Fed’s year-end liquidity push calms US bond markets ahead of seasonal funding pressure

By purchasing short-dated Treasury bills, the Fed aims to enhance bank reserves, stabilize repo markets, and reduce funding pressure. Past year-end periods were marked by higher funding costs and liquidity strain. In contrast, this year's measures have eased repo rates, narrowed spreads, and lowered concerns of significant disruptions, suggesting a smoother transition into the new year.

Goldman Sachs overhaul takes two steps forward, one step back

Goldman Sachs is making progress in its strategy to increase lending and shift assets from its own balance sheet to fee-paying outside investors, aiming to generate steadier revenue and transition to a more reliable institution.

Tata to rethink Starbucks' outlet expansion strategy amid lower footfall

Tata to rethink Starbucks' outlet expansion strategy amid lower footfall An employee takes a customer's order at a Starbucks' outlet in New Delhi | Credit: Reuters India's Tata Consumer Products "will calibrate" its plans to open Starbucks stores in the near term at a time when fewer customers are walking into its cafes in the world's most populous country, its top boss said on Monday. City dwellers in India are cutting spending on everything from cookies and coffee to fast food as persistently high inflation squeezes middle class budgets, with wages failing to keep pace. Tata Starbucks, a joint venture between U.S. coffee brand Starbucks SBUX.Oand the Indian conglomerate, operates the largest cafe chain in the country with more than 450 outlets. Advertisement Starbucks has more than 40,000 stores globally. "We will calibrate for the short term ... In the near term there will be pressure," Tata Consumer CEO Sunil D'Souza told Reuters, adding that its Tata Starbucks joint venture is still focused on reaching its 2028 goal to operate 1,000 stores by 2028. However, Tata Consumer's CEO still expects its bet on coffee to pay off in the longer run as the country's coffee culture grows and cafe density is still low compared with other Asian countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines. Advertisement Separately, D'Souza also said Tata Consumer's revenue would increase in the double-digit percentage range in the second half of the financial year, with profit coming under pressure due to higher prices of raw materials, including tea.

Navigating Work-Life Balance Challenges Faced by Indian IT Employees Amidst Growing Productivity Pressures
