Vitória-Trindade Ridge (VTR) aboard the vessel NHo Cruzeiro do Sul (October 18th to November 6th The main objectives of the VTRCC Cruise were (1) to assess the role of the VTR as an oceanographic barrier for bottom currents along the Brazilian margin; and (2) to characterize the morphology of the volcanic seamounts and its relationships with the carbonate sediments that cover it high-resolution multichannel seismic survey and seafloor sampling along the VTR and along the Columbia Deepwater Channel The raw dataset was processed for quality control and organized for public access additional geophysical processing occurred to improve data quality Seafloor samples are characterized based on the concentration of its biofacies the sediment grain-sizes and the morphology of rhodoliths sampled The dataset reveals comprehensively the geological and oceanographic heterogeneity of the region around the VTR Data acquired during the CORE-VTRCC Cruise (a) Multibeam bathymetry survey occurred throughout the vessel track with the exception of shallow depths (<100 m) Seafloor samples were acquired atop the Columbia Seamount (V01 and V02) atop the Davis Bank (V05 and V06) and atop the Jaseur Seamount (b) Sub-bottom and sound velocity profiles were also acquired throughout the cruise track but not at <100 m depths (c) Multichannel Sparker Seismic data was acquired along the Columbia Channel (L01-L03) along the VTR (L07-L15) and at the Rio de Janeiro continental slope (L17) (d) Marine magnetometry was acquired throughout the survey track when sea conditions were safe High resolution sub-bottom profiler data were acquired employing an SBP-120 from Kongsberg installed in the hull of the ship Survey geometry came from a SeaPath 330 positioning system with two GNSS antennas without differential positioning Acquisition occurred in the Kongsberg SIS software with the ellipsoid WGS-84 and a UTM projection with zone 25S The equipment was operated with one main channel which results in a maximum vertical resolution ~0.3 ms The data was logged in Topas raw format and converted to SEG-Y format The power of the SBP pulse and trigger interval varied along the survey depending on ocean conditions and seafloor depth Survey velocities ranged between 4–7 knots Sound velocities were then incorporated during the multibeam bathymetry acquisition directly into the SIS software Multibeam bathymetry preprocessing was performed on the software CARIS HIPS from Teledyne during the expedition A Patch Test calibration of the echosounder was done atop the Columbia Seamount on October 26th heading and the time delay were calibrated The corrected values from the Patch Test were then inserted into the processing procedure spike removal and surface equalization processing were performed with the software EIVA NaviModel Producer after the expedition The SeaSPY magnetometer from Marine Magnetics was used to acquire the magnetic field data The sensor (torpedo) was towed 250 m behind the vessel and 300 m from the vessel’s GPS The SeaSPY magnetometer is a Proton Precession (Overhauser) sensor of absolute accuracy and the resolution of the system is 0.1 nT and 0.001 nT The data was acquired in a 10 Hz frequency from the continental slope to the furthest point from the continent The frequency resulted in measurements for every meter traveled with the sensor about 30 to 35 m below the sea level The survey also occurred in parallel to the seismic survey the data had low-quality/high-noise measurements removed and was filtered using a non-linear filter of 10 fiducials to eliminate spikes from the data The quality approved field was reduced using the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) to correct long-wavelength effects non-related to crustal features The resulting Total Magnetic Field was finally filtered using a first-order polynomial filter to highlight medium- to short-wavelength anomalies related to the VTR producing the Residual Magnetic Field surveyed by the cruise Microscopic photographs were taken with a Zeiss Stemi DV4 stereomicroscope at zoom scale of 8x and a total diameter of 26 mm Grains were then classified in carbonate debris and its abundance was quantified based on 300 random point counts per sample method (Subbottom Profiler – SBP) and line number Bin sizes were then determined to optimize the fold number in the stacked section noise modeling) may be performed to further improve data results technical limitations of using a short streamer result in a difficulty of properly imaging surfaces/areas with a high gradient particularly along the continental slope and seamounts where the seismic traces are often distorted and do not represent the regional stratigraphy The initial and final masses

It’s a yellow land crab This is my first encounter with this species yet it feels like I’m greeting an old friend Ever since I first clapped eyes on an image of a yellow land crab I’ve been eager to find it and tell its story Seeing it in the flesh is a dream come true It’s March 2024 and I have just arrived on the remote island of Trindade a doctoral student from São Paulo State University We are lucky to even be here: Trindade is off-limits to the general public and the only way we could get to the island was by hitching a lift with the Brazilian Navy which supports research through the ProTrindade project Our ocean odyssey from Rio de Janeiro had been marked with endless views of blue engaging conversations and games of dominoes The yellow land crab Johngarthia lagostoma is named after John Garth It’s a relatively hefty species – on Trindade and the powerful claws can grow as large as 10.5cm While the species occurs on three other islands – Fernando de Noronha and Rocas Atoll, both part of Brazil, and Ascension Island – Trindade is its last stronghold. It is not listed as Endangered on the IUCN’s Red List yet is considered so by Brazilian researchers who are currently trying to determine the exact size of the population On Fernando de Noronha and Ascension Island the Johns have faced significant threats from humans there is still lots to learn about the life of the Johns: the first research expedition to Trindade only took place in spring 2019 the study team has undertaken five more expeditions The Johns are terrestrial creatures and live scattered across the island They are largely nocturnal and solitary by nature coming together only in the mating season and going their separate ways immediately after copulation Yet they undertake a migration en-masse during the breeding season a spectacle Márcio and I had timed our visit to witness but migrate down to the beaches for reproduction The mating season and all associated reproductive processes occur from November to May across all four of the species’ oceanic island homes female crabs store the sperm in a seminal receptacle and retreat to their burrows where they wait for their eggs to mature The eggs are then fertilised internally and transferred to the abdomen the females emerge and make their way to the sea each releasing about 80,000 eggs during full-moon tides developing into larvae known as zoeas that resemble tiny shrimps they move into the next stage of development at which point they resemble tiny adult crabs coming ashore during the next full-moon high tide they must now navigate rocks and sand to seek shelter from predators sometimes travelling almost a kilometre inland They typically hide away under rocks until they’ve completed their final moult to become fully fledged juvenile crabs Once their shells reach about 1cm in width they emerge from their hideouts and begin their journey into the mountains I need to get to my accommodation in the research station and unpack yet I am transfixed by the John in front of me Their large eyes seem to be studying me intently and their huge claws lend them an almost robotic appearance gently moving above their heads as if giving me a welcoming wave It is with great reluctance that I eventually drag myself off to my digs then join Márcio and Master’s student Esli Mosna for an evening of survey work on Andradas Beach and the large swathes of vegetation near the beach are rapidly transforming into crab gardens Hundreds of Johns are beginning to emerge from their burrows higher up the slope spreading out and gathering around my feet with a noisy clacking of claws yet there are so many of them that the ground is swirling I am more preoccupied with not treading on the crabs than I am about taking good photos of them I now understood what Márcio meant when he said that these animals truly dominate Trindade I capture some images of the Johns and of the researchers setting up transects so we can observe the crabs’ night-time activity One aim of the research is to understand the genetic connectivity among the individuals distributed across the four islands coordinator of the Research Group in Crustacean Biology at São Paulo State University explains that what first struck him about the Johns was their curiosity something that only a preserved environment like Trindade can offer,” he recalls these crabs have been sharing their life story with us trusting us as guardians of their future.” Trindade is not only a stronghold for the Johns, but is also the largest nesting ground in Brazil for green turtles. Mouth agape, I watch as, among dozens of crabs, a huge green turtle lumbers across the sand and digs a hole in which to lay its eggs While the two species tend to keep themselves to themselves for most of the year Yellow land crabs are predominantly herbivores Many Johns are still loitering among the turtle burrows the detritus from the previous night’s feast scattered across the beach Most predation on hatchlings occurs at night when the youngsters are making their way towards the sea I didn’t really like the Johns because they ate turtle hatchlings,” admits biologist Joice Soares from the Marine Turtle Project “But everything is in balance here; now they are our fieldwork friends.” my final task is to photograph the crabs at altitude but Johns only come down to the shore to mate and spawn our planned overnight campout on the mountain is cancelled for logistical and safety reasons so we plan instead to head for Prince Hill whose 150m plateau hosts the largest concentration of juveniles Permission to hike to Prince Hill is granted by the Brazilian Navy at 6am Since the crabs are usually back in their burrows by sunrise I know good photos will be almost impossible but the sun is soon high in the sky and scorching hot a famous rainstorm that refreshes Trindade in a hard-and-fast downpour Rain is usually a challenge for photographers Terrestrial crabs can use ambient humidity for this process or when they locate sources of fresh water they will take advantage of the increased water availability to refresh their gills As the pirajá approaches and lashes the island the Johns begin to appear across the landscape allowing me to capture the photographs I had hoped for the crabs disappear back into their burrows The team from São Paulo State University will continue their research in the coming years uncovering new aspects of the Johns’ biology and devising conservation plans “Protecting the John crabs on Trindade is not just about saving a species,” says Marcelo “It’s about learning how to restore and sustain the delicate balance of nature in a rapidly changing world.” More wildlife stories from around the world You’ve heard the phrase “trust your gut” when it comes to making decisions. But your gut doesn’t just give you intuition for reaching conclusions. It also physically interacts and communicates with the rest of your body in ways that affect your overall well-being. Arvind Trindade, MD“The gut microbiome is tremendously important for both immunity and metabolism,” says Arvind Trindade, MD, a gastroenterologist with Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital (RWJUH) and a member of RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group “A diversified and well structured gut microbiome can help you stay healthy while any disruption can lead to disease.” Dr. Trindade and his colleague Petros Benias, MD also a gastroenterologist with RWJUH and a member of RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group explain why the gut is so critical—and how you can help it thrive Think of it as a tiny universe of microorganisms living inside your body “There are more microbial species in the gut than human cells,” Dr Petros Benias, MDHow Does the Microbiome Affect Digestive Health?The microbiome breaks down foods that we eat but its organisms can act differently based on the foods they encounter processed foods such as deli meats and bacon are linked to increased numbers of cancer cells in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract “Processed meats are designated Group 1 [highest-level] carcinogens by the World Health Organization,” Dr Eating a high-fiber diet that includes foods such as berries whole grains and vegetables like broccoli can promote a range of positive effects “Fiber acts like a prebiotic in the gut, which brings two benefits,” Dr. Trindade says. “It stimulates the natural hormone GLP-1, which is essential for weight loss—and obesity is a risk factor in many GI-related cancerous and precancerous conditions, such as Barrett’s esophagus A high-fiber diet also helps build a strong which prevents pathogens from damaging healthy cells.” Regular exercise further benefits gut health and reduces the risk of chronic disease “Exercise stimulates weight loss,” Dr Family health history can play a role in nearly all digestive health disorders, from irritable bowel syndrome and gastrointestinal esophageal reflux disease (GERD, or heartburn) to conditions such as ulcerative colitis Crohn’s disease and many GI-related cancers Ethnicity may also be a factor: People of Asian descent have a higher risk for gastric or esophageal cancers “Have open conversations with your family members about their health history,” Dr “Ask if they’ve experienced any kinds of GI cancers or noncancerous polyps.” bloating or flatulence may be signs of various illnesses get a thorough exam from your primary care physician,” Dr Red flags to watch for include bloody stools early satiety (feeling full very soon after starting to eat) and persistent vomiting “ Take these symptoms seriously,” Dr “Ask your doctor for a referral to a gastroenterologist immediately.” “Cancer data show a 1 to 2 percent increase in colorectal cancer every year over the last 20 years in people younger than 55,” Dr “That’s a concerning number.” studies show that GI-related cancers (of the colon appendix and bile duct) are growing fastest among adults 30 to 39 Another analysis has shown that adults 45 to 64 experienced nearly twice the rate of esophageal cancer and a 50 per cent increase in Barrett’s esophagus between 2012 and 2019 Colonoscopy remains the gold standard for identifying colon cancer The American Cancer Society now recommends that adults start screening for colon cancer at age 45 Trindade recommends screenings for Barrett’s esophagus for people who have GERD or those with a family history “Patients can schedule a separate screening for Barrett’s esophagus or they can have it done at the same time they have their colonoscopy,” he says RWJBarnabas Health is building a comprehensive digestive disorders program “We want to create an environment where anyone who needs help with their gastrointestinal system can get the highest standard of care locally,” says Dr The program includes specialists with expertise in rare and emerging GI disorders. For example, Dr. Trindade specializes in Barrett’s esophagus, and Dr. Benias has clinical expertise in achalasia (a rare swallowing disorder) and complex digestive tract tumors Patients will also benefit from the latest research and a team of surgeons and interventional endoscopists—experts in minimally invasive GI treatments we can treat early cancers in the GI tract endoscopically with same-day procedures that deliver excellent results,” Dr “We aim to achieve curative resection [removal of an organ a structure or tissue] in more than 90 percent of patients we treat removing their cancer without invasive surgery.” Learn more about digestive health care at RWJBarnabas Health View full issues of Healthy Together magazine by New Jersey region:Central, serving the communities of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in Hamilton, New Brunswick and SomersetSouth serving the communities of Community Medical Center in Toms River and Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus in Lakewood VINCI’s Shareholders’ General Meeting and Board of Directors’ meeting of 17 April 2025 VINCI’s Combined Shareholders’ General Meeting was held today at Salle Pleyel in Paris and was chaired by Xavier Huillard the Group’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer With shareholders owning 69.4% of the Company’s shares present or represented all resolutions put to the meeting were passed The Shareholders’ General Meeting also provided the opportunity to present an update on the Group’s environmental transition plan which is detailed in the sustainability report included in its 2024 Universal Registration Document At its meeting held after the Shareholders’ General Meeting the Board of Directors decided to separate the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer with effect from 1 May 2025 It proceeded to appoint Xavier Huillard as Chairman of the Board and Pierre Anjolras as Chief Executive Officer with effect from this same date the Board of Directors paid special tribute to: the Board of Directors decided to appoint Annette Messemer who meets all the criteria to qualify as independent The voting results for the Shareholders’ General Meeting as well as the video of the meeting will be available soon on the Group’s website (www.vinci.com) This press release is an official information document of the VINCI Group PRESS CONTACTVINCI Press DepartmentTel: +33 (0)1 57 98 62 88media.relations@vinci.com Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (Workers Party - PT) fired Health Minister Nísia Trindade on February 25. In the two years that she led the ministry, her tenure was marked by the largest dengue outbreak in the country’s history and the deepening of the “herd immunity” policy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic She will be replaced by the former Minister of Institutional Relations who previously headed the Ministry of Health between 2011 and 2014 in the government of Dilma Rousseff (PT) Former president of Brazil’s largest epidemiological institute ex-minister Trindade was considered a “technical cadre” who had been chosen by Lula for his supposed “reconstruction of Brazil” after four years of destruction by the government of fascist ex-president Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022) Lula hopes that the health ministry under Padilha will help him increase his government’s increasingly low approval rating and put him in a better position in the 2026 presidential election Absent from the bourgeois media has been an objective assessment of Trindade’s tenure at the head of the health ministry first and foremost in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic The many allegations in the media that her resignation represented an act of “misogyny” by the Lula government have been amplified by the pseudo-left which throughout the pandemic has functioned as a left-wing cover for the “COVID forever” policy of the world’s ruling elite Any serious assessment of Lula’s health ministry has to take stock of the COVID-19 pandemic in just over two years of his government Brazil marked five years since the first case of COVID-19 in the country a subject little reported in the Brazilian media In mid-February 2023, shortly after Lula’s inauguration, his government’s health ministry decided to end the release of daily COVID-19 data in Brazil without any scientific basis Trindade made her first nationwide pronouncement the time has come to celebrate our country's biggest popular festival [Carnival].” when the service and tourism sectors in Brazil make billions in profits also expressed the Lula government’s intention not to place any restrictions on the economy even as the pandemic worsens.” this situation has only worsened in Brazil which saw an increase in the number of cases and deaths at the beginning of the year after the Christmas and end-of-year celebrations an event that brings together millions of people across Brazil has served as a super-spreader event for the novel coronavirus in the country the Lula government has preferred to ignore science in favor of private profits The country is going through a new wave of the COVID-19 pandemic which will certainly worsen in the coming days and weeks due to Carnival Data released on February 25 by the “Todos pela Saúde Institute” showed that the positivity rate for SARS-CoV-2 the increase in the positivity rate has coincided with the reopening of schools across Brazil for the start of the school year These figures are supported by the National Council of Health Secretaries (CONASS) between the second (9-16) and third (16-22) weeks of February the number of cases rose from 13,709 to 22,097 Brazil has a total of 39 million cases and 715,000 deaths from COVID-19 COVID-19 data in Brazil, however, hugely underestimates the real rate of infections and deaths. A study entitled “Epicovid 2.0” published in December showed that 28.4 percent of the Brazilian population (around 60 million people) have already had at least one COVID-19 infection a figure 1.5 times higher than the official count When Trindade gave her speech at the end of February 2023 it was clear that the Lula government intended to ignore the need for nationally coordinated monitoring of the pandemic— exactly what had marked the open policy of “herd immunity” adopted by the Bolsonaro government the speech made two years ago by former minister Trindade becomes even more repulsive in the face of what was promised Repeating the claim of the world’s ruling elite that “our great ally is vaccination,” she continued: “The more people with a complete vaccination schedule the more we will be protected from the severe forms of the disease.” This was an explicit acknowledgement that the novel coronavirus would be free to spread in Brazil ignoring the fact that even mild infections can cause numerous effects associated with Long COVID that can also be minimized with the vaccine she welcomed the World Health Organization’s (WHO) unscientific decision to end the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency of International Concern “We’re still going to live with COVID-19.” At the end of 2023, the Lula government abandoned universal vaccination against COVID-19 and limited it to a few specific groups, deepening the “herd immunity” policy initiated by Bolsonaro. Throughout 2024, the lack of vaccines for COVID-19 and countless other diseases was widely reported in the Brazilian media Brazil is applying the COVID-19 vaccine against variants of Omicron XBB the variants that have been dominant in Brazil since the middle of last year are descended from JN.1 which is why the WHO has been recommending the use of updated vaccines for this variant since last April According to an early February report in O Globo the health ministry “could have asked [health agency] Anvisa for exceptional authorization to import .. or made an exceptional purchase of doses .. Without any warning to the population about COVID-19 and the effects associated with Long COVID the vaccination campaign has been a failure Only 21.6 percent of the population eligible to be immunized has taken the booster dose recommended by the Ministry of Health Among most of the Brazilian population who have not updated their doses is former minister Trindade who was recently exposed by the Brazilian media for not having taken the booster dose last year The Lula government’s negligence in response to the pandemic is also expressed in relation to Long COVID 65.2 percent of people infected with the new coronavirus have or have had Long COVID which corresponds to around 40 million people (18.9 percent of the Brazilian population) A report by Agência Brasil in early February about a Fiocruz study showed that Long COVID “remains unnoticed in health services indicating that patients are unable to obtain the necessary care and health services are not prepared to care for them.” According to the report despite the high cost of Long COVID to individuals awareness and understanding of this condition are very low.” This widespread neglect of public health in Brazil by the Lula government has not gone unnoticed even among the unions that supported his election Welfare and Social Assistance in the State of Rio de Janeiro (SINSPREV/RJ)—affiliated to the CTB union center controlled by the Maoist Communist Party of Brazil (PCdoB) which is part of the PT party federation—wrote after Trindade’s dismissal that her tenure was marked “by authoritarianism the instances of social control in the SUS .. [and] the problems in vaccine management.” It denounced the “slicing up of the federal network [of hospitals] handing over hospitals to the municipality of Rio [de Janeiro] and to social organizations which in practice are disguised forms of privatization.” SINSPREV/RJ also wrote that this is a policy that “not even the extreme right has dared to practice in Brazil.” For this reason workers at Rio de Janeiro’s federal hospitals have been on strike since May 2024 SINSPREV/RJ also criticized the “narrative of misogyny about Nísia Trindade’s dismissal,” the “end of public tenders” in federal public health and the fact that “Nísia Trindade’s management has never [complied] with the provisions of the 2023 strike agreement in federal health” This is just one example of the countless sectors of the federal workforce that have gone on strike for months against the Lula government over the past year such as teachers and federal education workers and environmental workers Paulo reported at the end of January that “Lula’s base sees lack of social mobilization as a risk for the government and the election in 2026.” It mentioned the criticism from social movements and trade unions that Lula’s government has lost “connection with the popular layers,” which was expressed particularly in the fiasco of last year’s May Day rally organized by the PT-controlled trade union federations and their satellites Lula has shown himself to be incapable of seeing the widespread social misery in Brazil that has undoubtedly been driven in part by the COVID-19 crisis According to a report in Folha on February 27 based upon comments by Lula’s allies the current president has an “excess of optimism that The report also wrote that “Lula still hasn’t realized the true dimension of the problems his government is facing,” particularly “the sharp drop in his approval rating which is even occurring in states in the Northeast where the PT has always reaped an avalanche of votes” in the 2022 election Lula’s alleged “alienation” has objective class roots This is a government that was elected to satisfy a section of the Brazilian ruling class that was unhappy with Bolsonaro and received the support of Joe Biden’s government in the US and the European imperialist powers this process is accelerating the defection of workers from the PT and the unions it controls The fundamental task for Brazilian workers is to break with the illusions promoted by the pseudo-left and the unions that the Lula government can be pushed to the left At a time when workers in the US and around the world are fighting back against attacks on their fundamental social and democratic rights a process that will accelerate as the impact of Trump’s trade war intensifies Brazilian workers must see their struggle in defense of social rights in Brazil as part of an international struggle against the source of these attacks Francisco Trindade is an engineering leader who has been around the block He has worked as a

the title for years across both RISE and GLORY the Thai-born fighter had cleared out the division and was making the list as an all-time great he suddenly loses to Australia’s Chadd Collins ‘The Shark’ Chadd Collins was a world champion in Muay Thai but largely untested in Kickboxing He challenged the RISE and GLORY world champion Petch and defeated him over five rounds It looked like a passing of the torch moment Miguel Trindade was a decent fighter who had some wins and losses in GLORY and ONE Championship Trindade next faced the number-one-ranked Collins It looked like an easy title defense for ‘The Shark.’ But in just 95 seconds The number one ranked fighter just lost to an unranked athlete and in a very dominant way The Portuguese striker dropped Collins three times throughout their short fight thus ending the clear and easy division rankings and Trindade all had wins and losses against one another and a clear top-ranked fighter could not be picked RISE and GLORY got together to create a one-night Grand Prix for this weight class featuring the very best of the stacked division But Trindade earned another KO win against Chadd Collins The powerful striker Miguel Trindade created a massive upset this year that set the stage for one of the best tournaments in kickboxing history This is why Miguel Trindade’s knockout at RISE ELDORADO 2024 against Chadd Collins was the Combat Press Kickboxing Knockout of the Year ‘It’s going to be a very interesting second half of this year the market had it easy over the first half’ Despite markets pricing in interest rate cuts in the US in September following on from similar decisions in the UK and Europe AXA IM fixed income portfolio manager Nicolas Trindade argues that short duration is still the place to be He manages a number of AXA IM’s fixed income offerings, including its Global Short Duration Bond fund, which was recently upgraded to an ‘AA’ rating by Square Mile “It’s going to be a very interesting second half of this year I think the market had it easy over the first half,” Trindade says “It’s been pretty smooth sailing so far Credit spreads have been tightening quite nicely since the beginning of the year when we had that little wobble because of the French elections and in early August due to a growth scare in the US following a weak payroll print but I’m worried that the second half of this year is going to be a lot more challenging for investors We are positioned for a difficult second half running more duration on the front end and less credit risk than we have had historically.” See also: Pridham report: Over half of UK fund groups grow net sales for third straight quarter While investors may be tempted to lock in higher interest rates by going long duration while central banks are still in the first phases of initiating a rate-cutting cycle Trindade presents the case for short-dated strategies He says the front end of the market is attractive because of the inverted shape of the yield curve the incentive to lengthen duration is not really there you take more duration risk for either less or a similar level of yield so you’re still better off being at the front end.” Trindade points out that normally longer duration may perform better than short-dated bonds in a rate cutting cycle “That is only true as long as the yield curve shifts in a parallel fashion,” he says “If the yield curve shifts in a parallel fashion you will be making more money by being longer duration what we expect in this cycle is a strong bull steepening of the yield curve where front end yields will fall by more than being at the long end of the curve That is because we expect an ageing population increased defence spending and the transition to a net zero economy to lead to more government borrowing mostly focused on the belly and long-end of the curve “If you have a very strong bull steepening of the yield curve then even on a total return basis you may still be better off being in front of the market rather than the long end.” Short duration can also better protect investors against further inflationary shocks and interest rates diverging from expectations Trindade says that in the event of a Trump presidency in November the potential increase of tariffs on foreign goods in the US along with tax cuts could cause an inflationary shock which could cause central banks to stop cutting rates you definitely don’t want to be long duration you can have your cake and eat it when you’re in the short-dated market Not only do you benefit from very attractive yields and therefore you benefit from central banks cutting rates but you also benefit from better protections in case central banks don’t cut rates It’s a very good place to be in right now.” The AXA Global Short Duration Bond fund has the flexibility to invest across the short-dated fixed income universe the managers are allocating more defensively Trindade says they are happy to carry less high-risk investments in the portfolio with less emerging market risk than usual as he believes there will be a better entry point in the future “There are a lot less opportunities in the market right now than just 12 months ago when there was an underperformance of French assets on the back of Emmanuel Macron calling a snap election in July we took that as an opportunity for us to add exposure to French assets “We bought some French government bonds and some French banks ahead of the first round of voting because our view was that the likelihood of an outright majority from the far left and far right was quite limited we were happy to buy more French risk assets at much more attractive valuations.” See also: Morningstar: Fixed income funds see highest net flows in five years Another area of the market he finds appealing is in sterling investment grade bonds particularly in other UK water companies on the back of Thames Water’s recent struggles “Thames Water has been going through a difficult time and we haven’t had any exposure to that for some time that has created some pressure on other UK water names and some of them are very well run with adequate amounts of leverage and have been underperforming because of what’s been happening with Thames Water “It has created opportunities for us as active managers to pick the names we like fundamentally at much more attractive spreads.” the arrival of a new government in the UK has prompted many investors to begin to explore opportunities in Britain once again after years of negative sentiment Asked about the implications of the change in government for fixed income Trindade says: “It makes it more attractive at the asset class level There are a lot of investors that just wouldn’t look at sterling investment grade because of what was happening in the UK since Brexit and we are overweight sterling investment grade in our Global fund “Some investors may revisit the case for UK equities because of the expected political stability and a centralised government which has quite a business-friendly agenda I think that is a positive for the asset class because the political instability that we have had in the last couple of years was a big break on overseas investors looking at assets.” he expects the BoE to cut rates twice this year “We think the BoE has quite a strong incentive to cut rates this year and next year because there’s still that time bomb of mortgages which will have an impact not only on mortgage holders “I think there’s an acknowledgement from the BoE that that’s going to have a massive impact on consumer spending and therefore they need to get ahead of the game from that perspective.” values and vision; our pledge to sustainability and road to net zero; and learn about life at AXA IM you are not

View this post on Instagram A post shared by André Trindade (@andre7) Andre marked his Player of the Month win with a post on Instagram – and hundreds of fans congratulated him He also received a comment from Pedro Lima who left a comment that plenty of fans will firmly agree with which of course translates to ‘Monster 🔥’ so it just shows what a top player he is that he can look so comfortable He is always available at the base of midfielder and very rarely gives the ball away when he has it Perhaps not on the same level as his midfield partner Joao Gomes But he’s definitely happy to put a foot in He’s also a great dribbler. Data from March showed Andre actually had 100% dribble success rate and it’s now dawning on people why there was actually a bit of surprise that Wanderers beat off the competition to sign him last summer Blog of the European Journal of International Law was unquestionably a towering figure of international law and a profound influence on many Cançado Trindade had always kept an intransigent commitment to humanized international law one sensitive and attentive to the needs of individual human beings His inexhaustible intellectual curiosity and deep passion for international law were only matched by his kindness and humility Born in Belo Horizonte (Brazil) in 1947 to a family of medical doctors Cançado Trindade was fascinated by international law While pursuing a law degree at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) His interest in international law manifested quite early in law school to the point that he would skip other classes to go to the library and read the Collected Courses of the Hague Academy After graduating from the UFMG in 1969 and with the deepening of the military dictatorship in Brazil he decided to continue his graduate studies in law at Cambridge he travelled frequently to Strasbourg and followed the developments in the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights in the 1970s Cançado Trindade also became the first Latin American to receive the Diploma from the Intenational Institute of Human Rights His doctoral research on the application of the rule of exhaustion of local remedies and its relevance for the protection of human rights earned him the Yorke Prize and became a seminal work on the topic that after submitting his 1700-page thesis the Faculty of Law of the University of Cambridge decided to change the regulations to limit the length of PhD theses to 100,000 words Cançado Trindade started his teaching career at University of Brasilia in 1978 and later at the Rio Branco Institute (the Brazilian Diplomatic Academy) where he taught different generations of lawyers and Brazilian diplomats for 30 years and communicating knowledge accompanied him throughout his career and became even more salient when he was at the international bench he tried to bring together these different branches of international law under an overarching I still remember the shock I felt when I arrived in Geneva to study international law and suddenly realised that not everyone was enthusiastic about jus cogens that the pro persona principle was something that only existed in the “distant” Inter-American Human Rights System and that Humankind was not a subject of international law the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights the Inter-American Convention to Prevent and Punish Torture among others Cançado Trindade worked as a legal consultant for several UN agencies and other international organizations while keeping a good relationship with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs he was nominated director of the Inter-American Institute for Human Rights and later that year joined the Brazilian delegation to the World Conference on Human Rights Due to his already notoriety in the field of international human rights law he was elected in 1994 by the General Assembly of the Organization of American States to serve as a judge in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights His influence in the jurisprudential developments of the Court was so immense that some have called it the Corte Cançado Trindade the needs of individual human beings were front and centre Asked about being the smallest of the minorities he would quote Isaiah Berlin’s Against the Current: one cannot settle for conventional wisdom but needs to seek for ways to improve the human condition Instead of hiding under the veil of neutrality and impartiality he was explicit about his commitments and worldview Some have frowned at his style and criticized him for being too prolix and counterproductive but Cançado Trindade was faithful to his tradition and consistent throughout his career He brought to bear an unmistakably Mineiro accent that was conciliatory Coming from a country where judges are required by law to explain their decisions in writing and court’s deliberations are not only open to the public but also broadcasted on live TV Unbothered about the lack of adhesion to his positions by his peers he hoped to infuse his humanized sensibilities into the new generations of international law scholars (and judging from the reactions to his death He was always keen to engage with students As he wrote in the final pages of his General Course in the Hague Academy: by learning properly the lessons of the past It has been in historical moments of crisis such as the one we currently witness and endure that one has gathered energy and found inspiration to endeavour to improve the human condition Human conscience does not capitulate in face of great adversities;

We reported over the weekend that Manchester United and Wolves denied any interest in Andre Trindade, with the Brazilian potentially on his way to the Premier League Back in July, HITC also reported that Fulham were confident of signing Andre from the South American side but the Cottagers turned their attention to Norwegian Sander Berge from Burnley with the fee being in the region of £25 million The signing of Berge has meant that Fulham have ended their interest in Andre and now Nottingham Forest could be the latest side to enter the race for the Brazilian According to a report from South American outlet Lance Nuno Espirito Santo’s Forest are the latest side to register their interest in the 24-year-old midfielder Fluminense president Mário Bittencourt has said he’ll do everything to find a European club for the player in this window He has also stated the Brazil international has received approaches from other clubs after Fulham ended their interest following the signing of Berge Forest midfielder Danilo suffered an injury earlier this month and the report says this could be another factor for the Reds to make an approach for his compatriot was reportedly in Brazil to watch the U20 Intercontinental Cup tie between Flamengo and Olympiacos It is unclear if the Greek owner was in South America to hold talks over a deal for Andre but there seems to be murmurings Back in January, Andre had been linked with a move to Turkey but HITC reported that the midfielder was desperate to move to the Premier League. Fulham had agreed terms back then but Joao Palhinha remained at the West London club which meant they couldn’t get a deal over the line for the Brazilian With just days to go before the transfer window in England slams shut surely this will be the time for the Brazilian to finally get his dream move to the Premier League and potentially to a historic club like Forest The Brazilian midfielder could have been the Reds’ new number six but chose to stay and win the Copa Libertadores with his boyhood club Few Liverpool supporters will have begrudged Andre – or Fluminense – that decision but 12 months on and the picture is now very different Andre has missed most of the season, which began in April, and Flu are rock bottom of the Brazilian top flight. The 23-year-old’s value has plummeted following that failed move to Anfield Nevertheless, the Fluminense president has mentioned Liverpool and Andre once again this week When Liverpool pulled out of the race to sign Andre last year it was clear that the Brazil international was going nowhere at that time the expectation was very much that Andre would be properly on the market once the European winter window rolled around Some might have expected Liverpool to come back in, but the Reds did not. Instead, Fulham seemed the the most likely to sign Andre No deal was ever completed by the Cottagers Fast forward to this summer and Fulham are again being linked with Andre with a move reportedly very close to being completed READ MORE: Brazilian football expert explains why Andre Trindade is better than Bruno Guimaraes Despite Liverpool staying away from the midfielder, they have still not fully sorted their defensive midfield issue. As a result of Liverpool’s interest in Andre being so strong last year it has felt as though he may still be on the shortlist at Anfield or even no chance of Liverpool coming back in for Andre “I haven’t heard Liverpool’s name come up again,” Bailey exclusively tells Rousing The Kop they’ve got a need for him with Joao Palhinha leaving From what I’m hearing there’s no talk of Liverpool coming back in.” Liverpool are really missing a trick by not signing Andre He is clearly available at a decent price and they have obviously already done their homework on him There was a reason they were close to making him a Liverpool player last year and we don’t see how an awful lot has changed since then the moment for Andre to join the Reds does appear to have well and truly gone But that doesn’t mean that Liverpool’s need for a player in his mould has disappeared, too. Arne Slot could still do with a tough-tackling Consequently, we think Slot may still sign Ederson, Andre’s teammate in the Brazilian national team. Atalanta have just signed a new defensive midfielder and therefore the door could be open for Liverpool and Ederson. In the meantime, we fully expect to see Andre join Fulham before coming back on Liverpool’s radar for twice the price somewhere down the line. That’s just the way it goes. the most hard-nosed of Wolves supporters must feel some sympathy for a player only a few months into his Premier League career Wolverhampton Wanderers won the £21 million race over the summer with the man in question hoping he was joining a club looking to build upon a mixed first season under Gary O’Neil Instead, it appears that Andre Trindade ended up purchasing a ticket for the Titanic rewarded only with a close-up view of the iceberg ready to send Wolverhampton Wanderers sinking into the seabed The former Fluminense midfielder hasn’t exactly set the world alight in his 10 Premier League starts thus far it is hard to think of more trying circumstances for a new player hoping to settle into a new league and a new country considered distribution has been a rare glint of bright in an otherwise pitch-black sky – the Brazil international performed ‘very while completing 100 per cent of his passes – but as Wolves drift further and further into chaos Andre feels increasingly like a pilot trying to calmly guide his craft in the midst of an electrical storm the 2023 Copa Libertadores winner is maybe playing more minutes than he would have done at Liverpool Arriving at Molineux with ten Brazil caps under his belt and amid suggestions that he could be Casemiro’s long-term successor for the Selecao what impact will Wolves’ horror show of a season have on his once-glittering reputation Competition may have been far fiercer at Liverpool but Andre could be forgiven for glancing enviously at the Premier League table and wishing that Mario Bittencourt had issued a different response during the summer of 2023 When Liverpool submitted a £25 million bid for Andre Manchester United and high-flying Nottingham Forest were linked with Andre “We had an offer of 30 million euros from Liverpool for Andre. And we said ‘no’. We had agreed, along with the player, that we would not sell because we wanted to win the Libertadores,” Bittencourt tells Globo Esporte a decision justified when Fluminense defeated Boca Juniors to claim South America’s answer to the Champions League a few months later “We refused Liverpool to prioritise the Libertadores because they said it was financially irresponsible it would have been sportingly irresponsible.” Bittencourt would also confirm, via Radio Itatiaia, that Fulham ‘had been looking for Andre The Fluminense chief added that an offer had arrived from Craven Cottage that previous January too Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister at Anfield meant that Wolverhampton Wanderers found themselves with a relatively clear run at Andre when the time finally came to pack his bags back in August with Liverpool looking like clear favourites for the title and Wolves staring relegation in the face Bittencourt maybe shouldn’t expect a card from Andre Trindade this Christmas Liverpool’s pursuit of Premier League glory continues as they prepare to host Wolves at Anfield this Sunday This fixture isn’t just another match in their challenging schedule—it’s a pivotal moment But as the Reds seek to regain their momentum one player stands out as a symbol of what might have been: Wolves midfielder Andre Trindade Liverpool found themselves in need of midfield reinforcements After missing out on top targets to rivals His decision wasn’t about the allure of playing time or the promise of a higher profile; it was about honouring a commitment the last window I didn’t talk about it,” Andre revealed “It was really I couldn’t refuse; the club https://twitter.com/LibertadoresBR/status/1718311667182838239 Since joining Wolves for a £21 million deal from Fluminense Andre has not only settled but also shone in the Premier League he has demonstrated his ability to compete at the highest level intertwining skill with physicality—an essential blend for the English top flight Liverpool’s interest in the Brazilian hasn’t waned despite his initial rejection As the Reds aim to bolster their midfield options especially as they continue to scout for a new number six This Sunday’s match offers Liverpool’s manager potentially seeing him as a valuable addition for the next season this Sunday’s clash has significant implications for Liverpool The team’s recent performances have been a mixed bag with an unexpected FA Cup exit and a disheartening draw against Everton the pressure mounts not just to win but to win convincingly A loss or even a draw could severely dent their title hopes especially with challenging fixtures against Aston Villa the match at Anfield is more than just another game; it’s a chance to prove his worth against a team that once sought his services His performance will not only influence the game’s outcome but could also sway Liverpool’s summer transfer decisions A strong showing might solidify his place as a key player in the Premier League and perhaps pave the way for a future move to Merseyside As Liverpool continues their quest for domestic and European success the narrative of missed opportunities and what-ifs serves as a poignant reminder of the fine margins defining football’s complex transfer dynamics it’s not just points that are on the line at Anfield สล็อตเว็บตรง sister casino sites In association with the International Commission of Jurists [Moisés A.
