On the 11th, local time, the Monetary Policy Committee of the Brazilian central bank announced that it had decided to raise its benchmark interest rate to 12.25%, which is the third time that the Brazilian central bank raised interest rates this year. Brazil's central bank said that the interest rate hike was affected by international uncertainties and Brazil's domestic economic policies, and it is expected that the benchmark interest rate will be raised again in January and March next year. Since August last year, the Brazilian central bank cut interest rates seven times in a row, stopped cutting interest rates in June this year, and then raised the benchmark interest rate three times in a row.

The latest "Focus" bulletin of the Brazilian central bank raised the expected inflation rate to 4.84% in 2024, which is higher than the upper limit of the country's inflation rate management target of 4.5% from 2024 to 2026.Fitch Global Shipping predicts that the performance of each sub-industry will grow steadily, but it will be partially offset by the downward trajectory of container shipping in 2025.On December 12th, local time, the reporter learned that the court documents submitted that day showed that Alexander smirnoff, an FBI informant who had been accused of fabricating US President Barack joseph robinette and his son hunter biden to accept millions of dollars in bribes, had agreed to plead guilty.

It is a "cancer" of the capital market to punish and prevent financial fraud, which destroys the integrity foundation of the capital market and seriously infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of investors. In recent years, the regulatory authorities have further strengthened the punishment of financial fraud and intensified the all-round and three-dimensional accountability. Recently, the relevant person in charge of the Economic Crimes Procuratorate of the Supreme People's Procuratorate said at the "Symposium on Difficult Issues of Legal Identification of Financial Fraud" held by the Law School of Renmin University of China and the Law School of Central University of Finance and Economics that we should adhere to the "zero tolerance" requirement and continue to increase the punishment and prevention of financial fraud. In criminal accountability, we need to grasp three issues. First, under the latest statutory principles, we should strengthen the convergence of execution, and adhere to the principle that "all suspected crimes should be removed, the arrest should be made, and the prosecution should be prosecuted"; Secondly, under the premise of adhering to the strict main tone, the criminal policy of "tempering justice with mercy" should be fully and accurately implemented. Finally, adhere to the whole chain to punish and prevent financial fraud. In the next step, the judicial case-handling organ will further subdivide the situation with relevant departments, improve the lenient and strict standards, and unify the judicial standards for law enforcement. (Securities Daily)Ambassador of China to the United States: "Going to China" is the real risk of global supply chain. Xie Feng, China's ambassador to the United States, said on the 11th that "going to China" is the real risk of global supply chain. Speaking at the annual dinner of u.s.-china business council held in Washington that night, Xie Feng said that in the face of protectionism, China's determination to comprehensively deepen reform and expand high-level opening-up has always been the same, its goal of promoting stable and far-reaching Sino-US relations has always been the same, and its desire to welcome enterprises from all countries, including American enterprises, to share development opportunities has always been the same. Xie Feng said that since the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, a series of heavy reform measures have come into effect, and access to the manufacturing sector has been fully liberalized. For the first time, negative list management has been established for cross-border service trade nationwide, and wholly foreign-owned hospitals have been allowed to be set up in nine places including Beijing. Eleven foreign-controlled or wholly foreign-owned brokers, including JPMorgan Chase, have successively settled in China, and telecommunications, internet, education, culture and medical care have been opened in an orderly manner, releasing huge market dividends. Xie Feng said that the weaponization of tariffs closes the market and loses opportunities. The "small courtyard and high wall" can't stop the spring breeze of innovation, but will draw the land as a prison. "Going to China" under the guise of "removing risks" is the real risk of the global supply chain, and treating "national security" as a "panacea" to discredit and suppress is itself creating insecurity. Only when Sino-US cooperation is done well will the two countries and the world be more prosperous and safer. U.s.-china business council, founded in 1973, is a non-governmental trade organization with China established by the United States before the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States. It has long been committed to promoting the development of Sino-US relations and economic and trade cooperation. At present, the Committee has 270 American member enterprises doing business in China.Gaza Media Office: Thirteen aid workers were killed in the Israeli attack.
