WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Amy Coney Barrett, President Donald Trump’s pick for a U.S. Supreme Court vacancy, said she will rule based on the law, not her personal views, in prepared remarks issued on Sunday ahead of her Senate confirmation hearing this week.

Barrett, a conservative appeals court judge, said that in her current job she has “done my utmost to reach the result required by the law, whatever my own preferences might be.”

A devout Catholic who has a record of opposing abortion rights, Barrett is likely to be probed by Senate Democrats on that issue in particular. If Barrett is confirmed to the position by the Republican-controlled Senate, the court

Yearn finance (YFI) gains 36% as DeFi tokens follow Bitcoin’s bullish trend

In the past 72 hours, Yearnfinance (YFI) surged by 58% after dropping to as low as $12,260 at a few exchanges.

Three factors that may have catalyzed the sharp rebound are: YFI had become deeply oversold, lead developer Andre Cronje’s deep commitment to the project and the ever expanding use cases for YFI within a large ecosystem.

YFI was deeply oversold

Over the past month DeFi tokens endured a brutal correction which saw the value of many DeFi tokens drop by 40%-70%. The sell-off appears to be primarily led by corrections in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) but now that BTC has turned $11K to support, traders are watching to see if YFI and other tokens will continue to rise higher.

As Cointelegraph reported, the strong fundamentals of the top DeFi projects was a hint that the market was oversold.

BEIJING (AP) — Global stock markets and Wall Street futures rose Friday after President Donald Trump said talks had resumed on an aid package for the struggling U.S. economy.

London and Frankfurt opened higher. Shanghai and Sydney advanced. Tokyo and Hong Kong declined.

Wall Street gained Thursday after President Donald Trump, who earlier called off negotiations with legislative leaders, said “very productive” talks had begun. Separately, a report indicated the near-record pace of U.S. job losses might be slowing.

Stock prices have been volatile since mid-September as investors swing between optimism about possible development of a coronavirus vaccine and unease that markets recovered too fast and shares are too expensive.

“When the world’s financial markets are at the mercy of the randomness emanating from the White House, it is hardly surprising that investors elsewhere would prefer to wait on the side-lines,” said Jeffrey Halley of Oanda in a report. “Unfortunately,

BEIJING (AP) — Asian stock markets followed Wall Street higher on Friday on hopes Washington will provide more aid to the struggling U.S. economy.

Benchmarks in Shanghai, Hong Kong, South Korea and Sydney advanced. Tokyo was off 0.1%.

Wall Street gained Thursday after President Donald Trump suggested he might be reversing his decision to halt talks on economic aid. Separately, a report indicated the near-record pace of U.S. job losses might be slowing.

“The on-and-off nature of the fiscal stimulus discussion in the U.S. hardly inspires lasting confidence,” said Mizuho Bank in a report. “Uncertainty around the presidential election on 3 November will likely persist not only through to polling day but possibly after.”

JCPenney may be about to emerge from its chapter 11 bankruptcy and get back to the business of retailing. Then again, maybe it won’t.

In what is turning into certainly one of the most convoluted and complicated bankruptcy cases in recent retail history, what had seemed to be a done deal for two shopping mall real estate companies and a group of private equity investors to buy the company has apparently hit a speed bump. How big that bump is and how much damage it will do to the underside of this deal remains to be seen.

The latest wrinkle came earlier this week when a group of smaller lenders to the retailer led by Aurelius

ArcelorMittal Rises 11% In A Day On Acquisition News; More Gains To Follow

ArcelorMittal stock (NYSE: MT) increased 10.5% in a day on September 28, 2020. This was after the announcement of Cleveland-Cliffs deciding to buy ArcelorMittalâs US operations in a $1.4 billion cash and stock deal, expected to close later this year. ArcelorMittal will receive over $500 million in cash upfront while the remaining portion will be almost a quarter share in Cleveland-Cliffs stock (NYSE: CLF). After completing a $2 billion asset sale to reduce debt, this deal will help MT to repurchase shares with the $500 million cash proceeds. Also, this includes only the sale of its US assets, while MT will continue to serve North American markets with operations in Canada and Mexico. Thus, expectations of lower debt burden, gradual recovery in the steel market, and the new share repurchase program led to 10.5% intra-day spike in MTâs stock. Despite this rise and the fact that the stock is up

Follow the rioters’ money trail to stop the chaos

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Successful countries are characterized by a fidelity to long-lasting traditions and institutions, including the rule of law. Jurisdictions characterized by few constructive traditions, weak institutions and failures to maintain the rule of law are prone to chaos. The U.S. is threatened at the moment by calls to undermine a key institution the U.S. Supreme Court and by certain state and local authorities who are failing to maintain the rule of law. There are a couple of non-complex and very doable solutions for these two problems.

The American Founders were keenly aware that parliamentary democracies tend to evolve into corrupt majoritarian tyrannies, so they designed a republican form of government with three branches of government to checkmate each other. The Founders understood that the U.S. Constitution they created was not perfect and from time to time would need to be amended in an orderly and defined way. It took a
