Kotak Mahindra Bank Shares Drop 7% on Asset Quality Concerns

Bloomberg6 hours ago
Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd. shares fell the most in more than three months on Monday after the private sector lender reported disappointing results and its rising credit costs spooked investors.
The Mumbai-based bank, backed by billionaire Uday Kotak, reported a nearly halving of its net income for the quarter ended June 30, citing stress, especially in loan portfolios, along with a compression in margins. The 7% decline in the stock made it the worst performer on the Nifty 50 Index, which shed as much as 0.4%.

Alibaba Unveils AI Glasses to Rival Meta's

Alibaba Group Holdings (BABA) unveiled its first AI-powered smart glasses Monday, as the Chinese tech giant launches a wearable with features rivaling those of Meta Platforms' (META) offering with Ray-Ban. Alibaba's U.S.-listed shares, which entered Monday up more than 40% this year, are rising 1.5% in premarket trading.

Alibaba's eyeglasses will be competing with those recently launched by Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi.

Not all wearable devices have been hits, however: Google Glass was pulled by parent Alphabet (GOOGL) from the market after two failed launches since 2014.

Celebrity Buddhist monk accused of embezzlement and adultery

Buddhist authorities in China stripped a celebrity Shaolin monk of his office amid a swirl of allegations over the weekend, including a criminal investigation into embezzlement and accusations that he fathered illegitimate children, the country's Buddhist Association said.

In the process, Shi Yongxin also established himself as one of China's best known religious figures — with his lofty commercial ambitions garnering him the nickname the 'CEO monk.'
