Hiscox does not have direct exposure to the business interruption policy of the port, which is the busiest in the United States for auto shipments, or the property policy covering the bridge, the insurer said in its first-quarter trading statement.

The Nifty 50, India's main equity gauge, is trading at record-high levels amid surveys predicting Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will emerge victorious in the elections that started on April 19 and runs through June 4, when results are due. A month before that, the implied volatility of a put option with a strike price that is 10% below the current level of the Nifty 50 Index is at 18%-20% on the National Stock Exchange.
Canadian oil and gas company Cenovus Energy beat first-quarter profit estimates on Wednesday due to higher production and refinery throughput, and executives said the start-up of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion (TMX) would open up new markets. TMX will nearly triple the flow of oil to Canada's west coast to 890,000 barrels per day, which is expected to transform access to global markets for the country's producers.

Canada in March recorded a surprise trade deficit of C$2.28 billion ($1.66 billion), the largest in nine months, as exports declined faster than imports, data showed on Thursday. Total exports fell 5.3% in March mainly due to exports of unwrought gold declining from a record high reached in February, while imports were down 1.2%, led by electronics and metal ores and non-metallic minerals, Statistics Canada said. Analysts polled by Reuters had forecast a trade surplus of C$1.50 billion in the month.
The yen was steady at 157.87 per dollar following two days of volatile trade that saw it tumble beyond 160 for the first time in 34 years and then spring back as far as 154.40 in what now looks almost certain to have been intervention by Japanese authorities. The 10-year JGB yield rose 2 basis points to 0.89% as of 0543 GMT on Wednesday, recouping some ground lost the previous day, when it fell as low as 0.865%. Monday was a national holiday in Japan, forcing local investors to catch up with two days of declines for U.S. yields.
