More than 63,000 acres of north Louisiana forestland are part of a new 10-year deal to sell carbon credits to a French petrochemical and natural gas exporter with operations in the Baton Rouge area and southwest Louisiana. And the chief executive officer of the carbon credit company that was part of the deal says he expects continued interest from big industrial companies in voluntary credit sales involving Louisiana forests, though U.S. environmental policy is beginning to shift away from climate regulation. TotalEnergies has inked the deal with the Arkansas-based NativState to enroll in 13 long-term forest management plans across 247,000 acres in…

In 2025, one of the worst-performing UK shares has, so far, been Severfield (LSE:SFR). Since the start of the year, the stock’s fallen by almost 40%. And anyone who was unlucky enough to buy shares in November 2024 has seen their investment dip by over 60%.…

Image source: Getty Images Passive income ideas come in all shapes and sizes. One I like for its simplicity is putting money into shares of proven businesses that I hope can pay me dividends in future. It is an idea I use myself and helps explain why I own shares such as Diageo. But while Diageo has grown its dividend annually for decades, there is no guarantee that it will keep doing so in future.

As such, heeding his advice during periods of market volatility is likely a prudent move, especially for investors allocating capital to US stocks today. 2025’s been a remarkable year for the S&P 500. Despite macroeconomic uncertainty, US stocks have continued to climb and reach record highs. That’s been fantastic for investors, but there’s a risk that it might not last for much longer.
