Leslie's, SoundHound AI, E.W. Scripps, eHealth, and VF Corp Shares Are Falling, What You Need To Know
This move is far more than a typical trade dispute; it targets the United States' largest and most deeply integrated trading partner. Canada is not merely a neighbor but a critical component of North American supply chains, particularly in sectors like automotive, energy, and critical minerals. This move has sparked concerns about potential retaliatory actions and a wider impact on the North American economy, leading to a risk-off sentiment among investors. The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq all opened lower, pulling back from recent record highs and heading for their first weekly loss in three weeks.

Sterling bounces off two-year low on euro, soft on dollar
LONDON (Reuters) -The pound briefly hit a two-year low versus the euro on Monday, before rebounding, and dipped on the dollar, though its moves were largely a function of those elsewhere as investors digested the announcement of an EU-U.S. trade deal. The pound was last down 0.2% on the dollar at $1.34185, its lowest in a week, having struggled late last week because of soft British retail sales and business activity data. The pound was more volatile against the euro, which rose as high as 87.69 pence in early Asia trade, its highest since May 2023, as its gains last week were extended in a kneejerk bounce after the announcement of the trade deal. The common currency then reversed course, both broadly, and on the pound, as investors speculated that U.S. trade deals, in aggregate, would boost the dollar and so the euro's gains at its expense would cease. [FRX/] On the pound the euro was last down 0.5% at 86.99 pence. Investors are divided on sterling, partly due to disagreement on whether the Bank of England will step up the pace of its rate cuts later this year, something that would weigh on the currency. Inflation in Britain has proven sticky, meaning policymakers are loath to cut rates too quickly unless they are forced to, and recent data - soft but not terrible - has not yet definitively answered that question. "Another round of only modestly weaker data than expected were enough to push sterling to fresh lows versus the euro," said Barclays analysts in a note. "In our view, the pound's weakness is overdone and due a correction," they said, anticipating that the euro will fall to around 85 pence, which would be consistent with the gap between British and euro zone interest rates. Others expect that more BoE cuts, while the ECB now appears to be on hold, would hurt the pound against the euro. Nomura analysts see the euro rising to 89.75 pence. Little British economic data is due this week. The BoE meets next week, and markets are all but fully pricing in a 25 basis point rate cut, one of only two more they expect this year.

US LNG producers soar as EU agrees to $250 billion in annual purchases
(Reuters) -Shares of U.S. liquefied natural gas developers surged in premarket trading on Monday, after the European Union pledged to purchase $750 billion worth of the super-cooled fuel over the next three years as part of a sweeping trade pact. NextDecade, Venture Global, and Cheniere Energy jumped between 7% and 8.8%, with the deal bolstering the prospects for American LNG exporters as they expand to meet growing demand for cleaner-burning fuels. The EU, seeking to phase out its dependence on Russian gas, committed to buying $250 billion annually in U.S. LNG as part of the framework trade agreement unveiled on Sunday. The U.S. became the world's biggest LNG supplier in 2023, surpassing Australia and Qatar, as surging global prices fed demand for more exports, due in part to supply disruptions and sanctions linked to Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The agreement imposes a 15% U.S. import tariff on most EU goods, a softer blow than markets had feared. "Terms of the EU-U.S. trade deal were at the forefront, with the 15% tariff level better than feared (30% was mooted previously)," said Ashley Kelty, an analyst at Panmure Liberum. "This should see less of a drag on industrial activity between the two." Still, Kelty noted the deal could weigh on gas prices. "The demand for the EU to buy more U.S. energy will see more U.S. LNG imports in the future," Kelty said, signalling a potential supply glut. Shares of U.S. natural gas producers Expand Energy and EQT Corp were up 1.6% and 3%, respectively, before the bell.

Nova Minerals Advises Permitting for the West Susitna Access Road to the Estelle Project Site has been Submitted
Anchorage Alaska, July 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nova Minerals Limited ('Nova' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: NVA) (ASX: NVA) (FRA: QM3) ) is pleased to announced that the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA) has submitted its application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the permitting of the West Susitna Access Road. The permitting process for the all-weather public and industrial road will occur in 2025-2026 and further strengthens Nova's momentum as it advances the Estelle Project. The proposed 78.5-mile long road will begin approximately 1.4 miles west of Alexander Creek and extend to the Whiskey Bravo airstrip and mineral exploration camp (Figure 1). Following the Skwentna River's northern edge before crossing to its southern side, the route is designed to allow year-round public access to lands that are currently difficult to reach except by air or water. As a company deeply committed to advancing responsible exploration and unlocking Alaska's critical mineral potential, Nova Minerals sees this project as essential infrastructure for future development in the region. With this road in place, not only will essential logistics and access be significantly improved, but new opportunities are expected to also arise for Alaskan families, local businesses, and resource developers alike. Highlights The Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA) has submitted its application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the permitting of the West Susitna Access Road, which will occur in 2025/2026. The West Susitna Access Road is a critical infrastructure project, consisting of a 78.5-mile all-weather road for both public and industrial use (Figure 1). It is intended to support the Estelle Project and the surrounding region and is expected to lower barriers to resource development, substantially reduce the cost of mining in the West Susitna region, and enhance local access and economic opportunities. The road will connect to a separate road project being led by the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (ADOT&PF) that will extend 22-miles of new public and industry road surface west from the existing road system and will include a large bridge across the Susitna River. The ADOT&PF project is scheduled to begin construction in late 2025 and to be fully constructed by 2026/2027. Pursuant to Executive Order 14153, the Governor of Alaska has requested that the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works render 'all assistance' required to obtain the necessary approvals for the project. Pursuant to Executive Order 14241, the Governor has also requested that the project be deemed a 'priority project' and placed on an expediated permitting schedule, as well as emergency approval pursuant to section 2 of Executive Order 14156, as the project is important to Alaska, the Nation, and the future of the Nation's energy dominance and national security. Nova CEO, Mr Christopher Gerteisen commented: 'The West Susitna Access Road represents a critical step forward for the Mat-Su region, Alaska, and beyond. This transformative infrastructure project is expected to not only unlock significant economic opportunities by facilitating resource development, but also enhance local access and create jobs in the process. We are proud to support AIDEA and the state's ongoing efforts to build a stronger, more sustainable future through infrastructure development. The state's commitment to expanding access to Alaska's vast public lands aligns well with our shared vision for long-term economic growth and national security. We are excited to see the potential positive impact this project could have on both the local community and the state's broader economic landscape.' West Susitna Road Welcomed by Government Officials and Local Stakeholders Gov. Mike Dunleavy welcomed the advancement of the project, calling it a strategic move to boost economic development in the region: 'AIDEA's West Susitna Road holds significant value for Alaskans, especially local residents seeking better access to hunting, fishing, recreation, and potential opportunities in mining, processing, and manufacturing.' Funding for the road is expected to follow a public-private partnership model similar to AIDEA's Delong Mountain Transportation System, which supports the Red Dog Mine. That approach has previously yielded long-term economic gains through infrastructure that serves both public and private needs. Support for the project spans political and community lines. Matanuska-Susitna Borough Mayor Edna DeVries called the road 'a strategic investment in our region's future,' emphasizing its potential to provide long-overdue access for families and businesses. 'Reliable road access means a stronger local economy and more opportunities for recreation and responsible development,' DeVries said. State lawmakers have also backed the project as a critical step in unlocking Alaska's resource potential. 'The West Susitna Access is an exciting opportunity not only to potentially unlock some of Alaska's extraordinary resource potential, but to provide all Alaskans new access to the recreation and outdoor opportunities found in the West Su,' said Rep. Kevin McCabe. Sen. Mike Shower highlighted the national security and economic benefits of increased access to minerals like copper, gold, and antimony. 'Responsible resource development is critical for Alaska, the United States and our allies,' he said, noting the road's potential role in supporting jobs and technology supply chains. Public land access advocates have also weighed in. Rod Arno, public policy director for the Alaska Outdoor Council, said the group 'remains in strong support of the state creating more overland access to public lands/waters for all Alaskans.' He added that resource roads have historically become gateways to outdoor recreation and that the council will monitor the project's progress to ensure renewable resource protections remain strong. Local business owners echoed that enthusiasm. Cindi Hermans, president of Friends of West Susitna and owner of the Skwentna Roadhouse, called the permit application a long-awaited milestone: 'It has been a long time coming, and we are eager to see the positive impact it will have on our community and surrounding areas.' Nova Minerals stands firmly behind the West Susitna Access Project and looks forward to working alongside stakeholders to realize the shared benefits this infrastructure will bring to all Alaskans. The permit application marks a key regulatory step in the project's development and begins a review process that includes federal agency input and opportunities for public comment. The project reflects Alaska's constitutional mandate to develop state lands for maximum public benefit, balancing access, economic development, and conservation.
