TOKYO, Jul 29, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally Team will compete on home soil at Rally Finland on August 4-7 and target another victory on the fastest round of the season with its driver line-up of championship leader and hometown hero Kalle Rovanpera, his fellow Flying Finn Esapekka Lappi and defending event king Elfyn Evans.The GR YARIS Rally1 HYBRID takes to its home roads around Jyvaskyla having performed strongly so far in its debut season with victories in five of the last six events. It has a tough act to follow though at Rally Finland, where its predecessor the Yaris WRC won all four editions held between 2017 and 2021. A dominant display on the most recent round in Estonia on similarly fast roads provides the team with confidence, but a single pre-event test over the coming days will be crucial for tailoring the car setup to the specific characteristics of Finnish gravel stages.The rally-mad Finnish public is expected to turn out in their numbers to cheer for Jyvaskyla-born Rovanpera in particular following his outstanding form in 2022. He increased his championship lead to 83 points with his fifth win in Estonia, but is taking...

NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The S&P and Nasdaq closed higher on Monday (Oct 18) with the biggest boosts from the highest-profile technology and communications companies, while investors eyed product news from Apple and appeared optimistic about the third-quarter earnings season. After a weak start following disappointing economic data from China, the S&P and Nasdaq gathered steam in late morning with gains in "Faang" stocks - Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google - as well as Microsoft. Apple shares closed 1 per cent higher after the company made a splash by unveiling new Mac laptop computers with more powerful processor chips. Facebook shares, under pressure recently, closed up more than three per cent with some positive reports out, including its plans to create 10,000 jobs in Europe to help build the so-called metaverse - an online world. With just a small minority of companies having reported quarterly results so far, investors were hopeful for some good news in the days and weeks ahead. "You're going to get a heavier slate of earnings reports this week from a diverse set of industries," said Mr Michael James, managing director of equity trading at Wedbush Securities in Los Ange...

NEW YORK (REUTERS) - The S&P 500 and Dow Jones industrial average ended lower on Monday (April 12), with investors waiting for cues from the upcoming corporate earnings season and a key inflation report later this week. The indexes had closed at record highs on Friday, after rallying for days on a pullback in the benchmark 10-year bond yield from 14-month highs. With US consumer price data for March due to be published Tuesday (April 13), this could drive Treasury yields higher. Big Wall Street names are due to kick off earnings season on Wednesday, giving new catalysts to buy or sell stocks in a record-high market. "Investors are now going to pay close attention to earnings season, because this is the time where they are expecting guidance from companies, where valuations start to matter again," said Ed Moya, senior market analyst at OANDA. "There's this nervousness that we're going to see that we can't just buy everything, as that was the trade for the last few months." Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said on Sunday the US economy was at an "inflection point" with expectations for faster growth in the months ahead, but he warned that a hasty reopening could lead to a continue...
