Discovery (WBD.O), examining the streaming giants market conduct and whether it exerted anti-competitive influence on creators during negotiations to acquire programming rights. The Justice Department is seeking to determine whether the deal "could materially reduce competition or be designed to create a monopoly, thereby violating Section 7 of the Clayton Act or Section 2 of the Sherman Act." According to sources familiar with the matter, the request has been sent to an independent film studio. This is the first clear indication that the Trump administration is no longer simply following standard procedures in its investigation of the acquisition, but rather employing a more in-depth investigative approach. This contradicts Netflixs claims in recent weeks that the government has not engaged in any procedures outside of normal procedures.

Before BoJ Ueda's Speech, GBP / JPY Struggles To Extend Above 163.00

It is difficult for the GBP / JPY pair to prolong its gains above 163.00 during the Asian session. Given that Bank of Japan (BoJ) Governor Nominee Kazuo Ueda is following in the footsteps of former BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, it is expected that the cross will resume its upward trend as investors cease supporting the Japanese Yen.

 

In his speech on Friday, BoJ Ueda stated that the current monetary policy is appropriate to maintain inflationary pressures. Despite reaching a multi-decade high, Japan's Consumer Price Index (CPI) is non-sticky due to the international forces propelling inflation. The accelerating price index in Japan is due to higher petroleum and food import prices, not domestic demand and wages, which should be the primary generators of inflation. The objective of the Japanese government was to develop a strategy for exiting the decade-long monetary policy with a new BoJ chairman. BoJ Ueda's dovish remarks, however, reduced long-term yen support wagers.

 

The term "ecosystem" refers to a group of people who work in the construction industry.

 

In the meantime, the British pound has moved sideways ahead of the anticipated announcement of a Brexit agreement by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and President Ursula von der Leyen of the European Commission. "The Prime Minister wants to ensure that any deal fixes the practical problems on the ground, ensures trade flows freely throughout the entire UK, protects Northern Ireland's place in our Union, and returns sovereignty to the people of Northern Ireland," Sunak's office said in a statement cited by Reuters.
