  • Bitcoin Climbs as Analysts Say Getting Back to $40,000 Is Key

    (Bloomberg) -- Bitcoin rose to $37,000 on Monday, back toward a level that strategists at JPMorgan Chase & Co. see as an inflection point for the digital coin.The cryptocurrency could be hurt by an exodus of trend-following investors unless it can “break out” above $40,000 soon, a team including Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou said. The pattern of demand for Bitcoin futures and the $22.9 billion Grayscale Bitcoin Trust will help determine the outlook, they added.“The flow into the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust would likely need to sustain its $100 million per day pace over the coming days and weeks for such a breakout to occur,” the strategists wrote in a note on Friday.Traders seeking clues about investor appetite for risk have been gripped by Bitcoin’s stunning rally and turbulent 12% slide from a record of almost $42,000 on Jan. 8. The cryptocurrency boom since March has reflected the ebullience of financial markets awash in stimulus -- as well as concern over whether gains will ultimately prove fleeting.The JPMorgan strategists said Bitcoin was in a similar position in late November, except with $20,000 as the test. Flows of institutional investment into the Grayscale trust helped the world’s largest cryptocurrency extend its rally, they wrote.Trend-following traders “could propagate the past week’s correction” and “momentum signals will naturally decay from here up till the end of March” if Bitcoin’s price fails to break above $40,000, they said.Bitcoin rose about 1.6% to $37,138 as of 12:29 p.m. in London on Monday. Ether, another popular digital coin, shed 1.6% to $1,241.Exactly what’s driven the yearlong near-quadrupling in Bitcoin’s price remains murky. Commentators have cited day traders, wealthy buyers, hedge funds, companies and even signs of interest from long-term investors like insurers.‘Dread to Think’Some, like Chris Iggo, remain skeptical of Bitcoin’s appeal to large institutions.“I dread to think what most risk officers would think about that being in a core investment portfolio,” the chief investment officer of core investments at Axa Investment Managers wrote in a note. “For assets to be considered in a long-term investment portfolio one should be able to attach some fundamental intrinsic value to them.”Bitcoin’s proponents argue it’s maturing as a hedge for dollar weakness and the possibility of faster inflation in a recovering global economy. Others say its defining characteristic remains speculative booms followed by busts.Read more: Does Bitcoin Boom Mean ‘Better Gold’ or Bigger Bubble?

  • Adani to Raise $2.5 Billion From Green Deal With Total

    (Bloomberg) -- Indian billionaire Gautam Adani is raising $2.5 billion from a deal that includes the sale of a minority stake in his renewables business to French energy giant Total SE, a transaction that may help the tycoon cut group debt.Paris-based Total will acquire 20% of Adani Green Energy Ltd. and a board seat as well as a 50% stake in a portfolio of operating solar assets with 2.35 gigawatts capacity, the company said Monday in a statement, confirming an earlier report by Bloomberg News. But shares of Adani Green have more than quadrupled in value in the past year in Mumbai, giving the company a market value of about $20 billion.Adani is the latest Indian tycoon to raise money by selling a piece of his empire to an overseas partner, as rising consumption of electricity to fuels and mobile data makes the country an attractive destination for some investors. Last year, Mukesh Ambani -- India’s richest man -- mopped up about $27 billion from Facebook Inc., Google and private-equity investors for his technology and retail ventures.“Primarily, this fund infusion will help Adani lower its leverage,” said Chakri Lokapriya, chief executive officer at TCG Asset Management in Mumbai. “Thanks to a series of deals, Adani is highly leveraged at this point of time.”The Adani group, which started off as a commodities trader in 1988, has grown rapidly to become India’s top private-sector port operator and power generator. In 2019, Adani started focusing on airports, and now he’s trying to enter sectors including data storage and financial services.The group had an overall gross debt of 1.74 trillion rupees ($24 billion) as of end-September, according to a November report from Credit Suisse. Adani Enterprises Ltd., the biggest listed company in his group, had about $1.7 billion of consolidated debt as of March 2020, according to Brickwork Ratings.The latest transaction marks Total’s third commitment to the Adani group. In 2019, the French firm spent $600 million to buy a 37.4% stake in Adani Gas Ltd., now called Adani Total Gas, and in February last year, acquired 50% of a solar assets joint venture.“India is the right place to put into action our energy transition strategy based on two pillars: renewables and natural gas,” Total CEO Patrick Pouyanne said in the statement.It’s also Total’s third deal in a week in the renewables area, following the acquisition of a French biogas producer and of a stake in a large U.S. solar portfolio, underscoring mounting pressure from investors, governments and consumers on energy giants to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.Total, which invested $8 billion from 2016 to 2020 in battery manufacturing, power utilities, solar and wind projects, intends to increase spending on electricity and clean energy to become one of the top five renewable companies by the end of the decade. The producer, which had close to 7 gigawatts of gross renewable power capacity at the end of last year, is targeting 35 gigawatts by 2025.Stiff Targets“Renewable energy investment will have to be ramped up and oil and gas supermajors have set themselves fairly stiff targets,” said Debasish Mishra, a Mumbai-based partner at Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu. “India, given its increasing energy demand, renewable energy potential and policy intent, is an attractive investment destination.”Adani Green is targeting 25 gigawatts of renewable capacity by 2025, the company said in a separate statement. Chairman Adani last year signaled there was room for founders to dilute their stake in the company and flagged global energy producers, including Total, were interested in investing as they expand their renewable portfolios.Adani Green shares rose as much as 3.4% on Monday in Mumbai.While Adani has done well at home, his controversial Carmichael coal mine in Australia has faced criticism from environmentalists, including from activist Greta Thunberg. Adani added $22.5 billion to his net worth last year to become India’s second-richest man, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.(Updates with Adani Group debt levels in the sixth paragraph.)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

  • Indian Zoo Stops Feeding Chickens to Hawks on Bird Flu Fears

    (Bloomberg) -- A state-run zoo in India has stopped feeding chickens to birds such as hawks, eagles and owls as bird flu outbreaks spread to more than 10 states in the country.Serological tests of a brown fish owl, which died at the National Zoological Park in New Delhi, confirmed that the bird was infected with the H5N8 virus, according to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. Birds in captivity at the zoo have been isolated, it said over the weekend.More deaths of crows, herons, swans, pigeons and poultry from avian influenza have been confirmed in the states of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Uttarakhand and Delhi, the animal husbandry ministry said in a separate statement late Sunday. Culling operations continue, it added.The outbreaks in the world’s second-biggest egg producer threaten the poultry industry, which is recovering after prices slumped last year on speculation that chickens could spread the coronavirus. The $14 billion industry directly or indirectly employs 5 million people and supports 25 million producers.The federal government has urged some affected states to reconsider their decisions to ban poultry sales and advised them to allow sellers to source chickens from non-infected areas. “Consumption of well-cooked chicken and eggs is safe for humans,” it said, adding that consumers should ignore rumors.The outbreak has slashed broiler chicken demand by about 30% to 7 million kilograms per day in January from a month earlier, according to Crisil, the Indian unit of S&P Global. The overall revenue of the sector could drop 30%-40% this month on lower volumes and a 20%-30% slump in wholesale prices, it said in a note.However, the price decline could be temporary, it said. “In recent past, the impact of such outbreaks has been temporary due to swift implementation of testing, culling and containment protocols by the authorities. Fears against chicken consumption do not last for more than a few weeks as the infection rate abates.”Venky’s India Ltd., which reported about half of its revenue from poultry sales in 2019-20, said on Monday that the organized poultry sector has not reported any positive bird flu case so far. Shares of Venky’s dropped 1%, while agribusiness company Godrej Agrovet Ltd. fell 1.1%.(Updates with comments in seventh paragraph)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

  • BC Craft Supply Co Announces Letter of Intent with Psilocybin Research and Development Company Ava Pathways

    VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BC Craft Supply Co. Ltd. (the “Company” or “BC Craft”) (CSE: CRFT) (OTC:CRFTF) (FSE:ZZD1) is pleased to announce that it entered into a binding letter of intent (“LOI”) on January 15, 2021, to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Ava Pathways Inc. (“Ava Pathways”), from arm’s length parties (the “Acquisition”). Based in Vancouver, BC, Ava Pathways is an innovative company that is exploring the therapeutic scientific benefits of proprietary formulations, using compounds from mushrooms. Ava Pathways was founded by scientists and researchers focused on neuroplasticity and alternative ways to treat common and debilitating medical conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use disorder, through the use of psychedelic-based treatments. Similar to craft cannabis, both plant-based treatments require a cultivation supply network to create proprietary strains that produce optimal results for the patient or end-user. Ava Pathways brings exceptional access to tested and standardized naturally-derived and synthetic materials which allows for the production of superior psychoactive and non-psychoactive formulations. BC Craft has been a pioneer in the craft cannabis sector since pre-legalization and continues that mission by acting as a comprehensive solution partner to other plant-based craft companies while advocating on their behalf. Ava Pathways embodies that same compassionate mentality with the end-users well-being in mind. Ava Pathways has over twenty collective years of experience and relationships in strong pre-clinical and clinical experimental programs that aim to provide patient and data-driven treatment through a robust clinical treatment network, which combine holistic and personalized treatment plans, therapy and education. Ava Pathways is headed up by CEO Dr. Lily Aleksandrova, a published expert in the field; Dr. Aleksandrova completed her Ph.D. in Neuroscience at UBC and boasts 10+ years of research experience in neuroscience, pharmacology and clinical research labs investigating novel neuropsychiatric treatments. Matthew Watters, CEO of BC Craft stated, “We are delighted by the opportunity to bring Dr. Lily Aleksandrova and Ava Pathways into the BC Craft family, and into the long-term strategic direction of the Company which seeks to commercialize high-end artisanal brands in the cannabis industry, and in the emerging psychedelic space when the legal framework should allow." Mr. Watters goes on to state, “The LOI with Ava Pathways comes at an opportune time whereby the use of psychedelic compounds such as psilocybin in functional medicine has gained widespread and scientifically backed support from researchers as well as an increased social acceptance from the broader population.” TERMS OF THE ACQUISITIONUnder the terms of the LOI, BC Craft and the shareholders of Ava Pathways will enter into a definitive agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) pursuant to which BC Craft will acquire all of the ownership interests in Ava Pathways, and Ava Pathways will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of BC Craft. As consideration, BC Craft will issue 38,095,238 units (“Units”) of the Company to the shareholders of Ava Pathways on a pro-rata basis, issued at a deemed value of $0.105 per Unit. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share (each a “Share”) and one transferable common share purchase warrant (each a “Warrant”) that is exercisable to acquire one additional Share at a price of $0.14 for a period of two years from closing. Entering into the Definitive Agreement and closing the Acquisition is conditional on satisfactory due diligence as well as other conditions customary in transactions of this nature, including receipt of regulatory approvals. ABOUT BC CRAFT SUPPLY CO. Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, BC Craft Supply Co. has aggregated the best legacy-era talent from Canada's craft cannabis industry, which boasts an international reputation. The team at BC Craft supports the most talented cannabis cultivators in Canada to transition into their supply chain, bringing with them their unique cultivars and years of experience with the plant. In exchange for support with licensing, compliance and distribution, cultivators will sign on as a BC Craft supplier.

    Results include 4.67 g/t Au over 34m, 5.91 g/t Au over 11m, 3.51 g/t Au over 13m, 2.53 g/t Au over 16m, 35.88 g/t Au over 2m Figure 1 Location Map, Valentine Gold Project Figure 2 Location of Berry Zone Exploration Drill Hole Collars VL-20-924 to VL-20-937 Figure 3 Cross section 13710 (View NE) Sprite Corridor, Valentine Gold Project. Figure 4 Cross section 14720 (View NE) Sprite Corridor, Valentine Gold Project. TORONTO, Jan. 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Marathon Gold Corporation (“Marathon” or the “Company”; TSX: MOZ) is pleased to report additional drill results from recent exploration drilling at the Valentine Gold Project, central Newfoundland (the “Project”). These latest results represent fire assay data from fourteen drill holes located within the 1.5 kilometre long Berry Zone. Highlights include: VL-20-927 intersected 4.67 g/t Au over 34 metres including 24.14 g/t Au over 2 metres, 39.48 g/t Au over 1 metre and 35.71 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 5.91 g/t Au over 11 metres including 43.00 g/t over 1 metre and 12.70 g/t Au over 1 metre;VL-20-932 intersected 3.51 g/t Au over 13 metres including 31.79 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 8.67 g/t Au over 2 metres including 15.02 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 12.29 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 11.59 g/t Au over 1 metre;VL-20-926 intersected 2.53 g/t Au over 16 metres including 27.16 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 4.36 g/t Au over 4 metres including 11.99 g/t Au over 1 metre;VL-20-924 intersected 35.88 g/t Au over 2 metres;VL-20-925 intersected 0.97 g/t Au over 24 metres; andVL-20-930 intersected 5.59 g/t Au over 4 metres including 17.96 g/t Au over 1 metre, and 2.06 g/t Au over 7 metres; All quoted intersections comprise uncut gold assays in core lengths. All significant assay intervals are reported in Table 1. Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: “Today’s results represent additional fire assays from the Berry Zone completed as part of our 2020 exploration drill program. We continue to be encouraged by repeated long and high grade intercepts of shear-zone hosted gold mineralization in the style familiar to us from elsewhere at the Valentine Gold Project. Fire assay results from the final fifteen holes drilled in 2020, representing 2,875 metres, are expected to be received shortly. A first mineral resource estimate for Berry is expected toward the end of Q1 2021.” Matt Manson continued: “Exploration drilling at the Valentine Gold Project will recommence this week with our Newfoundland based site team following the recent receipt of our 2021 exploration permits. A full overview of plans and objectives for the 2021 program will be released shortly. In the meantime, we will start where we left off at the Berry Zone, with further infill and delineation over the full 1.5 kilometre long interval of mineralization outlined from our 2020 drilling. Overall, an exploration program similar in scope to last year is planned, with approximately 50,000 metres of drilling supplemented by surface prospecting. This work will be conducted in parallel with the Project’s ongoing engineering and environmental assessment activities, which are based on the 12-year mine plan represented by the existing Marathon and Leprechaun Deposits.” Gold mineralization at the Valentine Gold Project is contained predominantly within shallowly southwest dipping, en-echelon stacked Quartz-Tourmaline-Pyrite-Gold (“QTP-Au”) veins. At the Leprechaun and Marathon Deposits, as well as at the new Berry Zone, these QTP-Au veins form densely stacked and northwest plunging “Main Zone” envelopes within intrusive host rocks on the hanging wall (northwest) side of the Valentine Lake Shear Zone. The extent of mineralization appears related to the size and frequency of sheared mafic dykes which extend northeast-southwest within the hanging wall, parallel to the shear zone. Exploration drilling is generally undertaken in two orientations: down steeply towards the northwest at a high angle to the individual veins and down-plunge of the Main Zone stacking, or obliquely towards the southeast sub-parallel to the individual veins and across the strike of Main Zone mineralization. The results released today are derived from ten drillholes located within or adjacent to the Berry infill drilling area between sections 13440E and 14080E, and an additional four drillholes in the Frozen Ear Pond Road area between sections 14720E and 14800E (Figure 2). Ten of the fourteen holes were oriented steeply down to the northwest testing for Main Zone type stacked QTP-Au mineralization close to the Valentine Lake Shear Zone (VL-20-924, 927, 928, 929, 930, 931, 934, 935, 936 and 937; Figures 3 and 4). Four holes were oriented steeply down to the northwest within hanging wall rocks but at a greater distance from the shear zone contact (VL-20-925, 926, 932 and 933). All fourteen drillholes returned “significant” drill intercepts of greater than 0.7 g/t Au (Table 1), and each drillhole returned additional intercepts with gold grades above the 0.3 g/t Au cut-off used in the January 2020 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Project.

(NL), Project Manager for exploration at the Valentine Gold Project. Exploration data quality assurance and control for Marathon is under the supervision of Jessica Borysenko, P.Geo (NL), GIS Manager for Marathon Gold Corporation. Both Mr. Capps and Ms. Borysenko are qualified persons under National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101. Quality Assurance-Quality Control (“QA/QC”) QA/QC protocols followed at the Valentine Gold Project include the insertion of blanks and standards at regular intervals in each sample batch. Drill core is cut in half with one half retained at site, the other half tagged and sent to Eastern Analytical Limited in Springdale, NL. All reported core samples are analyzed for Au by fire assay (30g) with AA finish. All samples above 0.30 g/t Au in economically interesting intervals are further assayed using metallic screen to mitigate the presence of coarse gold. Significant mineralized intervals are reported in Table 1 as core lengths and estimated true thickness (70 - 95% of core length), and reported with and without a top-cut of 30 g/t Au applied. Acknowledgments Marathon acknowledges the financial support of the Junior Exploration Assistance Program, Department of Natural Resources, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. About Marathon Marathon (TSX:MOZ) is a Toronto based gold company advancing its 100%-owned Valentine Gold Project located in the central region of Newfoundland and Labrador, one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world. The Project comprises a series of four mineralized deposits along a 20-kilometre system. An April 2020 Pre-Feasibility Study outlined an open pit mining and conventional milling operation over a twelve-year mine life with a 36% after-tax rate of return. The Project has estimated Proven Mineral Reserves of 1.3 Moz (26.3 Mt at 1.52 g/t) and Probable Mineral Reserves of 0.6 Moz (14.8 Mt at 1.23 g/t). Total Measured Mineral Resources (inclusive of the Mineral Reserves) comprise 1.9 Moz (31.7 Mt at 1.86 g/t) with Indicated Mineral Resources (inclusive of the Mineral Reserves) of 1.19 Moz (23.2 Mt at 1.60 g/t). Additional Inferred Mineral Resources are 0.96 Moz (16.77 Mt at 1.78 g/t Au).
