Concentrated power at the top of businesses remains a red flag

Investors in Europe prefer the separation of chair and CEO roles, but some companies like Vistry are challenging this tradition. Vistry plans to combine the roles of executive chair and CEO, going against the UK corporate governance code. This move has sparked debate about the effectiveness of all-powerful bosses and the balance between decisive leadership and hubris. While some argue that combining the roles can lead to better decision-making, others believe it undermines corporate governance principles.

How a complicated regulatory landscape hurting startups selling food, clothes & wellness products made from hemp

Hemp gets a bad rap due to its infamous cousin marijuana. To make matters worse, they look somewhat alike. They both belong to the cannabis sativa family. While marijuana plants are short and bushy with broad leaves, hemp is taller with thinner leaves that are concentrated at the top of the plant. But the crucial difference is in the quantum of a psychoactive compound called tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

Byju’s CFO was tasked with changing auditor amid deteriorating ties with Deloitte, sources say

According to sources, the CFO of BYJU'S, India's prominent edtech startup, was allegedly given the responsibility of changing the company's auditor. This development comes in the wake of recent corporate governance lapses at BYJU'S, including the resignation of Deloitte Haskins & Sells as the auditor. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs is reportedly examining these governance issues. While an auditor stepping down is a red flag for a company, Deloitte’s resignation was in the works after relations broke down between the big four audit giant and Byju’s.

Chartist Talks: Mid, Smallcap indices may throw a surprise party, but consolidation likely in Nifty, says Sudeep Shah of SBI Securities

Sudeep Shah, Deputy Vice-President and Head of Technical and Derivative Research at SBI Securities, suggests adopting a cautious stance in the Nifty 50 index as it is likely to enter a consolidation phase after a strong upside rally.

Shah predicts the Bank Nifty index to outperform frontline indices and reach levels of 53,200 and 53,600 in the short term. In the midcap and small cap space, a Bullish Flag pattern breakout is expected for Nifty Midcap 100 and Nifty Small Cap 100 indices.

With smugglers and front companies, China is skirting US AI bans

In Shenzhen, China, vendors at a market are openly selling microchips that power artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, which the US is trying to keep out of Chinese hands.

The fear is that these chips could accelerate China's military advancements and pose potential threats in terms of cyberattacks and battlefield decision-making. The US is enforcing bans on the export of AI chips, but the effectiveness of these restrictions remains challenging.
