In Agatha Christie’s mystery novel Hallowe’en Party, a young guest who may have witnessed a murder drowns in an apple-bobbing basket. In the wrong place at the wrong time, the unfortunate partygoer’s fate is a metaphor for that of the unlucky investor who bites into a losing stock and tastes the consequences. Taking a page from Benjamin Graham and David Dodd, Howard Marks, CFA, co-chair and co-founder of Oaktree Capital Management, describes fixed-income investing as “a negative art”: Success depends not on finding winners but on avoiding losers, on not buying those companies likely to default on loans and drag…

By Kate Abnett and Alison Withers BRUSSELS (Reuters) – This year is “virtually certain” to eclipse 2023 as the world’s warmest since records began, the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) said on Thursday. The data was released ahead of next week’s U.N. COP29 climate summit in Azerbaijan, where countries will try to agree a huge increase in funding to tackle climate change. Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential election has dampened expectations for the talks. C3S said that from January to October, the average global temperature had been so high that 2024 was sure to be the…
MANILA (Reuters) – The Philippine economy grew 5.2% in the third quarter from a year earlier, data showed on Thursday, slowing from the previous quarter as bad weather delayed some government spending and affected agricultural output.

His victory speech highlighted America’s vast reserves of “liquid gold,” emphasizing the country’s oil and gas resources over renewable energy alternatives. This move has caused climate activists to be concerned about how the world’s largest economy will…

McGruer, a financial advisor with Investia Financial Services Inc. in Ottawa, said his family was preparing to move when they found a Trump-branded jewelry box among their effects; it contained a bag of shiny cat’s eyes. “We said, ‘Oh, we found Trump’s marbles,” McGruer said in an interview. “He’s lost them, we found them.’” McGruer believes both U.S. presidential candidates left a lot to be desired. “Neither of the party leaders had any sense of what is the proper foundation for political positions, rooted in the origins of the country — the [U.S.] Constitution and the Declaration of Independence,” McGruer…
