Because a lot of bank branches were still closed, and the crew wanted their money, he requested that we transfer the money via Zelle. When I asked Chase to discuss Zelle fraud, I received an email saying, "Unfortunately, we don't have anyone available for an interview." The way the email messages from Gary were subliterate in a completely different way from the way a classic Gary email is subliterate. When Gary Kruglitz told us to Zelle him, he didn't really tell us to Zelle him. It's possible that the government will eventually be moved to safeguard consumers against Zelle fraud.

Gold gets some respite but still poised for quarterly fall

Spot gold rose 0.4% to $1,872.20 per ounce by 1030 GMT. U.S. gold futures gained 0.6% to $1,889.80. The dollar pulled back from 10-month highs and benchmark 10-year Treasury yields retreated from a 16-year peak, lifting bullion's appeal, but both were still headed for their best quarters in a year. Spot silver gained 2% to $23.05 per ounce, platinum firmed 1.2% to $915.15, and palladium rose 0.6% to $1,279.69. All three were poised to squeeze out quarterly gains if trend holds.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts for October 2023
  + stars: | 2023-09-28 | by ( Martha C. White | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +18 min
With the Federal Reserve steadily raising interest rates to fight inflation, high-yield savings account payouts have steadily risen, too. After years of near-zero returns, the average savings account rate has risen to 0.45%, according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Their new High-Yield Savings account offers a 3.5% APY, but you need a hefty $5,000 deposit to open the account. Unlike some high-yield online savings accounts, you earn a high APY—currently 5%—on every dollar in your account. You can conduct immediate electronic transfers between your brokerage account and savings account, and manage both savings and investment activities on a single platform.

Gold bars of different sizes lie in a safe on a table at the precious metals dealer Pro Aurum. Gold steadied on Thursday, although prices hovered near a six-month low hit in the previous session due to an elevated dollar and Treasury yields, with markets awaiting U.S. economic data for clues on the Federal Reserve's interest rate trajectory. Spot gold held its ground at $1,874.49 per ounce by 0435 GMT after shedding 1.4%, its biggest daily decline since July, on Wednesday. Data on Wednesday showed orders for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods rose in August and business spending on equipment appeared to regain momentum. Higher rates raise the opportunity cost of holding bullion, which is priced in dollars and does not yield any interest.

Gold hits over 1-month low on higher-for-longer U.S. rates theme
  + stars: | 2023-09-27 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Gold prices dropped to a more than one-month low on Wednesday, beaten down by an assurgent U.S. dollar as markets made adjustments to a rising interest rate scenario. There is a 40% chance that the Federal Reserve will need to raise rates "meaningfully" to beat inflation, Minneapolis Fed Bank President Neel Kashkari said on Tuesday. Higher interest rates raise the opportunity cost of holding bullion, which is priced in dollars and does not yield any interest. SPDR Gold Trust , the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, said its holdings touched a more than four-year low. Spot silver dropped 0.8% to a 12-day low of $22.69 per ounce, while platinum was up 0.1% to $904.87.

Gold edges down as markets assess Fed's rate outlook

Gold edged lower on Monday after eking out a narrow gain last week, as investors assessed the U.S. Federal Reserve officials' decision to flag further interest rate hikes ahead of a consumer inflation print later this week. Spot gold was down 0.1% at $1,922.76 per ounce by 0525 GMT, while U.S. gold futures fell 0.2% to $1,942.30. SPDR Gold Trust , the world's largest gold-backed ETF, said its holdings fell on Friday to their lowest level since Jan. 2020. U.S. business activity showed little change in September, a survey published Friday showed, while a separate survey showed the euro zone economy is likely to contract this quarter and won't return to growth anytime soon. The Bank of Japan maintained ultra-low interest rates on Friday and pledged to bring inflation sustainably to its 2% target.

Gold defies strength in dollar, yields as global rates peak
  + stars: | 2023-09-22 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Gold firmed on Friday despite pressure from a stronger U.S. dollar and bond yields, as investors assessed major central banks' decisions to stand pat on interest rates as a signal of imminent global economic pain. Spot gold was up 0.3% to $1,924.45 per ounce by 0551 GMT, having logged its biggest daily drop since Sept. 5 on Thursday. "The markets looked at central banks and said you're not stopping hikes because inflation is beaten, you're stopping because you're worried that global growth is about to stop," said Ilya Spivak, head of global macro at Tastylive. The dollar stood near a six-month peak on the prospects of higher-for-longer U.S. rates, while benchmark 10-year Treasury yields climbed a 16-year high and global equities eyed their worst week in a month. Investors traditionally buy gold as a hedge against economic uncertainty, but higher rates tend to weigh on non-interest-paying bullion.

United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain (center) marches with UAW members through downtown Detroit after a rally in support of the union's members as they strike the Big Three automakers, Detroit, Michigan, Sept. 15, 2023. DETROIT – Major automakers are calling into question the United Auto Workers' motives in launching targeted strikes in light of leaked messages by a union director calling to "keep them wounded for months." Ford communications chief Mark Truby said in a statement Friday the leaked messages are "disappointing, to say the least, given what is at stake for our employees, the companies and this region." In response to The Detroit News, Furman would not confirm writing the messages but according to the paper, called them "private messages" that "you shouldn't have." The leaked messages come as Fain on Friday announced additional plants the union plans to strike as part of its "stand-up strikes," a nod to historic "sit-down" strikes by the UAW in the 1930s.

Headline economic issues and benefits such as hourly pay, retirement benefits, cost-of-living adjustments, wage progression and work-life balance remain central to the discussions. Here's a general overview of where the union and companies stand on key issues. Wage tiers — putting autoworkers into distinct pay ranges or classifications — is a tricky, moving target. The companies and union have defined tiers differently during past negotiations as well as during the talks this year. UAW leaders are specifically concerned with vehicle production commitments at Stellantis, which has proposed closing, selling or consolidating 18 facilities.

Gold stalls as Fed caution keeps investors at bay

Bars of gold are seen at the Krastsvetmet company, one of the world's largest producers of precious metals in Moscow, Russia on January 31, 2023. Gold prices were subdued on Wednesday as investors remained cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve's policy decision, where the U.S. central bank is expected to stay put on interest rates, but prospects loom for further hikes later this year. Spot gold was down 0.1% at $1,929.86 per ounce by 0517 GMT, holding below its highest level since Sept. 5 reached on Tuesday. The Fed's rate-setting policy committee will release a new policy statement and interest rate decision at 1800 GMT, with Fed Chair Jerome Powell scheduled to hold a press conference at 1830 GMT. A more hawkish Fed on the back of stronger-than-expected August U.S. CPI and PPI data released last week should see downside risk to gold prices, NAB Commodities Research said in a note.

The southern white rhinos, thought to be the largest single population of their kind, were put up for auction in April with a starting price of $10 million. But the conservation group African Parks announced this month that it had reached a deal to take over the herd. “We felt we had a moral obligation to step in,” Peter Fearnhead, the group’s co-founder and chief executive, said. The 30-square-mile farm, Platinum Rhino, about 100 miles southwest of Johannesburg, was set up in 2009 by John Hume, a businessman originally from Zimbabwe. Mr. Hume has said that he created the farm because he wanted to help rhinos by building up their numbers.

Gold prices edge up ahead of likely Fed rate pause

Bars of gold are seen at Krastsvetmet, one of the world's largest producers of precious metals, in Moscow, January 31, 2023. Gold prices edged higher on Monday as investors priced in a pause in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve at its policy meeting this week, with a focus on the U.S. central bank's rate outlook. Asian shares fell, making gold more attractive for investors ahead of policy decisions by the Fed on Wednesday, Bank of England on Thursday and the Bank of Japan on Friday. Gold, which offers no yield, tends to fall out of favor among investors when interest rates rise. Chinese gold prices hit record highs last week, extending a months-long rally as consumers snap up the safe-haven asset to offset a depreciating yuan.
