Futures Rebound From Latest Chinese Regulatory Scare As Tencent Crashes US equity futures rebounded from the latest China regulatory scare which saw shares of Tencent plunge as much as 11% after Chinese state media criticized online gaming as “opium for the mind,” fueling investor concerns that the companies’ popular games could be swept up into a broader regulatory crackdown. As China watcher Victor Shih noted, this showed that " even when you comply with every party dictate, you can be labeled an ''opium'' or ''poison ''." But even though Eminis dipped briefly below 4380 when the Tencent news hit overnight, they have since rebounded and were trading up 15.50 or 0.35%, rising to 4,395. Dow futures were up 160 points or 0.461% and Nasdaq futs added 0.08% or 11 points.

Summary List Placement Members of Congress routinely trade stocks, buying and selling the shares of companies that often have significant business before the federal government — and sometimes spend lots of money to lobby lawmakers. Insider dug through congressional financial disclosure records federal lawmakers filed in recent days. Here are the latest highlights from what we've found. Maloney's disclosure delay After Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney 's mother died, the congressman inherited shares of eight stocks, including those of Apple Inc., Microsoft Corporation, alcohol conglomerate Diageo PLC, and investment management company BlackRock Inc. Total value: $11,051. Last June, he sold the stocks. But Maloney didn't publicly disclose those stock sales until last week. That's a potential problem because federal law mandates that members of Congress publicly disclose stock trades in a "periodic transaction report" within 30 to 45 days of making a trade, depending on the kind of trade. Late filings of this sort can expose a member of Congress to an investigation and potential fine . "During preparation for the filer's [financial disclosure] report, it was determined that these 8 transactions totaling $11k should have been reported on a [periodic transaction report]," Maloney wrote on April 2 to the Clerk of the House of Representatives. "As soon as this oversight was discovered, this filing was submitted to provide full transparency into that sale." Read more: Democratic Rep.

Australia Pacific LNG wants environmental approval to drill across nearly half a million hectares of central and south-west Queensland Australia’s largest east coast gas producer has sought federal environmental approval to drill up to 7,700 new gas wells in Queensland, prompting concern from environmentalists due to the project’s sheer size and its proximity to two national parks. Australia Pacific LNG – a joint venture between Origin, ConocoPhillips and Sinopec – has lodged a referral under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act to expand its “Gas Supply Security Project” and drill across an additional 476,492ha of central and south-west Queensland.

(Bloomberg) -- Bitcoin’s massive rally over the past year means it’s only getting worse for the environment.The energy used by the network of computers that power the digital coin is comparable to that of many developed countries and rivals the emissions from major fossil-fuel users and producers such as American Airlines Group Inc. and ConocoPhillips, according to a report by Bank of America Corp. The level of emissions, which have risen alongside a spike in Bitcoin’s price, have grown by more than 40 million tons in the past two years. And when the digital asset is trading around $50,000 -- which it’s done for much of this year -- it uses about 0.4% of global energy consumption.More worrisome, according to the report titled “Bitcoin’s dirty little secrets,” is that rising prices may mean Bitcoin’s energy consumption will soon rival that of some of the largest countries in the world.“What I’m concerned about is the pace of growth in the demand for energy,” Francisco Blanch, head of commodities and derivatives research at Bank of America and lead author of the report, said in an interview. “The rate of change is enormous -- nothing is growing at this pace in the energy world.”Bitcoin has skyrocketed into the limelight during the Covid-19 pandemic amid unprecedented fiscal and monetary stimulus that’s been a boon to more-speculative parts of the financial markets.
