Copper pulled back from a three-week high on Wednesday after US inflation data put a Federal Reserve rate hike this month back on the table, and word of a preliminary deal to avert a strike at BHP’s Escondida, the world’s largest copper mine, took some of the supply premium out of the price. Comex copper for December delivery traded at $6.6695 a pound (about $14,704 a tonne) late morning in New York, down 0.8%, after touching $6.7890 earlier in the session. The most-active contract’s record settlement of $6.89 was set on September 9, the day before a report that the White House tariff plan had stalled knocked more than 5% off the price.

York Regional Police (YRP) are asking for the public’s help identifying a suspect believed to be responsible for both an attempted arson and a shooting that targeted the same Vaughan business within days of each other. Investigators say the incidents occurred at a commercial property in the area of Islington Avenue and Kellam Street in April.

Andrea Moss Local Journalism Initiative Reporter SaskToday.ca Two major Yorkton agri-food processors say tariffs have not yet directly disrupted their core businesses, but ongoing trade tensions are increasing costs, complicating planning and creating concerns about future growth. Both Grain Millers Canada and TA Foods rely heavily on export markets, particularly the United States, where much of their production is sold. “Our raw ag commodities and our finished food products, so far, knock on wood, are not impacted by the tariffs in either direction,” said Grain Millers Canada president Terry Tyson. The Yorkton oat processor ships about 85 per cent of its finished products into the U. S. market, making the prospect of expanded tariffs a significant concern. “What keeps us up at night is the possibility of escalation,” Tyson said. TA Foods owner Mike Popowich said his company, which processes flax seed grown across the Prairies, has also largely avoided direct tariff impacts because, he said, Canadian flax remains covered under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement.

Bank of America (BAC. N), has been fined $1.21bn by US regulators for widespread failures to detect ‌potential money laundering and other illicit activity, a penalty the bank said will hurt third-quarter earnings. The US treasury department said the fine, the third-largest in department history, is due to the bank’s failure to report more than $5bn in suspicious activity to the government, including $1bn that posed national security-related and other priority illicit finance risks. “Financial institutions are on the ​front lines of protecting our economic and national security,” the treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, said in a statement. “When a bank of this size ​fails to meet its anti-money laundering and sanctions obligations, the consequences extend far beyond its own walls, exposing the ⁠entire US financial system to significant illicit finance risks.”The treasury said the bank “prioritized its revenues” in building compliance programs, and overly relied on inquiries ​from outside parties such as law enforcement and other financial institutions instead of its own internal controls.

HONG KONG — China’s exports surged 36.3 per cent in September from a year earlier, its customs agency said Wednesday, putting the country on track to surpass last year’s record trade surplus even as pressure mounts from trading partners, including the European Union, to rebalance trade. The increase beat economists’ expectations and was stronger than the 25 per cent year-on-year growth in August. High-tech goods including semiconductors and automobiles helped fuel its rising shipments overseas. September’s export growth pace was the fastest since February, according to a compilation of official data by FactSet. Imports climbed 31 per cent in September year-on-year, also accelerating from August’s 28.2 per cent rise. Still, China recorded a US$133.5 billion trade surplus last month, widening from US$119.1 billion in August.
