May 2 - Preliminary vessel tracking data from LSEG shows a significant jump in U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to Asia in April. As conflict in the Middle East constrained production in the region, U.S. producers effectively filled the gap left by reduced supply from Middle Eastern exporters. Nearly a quarter of total U.S. LNG exports went to Asia that month. Data shows that since the U.S. and Israels strikes against Iran, U.S. LNG shipments to Asia have increased by more than 175%; specifically, exports climbed from approximately 970,000 tons in February to 1.99 million tons in March, and further increased to 2.71 million tons in April.According to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), in the week ending April 28, equity fund managers reduced their net long positions in the S&P 500 CME by 21,368 contracts to 999,182 contracts.

"On one hand, this capability allows companies to address vulnerabilities they identify themselves, thereby enhancing cybersecurity," Bowman said. "But on the other hand, if used maliciously, it could be used to identify and exploit weaknesses." Anthropic has limited the release of its latest artificial intelligence model as it assesses safeguards against this powerful new technology. This model has also prompted Trump administration officials to consider the possibility of cyberattacks threatening financial stability.US President Trump: No authorization is needed for action against Iran.

Bitcoin falls below $19,000 as cryptos creak under rate hike risk

On Monday, cryptocurrency prices hit new lows as a result of regulatory worries and a general investor reluctance to engage in risky assets due to impending interest rate increases.


By market value, Bitcoin, the most valuable cryptocurrency, dropped almost 5% to a three-month low of $18,387.


The second-largest cryptocurrency, ethereum, lost 3% to a two-month low of $1,285 and had lost more than 10% in the previous day. The majority of the smaller tokens had larger losses.


Over the weekend, a significant update to the Ethereum blockchain—which supports the ether token—called the Merge changed how transactions are handled and reduced energy consumption.


The value of the token has decreased amid rumors that comments made last week by Gary Gensler, chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, suggested the new structure would draw further regulation. The upgrades' surrounding trades were likewise unwound.


The regulatory outlook is guesswork, according to Matthew Dibb, COO of Singapore's Stack Funds cryptocurrency platform.


Since the Merge, the markets have shed a lot of their excitement, he said. Given the uneasy global background, he said, "It's truly been a sell-the-news sort of event," and predicted that ether will test $950 in the near future.


"From a basic and technological standpoint, the current situation does not appear promising. There isn't a clear quick positive trigger that will support these markets and inject a ton of fresh cash and liquidity, in our opinion.
