Indonesia’s President Prabowo Subianto has issued a new decree to restart international carbon emission trading after a four year hiatus, according to a copy of the decree seen by Reuters on Wednesday. The Southeast Asian country issued carbon market rules in 2021 that focused on compliance carbon markets rather than transactions in voluntary markets. The rule effectively put an end to all cross-border carbon emission credit trading, including those generated from big projects like the Katingan Mentaya conservation project. Indonesia said the moratorium allowed the country to give priority to meeting its own greenhouse gas reduction targets rather than sell…
Image source: Getty Images The BT Group (LSE: BT.A) share price has gained 27% so far in 2025. But it’s been falling back a bit in the past few months, and that’s making me perk up and think I might be seeing an attractive buying opportunity.

But the goddess of victory hasn’t been winning lately. Since October 2024, the group’s share price has fallen 17%. Compared to October 2020 — when the world was coming to terms with the pandemic — Nike’s shares are down 47%. A £10,000 investment made five years ago, would now be worth £5,300. What’s gone wrong?

Image source: Getty Images Dividend shares are stocks that pay out part of their profits regularly to shareholders to signal financial strength and attract investment. For many income-focused investors, these shares are the backbone of passive income streams — but they aren’t all reliable. Here are three mistakes to avoid when picking dividend shares for passive income. 1.

There’s a lot of reason for optimism about the update, but things might look different afterwards. The end of the $7,500 EV sales credit in the US on 30 September caused a surge of demand last month, which could result in a strong earnings update.
