Global Finance Report Weekly Market CommentaryThe Dow resumed the bull run with the prospect of tax reform looming. The Senate passed the budget which now allows the tax reform legislation to pass under reconciliation. This is a 'must' for markets. Europe is being underwhelmed by the latest EU summit, which throws spanners in the form of Brexit and the Catalan Independence question. The EUR held below 1.1800, while the GBP inched back towards 1.3200, shrugging off the negatives. The coming week holds prospects of Central Bank activity and speculation with both the ECB and the Bank of Canada deciding rates. There is little chance of action but the language is likely to be bullish. Australian CPI is released and will probably be fairly static, while the AUD will kick off the week trading lower around 0.7800, while the wounded KIWI looks vulnerable. The new NZ Labour Government led 'Grand Rainbow Coalition' should encourage few and drive the NZD lower. The KIWI has fallen below the bog figure of 0.7000 and the only positive is that it may get oversold?! ... read more |  |

Case update – issuing a misleading bill of lading |
|
FOLLOWING the commentary published by Freight & Trade Alliance (FTA) and Daily Cargo News (DCN) on 20 October 2017 "Damages of almost $1 million awarded against forwarder", Hunt & Hunt Lawyers have spoken to Jeffrey Lennon, the sole director of Freight Solutions and provide further considerations in terms of freight forwarder liability for misleading bills of lading.
The conversation with Mr Lennon makes this case and the upcoming webinar to be hosted by FTA even more important. More so than the Court Judgment, Mr Lennon was able to convey a sense that the circumstances in which Freight Solutions was found liable were similar to the position many freight forwarders find themselves in ... read more |
