Ukrainian Air Force: Russian aircraft launched guided bombs into southern Ukraine.Scotiabank said that given that the Bank of Englands chief economist, Peel, was one of the two members who supported keeping interest rates unchanged, and the Bank of Englands statement kept its policy guidance unchanged, that is, to maintain a "gradual and cautious" pace of policy easing, the threshold for the Bank of England to cut interest rates again in June has been greatly raised. We still expect the Bank of England to maintain the rhythm of once a quarterly rate cut for the time being, and choose to pause rate cuts in June and resume rate cuts in August. CPI, employment and GDP data released in the next two weeks may inject some vitality into the expectation of a rate cut in June. The markets pricing of a rate cut for this meeting has been significantly reduced from about 15 basis points (60% probability) yesterday to only 5 basis points (20% probability).On May 9th, the Transport Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region announced that it has updated the trial license for autonomous vehicles in accordance with the Road Traffic (Autonomous Driving Vehicles) Regulations and expanded the testing area of Robot Run autonomous driving vehicles in Hong Kong.The governor of Russias Belgorod Oblast said that a Ukrainian drone attacked a local government building, but there were no casualties so far.May 9, Capital Economics economist Paul Dales said that the trade agreement with the United States will not greatly stimulate British economic growth.

Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


Voyager Digital Holdings Inc., a cryptocurrency company, has been granted permission by the US Bankruptcy Court in New York to restore $270 million in client funds, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.


According to the Journal, Judge Michael Wiles, who is in charge of Voyager's bankruptcy, said the firm had "sufficient grounds" to back up its claim that clients should be given access to the custodial account kept at Metropolitan Commercial Bank.


The business did not immediately respond to requests for comment.


Voyager, one of several businesses that struggled after the widespread turbulence on the cryptocurrency market, filed for Chapter 11 last month.


Voyager reported that it had between $1 billion and $10 billion in assets and liabilities, as well as over 100,000 creditors, in its bankruptcy case.


The Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp (FDIC) issued an injunction to the firm last week directing it to stop making "false and misleading" promises about the government's protection of its clients' cash.


The firm only had a bank account at Metropolitan Commercial Bank, according to the authorities, and none of the investors using its platform were covered by the FDIC.


During the COVID-19 epidemic, cryptocurrency lenders like Voyager saw a surge in business, luring depositors with high interest rates and convenient access to loans that conventional banks seldom ever gave. Lenders have suffered from the recent decline in cryptocurrency markets, which was brought on by the failure of two significant tokens in May.
