The Western Canadian oil industry pumps more crude than most OPEC members but its production is located far from consuming markets and depends on a dizzying array of pipelines to connect that supply to end demand. At the same time, Canada's oil producers have had to navigate a quagmire of ever-shifting politics, policy, and regulations—especially concerning greenhouse gas emissions—that were widely seen to be restraining the sectors growth.To help me dig into the meat of this discussion, frame the current position of the massive oil sands industry today and where we're headed, as well as how to parse the ongoing negotiations between Canada's West and Ottawa, Rory is joined this week by Kevin Birn, Global Head, Center of Emissions Excellence and Chief Analyst, Canadian Oil Markets, at S&P Global.

1.Reserve Bank of India expectedly left its key interest rates unchanged on Wednesday as it waited for greater clarity on the impact of US tariffs as well as playout of earlier rate cuts and recent tax reductions. RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra, however, signalled scope for easing in the coming months to support the economy from any possible hit from US tariffs. The six-member monetary policy committee voted unanimously to keep the repurchase rate unchanged at 5.5 per cent and decided to continue with a "neutral" policy stance, giving it flexibility to move in either direction if needed in future. The rate-setting panel, headed by the central bank governor and comprising half of external experts, had cut interest rates by a total of 100 basis points this year before hitting a pause at its previous bimonthly meeting in August. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has decided to remove the ₹10,000 crore ceiling imposed on bank loans to each corporate entity and said if concentration risk increases, the regulator will take macro-prudential measures to tackle the same. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is also expected to soon issue Expected Credit Loss (ECL) norms for banks and all-India financial institutions to align Indian banks' provisioning norms with global standards. 2.South Korean electronics giant LG Electronics Inc will sell shares worth up to ₹11,628 crore through the initial public offer of its India arm, in which it will offload up to 10.2 crore shares. This values LG Electronics India at around $8.6 billion at the upper end of the price band of ₹1080-1140 per share. The company had obtained regulatory approval for the IPO in March but in April decided to call a halt to it, citing uncertain market conditions. The issue is open October 7-9, while the anchor book is open October 6. Investors can bid for a minimum of 13 shares. 3.India's manufacturing sector expansion lost some momentum last month, slipping to its weakest pace in four months but remaining strong, while factory gate prices surged at the fastest rate in nearly 12 years to combat mounting input costs, a survey showed on Wednesday. HSBC's India Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), compiled by S&P Global, fell to 57.7 in September from August's more robust 59.3 and lower than a preliminary reading of 58.5, reflecting the slowest improvement in operating conditions since May. 4.The government on Wednesday announced a 6.59 per cent increase in the minimum support price (MSP) for wheat to ₹2,585 per quintal for 2026-27 marketing year. The decision was taken in the Cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi here. Last year, wheat MSP was fixed at ₹2,425 per quintal for 2025-26 marketing year.

With Gerard away, Laurent invited another Irishman, Killian Daly, to dive into a technical—but critically important—topic: carbon accounting, power procurement, the GHG Protocol (v3), and the push for 24/7 green energy.For as long as we can remember, companies have tried to boost their green credentials—high rewards if successful, limited consequences if they fall short. To curb exaggerated claims, standards like the GHG Protocol emerged.Laurent was part of the original task force that developed the first version of the GHG Protocol. He recalls the pivotal moment that led to the creation of Scope 2: an infamous visit to the Tomago aluminium smelter in Australia back in 2000. Fast forward two decades, and Killian Daly—now leading the forward-thinking organization EnergyTag—is driving efforts to embed 24/7 carbon accounting into the upcoming revision of Scope 2 of the GHG Protocol.It's a crucial battle—for transparency, integrity, digital innovation, and sound economics. Opposing us are certain (not all) Big Tech companies, whose actual emissions far exceed their green marketing, and fossil fuel lobbyists doing their best to delay progress.But we are making progress—and we need your help. Join the fight. Reach out to Killian Daly at EnergyTag to see how you can get involved.https://energytag.org/And don't miss a major event: Green Energy Procurement – 10th October in London, hosted with Renewabl, S&P Global, and Shoosmiths.

Russia is one of the world's largest economies. It's a top energy exporter and a major supplier of wheat, fertilizers, wood, and metals. Since the invasion of Ukraine, Western governments have tried to squeeze Russia's revenues through unprecedented sanctions, price caps, and export controls. How Russia's economy responds to war and sanctions doesn't just matter for Moscow or Kyiv — it matters for the price of fuel in India, the cost of bread in Egypt, and the margins for factories in China.Understanding what's really going on in the Russian economy has become essential for anyone trying to design more painful sanctions or predict where global commodity prices are headed next. But what if our model of the Russian economy is fundamentally wrong?Nicholas Trickett is a political economist and writer who has spent years analysing the Russian economy.

Tricolor Auto Acceptance's chapter 7 bankruptcy filing on Sept. 10 has led to ratings downgrades for the financier and talks of potentially wider implications for the buy here, pay here and subprime markets.  The Texas-based buy here, pay here retailer and lender closed its dealerships in tandem with its filing for liquidation.  Since then, ratings agencies Kroll Bond Ratings Agency, Moody's Ratings and S&P Global placed their ratings on Tricolor securitization transactions under watch for potential downgrades. Backup servicer Vervent Inc. is also prepping to takeover servicing of Tricolor's portfolio.  Tricolor's closure could spark a ripple effect for small subprime lenders, especially after subprime lender Automotive Credit Corp. also indefinitely paused all originations Aug. 7. For floorplan lenders, bankruptcies can lead to hundreds of millions of dollars in losses and trigger efforts to recoup losses tied to remaining assets.  In this episode of the “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss the ramifications of Tricolor Auto's bankruptcy. 

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.In this video, we're ranking the moats of some of the most popular stocks in the market. A moat is what gives a company its competitive edge — the defense that keeps profits flowing and competitors at bay. Some names are strongholds with walls that look unbreakable, while others are stuck in open fields with no protection at all.We walk through the charts, fundamentals, and OVTLYR signals to show where these companies stand right now. The big takeaway: fundamentals don't pay unless the price trend is on your side.Here's what we cover:➡️ Tech Titans: Nvidia, AMD, Microsoft, Google, and Meta — which ones are true strongholds, and which are slipping as competition heats up?➡️ Consumer Favorites: Duolingo, Lululemon, Nike, and Netflix — from rapid growth to brand power, see who still has a moat and who's losing ground fast.➡️ Healthcare & Staples: UnitedHealth and Hims — one a giant with entrenched networks, the other a volatile up-and-comer with big potential but big risks.➡️ Financial Powerhouses: MSCI, S&P Global, and Mastercard — tollbooth businesses that collect revenue every time the market moves.➡️ Big Movers: Tesla, Palantir, Salesforce, and Target — companies with explosive potential, but trends that show how fragile a moat can be.Throughout the breakdown, you'll see how OVTLYR's Nine signals, trend templates, and fear-and-greed data cut through the noise. By focusing on price action instead of headlines, you can spot when a stock is setting up for a bullish run or breaking down into a bearish trend.The lesson is simple: growth, revenue, and fundamentals don't guarantee profits. The only thing that pays is catching the right trend at the right time. Whether you're trading Tesla's volatility, watching Nvidia's dominance, or questioning Netflix's staying power, this video shows you how to evaluate the moat and the market together.If you're ready to save time, make smarter trades, and reduce risk, this ranking will give you clarity on which companies are worth your attention and which ones may not deserve the hype.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Courage is Contagious: Voices Uniting Against Human Trafficking Synopsis: Teresa Velardi sits down with author Andi Buerger and contributing authors Lisa Babbage, Chris Meek, and Eric Caron to discuss the powerful new book, Voices Against Trafficking: Courage is Contagious – Uniting Voices and Nations in the War Against Human Slavery. At a time when true heroes can seem scarce, Voices Against Trafficking brings together extraordinary accounts from ordinary people who refused to look away in the face of injustice. These first-hand narratives spotlight individuals who saw something, said something, and took action—changing the course of lives forever. The stories remind us that the courage of a single person can create ripples of hope that reach across communities and even nations. Andi Buerger, a survivor of brutal child sex trafficking, shares her journey from victim to internationally recognized advocate who has rescued hundreds of at-risk teens through her nonprofit work. Lisa Babbage brings her expertise as an educator, nonprofit leader, and survivor of abuse, working to restore dignity to women and children. Chris Meek, co-founder of SoldierStrong, combines lessons on leadership, resilience, and humanitarian service from decades of working with U.S. veterans and global causes. Eric Caron, a decorated former U.S. Special Agent, offers a law enforcement and national security perspective on dismantling trafficking networks and rescuing victims. Together, they discuss the harsh realities of human trafficking, the systemic challenges in combating it, and the urgent need to unite voices from all walks of life in this fight. This compelling conversation will challenge listeners to confront the uncomfortable truth about modern-day slavery—and inspire them to believe that courage truly is contagious.

In today's episode on 22nd August 2025, we tell you why S&P Global hadn't upgraded India's sovereign credit rating for 18 years, and why it has finally done so now.

Is data the end-all be-all of marketing? Or should marketers trust their instincts more, finding the courage to make decisions that don't always hide behind dashboards? Francesco Federico, CMO at S&P Global, talks about the push and pull of data and instinct in today's marketing, on the latest podcast episode. We then dissect his shiny new object: agentic AI. Is it truly new? How does agentic AI differ from simply using a tool? And how will it alter the future of marketing? Tune in to find out. 

En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Eugenio Garibay y Andre Dos Santos desmenuzan el reporte de S&P Global que reafirma la calificación de EE.UU. y destaca que la recaudación por aranceles podría ayudar a compensar parte del costo del “Big Beautiful Bill”, con lectura fiscal, de tasas y de curva.Luego pasan a la jornada política en Washington: la visita de Volodímir Zelenski para reunirse con Donald Trump, la caravana de líderes europeos y el inusual protocolo que abrió preguntas sobre quién llevó la batuta del encuentro, hilando qué puede venir para el frente diplomático de Ucrania. Cierran en corporativos con Home Depot: resultados sólidos pero con mezcla prudente (proyectos pequeños firmes, “big ticket” contenidos), y lo que eso sugiere sobre la salud del consumidor, la vivienda y el ciclo de mejoras del hogar.

商战豪门剧是香港TVB最拿手的一种主题套路，某种程度上也折射了整座城市的日常兴趣。2025年6月底，城中的热点之一就是这么一个故事：香港最大的地产商之一新世界发展，最终艰难完成了价值886亿港元的债务重组。新世界发展背后是“四大家族”之一的郑氏家族，它的第三代核心人物郑志刚也随着债务重组的完成，彻底退出家族生意。过去十年中，郑志刚创立的商业地产品牌K11一度名声大噪，颇有压倒老品牌“新世界”的趋势。家族第一代郑裕彤的周大福珠宝依旧在赚钱，虽然这种传统的珠光宝气已经很少再被提起。这种张扬与低调并存的矛盾，是郑氏家族管理的大公司身上普遍具有的共性。爽剧源自现实，却不一定是现实的全部。以上种种，都不能直接推导出新世界发展暴雷的原因。所以本期节目，我们结合郑氏家族的发展史，以及新世界发展等上市公司的财报数据，为这家看起来“大而不能倒”的公司重新开一份深究病因的诊断书。注：节目中对于郑裕彤的去世时间叙述有误（应为2016年），在此更正并致歉。| 主播 |肖文杰、约小亚| 时间轴 |01:26 商界豪门的流行叙事03:57 由郑裕彤开创的家族产业10:50 多层集团结构如何惠及家族18:56 新世界发展的收入核心到底是什么？25:40 K11对于新世界发展的意义36:56 分层理解新世界发展的债务危机48:16 债务重组后，拆弹工作就结束了吗？54:02 一切都关乎于信誉| 延伸资料 |Bloomberg-New World Gets 100% Lender Approval for $11 Billion RefinancingHow a Hong Kong Dynasty Was Hit by China's Property Crisis郑氏家族的家族关系及任职情况新世界发展的历年年报周大福创建（原名新创建）的历年年报周大福珠宝的历年年报Bloomberg-Casino Wants to Use Jewelry to Track Down the World's Top GamblersS&P Global-中国开发商的永续债或将继续存续（首发于2022年）| 后期制作 |KK| 声音设计 |刘三菜| 收听方式 |你可以通过小宇宙、苹果播客、Spotify、喜马拉雅、网易云音乐、QQ 音乐、荔枝、豆瓣等平台收听节目。| 认识我们 |微信公众号：第一财经 YiMagazine联系我们：thatisbiz@yicai.com

The PJM capacity auction this month broke records with sky-high wholesale power prices — and that was by design. Under PJM's auction rules, tight supply raises prices, incentivizing the development of new generation and encouraging existing generation to stay online. The big driver of that tight supply? Data-center driven load growth. The independent system operator covers Virginia, one of the densest and fastest-growing regions for data center development. So will higher wholesale prices incentivize enough generation to meet load growth without provoking the public with higher bills?  In this episode, Shayle talks to Steve Piper, research director of North American power and renewables at S&P Global. Steve and Shayle cover topics like: Why Steve says PJM and other stakeholders became concerned that low prices weren't incentivizing enough generation to stay on the market Why ISOs upping resource adequacy requirements across technologies, while raising targets for reserve margins The bottlenecks slowing down the development of new generation What's holding back demand response in the auction Resources: Latitude Media: Will Pennsylvania be the nation's AI-energy model?   PJM: PJM Auction Procures 134,311 MW of Generation Resources; Supply Responds to Price Signal  Utility Dive: PJM capacity prices set another record with 22% jump  Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

Paul Gruenwald, chief economist at S&P Global Ratings, says he expects a jump in consumer prices to 3.5 percent by the end of the year, and — while he thinks the move will be temporary or a one-time response to resolution of tariff uncertainty — he expects that to make the Federal Reserve more cautious about cutting rates. That's especially true because he expects economic growth to slow from about 3% early in the year to just above 1% by year's end. Despite that damper on growth, he says the economy will avoid a recession, muddling through a period of doldrums. Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, makes the ETF variation of one of the greatest mutual funds of all time his pick for the ETF of the Week, and Chuck tackles Wednesday's news from the Federal Reserve, noting that if rate cuts happen this year — he's been skeptical for months — they will still disappoint investors and economists who now seem certain that the Fed will move at its next meeting in September.
