 09:42 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI), opens new tab fell 164.29 points, or 0.37%, to 44,757.98, the S&P 500 (.SPX), opens new tab lost 16.84 points, or 0.26%, to 6,449.74 and the Nasdaq Composite (.IXIC), opens new tab lost 22.69 points, or 0.10%, to 21,690.45. Recent data reflecting labor market weakness and a moderate rise in consumer prices had strengthened expectations that the central bank will potentially lower interest rates next month. However, Thursday's report fanned concerns that U.S. tariffs on imports could start to impact prices in the coming months and dampen a rally in U.S. stocks that had helped the benchmark S&P 500 (.SPX), opens new tab and tech-heavy Nasdaq (.IXIC), opens new tab log record highs over the past two sessions. On Thursday, nine of the 11 S&P 500 sectors declined, with materials (.SPLRCM), opens new tab, down 1.2%, falling the most. Rate-sensitive small-caps (.RUT), opens new tab and housing stocks (.HGX), opens new tab also dropped more than 1% each. Separate data showed the number of Americans filing new applications for jobless benefits fell last week amid low layoffs. A report also showed San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly pushed back against the need for a 50-basis-point interest rate cut next month, a day after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said an aggressive half-point cut was possible. Cisco Systems (CSCO.O), opens new tab lost 1% after the network equipment manufacturer's broadly in-line forecast did little to encourage investors. Deere & Co (DE.N), opens new tab fell 8% after the farm-equipment maker reported a lower quarterly profit and tightened its annual profit forecast, while Tapestry (TPR.N), opens new tab plunged 17.6% after the Coach handbag maker forecast annual profit below estimates. Both companies warned of tariffs impacting their business. Later in the day, investors will also tune into remarks from St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, a Federal Open Market Committee voting member this year. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 5.05-to-1 ratio on the NYSE and by a 3.38-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 posted four new 52-week highs and no new lows while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 24 new highs and 31 new lows.

India wants US ties based on mutual respect, says its arms purchases are on course
NEW DELHI, Aug 14 (Reuters) - India said on Thursday that it hoped relations with the United States would move forward based on mutual respect and shared interests, seeking to temper worries that ties were headed downhill in the aftermath of high tariffs imposed by Washington. A U.S. defence policy team will be in New Delhi this month for talks with Indian officials and its arms purchases from the U.S. are on course despite the strain in ties, the Indian foreign ministry said. A new friendship built between the two countries has hit a rough patch after President Donald Trump raised tariffs on Indian goods to 50% last week from an earlier 25% saying it was a penalty for India's continued imports of Russian oil. New Delhi has accused the U.S. of double standards in singling it out for Russian oil imports and called the tariffs unfair, unjustified and unreasonable. At the same time, it has also indicated that the warming of ties that began at the turn of the century covers a wide range of areas and should not be seen only through the prism of trade, although it hopes that trade talks will continue and result in a deal. "This partnership has weathered several transitions and we hope that the relationship will continue to move forward based on mutual respect and shared interests," Indian foreign ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal told a regular media briefing. Purchases of military equipment from Washington were on course, Jaiswal said, adding that a U.S. defence policy team was expected in Delhi this month. Reuters reported last week that India has put on hold its plans to procure new U.S. weapons and aircraft and that a planned trip to Washington by the Indian defence minister had been cancelled. The Indian government subsequently said reports of a pause in the talks were wrong.
