Speculation arose that some investors may sell shares before any change is made to capture the lower rate. Stocks had been mixed throughout the session amid mixed economic data and renewed concern the pandemic was worsening in some major economies.Most major groups in the S&P 500 fell, led by commodity, consumer and technology shares. AT&T Inc. rallied after beating profit estimates amid gains in wireless customers and growth in subscribers to its streaming service. Data Thursday showed sales of previously owned U.S. homes slid in March to a seven-month low, while jobless claims posted an unexpected decline last week.A gauge of market breadth suggests investor concerns remain.

New York City is suing three major oil companies and the top industry trade group in state court, arguing that the companies are misrepresenting themselves by selling fuels as "cleaner" and advertising themselves as leaders in fighting climate change. The lawsuit comes after a federal appeals court this month rejected the city's effort to hold five major oil companies liable to help pay the costs of harm caused by global warming. The lawsuit filed on Thursday said Exxon Mobil Corp, BP Plc, Royal Dutch Shell and industry group the American Petroleum Institute "have systematically and intentionally misled consumers" through fuel sales at branded stations as "cleaner" and "emissions-reducing" while not disclosing climate impacts.

Mabey Bridge Delta Hebrides Mabey Bridge Delta Hebrides LYDNEY, Gloucestershire, April 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mabey Bridge, a leading international modular bridging specialist, noted today it has been selected to design and install a 99 metre span bridge to link the islands of Great Bernera and Lewis in the Western Isles. Mabey Bridge’s structure will replace a bridge found deteriorated at inspection in August 2020 and immediately closed to traffic over 7.5 tonnes. The original Bernera Bridge was built in 1953 and is believed to be the first pre-stressed concrete road bridge in the United Kingdom. The vital transport corridor connecting the two islands crosses Loch Roag, a fast-flowing inlet of the Atlantic. Comhairle nan Eilean Siar ordered Mabey Bridge’s single-span Delta™ bridge to be installed on a permanent basis. It will provide safe access to vehicles up to 44 tonnes across a width of 4.2 metres, including a 1.05 metre pedestrian walkway. Unique among modular steel bridges, the Delta™ is available in clear spans up to 100 metres, which alleviates the need for intermediate piers. The advantage of fewer piers is quicker, easier installation than other construction methods, which is a significant advantage, particularly in time-critical projects such as this. Additionally, with less construction in the water, there is less potential for disturbances or damage to aquatic habitats and local ecology. Michael Treacy, CEO Mabey Bridge, said, “We’re delighted to be supplying the first Delta™ bridge to Scotland, and proud to have been selected to take part in this important project to restore a vital crossing to the benefit of the residents of Great Bernera. The Delta™ is unique in that it offers the longest modular steel span available in the market, making it an ideal high-quality solution for a wide range of applications where speed of installation is crucial.” The Delta™ bridge in Scotland is expected to be completed in summer 2021, in addition to several other Delta™ projects serving long-span applications around the world. About Mabey Bridge Mabey Bridge is a leading international provider of high-quality modular bridging solutions. We specialise in rapid-build, pre-engineered modular steel bridges to enable accelerated bridge construction and improve connectivity in urban and rural areas. We also deliver bridging solutions for the construction, oil and gas, and mining sectors, as well as for specialist military applications, humanitarian emergencies and disaster relief.
