Copper price falls amid covid-19 worries www.mining.com

The copper price fell on Monday as the dollar hovered near its highest levels in months, making greenback-priced metals more expensive and less appealing to holders of other currencies.
Daily new coronavirus infections have been surging from the United States and Europe to Asia due to the spread of the Delta variant, making investors nervous about the global economic recovery and putting money into safe haven assets.
SIGN UP FOR THE COPPER DIGEST
Copper for delivery in September fell 2.7% from Friday’s settlement price, touching $4.204 per pound ($9,248 per tonne) midday Monday on the Comex market in New York.
Chinese reserves
China will strengthen commodity price monitoring and continue to release copper, aluminum, and zinc from its state reserves in batches, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) said on Monday.
The state planner sold 20,000 tonnes of copper, 50,000 tonnes of aluminum, and 30,000 tonnes of zinc from its reserves on July 5.
More than 200 non-ferrous fabricators attended the bidding, with sales prices about 3-9% lower than market price that day, the NDRC spokesman Yuan Da said at a press briefing.
“The release initially achieved the expected goal … targeted placement granted downstream fabricators an opportunity to replenish stocks and lower some companies’ raw material costs,” Yuan said.
The NDRC also pledged to keep reinforcing supervision of the futures and spot market and strictly crack down on irregularities such as hoarding, it said.

More Companies Pull Out of Tokyo Olympics Opening Ceremony www.bloomberg.com

More Japanese companies have decided against sending executives to Friday’s opening ceremony for the Tokyo Olympics as concerns about holding the games during the pandemic grow.
Senior officials from Nippon Telegraph & Telephone Corp., Fujitsu Ltd. and NEC Corp. will skip the event given that organizers decided to hold the games without spectators, spokespeople for the technology giants said Tuesday, a day after Toyota Motor Corp. announced its top executive wouldn’t attend.
Japan’s pledge to hold a safe and secure games is coming under threat as Covid-19 cases jump in Tokyo and visiting athletes test positive for the virus. In a fresh public relations setback, Japanese musician Keigo Oyamada, known as Cornelius, quit the team creating the opening ceremony after acknowledging he bullied school classmates with disabilities years ago.
The games will be the first in modern history to be held without spectators, after Tokyo entered another state of emergency that will run throughout the tournament.
Panasonic Corp. Chief Executive Officer Yuki Kusumi will miss the opening ceremony, although Chairman Kazuhiro Tsuga will attend in his role as vice president of the organizing committee, a spokesperson said.
Meiji Holdings Co. and Asahi Group Holdings Ltd. had already decided executives wouldn’t go, and bosses from Nippon Life Insurance Co. and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc. will also stay away, representatives said. Toyota President Akio Toyoda will miss the event, the automaker said Monday.
Japanese public support for the Olympics is mixed at best, raising questions over the merits of using the competition for marketing.
Toyota won’t air local television advertisements during the games, despite being among the global sponsors. Bridgestone Corp. had already decided not to broadcast commercials, a spokesman for the tiremaker said.
NTT plans to run commercials featuring athletes, although it has yet make a final decision. Nomura Holdings Inc. and Mizuho Financial Group Inc. plan to continue airing ads, according to spokespeople. Eneos Holdings Inc. is seeking to do the same, although it may change its ad policy depending on the situation, a representative for the petroleum refiner said.

Two dams in Inner Mongolia collapse after heavy rain www.globaltimes.cn

Two dams in Hulun Buir City in North China's Inner Mongolia were reported to have collapsed on Sunday because of heavy rain since Saturday, but no injuries have been reported.
On July 18, the dams on the open spillway of Yong'an Reservoir and Xinfa Reservoir in the Daur Autonomous Banner of Morin Dawa, were breached and collapsed as the water level of the Nuomin River continued to rise because of heavy rain, according to People's Daily.
The dam collapse reportedly affected 16,660 people, flooded 325,622 mu (21708.1 hectares) of farmland, and destroyed 22 bridges, 124 culverts, and 15.6 kilometers of highways.
At 8 pm on Sunday, the national flood control administration issued a third-level emergency response and sent a working group to the scene to guide and assist local emergency management.

ICC inducts Mongolia, Tajikistan and Switzerland as new members www.espncricinfo.com

The ICC has announced that Mongolia, Tajikistan and Switzerland will be its newest members during the 78th Annual General Meeting.
Mongolia and Tajikistan are the 22nd and 23rd members of the Asia region, while Switzerland is Europe's 35th Member, with the ICC now comprising 106 Members in total, including 94 Associates.
Meanwhile, Zambia, which was suspended at the ICC AGM in 2019, is no longer a member due to continued non-compliance with ICC Membership Criteria. Russia too has been suspended and, according to a release, has until the time of the next ICC AGM to demonstrate compliance or risk having its membership terminated.
The ICC Membership Criteria Zambia and Russia failed to meet

"All three applications demonstrated an impressive commitment to growing the game - particularly amongst women and youth - and we look forward to assisting them in achieving their potential.
"As cricket activity begins to emerge from the pandemic, we are at an exciting stage of cricket's growth with ambitious plans and projects to deliver in partnership with our Members to not only navigate the impact of Covid-19 but to also help achieve transformative growth for the sport globally."

China’s crackdown on firms trading in US could kill $2 TRILLION listings market www.rt.com

New regulations concerning listings of Chinese firms on foreign exchanges are likely to mean that Beijing aims to put a lid on the US IPO market altogether, market experts say.
The Chinese State Council said in a recent statement that all businesses with 1 million or more users will have to get approval from the country’s cybersecurity regulator if they want to list overseas. Prior to that, Beijing also announced plans to amend the rules of “the overseas listing system for domestic enterprises,” as well as to enforce control of cross-border data flows and security. These steps may bring about an end to Chinese initial public offerings (IPOs) in the US, industry experts say.
“It’s unlikely there will be any US-listed Chinese companies in five to 10 years, other than perhaps a few big ones with secondary listings,” Paul Gillis, a professor at Peking University’s Guanghua School of Management in Beijing, told Bloomberg.
Until recently, there were some 248 Chinese companies listed on US exchanges, mostly tech firms, including eight state-owned enterprises, with a total market capitalization amounting to $2.1 trillion, CNBC reported, citing the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission. Now, the Invesco Golden Dragon China ETF (PGJ), which tracks US-listed Chinese shares, has reported that the number has dropped by a third over the past six months amid the regulatory crackdown.
The situation escalated in June when China’s ride-hailing app Didi Global Inc. went for a New York listing despite objections from regulators, who reportedly suggested it list in Hong Kong instead. The company’s shares plunged nearly 20% after Beijing announced a cybersecurity probe, banning Didi’s new user registrations. US-listed Alibaba and Tencent have also recently fallen under government scrutiny.
Overall, US-traded Chinese stocks have decreased nearly 30% this month. Chinese authorities are putting high hopes on the Hong Kong exchange for domestic listings, planning to ease the regulation demanding Hong Kong IPOs seek the approval of the country’s cybersecurity regulator to make it more appealing to companies that wish to go public. Currently, the processing of IPO applications takes too much time due to the regulation.
With this in mind, the amount of new Chinese listings in the US may drop significantly in the near future, says Donald Straszheim, senior managing director of China research at Evercore ISI Group.
“Beijing [is] not trying to stop all US listings. Still, business ties between the US and China are better than not. Beijing [is] trying to add a layer of protection against corporate foreign compliance,” Straszheim said in a note to CNBC.

Mongolia’s first woman Olympic flag bearer www.news.mn

At just 21 years old, 3×3 star O.Khulan has been selected to become the flag-bearer for Mongolia at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, the first-ever woman to get this honor.
The 5ft 11in (1.80m) player is starting to get used to making history. She’s becomes part of the first team in Mongolian history to compete at the Olympic Games. Her country has a rich history of winning medals in individual sports such as wrestling, boxing and judo (9,8 and 7 medals respectively) but had never ever been at the Olympics in a team sport or discipline.
“I’m happy for sure,” O.Khulan said. “But the biggest emotion is the pride to be Mongolian. I just can’t wrap my head around the idea that I am given this huge opportunity on the biggest stage in sports, at the Olympics. It is every athlete’s dream to represent your country on the biggest stage possible.
After making her 3×3 debut in 2017, she became a household name on the 3×3 scene after leading Mongolia to the quarter-finals of the FIBA 3×3 U23 World Cup 2019, including a memorable buzzer-beating win against Germany.
In her perfect English – she went to school in Australia – she had given a long interview to FIBA3x3.basketball about the incredible rise of 3×3 in Mongolia.
On July 9, she officially received the national flag from Mongolian President U.Khurelsukh in an official ceremony.
O.Khulan became the second 3×3 athlete to become a flag-bearer at the Olympian opening ceremony after Latvia’s Agnis Cavars. /FIBA/
