In Vitro Fertilization Market Research Report 2023-2030 - Insurance Providers Offering Coverage for IVF Treatments Spurs Global Market Expansion
Dublin, Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The"In Vitro Fertilization Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Instrument (Disposable Devices, Culture Media), By Procedure Type (Fresh Nondonor, Frozen Nondonor), By End-use, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030"report has been added toResearchAndMarkets.com'soffering.The global in vitro fertilization market size is expected to reach USD 37.4 billion by 2030. It is projected to register a CAGR of 5.72%from 2023 to 2030 The market's growth can be attributed to the continuous efforts of the market players, an increase in the incidence of infertility due to lifestyle changes, and government initiatives to improve reimbursement policies. The expansion of fertility procedures, such as ICSI for treating infertility, is expected to have a positive impact on market growth.Moreover, the availability of genomic testing facilities that enable the prevention of the transfer of genetic disorders during in vitro fertilization (IVF) is expected to drive the IVF market. The insurance providers are providing coverage for IVF procedures owing to an increase in the number of IVF treatments. For instance, in May 2023, Pacific Blue Cross introduced an enhanced Personal Health Insurance, a health & dental plan, which incorporates family planning benefits, including coverage for fertility drugs, fertility treatments, and adoption. With this enhancement, Pacific Blue Cross became the first and only provider in Canada to offer family planning benefits as part of an individual health & dental plan. This led to competitive pricing and moderated the IVF treatment costs. The procedure has been a successfully practiced technology, driving the market with more treatment automation and standardization.A decline in the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) results from factors, such as a behavioral shift in society. These factors include a shift from rural to urban societies, increased age of the first pregnancy, postponement of marriage, increased employment, and lower marriage rates. In March 2020, in-person fertility treatments in the U.S. and Canada were suspended due to COVID-19 by the American Society of Reproductive Medicine and Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society. However, treatment is resuming in many countries with the ease of COVID-19 restrictions. The research findings published by the Obstetrics & Gynecology journal in January 2022 reported that COVID-19 vaccines wouldn't harm IVF outcomes. This is expected to prove significant in promoting the uptake of IVF in eligible vaccinated individuals.In Vitro Fertilization Market Report Highlights Company Profiles: Overview, Financial Performance, Service Benchmarking, Strategic Initiatives Key Attributes: Key Topics Covered:Chapter 1.

Turbo-Charge Your Returns With These 3 Preferred Closed-End Funds
Book with page about preferred stock. Trading concept. The Fed “pause” is on—and that means we’re this much closer to the first rate cut since the COVID-caused race to zero. It’ll soon be “game on” for fixed income of all sorts. And that includes one class of stock that has been kicked deep into value territory—giving us a potential one-two punch of high income (6.9% to 9.2% yields) and a violent bounce off the bottom. More on these sweet payouts in just a second. A High-Yield Way to Ride Powell’s Coattails Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and his henchmen at the central bank recently made the call to keep the benchmark fed funds rate level—a clear acknowledgement that the economy is indeed slowing. The next step in this dance is a recession. At that point, you should expect the Fed to flip and send interest rates in reverse. When that happens, discarded fixed income will finally have its day. I like several areas of fixed income right now, but one opportunity that might be ripest at present is preferred stocks, which have become attractively priced thanks to a nearly two-year bear market. Their income potential is simply spectacular: I love preferred stocks because they combine several factors of both stocks and bonds to create a powerful combo equity. For instance, like common stocks, preferred stocks trade on an exchange and represent equity in the issuing company. But like bonds, preferreds typically don’t trade violently up and down—instead, they trade around a par value. They also usually don’t provide voting rights. And while preferred stocks pay dividends, the amount of income they pay remains fixed. They also offer a few unique perks, including: While I do occasionally dabble in individual preferred stocks, most investors are better off buying a diversified bucket of them via funds. Like bonds, preferreds also are extremely difficult for individual investors to value and analyze due to little data and even less news and analysis. If you really want to turbo-charge your preferred returns, consider closed-end funds (CEFs). While you can buy preferred mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), preferred CEFs benefit from agile active management, the ability to use debt leverage (which can juice returns and yields), and the possibility of buying funds at a discount to their net asset value (NAV). Case in point: I’m going to introduce you to three preferred-stock CEFs that are yielding a fat 8.4% on average at present. Nuveen Preferred & Income Term Fund (JPI) I want to start with the Nuveen Preferred & Income Term Fund (JPI), which is a pretty straightforward preferred-stock play, but with a couple twists and turns. JPI’s portfolio typically has to invest at least 80% of assets in preferred stocks and other income-producing securities—while that’s a wide net, management typically sticks to preferreds and convertible securities. Similar to most preferred funds, JPI is beholden to the financial sector. Indeed, its top five industries—which collectively make up 80% of assets—all belong to the sector: diversified and regional banks, insurance, capital markets, and financial services. Credit quality is unremarkable, but I’ll point out that it is better than the ETF benchmark, the iShares Preferred and Income Securities ETF (PFF PFF ). Some 70% of JPI’s preferreds are investment-grade; it’s less than 55% for PFF. JPI’s twist and turns come from its nature as a closed-end fund. It has management, which can be flexible—that compares to virtually all preferred ETFs, which are tethered to a restrictive index. It uses leverage—a ton of it, in fact. Current leverage of 37% is extremely high; CEFs rarely eclipse 40%. And it trades at a 6% discount to NAV that, while not scintillating, is twice as deep as its five-year average discount (3%). You’re also getting a fund that has outperformed PFF over the long haul. Despite all this, JPI isn’t a total home run. For one, you can simply look at the chart and tell that JPI isn’t nearly as calm as your traditional preferred fund—all that leverage makes it jumpy, which means while you might be getting better long-term performance, you’re getting a lot more short-term volatility. (And for many investors, lower volatility is one of the perks of preferreds.) You won’t be able to hold JPI for very long, anyways. This is a term fund whose time will end next summer—on or before Aug. 31, 2024, the fund will liquidate and distribute its net assets to shareholders. Lastly, let’s look at JPI’s distribution: It’s not uncommon for preferred-stock fund dividends to change over time, and preferred-stock CEF distributions in general have shrunk over the past few years. But JPI’s income “shrinkage” is something to behold. So, let’s look at two other funds whose payouts aren’t hemorrhaging ground. Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund (LDP) The Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund (LDP) is a little quirky. It holds preferreds, sure, but it’s a “limited-duration” fund. Most preferred stocks are perpetual in nature, which means they don’t really have a duration. But LDP selects from preferred stocks that do have expiration dates (and thus durations), and it buys preferreds whose durations are on the shorter side. The average modified duration of Morningstar’s MORN preferred stock fund category is over 8 years; LDP’s is a hair over 3. So, LDP has a slightly better credit profile than iShares’ preferred ETF and it sticks to shorter-duration issues, which in theory should depress its income-generating ability—but thanks to a hefty use of leverage, this Nuveen CEF can offer up a 9% yield. It also trades at a fat 10% discount that’s 3x its historical rate, and it too has historically outrun the benchmark. Cohen & Steers Tax-Advantaged Preferred Securities and Income Fund (PTA) The trio’s biggest yield belongs to another CS fund: the Cohen & Steers Tax-Advantaged Preferred Securities and Income Fund (PTA). It’s also the youngest of the three, having come to life in October 2020. But in its short publicly traded life, it’s also the worst-performing: But why? Despite what you might assume from the “tax-advantaged” in PTA’s name, there’s nothing terribly special about the fund’s goals. The CEF attempts to “achieve favorable after-tax returns for its shareholders by seeking to minimize the U.S. federal income tax consequences on income generated by the Fund.” And it accomplishes that in two ways: The resulting portfolio is pretty cut-and-dry, too. PTA’s roughly 240 preferreds are predominantly from the financial sector. There is quite a bit of international exposure, though—about 40% of assets are preferreds from Canada, France, the U.K., and other places outside the U.S., which is about 10-15 points more ex-U.S. exposure than your typical preferred fund. Credit quality is a little low, though; less than half of assets are investment-grade. And leverage is high at nearly 40%. The result has been a volatile and disappointing first three years for PTA’s managers, who have little to show for their “tax-advantaged” focus. So despite a high yield and a decent 7% discount to NAV, there’s not much to get excited about here. Brett Owens is chief investment strategist for Contrarian Outlook.

Asian stocks surge, dollar slumps as traders cheer inflation surprise
PTI U.S. retail sales data are the next focus for markets, although analysts think that even a positive number is unlikely to dampen the euphoria over the prospective end of the rate hike cycle. SINGAPORE: Asian stocks leapt while the dollar was nursing its heaviest losses in a year on Wednesday, as steady U.S. inflation figures boosted investor confidence that the Federal Reserve was done hiking interest rates and may start cutting early next year. U.S. headline consumer prices were flat in October, against expectations for a 0.1% rise. Core CPI, at 0.2%, also came in below a forecast of 0.3%. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was up 1.9% in early trade. Japan's Nikkei was up 1.8%. Overnight the Nasdaq jumped 2.4%, bonds surged and the dollar slumped more than 1.6% on the euro. "This was - unequivocally - good news on the inflation front," Sam Rines, managing director at research firm CORBU in Texas, said in a note to clients. "But the relevant question now is: 'Can it get any better?'" Interest rate futures swung sharply higher as traders priced out any chance of further rate hikes and foresaw a cut as early as May, with some chance it could come even sooner, in March. Two-year Treasury yields, which closely track short-term rate expectations, dived more than 22 basis points (bps) on Tuesday and held steady at 4.84% in Tokyo trade on Wednesday. Ten-year yields fell 19 bps overnight and touched an almost two-month low of 4.43% in Asia, having tumbled below support at 4.5%. Yields fall when bond prices climb. In foreign exchange trade, the dollar suffered its heaviest selling in 12 months, with the sharpest losses against risk-sensitive currencies such as the Australian dollar. The Aussie leapt 2% overnight and was steady at $0.6496 in Asia. The New Zealand dollar held on to a 2.2% gain, at $0.60. The euro broke above $1.08 and even the battered yen rallied to 150.5 per dollar. The detail of the data offered extra cheer to investors, with evidence of rent rises moderating. Car prices fell and a downtrend in six-month annualised core inflation remained intact. "This reading will likely confirm, in our view, that the Fed is now on hold on rates," said Chetan Seth, strategist at Nomura. "Recent U.S. labour market and inflation reports suggest an economy that is softening, but not collapsing, and bond yields and oil prices have moderated, thus reducing hard-landing risks (for the economy next year)." On the other side of the world, China's central bank boosted liquidity injections on Wednesday, although it kept the interest rate unchanged when rolling over maturing medium-term policy loans. The yuan held near a two-month high. In Japan, the Bank of Japan stepped back and pared its regular bond buying as markets rallied. Ten-year Japanese government bond yields hit a one-month low of 0.775%. U.S. retail sales data are the next focus for markets, although analysts think that even a positive number is unlikely to dampen the euphoria over the prospective end of the rate hike cycle. "With so many disinflationary forces (including softening labour markets in the U.S. and Canada) it feels to me the market will run with this number and even a strong retail sales release ... cannot derail the soft landing / 1995 vibes," Spectra Markets President Brent Donnelly said in a note.

Churchill Resources Commences 5,000m Drilling at Taylor Brook; Completes $2,600,000 Private Placement
TORONTO, Nov. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Churchill Resources Inc. (“Churchill” or the “Company”) (TSXV: CRI) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced on the planned 5,000m program at its Taylor Brook Ni-Co-Cu project in western Newfoundland, Canada. The Company has also completed the second and final tranche of its previously announced, upsized non-brokered private placement of units of the Company (the “Units”) raising gross proceeds of $2,600,000 (the“Private Placement”). Drilling is Underway at Taylor Brook Churchill’s previously announced 5,000m drilling program has commenced at Taylor Brook. MCL Drilling of Deer Lake, Newfoundland and Labrador, is currently at site with one rig and drilling has started with hole TB23-06E, one of five holes planned thus far targeting resistivity low features at depths of between 175m and 625m below surface. Please refer to Churchill’s October 26, 2023 press release for more details. Geophysical Surveying and Other Fieldwork Continues Targeting for Churchill’s drill program is expected to be further refined by ongoing CSAMT surveys and other field work running in parallel as drilling proceeds: Paul Sobie, CEO of Churchill, said: “We are searching for district-scale, high-grade (and high tenor) Ni-Co-Cu sulphide systems; our results to date reinforce that Taylor Brook is a target-rich environment with enormous potential. For the first time at Layden, drilling at depth will test substantial conductor targets beneath known high grade nickel sulphide mineralization, hosted by similar and related magmatic rock. Across the Taylor Brook property, our geophysical surveying and other field work will continue in parallel as drilling proceeds, including advancing the LIT-1 and TBSL-1 anomalies to drill targets, as well as identifying new targets for follow-up along the entire prospective corridor.” The Private Placement The Private Placement consisted of the sale of 52,000,000 Units at a price of $0.05 per Unit for gross proceeds of $2,600,000, of which 40,000,000 Units were offered and sold pursuant to tranche two of the Private Placement, each Unit comprised of one common share of Churchill (each, a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share at a price of $0.15 at any time prior to the date which is two years following the completion of the Private Placement. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement for exploration activities on the Company’s key projects located in Newfoundland & Labrador and general corporate purposes. The Securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a statutory holder period of four months and one day. Early Warning Disclosure An early warning report will be filed in connection with the Private Placement by Mr. Malik Easah, who acquired 20,000,000 Units in the second tranche for investment purposes. Prior to the completion of the Private Placement, Mr Easah held, directly or indirectly, and/or had control or direction over an aggregate of 3,791,000 common shares, representing 3.72% on a non-diluted basis and partially diluted basis. Upon completion of the Private Placement, Mr Easah holds directly or indirectly, and/or has control and direction over 23,791,000 common shares and 10,000,000 common share purchase warrants, representing 16.76% of the outstanding common shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis. Mr Easah has also entered into a contractual lock-up with the Company which would prevent the exercise of any of the Warrants acquired pursuant to the Private Placement if such exercise would result in Mr Easah owning, or exercising control or direction over, at least 20% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis. Depending on market conditions, general economic and industry conditions, the Company’s business and financial condition, and/or other relevant factors, Mr. Easah may increase or decrease his beneficial ownership of securities of the Company through market transactions, private agreements, or otherwise. A copy of the early warning report filed will be available under the Company’s profile atwww.sedar.com. About Churchill Resources Inc.

91% of banks and insurers have initiated their cloud journey, yet many are unable to realize full business value
Press Contact:Fahd PashaTel.: +1 647 860 3777E-mail:Fahd.Pasha@capgemini.com 91% of banks and insurers have initiated their cloud journey, yet many are unable to realize full business value Paris, November 16, 2023 – The inaugural Capgemini Research Institute’sWorld Cloud Report –Financial Services, published today, reveals 91% of banks and insurance companies have now initiated their cloud journey, a significant increase from 2020, when only 37% of firms had embarked on their cloud transformations. However, this high rate and its corresponding investment does not translate to effective cloud adoption at scale. More than 50% of firms surveyed have only moved a minimal portion of their core business applications to the cloud. Today, 89% of financial services executives believe that a cloud-enabled platform is crucial for delivering the agility, flexibility, innovation, and productivity necessary to meet escalating business demands. Yet, most firms are still not cloud-native1and instead tend to opt for a “lift and shift”2approach that hinders the full benefits of cloud-based systems’ scalability and flexibility advantages. Implementing cloud at scale is critical to harvest full value of AI investmentsNearly two-in-three financial services firms (62%) have started using artificial intelligence (AI), with a target to utilize it across the full value chain in the next two years. Despite their potential, AI, including generative AI and machine learning technologies, are yet to be used at scale in the financial services industry and therefore are having limited impact. The research found that to date much of the cloud investments have been applied towards modern, user-friendly, AI-based, customer-facing applications. Fewer investments are made in back-end core processing systems that are providing inputs to consumer-facing front end applications, resulting in a poor overall user experience. According to the report, the migration of internal core systems to suitable cloud-enabled ecosystems and platforms is critical to unlock the complete potential and efficiency of AI and generative AI. In return, this will spark the emergence of a wider range of business growth opportunities over the coming years. Today, in banking and insurance, firms are testing their generative AI use cases across customer onboarding, credit analysis, financial planning, policy renewals and to support client servicing models. Cloud plays a pivotal role in driving ESG impactWith 95% of firms now factoring ESG impact into all key investment decisions, the cloud also has a pivotal role to play in aiding the industry’s effective management of ESG reporting to help achieve their sustainability goals. It can equip them with essential ESG impact measurement tools, as seen by 51% of financial services firms citing improved transparency and reporting measures. Cloud providers are starting to develop solutions that can track and report scope 1, 2 and 3 level emissions, offering comprehensive visibility into a firm’s carbon footprint across business functions and products. “For today’s financial services organization, ignoring the cloud is simply not an option. Moving to the cloud requires looking beyond a cost-savings approach and being centered around driving innovation to gain a competitive edge,” said Ravi Khokhar, Global Head of Cloud for Financial Services at Capgemini.“As companies race to adapt and implement generative AI, they need to be mindful that there will be no future AI benefits to be realized without cloud-enabled systems. By defining and establishing an effective cloud target operating model at scale, the full potential of these transformational new technologies can be harnessed.” Risk management and customer relationship management dominate cloud migration prioritiesIndustry executives surveyed in this report across health insurance, life insurance, capital markets, payments, retail banks and wealth management, identify risk management and customer relationship management (CRM) amongst their top three areas ripe for early cloud adoption. In wealth management, over half (60%) cite benefits in relying on cloud-enabled fraud detection techniques to make data-driven risk-management decisions. Likewise, more than one-third of retail banking executives (39%) emphasize transitioning complex credit risk management to the cloud to shorten loan processing decision time, through cloud-enabled automated processes and integrated analytics. Insurers are exploring data-driven personalized value-added services, such as roadside assistance, to align with evolving customer preferences. Among life insurance executives, customer relationship management (55%) stands out as the highest priority for their cloud journey. Data security and cost challenges constrain effective cloud adoption at scaleDespite significant advantages, industry executives express concerns about the challenges associated with cloud migration. Two-thirds (68%) identify data security as a barrier to adopting cloud solutions, while 51% point to high operational and transformation costs as potential obstacles. An additional 45% mention regulations, such as data sovereignty, as another factor that may pose challenges. Recently, the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) mandated that financial institutions subject to European Union (EU) regulations must rigorously implement, document, and uphold the requisite systems, protocols, and tools to provide sufficient reliability, capacity, and resilience. Sovereign cloud, which provides secure and independent cloud computing infrastructure to countries to help them ensure data privacy and sovereignty, is therefore fast becoming a common deployment option. To address these concerns, 39% of executives reported a preference to leverage public cloud, 49% prefer private cloud, and the remaining 12% think hybrid cloud is the best option. Report MethodologyThe World Cloud Report for Financial Services 2023 cites global data and analysis of two primary research surveys as well as more than 30 interviews with FS executives and hyperscalers / cloud technology providers; it also took input from Capgemini’s subject matter experts across more than 20 countries. The two surveys polled financial services industry (FSI) and technology ecosystem respondents.

Aegon’s trading update for third quarter 2023
Please clickhereto access all 3Q 2023 Trading Update related documentsThe Hague, November 16, 2023 - Continued commercial momentum in US business and increased capital generation Lard Friese, Aegon CEO, commented:“For the third quarter in a row, we saw continued commercial momentum in the US and strong overall operating capital generation which benefited from exceptional items. We expect the full-year 2023 operating capital generation from the units to be around EUR 1.2 billion; up from the previous guidance of more than EUR 1.0 billion. I am proud of what the teams have achieved so far and would like to express my gratitude to my colleagues for all of their hard work. As outlined at our Capital Markets Day 2023 in June, a key strategic focus is to ensure that our US business, Transamerica, reaches its full potential. In the third quarter, Transamerica’s Strategic Assets have continued to deliver growth. Individual Solutions generated new life sales of USD 118 million, an increase of 10% compared with the prior year period. World Financial Group’s (WFG) sales force grew by 17% compared with a year earlier to almost 70,000 licensed agents. Workplace Solutions more than doubled its written sales of mid-sized retirement plans to USD 1.8 billion compared with the same period last year. We expect that this progress in the middle market will translate into higher gross deposits in the coming quarters. These are important achievements in our ambition to build America’s leading middle market life insurance and retirement company. Our joint venture in Brazil, Mongeral Aegon Group, also delivered strong growth, with new life sales almost doubling to EUR 49 million compared with the year ago period. This follows our recent investment that increased Aegon’s economic ownership of Mongeral Aegon Group to almost 60%. Results at Aegon’s UK Retail business continued to be affected by reduced customer activity because of the current macro-economic environment, as well as an industry-wide reduction of transfers from defined benefit to defined contribution pensions. Our UK Workplace segment saw continued high levels of inflows due to the onboarding of new schemes and higher net deposits on existing schemes. However, these were more than offset by the departure of a large, low margin pension scheme. While results at Aegon Asset Management (Aegon AM) continued to be affected by adverse investor sentiment across the industry, we did see positive net flows at our Chinese asset management partnership. We are adapting to the reality of current market conditions and have taken cost reduction measures in our Global Platform business that we expect will improve Aegon AM’s performance. In addition, as a result of its asset management partnership with a.s.r., Aegon AM has further strengthened its leading positions in Alternative Fixed Income and Retirement Investment Solutions in the Netherlands. Transamerica continued to reduce its exposure to Financial Assets and to improve the level and predictability of its capital generation. A clear example is the ongoing program of purchasing institutionally owned universal life policies to reduce the mortality risk of the portfolio. At the end of the third quarter, 20% of the face value of this book had been purchased, which is half of the amount targeted by 2027. Finally, at the end of September, Aegon moved its legal seat to Bermuda and in doing sobecame a Bermuda entity: Aegon Ltd. Following this, responsibility for Aegon’s group supervision moved to the Bermuda Monetary Authority. As we move to the fourth quarter, our continued commercial performance and operating capital generation provides Aegon with a solid basis as it continues with the next chapter of its transformation. And, while many things have recently changed in our company, our focus remains the same: delivering value to all of our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders.” Additional information PresentationThe conference call presentation is available onaegon.comas of 7.00 am CET.

Australian Intelligence Report Identifies China as Major Backer of Cyber Crime
By Phil Mercer November 15, 2023 Australia's digital spy agency has identified China as the major backer of serious hacking against Australian companies and critical infrastructure. The Australian Signals Directorate, or ASD, Wednesday released its cyber threat report for the past year. It stated that serious attacks on federal government agencies or critical infrastructure that led to the "extensive compromise" of sensitive data have increased from two to five in the past year. The ASD report identifies China as a major conspirator, followed by Russia and Iran. In the community, more Australians are reporting being targeted by cyber criminals. Almost 94,000 reports of cyber crime were made to law enforcement agencies by individuals and businesses across the country, a rise of 23 percent from the previous year. The period of review includes last year's high-profile breaches at Australia's second-largest telecommunications company, Optus, and its biggest health insurance firm, Medibank. The ASD is also working with port operator DP World, whose computer systems were infiltrated by unknown or unidentified hackers, causing the closure of major Australian ports over the weekend. Richard Marles, Australia's deputy prime minister and defense minister, told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Wednesday that the government is boosting its efforts to deter foreign-based hackers. "From a government point of view, we are seeing state actors showing more interest in our critical infrastructure and so, you know, we are investing $10 billion (Australian) dollars over 10 years to the Australian Signals Directorate, which effectively sees a doubling in its size to bolster our cyber capacity, to bolster our cyber defenses," he said. Marles acknowledged that while China is Australia's largest trading partner, it is also "a source of security anxiety for our country." In May, Australia joined its Five Eyes intelligence sharing network, which includes the United States and Britain, in identifying China as responsible for cyber attacks on infrastructure in the U.S. Canada and New Zealand are also part of the alliance. So far, there has been no response from authorities in Beijing over the claims of China's complicity in global cyber attacks. The ASD report also highlighted the actions of Russian criminals during the war in Ukraine as an example of state-supported cyber attacks. It states, "Destructive malware was...used against critical infrastructure in Ukraine."

Cryptocurrency prices surge, driven by a potential bitcoin fund
Reuters In a Manhattan courtroom this month, the cryptocurrency industry faced a reckoning as its onetime star, Sam Bankman-Fried, was convicted of fraud in a trial that put the industry’s excesses on vivid display. But the ever-volatile crypto markets were already moving on. Shortly before Bankman-Fried’s verdict landed on Nov. 2, the price of bitcoin surpassed $35,000, its highest level since an industry meltdown in 2022. Last week, ether, the second-most popular digital currency, surged 10% to around $2,100, its best performance in months. Some investors rushed to declare the end of the so-called crypto winter of falling prices and financial scandals that have plagued the industry for the last 18 months. Driving the renewed euphoria? A potential new fund. Did you Know? SAP has launched a new enterprise on the Metaverse with the aim of accelerating cloud adoption among Indian firms. The interactive and immersive ‘cloud on wheels’ platform will enable customers to experience the full range of SAP’s offerings and reimagine processes for improved business outcomes. View Details  » Crypto investors are growing optimistic that the Securities and Exchange Commission will approve an exchange traded fund, or ETF, that tracks the price of bitcoin, analysts said. The fund would trade on traditional stock exchanges and offer an easy way for people to invest in cryptocurrencies, potentially bringing a wave of money into the industry. Some proponents have hailed the possibility of this new investment vehicle, known as a spot bitcoin ETF, as crypto’s “salvation.” In August, Grayscale Investments, a crypto asset manager, scored a legal victory over the SEC that seemed to pave the way for it to offer the bitcoin product. And last week, BlackRock, a giant money manager, filed paperwork to establish a similar ETF to track the price of ether, another cryptocurrency. These new funds “could represent a watershed,” said Michael Sonnenshein, Grayscale’s CEO. “We’re already starting to see quite a few signs of the crypto winter melting.” The crypto industry has yearned for good news since last year’s market collapse, which erased billions of dollars in savings practically overnight. But approval of a bitcoin ETF is not guaranteed, and some analysts have cast doubt on whether it would draw much new investment to the crypto world. The fixation on the new fund also underscores how far crypto has drifted from its anti-establishment roots. Bitcoin was created 15 years ago as an alternative to the traditional financial system and a tool to undermine powerful Wall Street interests. Now some bitcoin enthusiasts are celebrating giant financial firms like BlackRock as the industry’s saviors. “The hypocrisy is just maddening,” said John Reed Stark, a former SEC official and outspoken critic of the crypto industry. “It’s anathema to why bitcoin was created in the first place.” An exchange traded fund is essentially a bundle of assets split up into shares that investors can buy and sell on the open market. Rather than buy bitcoin directly through a crypto exchange like Coinbase, investors in a bitcoin ETF would own shares in a fund that contains the cryptocurrency, eliminating the need to worry about storing any bitcoin in a digital wallet. Crypto proponents have pursued a bitcoin ETF for more than a decade. In 2017, the SEC denied an ETF application by crypto entrepreneurs Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, who had been working on the project for years. The industry kept battling. In 2021, the SEC approved ETFs that bet on the future prices of bitcoin without holding the currency itself. But the agency rejected an effort by Grayscale to introduce the first ETF linked directly to bitcoin, arguing that the crypto markets were subject to manipulation and other consumer risks. Grayscale challenged the SEC in federal court in June 2022. The legal battle ended this August, when a panel of judges ruled in favor of the company, deeming the SEC’s actions “arbitrary and capricious.” Since that ruling, two key offices within the SEC that oversee the ETF application process have worked with companies that want to create bitcoin ETFs, three people familiar with the matter said. The agency’s posture has fueled optimism, two of them said, because the regulators are asking detailed, technical questions that suggest the process has reached an advanced stage. (Some aspects of the talks were previously reported by CoinDesk.) An official approval could arrive as early as January, analysts at Bloomberg have predicted. Sonnenshein of Grayscale said he had observed a high “level of understanding and engagement” from the SEC. “For us, it really continues to be a matter of when, not a matter of if,” he said. A spokesperson for the SEC declined to comment. Grayscale is one of several firms seeking to offer crypto ETFs. Fidelity, the asset manager, has a pending application for a bitcoin fund . BlackRock has applied to create its own bitcoin ETF, as well as the one linked to ether. Crypto investors are hoping that the approval of bitcoin and ether ETFs will bring billions of dollars of new money into the industry. Skeptics abound. JPMorgan analysts published a report last week that called crypto’s recent surge “overdone” and argued that an ETF approval would simply redistribute the capital that traders have already put into the industry, rather than attracting new investment. Crypto ETFs that trade in Canada and Europe “have gained little interest from investors since their inception,” the report said. But the enthusiasm in crypto markets has continued unabated. On Monday, the crypto news website The Block reported that BlackRock had applied to introduce an ETF tracking the price of XRP, a digital currency that has been the subject of years of litigation between its issuer, Ripple, and the SEC. XRP’s priced jumped by more than 10%. Crypto fans celebrated on X, the website formerly known as Twitter. But the news wasn’t true: An unknown trickster had filed false paperwork that listed the name of one of BlackRock’s executives.
