☆ How to use options to enhance the income from this dividend-yielding agricultural play
▼ + stars: | 2025-01-02 | by ( Michael Khouw | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

BG YTD mountain Bunge Global in 2024 Bunge competes with other major agribusinesses, such as Cargill, Archer-Daniels-Midland and Louis Dreyfus Company. The "Dogs" strategy attempts to take a contrarian position by identifying out-of-favor stocks, and Bunge certainly qualifies as out of favor. The options trade Uncertainty over fundamental drivers, such as falling crush margins, has also contributed to premiums for higher-than-average options. Thus, investors doing buy-writes or covered calls can enhance their dividend yield by selling some upside options premium. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

☆ A palm oil company, a group of US financiers, and the destruction of Peru's rainforest

He marveled at the efficiency of the African oil palm, which can produce five times as much edible oil per acre as corn or soy. As environmental activists raised the alarm about the palm oil industry's toll on the tropical forests of Southeast Asia two decades ago, Unilever, the world's largest buyer of palm oil, teamed up with the World Wildlife Fund and other parties to establish the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil. Six years later, as a member of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, they sold that operation to Felda Global Ventures, the third-largest palm oil company in the world, for almost $200 million. Not only was García's government offering sweetheart deals to foreign investors under its National Plan to Promote Oil Palm, but the country had more than 3 million acres suitable for oil palm. It was Washington Bolívar, the activist who had helped Ucayali's Indigenous communities fight the palm oil plantations.

☆ Badly damaged Russian tankers carrying thousands of tons of fuel spill oil near Black Sea
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-16 | by ( Catherine Nicholls | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Two Russian tankers carrying thousands of tons of fuel were badly damaged in stormy weather near the Black Sea over the weekend, leading to an oil spill, according to Russian state media. The tankers were carrying more than 9,000 tons of oil, emergency services reported, according to TASS. Some of this oil spilled into the Kerch Strait, which specialists were preparing to clean up, it said. The region suffered a similar oil spill in November 2007, when five ships sank in storms in the Black Sea and the Azov Sea. In that incident, strong winds and high surf caused the Volgoneft 139 to split in two, spilling up 560,000 gallons, or approximately 1,000 tons, of fuel oil.

☆ Certain foods may disrupt your body’s fight against cancer cells, study says

CNN —The food you eat may be affecting your body’s ability to fight cancer cells in the colon, according to a new study. The potential culprit: an overabundance of certain omega-6 fatty acids — perhaps from ultraprocessed foods in your diet — that may hinder the anti-inflammatory and tumor-fighting properties of another essential fatty acid, omega-3. Linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid that is found in corn, peanut, soybean, safflower and sunflower oils, is the most common omega-6 in the US food supply. “It’s a leap to say that omega-6s from ultraprocessed foods are the cause. Many ultraprocessed foods are made with soybean and other vegetable oils that contain higer levels of omega-6 fatty acids.

☆ Food prices are at their highest levels in over a year. And these items will get even more expensive
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-05 | by ( Lee Ying Shan | In Ying-Shan-Lee | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Athvisions | E+ | Getty ImagesGlobal food prices recently rose to an 18-month high, with some food baskets expected to continue climbing, according to market watchers. In October, world food commodity prices were at their highest since April 2023, according to the most recent data compiled by the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization. The FAO Food Price Index, which monitors the prices of five food baskets: grains, meat, dairy, vegetable oils and sugar, rose by 2% in October, driven primarily by a surge in vegetable oil prices. The index measures raw commodity prices rather than retail costs, but the increase suggests that higher food prices may continue to affect consumers. While coffee and cocoa prices are not reflected in the FAO index, prices of the two commodities face the "most risk," said Biggin.

☆ Are scented candles bad for you? What the science says

The risk of toxic emissions is greater when candles are scented or dyed, which is another reason why paraffin-free candles aren’t immediately in the clear. The association’s stance is based on an October 2021 study that consisted of burning 24 soy and paraffin candles, scented and unscented. However, the research was a joint effort between the NCA, the European Candle Manufacturers Association and the Latin American Candle Association. If you simply can’t resist using scented candles, look for those with essential oils or candles labeled as phthalate-free. When burning scented candles, do so in small doses to avoid headaches or irritation of the respiratory system or eyes.
