Govt looking into dumping issue of certain steel products: Steel Secretary
Agencies The government is looking into issues surrounding dumping of certain categories of steel products into the Indian market, Steel Secretary Nagendra Nath Sinha said on Tuesday. The statement comes amid the industry raising concerns over the rise in steel imports. In October India remained the net importer of steel. The Ministry of Finance is looking at dumping issues of certain categories of steel products and will take a final call on the anti-dumping duty, Sinha told reporters at the '4rth ISA Steel Conclave ' event here. According to SteelMint India , the country's steel imports were higher at 0.46 Million Tonnes (MT) in October, compared to 0.24 MT exports. On coking coal supplies, the official said the government is making efforts to secure coking coal through alternate sources and is in talks with Russia and Mongolia for supply of the steel-making raw material. India is the largest importer of metallurgical coal, which includes Pulverised Coal Injection (PCI) with annual inbound shipments in the range of 70-75 MT. The imports are mainly from countries like Australia, the US, Canada, and Mozambique. When asked about the second phase of the production-linked incentive for the steel sector, the secretary said it is at the discussion level. Meanwhile, Tata Steel CEO & MD T V Narendran said India being a net importer of steel is a matter of concern. The government has assured intervention, if imports remain on the rise, Narendran said.

5 things to know for Nov. 7: Trump trial, Israel, Presidential debate, Actors strike, Ukraine | CNN
Several banks in the US are trying to resolve a processing issue that caused direct deposit delays.

Here’s what else you need to know toGet Up to Speed and On with Your Day.

Former President Donald Trumptestified under oath Mondayin the civil fraud case against him and his business. The $250 million lawsuit brought by the New York attorney general’s office alleges that Trump and his co-defendants committed repeated fraud in his business practices to get better terms on real estate loans and insurance policies. When Trump was pressed Monday about the overstated values of his properties, he leaned on the disclaimers in his financial statements as a defense. He alsorepeatedly lashed outat the attorney general and judge, calling the case a “scam” and “political witch hunt.” The judge already ruled the former president is liable for fraud and he’s now considering how much Trump will have to pay in damages. Today marksone monthsince Hamas launched surprise cross-border raids from Gaza on October 7, killing 1,400 in Israel and kidnapping more than 240 hostages. Israel is retaliating on Gaza with a constant barrage of airstrikes as it aims to eliminate the militant group.More than 10,000 peoplehave been killed since Israel began its military offensive nearly a month ago, the Hamas-controlled health ministry in the Palestinian enclave said Monday. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has refused to allow a ceasefire until Hamas releases all theremaining hostages, which includes civilian men, women and children. So far, Hamas has released just four hostages — two elderly Israeli women and an American mother and daughter — while the IDF last week said troops had rescued an Israeli soldier. Five Republicans have qualified for thethird 2024 presidential debateset for Wednesday in Miami. They are former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott. Missing from the debate stage will be North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who both failed to meet the criteria. Former Vice President Mike Pence, who qualified for the first two debates, dropped out of the Republican primary last month. Donald Trump,the front-runner, is skipping the debate as he did the two previous ones. He is slated to host a rally in South Florida as counterprogramming instead. SAG-AFTRA, the union that represents about 160,000 actors, said it has responded to Hollywood studios’ “last, best & final offer” on Monday as pressure ramps up to reach a deal ending amonthslong strike. The union said in a message to its members that there are several “essential items” that the two sides have yet to reach agreement on, including the use of artificial intelligence. Unions have advocated for restrictions on the use of AI, a technology that actors and writers alike believe couldthreaten their employment prospects. It remains unclear when a deal will be reached, but the standoff, which began in July, has taken on heightened urgency as the two sides aim to salvage the remainder of the winter television season. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyinvited Donald Trumpto visit Ukraine after he claimed he could end Russia’s war against Ukraine war within 24 hours if he wins reelection next year. “If he can come here, I will need 24 minutes — yes, 24 minutes… to explain (to) President Trump that he can’t manage this war,” Zelensky said, responding to Trump’s claim in an NBC interview that aired Sunday. Trump also claimed to CNN in May that the war would not have happened if he’d been president when Russia’s full-scale invasion began. Zelensky’s comments came after Ukraine’s top commander last week said the war hadentered a “stalemate,”and as Zelenskyfights to maintain fundingfor his military efforts.

The need for reproductive services in the area has surged due to the rising incidence of infertility. The increased rate of infertility in the area can be related to changes in lifestyle that include poor diets, little exercise, alcohol and drug misuse, and smoking. Additionally, as more people identify as LGBPTQ+, there is a greater need for fertility services to help them start a family. The existence of several fertility clinics equipped with cutting-edge products, medical gadgets, and state-of-the-art technology has contributed to the market's expansion over the projected decade. In 2022, the female infertility segment dominated the market with the largest market share of 55% and market revenue of 12.10 billion. The infertility segment is male infertility and female infertility.

The procedure segment is divided into artificial insemination, in-vitro fertilization, surrogacy and others. In 2022, the in-vitro fertilization segment dominated the market with the largest market share of 36% and market revenue of 7.92 billion. Custom Requirements can be requested for this report @https://www.thebrainyinsights.com/report/fertility-services-market-13781 Advancement in market The Beijing government declared that the city's health care system will include 16 different forms of assisted reproduction technology. The therapies covered by basic insurance would include freezing and preserving semen, transplanting embryos, and in-vitro fertilisation, according to Beijing's Municipal Medical Insurance Bureau. The action is being taken as China struggles to reverse a reduction in birthrate following the country's first population decline in six decades. The National Health Commission of China has provided provinces with guidelines for changing laws to increase fertility rates. Government political advisors suggested that single and unmarried women should have access to egg freezing and in vitro fertilisation (IVF) therapy, among other services, since they were concerned about China's fast ageing population. Market Dynamics Driver: The rising rates of infertility. Numerous biological, lifestyle and environmental factors influence fertility. A low egg or sperm count might result from structural changes in the reproductive system, obstacles in the way of an egg's journey, low motility in sperm, etc. Once more, lifestyle choices related to eating, dieting, exercising, age, weight, drinking, and other factors affect all these. For example, it is claimed that low chances of naturally having babies result from rising obesity. In addition, the prevalence of drug, alcohol, and cigarette use among men and women is rising, contributing to an increase in infertility. Due to the modern population's decision to put off starting a family until their late thirties, women's fertility declines with age, and the risk of infertility rises. Additionally, cultural shifts in which couples increasingly desire only one child due to government intrusions into private family planning decisions, such as those in China, have decreased fertility rates in several nations. The demand for fertility services is anticipated to increase during the projected period due to all these factors increasing infertility. Restraints: The pricey nature of fertility services. The growing demand for reproductive services is beyond the capacity of the fertility services supply side. Due to the high startup costs, a lack of skilled and trained personnel, and other limitations imposed by laws and regulations, there is a dearth of fertility clinics. Fertility services are expensive since most providers are private rather than public. Furthermore, in most countries, no legal provisions provide insurance or payment for these treatments. Due to the high expense of reproductive services, which prohibits most people from using them, these constraints also limit the market's potential growth. Opportunities: The implementation of new regulations pertaining to access to fertility services. Previously, married couples who could not conceive naturally may have reproductive services. Men and women who were not married were not allowed to use these services. These services were off-limits to even homosexual couples. Laws have evolved, and society is growing more accepting of the LGTBQ+ groups and the desire of single, unmarried men and women to raise their children independently. Consequently, the governments have made the necessary amendments to the legislation, which should help the market flourish. Challenges: the lack of awareness. The lack of awareness about infertility, its causes and possible treatments limits the market's growth. The stigma around infertility and the talk about it keeps many individuals from accessing these services or seeking professional help, further limiting the market's growth.

This year 'virtually certain' to be warmest in 125,000 years, EU scientists say
IANS The record-breaking October means 2023 is now "virtually certain" to be the warmest year recorded, C3S said in a statement. This year is "virtually certain" to be the warmest in 125,000 years, European Union scientists said on Wednesday, after data showed last month was the world's hottest October in that period. Last month smashed through the previous October temperature record, from 2019, by a massive margin, the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) said. "The record was broken by 0.4 degrees Celsius, which is a huge margin," said C3S Deputy Director Samantha Burgess , who described the October temperature anomaly as "very extreme". The heat is a result of continued greenhouse gas emissions from human activity, combined with the emergence this year of the El Nino weather pattern, which warms the surface waters in the eastern Pacific Ocean. Globally, the average surface air temperature in October was 1.7 degrees Celsius warmer than the same month in 1850-1900, which Copernicus defines as the pre-industrial period. The record-breaking October means 2023 is now "virtually certain" to be the warmest year recorded, C3S said in a statement. The previous record was 2016 - another El Nino year. Copernicus' dataset goes back to 1940. "When we combine our data with the IPCC, then we can say that this is the warmest year for the last 125,000 years," Burgess said. The longer-term data from U.N. climate science panel IPCC includes readings from sources such as ice cores, tree rings and coral deposits. The only other time before October a month breached the temperature record by such a large margin was in September 2023. "September really, really surprised us. So after last month, it's hard to determine whether we're in a new climate state. But now records keep tumbling and they're surprising me less than they did a month ago," Burgess said. Michael Mann, a climate scientist at University of Pennsylvania, said: "Most El Nino years are now record-breakers, because the extra global warmth of El Nino adds to the steady ramp of human-caused warming." Climate change is fuelling increasingly destructive extremes. This year, that included floods that killed thousands of people in Libya, severe heatwaves in South America, and Canada's worst wildfire season on record. "We must not let the devastating floods, wildfires, storms, and heatwaves seen this year become the new normal," said Piers Forster, climate scientist at University of Leeds. "By rapidly reducing greenhouse gas emissions over the next decade, we can halve the rate of warming," he added. Despite countries setting increasingly ambitious targets to gradually cut emissions, so far that has not happened. Global CO2 emissions hit a record high in 2022.

Israel: Almost 10,000 rockets fired from Gaza since October 7
ANI Representative image. Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip have fired more than 9,500 rockets at Israeli territory since Hamas launched its multi-pronged attack on the Jewish state one month ago, according to data published by the Israeli Foreign Ministry on Tuesday. Jerusalem said the numbers are not final and are constantly being updated. Throughout Tuesday, multiple air-raid sirens were activated in central Israel and localities near the border with Gaza. Some 1,400 people have been murdered in Israel since October 7, while 7,198 more have been wounded. As of Tuesday evening, 342 people remain hospitalized, of whom 51 are in serious condition, according to Israeli Health Ministry data. Hamas is believed to be holding at least 239 people hostage in Gaza. Along with Israeli citizens, this figure includes 25 Thai nationals, 21 Argentinians, 18 Germans, 10 Americans, seven French, seven Russians, four Hungarians, three Poles, three Portuguese, two Brits, two Filipinos, two Romanians and two Tanzanians. In addition, the terror group is holding hostage individual nationals of Canada, Austria, Brazil, China, South Africa, Denmark, Ireland, Lithuania, Mexico, Nepal, the Netherlands, Serbia, Ukraine and Uruguay. More than 330,000 Israeli citizens have returned from abroad since the start of "Operation Swords of Iron," the Israel Airports Authority announced on Tuesday, increasing the Jewish state's population by almost 3.5 per cent. At the same time, Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics recorded a sharp decrease in foreigners, including tourists, entering the country. Approximately 98,600 visitors traveled to Israel in October, a decrease of 73 per cent compared to the same month in 2022. Since Oct. 7, the Israel Defense Forces has attacked over 14,000 terror targets in Gaza, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Daniel Hagari said on Tuesday night. Troops have killed "thousands of terrorists above and beneath the ground" in the coastal enclave, according to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. On Wednesday, Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen is scheduled to travel to Brussels together with some of the families of the hostages, according to Hebrew media reports. As part of the visit, Israel's top diplomat will reportedly address the European Parliament and meet with senior E.U. officials. "Today, we mark one month since the terrible massacre committed by Hamas terrorists who infiltrated Israel. They committed the most horrible atrocities imaginable, murdered children, harmed women and kidnapped hundreds of civilians, including elderly people and children," Cohen posted on X on Tuesday. "We will never forget and never forgive. We will destroy Hamas, a terrorist organization worse than ISIS, and we will do everything in our power for the return of the hostages. I call on the international community to stand by our side in the fight against evil," he added. Experience Your Economic Times Newspaper, The Digital Way!

KP Tissue Releases Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KP Tissue Inc. (KPT) (TSX: KPT) reports the Q3 2023 financial and operational results of KPT and Kruger Products Inc. (Kruger Products). Kruger Products is Canada's leading manufacturer of quality tissue products for the Consumer market (Cashmere®, Purex®, SpongeTowels®, Scotties®, White Swan® and BonterraTM) and the Away-From-Home (AFH) market and continues to grow in the U.S. Consumer tissue business with the White Cloud® brand and premium private label products. KPT currently holds a 13.1% interest in Kruger Products. Kruger Products Q3 2023 Business and Financial Highlights “We are very pleased with our Adjusted EBITDA of $72.4 million in the third quarter of 2023, highlighted by robust sales volume in our Consumer segment and improved productivity from our network assets,” stated KP Tissue’s Chief Executive Officer, Dino Bianco. “We also benefited from a seasonally strong quarter, lower pulp and other input costs, as well as 2022 pricing carry over. As a result, we outperformed expectations despite an uncertain economic environment.” “Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, we are seeing some moderation in input costs but continued inflationary pressure on our SG&A as labour, marketing, and IT costs, amongst others, continue to rise. We believe volume will continue to be strong and with our previously announced pricing, our margins will be stable.” Outlook for Q4 2023For the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect margins to stabilize, and we will continue to reinvest in the business to drive long-term value. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA1in Q4 2023 is expected to be in the $60-$65 million range. Kruger Products Q3 2023 Financial ResultsRevenue was $473.4 million in Q3 2023 compared to $427.0 million in Q3 2022, an increase of $46.4 million or 10.9%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to higher sales volume and favourable sales mix in the Consumer segment, along with the favourable impact of selling price increases implemented across all segments and regions during 2022. Revenue was also favourably impacted by foreign exchange fluctuations on U.S. dollar sales. Cost of sales was $386.3 million in Q3 2023 compared to $394.6 million in Q3 2022, a decrease of $8.3 million or 2.1%. Manufacturing costs decreased as lower pulp and other input costs, along with productivity improvements in plant operations, were only partially offset by higher sales volumes and the unfavourable impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on U.S. dollar costs. Freight costs were lower compared to Q3 2022 as supply constraints and inflation moderated, while warehousing costs increased as a result of additional logistics network costs. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales was 81.6% in Q3 2023 compared to 92.4% in Q3 2022. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $40.0 million in Q3 2023 compared to $30.1 million in Q3 2022, an increase of $9.9 million or 33.0%. The increase was primarily due to higher advertising spend in the quarter, higher personnel costs, higher consulting costs, lower foreign exchange gains compared to the year ago quarter and higher related party management fees. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses were 8.4% in Q3 2023 compared to 7.0% in Q3 2022. Adjusted EBITDA1was $72.4 million in Q3 2023 compared to $30.7 million in Q3 2022, an increase of $41.7 million or 135.7%. The significant increase was primarily due to a combination of factors: higher sales volumes and favourable sales mix, selling price increases in 2022, lower pulp and other input costs, productivity improvements in plant operations and lower freight costs. These factors were partially offset by higher warehousing and SG&A expenses and the unfavourable impact of foreign exchange fluctuations. Net income was $12.9 million in Q3 2023 compared to a loss of $38.8 million in Q3 2022, an increase of $51.7 million. The increase was primarily due to higher Adjusted EBITDA and lower unrealized foreign exchange losses, partially offset by higher income tax expense. Kruger Products Q3 2023 LiquidityTotal liquidity, representing cash and availability under the revolving credit agreements, was $277.6 million as of September 30, 2023. In addition, $22.5 million of cash was held by Kruger Products for the Sherbrooke Expansion Project. Sherbrooke Expansion ProjectAs a result of significant inflation across the supply chain and interest rate increases during construction, the capital cost of the Sherbrooke Expansion Project is now forecast to increase to $377.5 million from $351.5 million. The additional costs are being financed by investments from Kruger Products and an $8.2 million increase in the Construction Facility. Management continues to monitor the project closely to minimize the impact of any further inflation. KPT Q3 2023 Financial ResultsKPT had net income of $1.8 million in Q3 2023. Included in net income was $1.8 million representing KPT’s share of Kruger Products’ net income, a dilution gain of $0.3 million and depreciation expense of $0.3 million related to adjustments to carrying amounts on acquisition. Dividends on Common SharesThe Board of Directors of KPT declared a quarterly dividend of $0.18 per share to be paid on January 15, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 2, 2024.

Ivanka Trump set to testify in civil fraud trial, following her father's heated turn on the stand
Agencies Ivanka Trump, who served as a senior White House adviser during her father’s presidency, testified virtually. New York: Her father gave caustic testimony. Her brothers each spent more than a day on the witness stand. Now it's Ivanka Trump 's turn to face questioning in the civil fraud trial that is publicly probing into the family business. Ex-President Donald Trump 's eldest daughter, who has been in his inner circle in both business and politics, is due on the stand Wednesday, after trying unsuccessfully to block her testimony. Unlike her father and her brothers, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., she is no longer a defendant in New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit. James alleges that Donald Trump's asset values were fraudulently pumped up for years on financial statements that helped him get loans and insurance. The non-jury trial will decide allegations of conspiracy, insurance fraud and falsifying business records - but Judge Arthur Engoron already has resolved the lawsuit's top claim by ruling that Trump engaged in fraud. That decision came with provisions that could strip the ex-president of oversight of such marquee properties as Trump Tower, though an appeals court is allowing him continued control of his holdings, at least for now. James, a Democrat, is seeking over $300 million in penalties and a ban on Trump doing business in New York. The ex-president and Republican 2024 front-runner denies any wrongdoing, as do the other defendants. He insisted in court Monday that his financial statements greatly underestimated his net worth, that any discrepancies were minor, that a disclaimer absolved him of liability and that "this case is a disgrace." Ivanka Trump was an executive vice president at the family's Trump Organization before becoming an unpaid senior adviser in her father's White House. Like her brothers, who are still Trump Organization EVPs, she has professed minimal knowledge of their father's annual financial statements. "I don't, specifically, know what was prepared on his behalf for him as a person, separate and distinct from the organization and the properties that I was working on," she said during sworn questioning for the investigation that eventually led to the lawsuit. She said she didn't know who prepared the statements or how the documents were compiled. As a Trump Organization executive, Ivanka Trump dealt with securing a loan and a lease for a Washington hotel and financing for the Doral golf resort near Miami and a hotel and condo skyscraper in Chicago, according to court filings. As her father's inauguration neared, she announced in January 2017 that she was stepping away from her Trump Organization job. After her time in the administration, she moved to Florida. An appeals court dismissed her as a defendant in the lawsuit in June, saying the claims against her were too old. Her attorneys contended that she shouldn't have to testify. They said the state was just trying to harass the family by dragging her into court. The attorney general's office argued that her testimony would be relevant, saying she was involved in some events discussed in the case and remains financially and professionally entwined with the Trump Organization and its leaders. The company has bought insurance for her and her businesses, managed her household staff and credit card bills, rented out her apartment and paid her legal fees, according to the state's court papers. Engoron and, later, an appeals court ruled that she had to testify. Experience Your Economic Times Newspaper, The Digital Way!

Abortion rights advocates, Democrats score wins in US elections
AFP Democrats and abortion rights advocates notched a string of electoral victories on Tuesday, including in conservative Ohio and Kentucky, an early signal that reproductive rights remain a potent issue for Democrats ahead of the 2024 presidential race. In Ohio, a state that voted for Republican Donald Trump by 8 percentage points in the 2020 presidential election, voters approved a constitutional amendment guaranteeing abortion rights, Edison Research projected. The outcome extended an unbeaten streak for abortion access advocates since the U.S. Supreme Court 's decision last year to overturn its 1972 Roe v. Wade ruling and eliminate a nationwide right to end pregnancies. In Virginia, Democrats won control of both legislative chambers, according to the Associated Press. The result was a rebuke for Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin, who campaigned hard for Republican candidates and sought to unify them around his proposal to ban most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. And in Kentucky, Democratic Governor Andy Beshear won a second four-year term, Edison projected, defying the conservative lean of a state that voted for Trump by more than 25 percentage points in 2020. The contests were among several across the U.S. offering critical clues about where the electorate stands less than 10 weeks before the Iowa presidential nominating contest kicks off the 2024 presidential campaign in earnest. The results could help assuage concerns among some national Democrats who are worried about President Joe Biden's unpopularity with voters. In a statement, Biden praised the Ohio result, saying, "Tonight, Americans once again voted to protect their fundamental freedoms - and democracy won." Beshear defeated Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, who would have been the state's first Black chief executive. Despite his party affiliation, Beshear has maintained high approval ratings, buoyed by his leadership through the coronavirus pandemic and natural disasters. He also ran on protecting abortion rights, though he is powerless to overturn the state's near-total ban. In his victory speech, Beshear called his win a "clear statement that anger politics should end right here and right now." Abortion battlegrounds Ohio was the latest abortion battleground, nearly a year and a half after the Supreme Court decision. Last year, abortion rights advocacy groups scored a series of victories by placing abortion-related referendums on the ballot, including in conservative states. They have doubled down on that strategy. The outcome in Ohio will boost efforts already underway to put similar ballot measures before voters in several states for 2024, including swing states Arizona and Florida. Anti-abortion forces campaigned against the Ohio amendment as too extreme, while abortion rights groups warned that rejecting it would pave the way for a stringent ban to take effect. Tuesday's vote renders moot a six-week limit the Republican-controlled legislature had previously approved. That law had been on hold pending a legal challenge. In Virginia, all 40 seats in the Senate and 100 seats in the House of Delegates were on the ballot. Democrats sought to make abortion the top issue. Youngkin had portrayed his proposed 15-week limit as a moderate compromise, a tactic he hoped could serve as a blueprint for Republicans next year. Youngkin poured millions of dollars from his political action committee into the race, and a Republican victory would likely have amplified calls from some party donors for him to step into the presidential race. Biden added his weight to the Virginia races last week, issuing endorsements for 16 Democrats running in competitive races for the state House and seven in the Senate, while sending out a fundraising plea to supporters. Elsewhere on Tuesday, Republican Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves won a second term over his Democratic challenger, Brandon Presley, a former mayor and the second cousin of singer Elvis Presley, according to Edison projections. Presley raised more funds than Reeves but faced an uphill climb in a state that voted for Trump over Biden by more than 16 percentage points in 2020. Both Reeves and Cameron in Kentucky were endorsed by Trump, the frontrunner for his party's 2024 White House nomination despite a litany of legal entanglements.

Walmart on track to meet $10b annual exports from India by 2027, says sourcing head Andrea Albright
Walmart is on track to reach its target of sourcing $10-billion worth of goods from India each year by 2027, a senior executive said. “We don't disclose individual numbers on progress, but we feel confident about the goals that we have set forth,” Andrea Albright, executive vice president, sourcing, at Walmart, told ET. India is already one of the top sourcing markets for the world’s largest retailer with annual exports worth about $3 billion, according to the company. Hundreds of Indian sellers have joined Walmart Marketplace since it opened this year and many of them have seen double-digit growth, the company said. Major differentiators for India include the size of the workforce, the range of category coverage, and the price point being “very competitive”, Albright said. “Everything from food to antibiotics, drug manufacturing, toys, apparel and home…it is such a breadth of categories and that’s quite unique to have in one country,” she said. Walmart had in December 2020 said it would triple its exports of goods from India to $10 billion a year by 2027. With a goal of accelerating progress towards this commitment, the US company will soon start the application process for its first growth summit in India, offering export-ready suppliers, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), cross-border trade suppliers, and innovative supply chain companies an opportunity to pitch for business. The summit will bring together dozens of Walmart buyers from the United States and Indian companies to evaluate their products for export, with buyers offering real-time, on-the-ground deals and prospects. The summit is scheduled for February 14-15, 2024 in Delhi. Walmart aims to increase exports across categories where India has expertise, including food, consumables, health and wellness, general merchandise, apparel, shoes, home textiles, and toys. India-made apparel, homeware, jewellery, hardlines and other popular products reach customers in 14 markets, including the US, Canada, Mexico, Central America and the United Kingdom via Walmart’s Global Sourcing office in Bengaluru, which opened in 2002.

On American shelves, Made-in-India is slowly replacing Made-In-China
Reuters Walmart, America's biggest retailer, is increasing its sourcing from India which means its stores in the US are selling more products with the Made-in-India tag. India is slowly gaining from the recent global shifts in manufacturing, sourcing and supply chains at the expense of China. A half-decade of disruption that has included trade wars, the pandemic, natural disasters, severe supply bottlenecks, Brexit, the war in Ukraine, and increasingly assertive industrial policies is profoundly redrawing the map of global manufacturing for export. While US goods imports from China declined by 10% from 2018 through 2022 in inflation-adjusted terms, they rose by 44% from India, 18% from Mexico and 65% from the 10 countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), a recent study by Boston Consulting Group has pointed out. For example, US imports of mechanical machinery from China shrank by 28% from 2018 through 2022, but increased by 21% from Mexico, 61% from ASEAN, and 70% from India. India has emerged as one of the winners in global manufacturing over the past five years, with its exports to the US surging by $23 billion, a 44% increase from 2018 to 2022, while China experienced a 10% decline in exports to the US during this period, the study reveals. Indian products are also gaining favour on the American shelves which have high consumer visibility. Walmart, America's biggest retailer, is increasing its sourcing from India which means its stores in the US are selling more products with the Made-in-India tag. Walmart aims to source across categories where India has expertise, including food, consumables, health and wellness, general merchandise, apparel, shoes, home textiles, and toys. It is on track to reach its target of sourcing $10-billion worth of goods from India each year by 2027, Andrea Albright, executive vice president, sourcing, at Walmart, has told ET. India is already one of the top sourcing markets for the world’s largest retailer with annual exports worth about $3 billion, according to the company. India-made apparel, homeware, jewellery, hardlines and other popular products reach customers in 14 markets, including the US, Canada, Mexico, Central America and the United Kingdom via Walmart’s Global Sourcing office in Bengaluru, which opened in 2002. Why is India more attractive? India enjoys a strong advantage in direct manufacturing costs as an export platform. As per BCG's calculations, the average landed cost of Indian-made goods imported into the US, including factory wages adjusted for productivity, logistics, tariffs and energy, is 15% lower than if the goods are made in the US. By contrast, the average US landed cost from China is only 4% lower than US costs and 21% higher for goods subject to US tariffs related to the trade war. Wage inflation has outpaced productivity gains in most regions, but India enjoys an edge on this count. Labor costs adjusted for productivity rose by 21% in the US from 2018 through 2022, for example, and by 24% in China. Similarly, productivity-adjusted labor costs rose by 22% in Mexico and by 18% in India, the BCG study calculates. Nevertheless, these two countries remain among the world’s most cost-competitive sources of manufacturing, and Mexico is the most competitive near-shore option for the US. A growing preference for supplies from India Another study on sourcing too finds a growing preference for sourcing from India among American businesses, 'QIMA Sourcing Survey 2023: Disruption, Diversification, Digitization' by QIMA, a quality control & supply chain audits company, says that after rising through the ranks of preferred procurement partners in the past few years, India maintains its high appeal as a supplier market. South Asia has continued rising through the ranks of most important buying regions for the West, with 42% of US- and EU-based respondents naming one or more South Asian countries among their top three sourcing partners, as per the survey. By contrast, the respective value for Southeast Asia has dropped to 33% in Q1 2023. Looking at individual countries, the two regions’ respective leaders, India and Vietnam, are viewed as equally important overseas sourcing partners for the West: both were named among the top three sourcing geographies by over a quarter of respondents headquartered in the US and the EU. India’s appeal as a sourcing partner goes far beyond textiles, says the survey. Viewed by industry, India as a supplier market was the most popular among businesses working in the Accessories, Jewelry and Eyewear sector (where 45% named it among their top three), followed by Promotional Products (44%). The Textile and Apparel sector, traditionally viewed as India’s “bread and butter”, came in third at 40%. Looking at businesses that significantly changed their buying geography, India was the destination of choice for multiple industries, including Printing and Packaging, Homeware and Gardenware, Accessories and Promotional Products. Between half and one-third of respondents in these sectors reported significantly increasing their sourcing from India in the past 12 months. Western buyers are carrying on the long-term trend of decreasing their reliance on China, as seen from the ever-shrinking percentage of respondents naming China among their top three sourcing partners: 73% of US-based buyers (a five-year low) and 85% of EU-based ones, as per the Qima survey. In terms of procurement volumes, 61% and 58% of US- and EU-based respondents, respectively, reporting buying less from China in Q1 2023 compared to 12 months ago. Yet, China still remains a key piece in global supply chains even as they shift to other countries. While the popularity of Made-in-China goods among Western buyers keeps inching downward (reaching a five-year low for US-based respondents), the reverse is true for businesses based in Asia (outside of China), where 85% of respondents named China among their top three sourcing partners in 2023, compared to 65% in 2019, as per the survey. The shift of Western supply chains away from China is likely a factor in this, as many of China’s regional competitors rely on Chinese raw materials to fill the orders being redirected to them.

US asks Israel to distinguish between Hamas terrorists, Palestinian civilians
Israel-Hamas war: US asks Netanyahu govt to distinguish between Hamas and Palestinian civilians The United States has called on the Israeli government to distinguish between Hamas terrorists and Palestinian civilians as Israel escalates its response to a surprise attack by Hamas on October 7th. In a press briefing on Tuesday, US State Department Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel emphasised the need for Israel to protect civilian lives more effectively. "We have raised directly with the Israeli Government about the need to distinguish between Hamas terrorists and Palestinian civilians. This is something that the Secretary has raised directly on his travels. We even laid out that we believe that there are commitments that can be made additionally on dealing with protecting civilian life more effectively, and we're watching very closely to make sure that happens," Patel stated. The US also clarified its stance on the "humanitarian pause" in Gaza, expressing the importance of ensuring that aid can enter Gaza without providing an opportunity for Hamas to regroup or hold hostages. Patel emphasised that Hezbollah and other malign actors should not exploit the situation to escalate the conflict. He said, "We have also been incredibly clear to Hizbollah and any other malign actors that they should not use this opportunity to widen this conflict. And when we're talking about a humanitarian pause, what we are talking about is conditions that simultaneously ensure that Hamas is not in a position in which it can regroup, restrengthen itself, position itself in a way to further conduct attacks on the Israeli people while also creating conditions that perhaps will allow for the further provision of humanitarian aid into Gaza that will perhaps allow conditions that other hostages can be released as well." He added further, "We want conditions created that will allow for the entrance of additional humanitarian aid into Gaza. We want the conditions to be such that will allow potentially for additional hostages to be released by Hamas." Meanwhile, the Israeli Foreign Ministry published data and said that Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip have fired more than 9,500 rockets at Israeli territory since Hamas launched its multi-pronged attack on the Jewish state one month ago Israel said the numbers are not final and are constantly being updated. Throughout Tuesday, multiple air-raid sirens were activated in central Israel and localities near the border with Gaza. Hamas is believed to be holding at least 239 people hostage in Gaza. Along with Israeli citizens, this figure includes 25 Thai nationals, 21 Argentinians, 18 Germans, 10 Americans, seven French, seven Russians, four Hungarians, three Poles, three Portuguese, two Brits, two Filipinos, two Romanians and two Tanzanians. In addition, the terror group is holding hostage individual nationals of Canada, Austria, Brazil, China, South Africa, Denmark, Ireland, Lithuania, Mexico, Nepal, the Netherlands, Serbia, Ukraine and Uruguay. More than 330,000 Israeli citizens have returned from abroad since the start of "Operation Swords of Iron," the Israel Airports Authority announced on Tuesday, increasing the Jewish state's population by almost 3.5 per cent. At the same time, Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics recorded a sharp decrease in foreigners, including tourists, entering the country. Approximately 98,600 visitors travelled to Israel in October, a decrease of 73 per cent compared to the same month in 2022. Since Oct. 7, the Israel Defence Forces has attacked over 14,000 terror targets in Gaza, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Daniel Hagari said on Tuesday night. Troops have killed "thousands of terrorists above and beneath the ground" in the coastal enclave, according to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu .

Lori Harvey and Damson Idris ends their one year relationship
Agencies The former pair said in a joint statement to the Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday that they had reached a time in their lives where each of their independent lives require full concentration and dedication. We separate ways, but our friendship endures because of our love and respect for one another and the time we had together. Harvey has deleted posts of Idris from her Instagram account. Harvey has a history of boasting about her past boyfriend. When the actor shared a picture of himself kissing Harvey on the cheek on Instagram stories in January, it ignited romance speculations between Harvey and Idris. The two were spotted enjoying Harvey's 26th birthday celebration at her star-studded soiree the next day. For several months afterward, their relationship seemed content and blissful, until in July, a rumor began to circulate that Harvey was seeing rapper Quavo . The story started after Steve Harvey 's stepson was seen leaving the same restaurant as the rapper while on a trip to Los Angeles . Soon after, there were reports circulating that Harvey and the Migos artist were romantically involved. However, Quavo and the owner of the swimsuit business denied the rumors. It's interesting to note that Harvey, who dated Michael B. Jordan before dating Idris, talked about wanting to give herself more time a month before she dated Idris.
