☆ Fidelity whistleblower alleges he was fired for raising red flags over pressure to sell pricey investments
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-07 | by ( Hayley Cuccinello | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Read previewA former Fidelity financial advisor has accused the brokerage of unlawfully firing him after filing a whistleblower complaint. Fidelity ranked branch managers by the number of client assets in more expensive investments such as stock-managed accounts, Maeker said. Financial advisors who did not score highly were awarded little to no stock or threatened to be fired, Meaker said. This race to zero has led to more pressure on high-fee products, as Maeker's branch manager told him. In turn, financial advisors were pushed to sell more Tier 3 investments by awarding 10 times the amount of compensation for Tier 3 investments versus Tier 1.

Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes on Friday said he would "do whatever it takes" to defend the company's retail investors from possible illegal short selling of its shares. Delivering remarks in Scranton, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday, Biden took a dig at Donald Trump, his November Republican election opponent, as shares of Trump Media tanked from its more than $70 debut price. Trump Media's stock, trading under the ticker DJT , rallied toward the end of this week, but has plummeted starkly from its peak. It involves a trader selling shares that have not been borrowed or arranged to be borrowed. Nunes said that Trump Media has appeared on the Nasdaq's "Reg SHO threshold list," which could indicate illegal trading behavior.

By affirmatively declining to hold women criminally responsible for seeking or obtaining an abortion, the legislature did not grant women a right to seek an abortion; it simply decided the state would not prosecute women for doing so.

☆ Biden administration wants to kill ‘junk’ fees in retirement investments and advice

The DOL’s proposed rule seeks to ensure “all retirement investors receive the same quality of investment advice regardless of product or services,” said DOL Acting Secretary Julie Su in a call with reporters. Across all retirement products, “requiring advisers to make recommendations in the savers’ best interest can increase retirement savers’ returns by between 0.2% and 1.20% per year. Industry pushback expectedThe new proposed rule follows earlier attempts by the Labor Department to broaden and standardize the circumstances in which financial advisers must act in retirement savers’ best interests. It is not clear yet whether the changes called for in the latest proposed rule will be sufficient to quell the opposition earlier versions faced. But industry pushback is expected, including from the Insured Retirement Institute, a trade association for the insured retirement industry.

Albemarle, the world's biggest lithium producer, is acquiring the stake in Patriot just as the Canadian company estimated its Corvette resource as the biggest hardrock lithium deposit in the Americas. Patriot also agreed to study with Albemarle the viability of a downstream lithium hydroxide plant integrated with its Corvette deposit. The battery metals miner on Monday announced the first mineral resource estimate for spodumene pegmatite at Corvette, which showed deposits of 109.2 million tonnes of lithium oxide. Albemarle will subscribe to about 7.1 million Patriot shares for C$15.29 apiece, a near 7% premium to the stock's July 31 closing price on the TSX Venture Exchange.

☆ A debate raging in Washington DC over the definition of who qualifies to be an accredited investor could transform the way startups raise money

Lawmakers and federal regulators are contemplating changing the definition of "accredited investor." There's a philosophical debate raging in Washington that could transform the multitrillion-dollar capital markets and change the way startups raise money. The origins of the definition of "accredited investor" trace back to the Great Depression and the Securities Act of 1933. And since the Reg D exemption's creation, private markets have become the dominant way for most issuers to access capital markets. According to analysis from the Brookings Institution, in 2020, 13.85% of US households qualified as accredited investors, compared with just 1.8% in 1983.

Private offerings can be a way for investors to open the curtain on higher-risk investments. Illustration: Alex NabaumTwo types of stock offerings, known as Regulation A+ and Regulation CF (short for crowdfunding), are gaining ground with self-guided, nonaccredited investors. While there are disclosures for these offerings, the requirements are less than investors may be familiar with for large companies listed on a major stock exchange, for example. Companies that use Reg CF are generally at an earlier stage of development and have lower valuations. But again, reporting requirements are less than large publicly listed companies face.

☆ As lithium miners gear up for Q1 earnings, investors focus on tumbling prices
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-02 | by ( Arshreet Singh | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Strong demand for EVs and limited supply of the metal pushed lithium prices to record levels in November last year, soaring more than ten-fold from early 2021. But a slump in demand for electric vehicles in China, the world's biggest market, left a stockpile of the metal and drove prices down. Lithium prices have fallen by at least a third in the first quarter, according to an index tracked by Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, raising concerns miners will see a hit to their bottomline. Though falling spot prices have raised red flags for investors over the long-term outlook of lithium miners, analysts believe spot prices will rise again as we get closer to the end of the year. In the long run, supply will continue to fall short of demand, which will help the miners, he added.

☆ U.S. SEC issues guidance on broker and adviser 'care obligations'
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-20 | by ( John Mccrank | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

The guidance, which is the third in a series of such documents, specifically clarifies brokers' and advisers' so-called "care obligations" under the SEC's long-standing investment adviser fiduciary standard and its Regulation Best Interest rule (Reg BI), passed in 2019. Reg BI is a package of rules requiring brokers to disclose potential conflicts in the fees investors pay and the commissions brokers earn when giving financial advice. The rules also require brokers to raise the standard for giving advice to meet a client's best interest when recommending stocks, mutual funds and other financial products. Consumer groups criticized the Reg BI rule for being too vague in its definition of "best interest" while not addressing all potential conflicts. The guidance under the current Democratic-led SEC, seeks to plug some of these gaps, analysts have said.

The sanctions, imposed by the Treasury and State departments in concert with Britain, hit entities and individuals across over 20 countries and jurisdictions, including facilitators of sanctions evasion, the State Department said in a statement. Separately, the Treasury said it imposed sanctions on Russian financial facilitators and sanctions evaders around the world, including Turkey, United Arab Emirates and China-based people and companies. The Treasury also targeted King-Pai Technology HK Co, Ltd, which it said is a China-based supplier for multiple entities in Russia's military-industrial complex.

This led some market participants to voice complaints that increasingly automated trading posed a systemic risk. Others saw such a shocking market tumble as an outlier, and the cost of progress, that just needed additional guardrails in order to avoid a repeat. In 2012, the benchmark index for the circuit breakers changed to the S&P 500 (.SPX) and the percentage levels needed to trigger the trading halt were lowered. There have been instances, of varying severity, since the 2010 crash where trading was unable to take place. Others included a three-hour trading halt on Aug. 22, 2013 and the Aug 2015 session that saw trading halted for nearly four hours.

The NYSE, which is owned by Intercontinental Exchange Inc (ICE.N), said it was still investigating and that traders may want to consider filing for erroneous trade claims. "Obviously, there were a lot of stocks that had major issues," said Joe Saluzzi, co-manager of trading at Themis Trading in Chatham, New Jersey. Saluzzi said there was "zero failure tolerance" among traders for glitches at the key open and close of trading.
