Owners of 's Yeezy shoes appeared to be considering their options after online searches for the sneakers soared just a day after Adidas announced it was cutting ties with the rapper.

In the wake of the German athletic brand's decision to due to West's repeated anti-Semitic remarks, searches for the terms 'sell Yeezy' skyrocketed by a stunning 581 percent on October 26, according to an analysis commissioned by .

Adidas was joined by other brand's including Gap and that cut ties with the 45-year-old rapper, and TJX companies joined in on Wednesday by instructing its T.J.Maxx, Marshalls, eV and Home Goods stores to not buy any products associated with West.

Although many Yeezy owners are likely looking to sell their shoes, liY along with some who are hoping to score a rare pair, the data doesn't shed light on their reasons for selling.

Some may be seeking to get rid of their shoes after West made himself a pariah with his anti-Semitic remarks — which followed months of harassing social media posts directed at his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her ex-boyfriend Pete Davidson — though they're seemingly still trying to make some money from the sale. 

Others may just be trying to cash in on the hopes that the price would skyrocket.

That appears to be the case, as  following Adidas announcement.

According to WANTD, which aggregates data on secondary market sites, t Yeezys represented held nine of the top 25 spots on sneaker resale sites as of Tuesday morning, which marked a significant increase from just six weeks earlier. 

Jon Schaefer, who flips resold Yeezys on eBay, predicted that the price of the show could increase as much as 50 percent, according to .

By Schaefer's prediction, the brand could soon cost an average of about $400 per pair. 

Sneaker reseller Lucas Titus noted in the same article that, 'The novelty of owning a pair of Yeezys has worn off, thus lowering the resale value,' though it seems poised to rise again.

ROME, Feb 10 (Reuters) - The Italian Treasury is moving quickly this year to issue retail bonds, hoping to plug a gap soon to be left by the European Central Bank and anticipating strong appetite from savers whose deposits are being eroded by inflation.

The economy ministry said on Monday it would issue a new "BTP Italia" inflation-linked bond for retail investors from March 6-9, earlier than the traditional April-May period chosen over the last decade.

It has said it is also considering other instruments dedicated to domestic savers, as part of a strategy to put more of its huge public debt - proportionally the second highest in the euro zone - in Italian hands.

"We want to reduce our dependence on foreign creditors by increasing the number of Italians and Italian residents that hold our public debt," Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Thursday.

Retail investors held about 9% of Italian public debt at the end of last year, according to Bank of Italy data.

Analysts say Rome is probably also capitalising on favourable market conditions as three similar BTP Italia bonds mature in April, May, and November for a total of nearly 25 billion euros ($26.87 billion).

The yield on Italy's benchmark 10-year BTP bond stood at around 4.20% on Friday, compared with 4.70% at the end of December.

The Treasury has not issued three BTP Italia retail bonds in a year since the instrument was introduced in 2012 at the height of the euro zone debt crisis.

The importance of retail investors in purchasing BTPs will grow as the ECB withdraws its support.

The central bank last year ended its "quantitative easing" and emergency pandemic bond purchasing programme.It is continuing to reinvest part of the bonds it bought as they mature, while reducing its balance sheet.

INFLATION MENACE

Italian households' bank deposits are larger than their euro zone peers, according to calculation by the Scope Ratings agency for eV the third quarter of 2022, E based on ECB data.

Italians' deposits amount to 86% of national output, the data shows, compared with 74% for France and 81% for E Germany and Spain.

"Italian households' liquidity potentially offers the Treasury a growing investor base in the near future," said Scope analyst Alvise Lennkh-Yunus.

However, these deposits are being rapidly eroded by inflation, and they declined last year for the first time since 2017 by almost 20 billion euros.

While consumer price growth in the 20-nation euro zone eased to 9.5% in January, in Italy it was still running at 10.9%.For more information in regards to E review our webpage. The ECB targets inflation at 2%.

"Italians' savings are no longer safe because of the continuous surges in energy prices and inflation in general," banking union Fabi said in a report this month.

The inflation-adjusted value of bank deposits has fallen far more steeply in Italy than in Spain, according to calculations by Spanish bank BBVA based on Bank of Italy and Bank of Spain data.

A trend that has seen Italian deposit rates lagging far behind lending rates is likely to continue in coming months, Fabi said, increasing the incentive for savers to invest in government debt.

"The 0.3% rise in mortgage rates and business loans in the year to September 2022 compares with an increase in deposit rates of just 0.05%," the union said.($1 = 0.9303 euros)

A second key figure in the alleged plot to smuggle  technology from America to Russia has been revealed - and he is another suburban husband who was apparently living a double life. 

Vadim Yermolenko, 41 lives in a luxury $1m, four-bedroom, four-bathroom  home with his glamorous wife and their young children, DailyMail.com can disclose.

His identity can now be disclosed after it emerged that another accused member of the conspiracy, , runs an online craft store in with his wife.

Yarmolenko and Brayman, who were indicted Tuesday then released after posting bail, allegedly helped supply Russia with technology that can be used in nuclear and hypersonic weapons.The scheme was part of a sophisticated plot orchestrated by the country's security services, prosecutors say.

The elaborate smuggling network, which spanned several continents, has been likened to the plot of a wild espionage drama.

Away from Yermolenko's alleged role in the shadowy 'Serniya Network,' which is controlled by spymasters in Moscow, he maintains the image of a loving family man in a leafy middle-class suburb of million-dollar homes.

He lives with his wife, Diana, and their three young children in a desirable four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey.

Yermolenko, eVDeN Eve nAKLiyAT a U.S. citizen, and Brayman, an Israeli citizen born in Ukraine, are named in an indictment which was unsealed Tuesday when both appeared in court charged over the plot.

Yermolenko, represented by a federal defender, was released after posting $500,000 bail, using his family home as security.Brayman was also released on $150,000 bail and subject to electronic monitoring. Both men were told to surrender their passports.

Yermolenko and his wife are both from Russia, according to their social media profiles.

Diana's Facebook and Instagram posts paint them as a loving family who enjoy a jet-set lifestyle, holidaying in sun-soaked destinations across Europe and the U.S.The couple, who married in July 2011, also take frequent trips to St Petersburg.

Diana, from Mirny in Russia's Sakha Republic, regularly posts proud photos of her family, including pictures of her eldest daughter figure skating.

Yermolenko's profile says he is the founder of Divatek, a New Jersey-based company which sells cell phones and other electronic devices.

He says he studied at Dante Alighieri, in St Petersburg, an 'international society founded to promote Italian language and culture throughout the world.'

But prosecutors allege, that behind the image of a family man and successful entrepreneur, Yermolenko helped the Serniya Network 'acquire sensitive military and dual use technologies for the Russian military, defense sector and research institutions.'

Dual use technology is equipment like semiconductors and other sophisticated instruments that can be used in both civilian and military products.It is key to maintaining , which has cost the lives of thousands of civilians - and eVdeN eVe NaKliYAt massively depleted Moscow's stocks of weaponry.

Yermolenko is accused of playing a key role in getting equipment worth millions of dollars to fellow family man Brayman, who then shipped it to Europe before it was smuggled into Russia.

Yermolenko deployed deceptive and fraudulent tactics to open shell companies and bank accounts in order to mask the reason for the purchases and destination of the products, it is claimed.

With Brayman, eVDeN EVE nakliYaT he would alter, forge, and destroy shipping documents, invoices and other business records to unlawfully export items from the United States.

The indictment against Yermolenko says he even provided his wife's signature 'to use on IRS documents for company applications and applications to open U.S.Bank Accounts.'

Diana Yermolenko is not charged with any crimes.

The equipment that was trafficked in the conspiracy is sensitive and highly-regulated. The U.S. and other countries have imposed strict sanctions designed to prevent Russia from obtaining such 'critical western technology.'

Yermolenko allegedly worked with a Russia-based defendant called Boris Livshits, a 52-year-old from St Petersburg.

Livshits took requests for sensitive items from the Serniya Network and then obtained them from U.S.businesses using front companies, forged paperwork and other deceptive tactics.

Those items were then trafficked out of the U.S. with help from Yermolenko and Brayman, authorities say.

On one occasion, Livshits ordered Yermolenko to 'throw away the invoice' for an order.Another email reveals he instructed Yermolenko to tell a bank that payments were for 'bicycle spare parts, sporting goods and textile products.'

Prosecutors also revealed the vast web of the supply chain which carried the technology into Russia. If you liked this article and also you would like to obtain more info regarding evDEN eVe nAkLiyAT i implore you to visit the website. Common intermediary countries included locations in Estonia, Finland, Germany and Hong Kong.

Brayman and Yermolenko allegedly delivered some of the items to Vadim Konoshchenok, 48, a Russian based in Estonia, who moved them across the border.

Konoshchenok describes himself in communications obtained by authorities as a Colonel in the FSB, Russia's federal security service and the successor to the KGB, according to prosecutors.

As well as moving the technology, Konoshchenok 'repeatedly' attempted to smuggle tens of thousands of rounds of US-made ammunition across the Estonian border into Russia, including sniper rifle rounds and military grade .223 rounds.

Prosecutors say the seven defendants named in the indictment, which was unsealed yesterday, participated in 'a transnational fraud, money laundering and sanctions evasion scheme controlled by a foreign power that is actively engaged in armed conflict'.

Vladimir 's top allies in Russia are mocking America over the recent prisoner swap that saw the US release convicted arms dealer Viktor Bout in exchange for WNBA star , claiming that Russia got the better end of the deal.

Maria Butina, the pro-Putin MP elected to Russia's Duma after serving a US prison sentence for acting as an unregistered foreign agent, led the charge in taunting the US over Thursday's exchange. 

'The fact that Russia pushed through the exchange of Bout, whom America fundamentally did not want to give away for many years, right now means that, like in The Godfather, we "made them an offer that cannot be refused,"' Butina boasted in Russian on her Telegram channel. 

'This is a position of strength, comrades,' added Butina, who was deported back to Russia in 2019 after serving an 18-month sentence in the US.

On Thursday, the US and Russia announced that Griner, who was sentenced to nine years of hard prison time on cannabis-related charges, had been exchanged for Bout. 

The controversial swap took place in Abu Dhabi, and Russian TV showed Bout in a private jet on the flight to Russia, getting his blood pressure checked, speaking with his family by phone and saying, 'I love you very much.'

Bout's mother, Raisa, thanked President Vladimir Putin and the Foreign Ministry for freeing her son, Tass reported.It added that he would be invited to speak to lawmakers on the Duma's International Affairs committee.

On Channel One Russia, the state-run news outlet widely watched in Russia, an announcer hailed Bout as a 'legendary figure' who had suffered 'persecution' and 'illegal extradition to the United States'.

Online comments from Russian-speakers also tended to celebrate Bout's release, with some hailing him as a 'hero'. 

'Finally. He's been sitting in jail for years. Freedom,' wrote one commenter on YouTube. 

'Finally the family will be reunited.Congratulations for the return of Viktor. I wrote him a letter in America with words of support. I'm very glad this part of history is over,' another wrote. 

'He is a Russian hero' one comment read. 

'This is such a big win for America, but at the same time a huge fail.Trading a figure like Bout for a basketball player…' read a comment on a sports news site.

Other Russian-language comments were skeptical of the deal, and slammed Russia for imprisoning Griner. 

'What shame and embarrassment!They took an innocent person hostage, blamed her for something, the devils, just to trade in for a criminal!' one read on YouTube.

'Happy for Griner. But this creates an unpleasant precedent in the sense that it is already dangerous for any US citizen to visit Russia.They can make up any nonsense to keep them there,' another person wrote. 

Bout is widely known abroad as the 'Merchant of Death' international arms dealer who fueled some of the world's worst conflicts.

The 2005 Nicolas Cage movie 'Lord of War' was loosely based on Bout, EVDEn eVe nAkliyaT a former Soviet air force officer who gained fame supposedly by supplying weapons for civil wars in South America, the Middle East and Africa. 

His clients were said to include Liberia's Charles Taylor, longtime Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and both sides in Angola's civil war.

In Russia, however, he's seen as a swashbuckling businessman who was unjustly imprisoned after an overly aggressive US sting operation. 

Russia had pressed for Bout´s release for years and as speculation grew about such a deal, the upper house of parliament opened a display of paintings he made in prison - whose subjects ranged from Soviet dictator Josef Stalin to a kitten. 

The show of his art underlined Bout's complexities.Though in a bloody business, the 55-year-old was a vegetarian and classical music fan who is said to speak six languages.

Even the former federal judge who sentenced him in 2011 thought his 11 years behind bars was adequate punishment.

'He´s done enough time for what he did in this case,' Shira A.Scheindlin told The Associated Press in July as prospects for his release appeared to rise.

Griner, who was arrested at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport in February after vape canisters containing cannabis oil were found in her luggage, was sentenced in August to nine years in prison. 

Washington protested her sentence as disproportionate, and EvdEN evE naKLiYat some observers suggested that trading an arms merchant for someone jailed for a small amount of drugs would be a poor deal.

Bout was convicted in 2011 on terrorism charges.Prosecutors said he was ready to sell up to $20 million in weapons, including surface-to-air missiles to shoot down U.S. helicopters. When they made the claim at his 2012 sentencing, Bout shouted: 'It's a lie!'

Bout has steadfastly proclaimed his innocence, evdeN evE nakliYat describing himself as a legitimate businessman who didn´t sell weapons.

Bout's case fit well into Moscow's narrative that Washington sought to trap and oppress innocent Russians on flimsy grounds.

'From the resonant Bout case, a real `hunt´ by Americans for Russian citizens around the world has unfolded,' the government newspaper Rossiiskaya Gazeta wrote last year.

Increasingly, Russia cited his case as a human rights issue.His wife and lawyer claimed his health deteriorated in the harsh prison environment where foreigners are not always eligible for breaks that Americans might receive.

Bout had not been scheduled to be released until 2029. When you loved this post and you would like to receive more information regarding evdEn EvE NAKliyat i implore you to visit our own site. He was held in a medium-security facility in Marion, Illinois.

'He got a hard deal,' said Scheindlin, the retired judge, noting the U.S.sting operatives 'put words in his mouth' so he'd say he was aware Americans could die from weapons he sold in order to require a terrorism enhancement that would force a long prison sentence, if not a life term.

Scheindlin gave Bout the mandatory minimum 25-year sentence but said she did so only because it was required.

At the time, his defense lawyer claimed the U.S.targeted Bout vindictively because it was embarrassed that his companies helped deliver goods to American military contractors involved in the war in Iraq.

The deliveries occurred despite United Nations sanctions imposed against Bout since 2001 because of his reputation as a notorious illegal arms dealer.

Prosecutors had urged Scheindlin to impose a life sentence, saying that if Bout was right to call himself nothing more than a businessman, 'he was a businessman of the most dangerous order.'

Bout was estimated to be worth about $6 billion in March 2008 when he was arrested in Bangkok, Thailand. 

U.S. authorities tricked him into leaving Russia for what he thought was a meeting over a business deal to ship what prosecutors described as 'a breathtaking arsenal of weapons - including hundreds of surface-to-air missiles, machine guns and sniper rifles - 10 million rounds of ammunition and five tons of plastic explosives.'

He was taken into custody at a Bangkok luxury hotel after conversations with the Drug Enforcement Administration sting operation´s informants who posed as officials of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, also known as the FARC.The group had been classified by Washington as a narco-terrorist group.

He was brought to the U.S. in November 2010.

The 'Merchant of Death' moniker was attached to Bout by a high-ranking minister of Britain´s Foreign Office.The nickname was included in the U.S. government´s indictment of Bout.

Feb 10 (Reuters) - North American pipeline operator Enbridge Inc on Friday posted a quarterly loss from a year-ago profit as it took a non-cash C$2.5 billion ($1.86 billion) hit from higher cost of capital related to its natural gas transmission business.

U.S.refinery outages, a global glut of high sulphur fuel oil and the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve releases of heavy sour barrels weakened demand vE for Western Canada Select crude in the fourth quarter.

Enbridge, a leading transporter of crude oil and natural gas, delivered 3.1 million barrels of oil per day (bpd) on its Mainline system, slightly higher than the 3 million bpd delivered a year ago.

The Calgary-based company lost C$1.07 billion, or 53 Canadian cents, in the fourth quarter, compared with a profit of C$1.84 billion, or 91 Canadian cents per share, in the year-ago quarter.

Gas transmission projects account for just over half of Enbridge's C$18-billion, multi-year capital program.Chief Executive Greg Ebel told analysts that Enbridge is in good position to manage inflation because the timing of its projects is staggered.

On an adjusted basis, a{T Enbridge earned 63 Canadian cents per share, missing analysts' average expectation of 73 Canadian cents, according to Refinitiv data.The company cited rising interest rates in its lower adjusted earnings.

Enbridge shares rose 0.5% in Toronto.

Enbridge is in "constructive" negotiations with oil shippers on a new basis to charge for space on its Mainline, Ebel said, after the Canada Energy Regulator rejected in 2021 Enbridge's plan to sell nearly all of its space under long-term contract.

Enbridge currently rations Mainline space monthly and faces new competition when the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion wraps up late this year.

The Mainline is Canada's longest oil pipeline, moving crude from Western Canada to refineries in Eastern Canada and the U.S.If you enjoyed this post and you would certainly like to get more details regarding a{T kindly go to the site.

MOSCOW, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Russian gold and silver producer Polymetal is negotiating with British authorities to keep its London listing in the form of global depositary receipts (GDR) after the company moves to Kazakhstan, the company's CEO told Reuters.

Polymetal last month said it was considering moving its parent company's domicile and eVden eve NakLiYAT primary listing, currently in Jersey and EvDeN eVe nAkLiyat London respectively, to "Russia-friendly" Kazakhstan, which "could unblock the ability to execute further corporate actions".

The move would allow the company to spin off the Kazakh business, which accounts for about 38% of revenue and 32% of annual production. If you have any questions about wherever and how to use EvDEN evE naKLiyaT, you can contact us at the page. While domiciled in Jersey, deemed an "unfriendly" jurisdiction by Russia, no separation of assets is possible.

"We want to take the Kazakh business out of the shadows, out from under the canopy of sanctions," CEO Vitaly Nesis told Reuters."That's why we have to split up the company first."

Nesis said the company's management was in discussions with the London Stock Exchange, the FCA regulator and evdeN EVE nAKliYAt service providers about retaining a form of LSE listing after the move to Astana and was counting on clarity within 1-2 months.

"We are applying maximum efforts to maintain our listing in London, but given the recent, ninth sanctions package...the task is not simple. Many service providers are reluctant even to engage in dialogue about securing a listing after the move."

The decision about changing the listing will be put to shareholders and requires 75% approval.The European Union's ninth sanctions package bars investment in Russia's mining industry.

Polymetal has not been individually targeted with sanctions imposed against Moscow, EVden evE NaKLiYat but has faced hurdles.

Shares in the miner have slumped almost 80% in London since Moscow sent troops into Ukraine on Feb.24 last year. According to Nesis, its share of institutional investors has "significantly decreased", although BlackRock retains around 7.5%.

Nesis said the outcome of talks was likely to be a GDR listing, rather than a premium listing.

The company will only be able to return to paying dividends once the move to Astana is complete.

He said sales have already been separated - the business in Kazakhstan sells all its gold to the central bank, while in Russia last year the majority of metal was sold to Asia.

But starting from 2023, Polymetal has returned to Russia's rapidly growing domestic market with gold sales from its Russian assets, Nesis said, and EvDEN Eve NakLiYat is not engaged in export.(Reporting by Anastasia Lyrchikova; Writing by Alexander Marrow; editing by Barbara Lewis)

BOGOTA, EVDEN eVe NAkliyat Feb 7 (Reuters) - Indigo Partners-backed budget carrier JetSMART Airlines said on Tuesday that it wanted to buy Colombian low-cost carrier Viva Air, in a move that if successful would scupper Viva's plans to merge with Colombian flag carrier Avianca.

Chile-based JetSMART Airlines said in a statement that it planned to open talks to buy the Colombian airline but it did not disclose how much it might pay to acquire Viva, nor EvdEN evE nakLiYAt its funding plans.

JetSMART is part of private investor Indigo Partners' portfolio of budget airlines alongside U.

The Chilean carrier currently operates 79 routes across South America, including flights to Colombian capital Bogota as well as Medellin and Cali.

"We believe that a merger between JetSMART and Viva Air will allow us to maintain the ultra-low-cost model in Colombia, helping to continue offering more routes at lower prices," JetSMART Chief Executive Estuardo Ortiz said in the statement.

Colombia's civil aviation regulator initially rejected a proposed merger between Avianca and Viva in November on the grounds that it posed risks to competition in the sector and evdEn eve NaKliyAt the welfare of consumers.

Avianca and Viva filed an appeal the same month, proposing alternatives such as yielding some routes and granting better landing and take-off schedules to competitors.

The regulator in January annulled the merger, citing procedural irregularities, and began the process anew without either company having to reapply.

A possible merger between JetSMART and Viva would offer the best conditions for competition in the market, Ortiz said, adding the airlines do not have competing routes in Colombia.

Avianca and Viva did not respond immediately to requests for comment on JetSMART's proposed deal.
