ANN ARBOR, Mich. – After an inept offensive performance by the offense during the 2024 season, the Michigan Wolverines head coach Sherrone Moore has fired offensive coordinator Kirk Campbell . According to Moore, the firing occurred on Tuesday (Dec. 4) as the men in maize finished their defending championship season with a dismal 7-5 record. Recommended Videos Under Campbell’s direction, the Wolverines' offense finished the season ranked 128th out of 134th in FBS in yards per game, 122nd in yards per play, and 111th in points per game. “After a thorough assessment of our offense, I made the decision to relieve Kirk Campbell of his duties and move in a different direction,” said Moore. “This was a decision that I felt was in the best interest of our football program. I want to thank Kirk for his hard work and dedication to the university, Michigan Football, and our student-athletes. I wish him well in his future coaching endeavors.” Tight end coach Steve Casula will serve as Team 145’s offensive coordinator on an interim basis ahead of their bowl game. Moore, who finished his first season with a big win over the Ohio State Buckeyes and had his players continue to play for bowl eligibility during a lost season, said he will conduct a national search for a new offensive coordinator for the Wolverines. Campbell was hired as quarterbacks coach under Jim Harbaugh and helped the men in maize win the College Football Playoff National Championship during the 2023 season. Moore hired Campbell after he was promoted to replace Harbaugh, who promoted Campbell to offensive coordinator and play caller during the 2024 season. --> ‘It’s classless’: Michigan football star talks postgame scuffle in upset victory over Ohio State Read: ‘Shock the world’: Michigan football upsets Ohio State in unbelievable stunner More: Michigan football secures bowl eligibility in 44-point blowout over Northwestern on Senior DayOle Miss Player Takes Shot At Florida Before Saturday's ShowdownWhat ails the Democratic Party? Since Kamala Harris’ defeat, several Democrats and center-left commentators have pointed the finger at one culprit: “the groups.” Specifically, they claim, progressive interest and activist groups have both moved too far left and grown far too influential in the Democratic coalition, pushing the party to adopt stances out of step with the median voter on a range of different issues. This, they say, has backfired electorally and will ultimately hurt the people the groups claim to want to help. Yet this critique has been met with an impassioned backlash from progressives and leftists. Some argue the blame is misplaced and the supposed power of these progressive groups has been exaggerated. Others argue that inflation — a global phenomenon — was the main reason for Harris' defeat, so a groups-focused diagnosis misses the point. And yet others argue that progressive groups represent morally righteous causes that Democrats should not abandon — for instance, that moderation would amount to throwing marginalized groups “under the bus.” This debate is now in full swing. In some ways, it’s a continuation of the debate over social justice politics and “wokeness” that has been raging for years. But it extends well beyond that — on climate change, economic policy, immigration, voting reforms, reproductive rights, child care, and many others, the influence of such nonprofit groups on Democrats’ strategic decision-making has been immense in recent years. And yet there’s more to the story than just the groups. The bigger picture is that Democrats are reckoning with the apparent end of a years-long trend in which liberal college graduates’ opinions kept moving further left, a trend that influenced all actors in the party. The debate now is over whether and how Democrats should respond to electoral defeat — by moving to the center and trying to moderate their positions, sticking to their guns, or moving even further left. What does seem clear is that, for the time being at least, the leftward shift has stopped since Biden took office. A backlash to progressive activists’ preferred policies on several issues, including criminal justice and immigration, is in full swing. And, of course, Harris lost. How much blame, if any, “the groups” should get for that has become a matter of intense debate. Progressive group defenders point out that Harris tried to pivot to the center and that the Biden administration’s record on inflation and immigration were her two biggest vulnerabilities. The groups’ critics say Harris' group-influenced positions from the 2020 primary weighed her down, and Democrats ran into political trouble on inflation and immigration in part because of the groups’ bad advice. How the Democratic world — its groups, donors, activists, media outlets, staffers, and politicians — responds to all this is yet to be seen. There are past models. In the 1980s, after the landslide defeats of three successive Democratic presidential nominees, various reform factions tried to moderate the party, arguing that they’d gotten out of touch with the median voter and were too beholden to “special interests.” Bill Clinton became affiliated with these reformers, and won the presidency in 1992. In contrast, the model of Democrats between 2004 (when John Kerry lost) to 2008 (when Obama won big) may suggest a sweeping overhaul of the party’s positions isn’t necessary. After all, Harris came pretty close to winning. Perhaps Trump will govern poorly and Democrats will return to power having changed little. And perhaps the apparent end of the leftward opinion shift among liberal college graduates will be enough to effectively weaken the power of the groups. Another model, oddly enough, is Trump. Before his rise, the Republican Party was tethered to an unpopular “free market” economic agenda involving Medicare cuts and free trade pushed by donor-financed advocacy groups. In 2016, Trump distanced himself from that agenda, and in doing so revealed those groups had little actual power. Then, in 2024, it was the anti-abortion groups that looked to be a political millstone for Trump — so he distanced himself from them. For Democrats now, there are some nascent attempts to challenge the group-dominated status quo. Yet others are skeptical of how much Democrats will — and should – change. “Democrats declaring independence from liberal and progressive interest groups can’t and likely won’t happen,” the commentator Michael A. Cohen (not Trump’s former lawyer) wrote on Substack. “For better or worse, these groups are the modern Democratic Party. If Democrats hope to retake political power in Washington, they must ensure that these groups are enthusiastic, mobilized, and remain firmly ensconced in the Democrats’ corner.” Indeed, the politics of the war in Gaza may be a cautionary tale in this regard. Biden and Harris ignored progressive groups by remaining supportive of Israel — but as a result, Harris faced regular criticism from activists and negative coverage throughout the campaign. The groups might not be so effective at winning Democrats votes — but they still might be able to drive some away. Andrew Prokop is a senior politics correspondent at Vox.

And that’s inconvenient timing, considering Joe Biden’s team, fresh off a foreign trip, must shift quickly into legacy mode. When the president awkwardly, and to tepid applause this week in Angola, touted the domestic infrastructure law he helped craft, it seemed clear his legacy was on his mind. But the effectiveness of any coming sales pitch will likely be hamstrung by his pardon of son Hunter Biden , who was convicted on federal gun charges and had pleaded guilty on federal tax evasion charges. The move — which he’d previously said he wouldn’t make — has been slammed by Republican lawmakers and more than a few Democrats and its rationale lambasted by a federal judge. Karine Jean-Pierre, the president’s top spokesperson and chief image defender, told reporters, as she has so many times over the years, that they simply should not trust their lyin’ eyes — and ears. “One of the things that the president always believes is to be truthful to the American people. That is something that he always truly believes,” she said Monday, while en route to Africa aboard Air Force One, of Biden’s about-face Biden returned to Washington early Thursday morning from his multiday Angola visit, and there was no daily press briefing scheduled as travel-weary staffers, including Jean-Pierre, got some needed rest. She could return to the lectern in the White House briefing room as early as Friday. But the pardon drama has created a complication — for both the president and press secretary. After all, Biden on numerous occasions told interviewers and shouting White House press corps members that he would not pardon his troubled son. The former two-term vice president and longtime senator did so for over a year with very non-politician answers — meaning, he was both concise and clear. One example came on June 6 in France , when ABC News anchor David Muir asked Biden if he had ruled out a pardon for his son. “Yes,” Biden replied, without adding a qualifier that might be useful down the road if he reversed himself. The same goes for Jean-Pierre, who had also fielded many questions about a possible pardon. At one September 2023 briefing, this was her reply to the Hunter leniency question: “I’ve answered this question before. It was asked of me not too long ago, a couple weeks ago, and I was very clear, and I said, ‘No.’” Fast- forward to June of this year, and this was Jean-Pierre’s response to a similar query: “No. No. It’s a no. It will always be a no. Biden will not pardon his son Hunter.” Press secretaries are responsible for protecting the sitting president, spinning circumstances in his favor and deflecting blame elsewhere. Jean-Pierre’s answers were, at the time, rather refreshing because they were so clear and unequivocal. Then came Sunday’s sudden pardon. “The charges in his cases came about only after several of my political opponents in Congress instigated them to attack me and oppose my election. Then, a carefully negotiated plea deal, agreed to by the Department of Justice, unraveled in the courtroom — with a number of my political opponents in Congress taking credit for bringing political pressure on the process,” Biden said in an evening statement. “No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son – and that is wrong.” The Donald Trump-appointed federal judge overseeing Hunter Biden’s tax case in California strongly disagreed, stating that the president was guilty of too much revisionist history. “But two federal judges expressly rejected Mr. Biden’s arguments that the Government prosecuted Mr. Biden because of his familial relation to the President,” Judge Mark C. Scarsi, wrote in a Tuesday order responding to Hunter Biden’s notice to the court of the pardon. “And the President’s own Attorney General and Department of Justice personnel oversaw the investigation leading to the charges. In the President’s estimation, this legion of federal civil servants, the undersigned included, are unreasonable people,” Scarsi wrote, adding that “nowhere does the Constitution give the President the authority to rewrite history.” A former adviser to Barack Obama’s two successful presidential campaigns, Spencer Critchley, said he believed “Biden made the right decision, but gave the wrong explanation, and that this is likely to be how history will judge it.” “Under normal circumstances, I’d say he should have stuck with his commitment to stand clear of the justice system, however, the point this time is not to overturn past decisions, but to prevent the coming authoritarian abuses of the justice system, promised by Donald Trump and his appointees,” Critchley said in a statement Thursday. “Trump has been closely following the authoritarian playbook and dismantling the institutions of democracy. That includes turning justice into a weapon, which he has specifically promised to wheel against Hunter Biden, among many others. As the old dictator’s motto goes, ‘For my friends, anything. For my enemies, justice.'” Trying to ‘break Hunter’ But Biden’s statement went in a different direction, a parental one. It contained three sentences that the father in chief opted for months against sharing with the country, which might have explained his paternal plight. “There has been an effort to break Hunter — who has been five and a half years sober, even in the face of unrelenting attacks and selective prosecution,” Biden said. “In trying to break Hunter, they’ve tried to break me — and there’s no reason to believe it will stop here. Enough is enough.” California Gov. Gavin Newsom, one of Biden’s top allies, said this week that he “took the president at his word” that he would not pardon his son, adding: “So by definition, I’m disappointed and can’t support the decision.” The White House is also yet to clearly explain why Biden made such a dramatic about-face. Nor have his aides spoken to why the country should still believe his declaration in the pardon announcement that “for my entire career I have followed a simple principle: just tell the American people the truth.” The irony of the current situation is as undeniable as it is surreal. After all, it was the president, Jean-Pierre and the rest of Team Biden who spent four years telling the country about the dangers of Trump’s many false statements and lies. The tarnished credibility raises questions about Biden’s forecast of the American people’s thinking about his reversal: “They’ll be fair-minded.” Whether or not that proves true is up to history. The results of last month’s presidential election suggest an electorate that had some Biden fatigue. Whenever the president or Jean-Pierre next take questions from a jilted press corps, there likely will be pointed questions about whether the White House has been truly “fair-minded” with reporters and, more importantly, the people. Not just about Hunter Biden’s case, but on a myriad of issues. The stunning reversal has clearly allowed Republicans to pounce, another self-inflicted wound to wrap a presidency colored by them. Some GOP lawmakers contended on social media that Biden’s volte-face justified their claims of a dishonest and corrupt administration and family. Several GOP sources said Trump — who faced 91 criminal charges and whom media outlets and independent fact-checkers have cited for thousands of false statements since entering the political arena — has a chance to flip yet another script on Democrats. “President Trump’s bold leadership and direct communication style bring a unique energy to governance. ... This means clear direction and the chance to implement a vision that resonates with millions of Americans,” one former House leadership aide said in an email. “(Trump’s) ability to rally public support will be a key advantage.” ©2024 CQ-Roll Call, Inc., All Rights Reserved.

BERLIN (AP) — Harry Kane scored a hat trick including two penalties for Bayern Munich to beat Augsburg 3-0 in the Bundesliga on Friday. The win stretched Bayern’s lead to eight points ahead of the rest of the 11th round, and Kane took his goals tally to a league-leading 14. The England forward is the fastest player to reach 50 goals in the Bundesliga in what was his 43rd game. However, coach Vincent Kompany should be concerned by his team’s ongoing difficulty of scoring in matches it dominates. Bayern previously defeated St. Pauli and Benfica only 1-0. Kompany’s team had to wait until stoppage time before Kane sealed the result with his second penalty. Two minutes later, Kane scored with a header after controlling Leon Goretzka's cross with his first touch for a flattering scoreline. “We had to be patient,” Kane said. “And at halftime that’s what we said, to keep doing what we’re doing. We had a few chances in the first half and we just had to be a bit more clinical and obviously, thankfully, we got the penalty to kind of open the game up.” Mads Pedersen was penalized for handball following a VAR review and Kane duly broke the deadlock in the 63rd. Bayern continued as before with 80% possession, but had to wait for Keven Schlotterbeck to be penalized through VAR for a foul on Kane. Kane sealed the result in the third minute of stoppage time and there was still time for him to grab another. It’s Bayern’s seventh consecutive win without conceding a goal since it conceded four at Barcelona (4-1) on Oct. 23 in the Champions League. “You can see now that we have a solid defense and that's the basis, also in games like today's,” Bayern midfielder Joshua Kimmich said. “When it's a game of patience, then it's important for us to know that sometimes one goal will have to do. Like today we added two more before the finish, but in the end you only need to score one more than the opponent.” Bayern next hosts Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Tuesday, then Borussia Dortmund away in the Bundesliga next weekend, before defending champion Bayer Leverkusen visits in the third round of the German Cup.

Australian printmaker Ruth Faerber has died aged 102. She never stopped making artIt came as a surprise that President Biden unconditionally pardoned his son Hunter, a convicted felon, after repeatedly vowing that he would not. For the past few months, each time Biden or his press secretary was asked whether a pardon was in the cards, they both emphatically said no . So much for one of the president’s favorite lines , “I give you my word as a Biden.” Hunter, who was facing a potential sentence of years in prison for tax evasion and lying on a federal firearms application, is now free to pursue his career as a middling painter of overpriced art. I admit that when I first heard the pardon news, I thought, “Good for you, Joe! Why should you follow the rules when no one on Planet Trump does? Let the people who voted to return a sex-offending, defaming, defrauding felon to the White House get a tiny taste of their own medicine.” On second thought, however, it’s more complicated than that. How can any of us be outraged at the way Trump and those in his circle seem immune from the consequences of their malign actions if we applaud Biden’s pardon of his son for crimes he has either been convicted of or pleaded guilty to? How can we be outraged that Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner received $2 billion from the murderous Saudis if we think it’s perfectly fine for Hunter Biden to be paid millions of dollars for sitting on the board of Burisma, the Ukrainian energy company that was under investigation for corruption while his father was vice president and overseeing White House policy on Ukraine? The real outrage is the general lack of accountability for the illegal, unethical or immoral behavior of children born into wealth and privilege whose only “talents” are their ability to exploit their proximity to powerful people. Nepo babies gonna nepo baby. Hunter Biden was charged with lying on a gun purchase form, having claimed on penalty of perjury that he was not using drugs when, as he recounts in his memoir, he was a raging coke and meth addict. He was also charged with evading more than $1 million in taxes, which he has since paid, along with penalties and interest. Was he unfairly singled out? Maybe, but he still broke the law. As President Biden stated in announcing the pardon , “Without aggravating factors like use in a crime, multiple purchases, or buying a weapon as a straw purchaser, people are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form. Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given non-criminal resolutions.” All true, which is why the government originally offered Hunter a deal that would have allowed him to avoid prison. He was to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of failing to pay his 2017 and 2018 taxes on time, and to agree to a diversion program that would allow him to avoid prosecution on the charge that he lied when he bought a handgun in 2018. But a federal judge put the plea deal on hold last year, saying she did not want to “rubber stamp” an unorthodox and complex agreement that was reached without her input. Republicans piled on, filing an amicus brief complaining that the deal was too lenient and that the investigation was tainted by political interference from the Biden administration. At that point, with the plea deal in tatters, Atty. Gen. Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to the case. A month later, in September 2023, then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy opened his sham impeachment investigation of the president, claiming Biden lied about his knowledge of his son’s business affairs. The House’s eventual report basically found that Hunter used his daddy’s name to enrich himself. Yawn. Last summer, after a salacious trial that, as the New York Times put it , “made painfully public Mr. Biden’s crack addiction, reckless behavior and ruinous spending,” a federal jury found Hunter guilty of three felony counts related to the gun application. In September, Hunter Biden avoided tormenting his family with another trial by pleading guilty to nine federal tax charges. “There has been an effort to break Hunter — who has been five and a half years sober, even in the face of unrelenting attacks and selective prosecution,” President Biden’s statement said. “In trying to break Hunter, they’ve tried to break me — and there’s no reason to believe it will stop here. Enough is enough.” Hunter may have been singled out for prosecution, but Hunter did in fact screw up. And President Biden, who has often said that Americans in the Trump era are engaged in a “ battle to save the soul of the nation ,” has shown that he, too, will warp justice for his own ends. I thought he was better than that. Bluesky: @rabcarian.bsky.social . Threads: @rabcarianCeltics injury report: 3 rotation players listed for Bucks game

Marvell Technology, Inc. Reports Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025 Financial ResultsI’m A Celeb’s Maura Higgins ‘100% walking’ as her campmates spot clue she’ll quit within daysOver Week 49, the MABUX global bunker indices exhibited no clear trend, showing sideways changes. The 380 HSFO index increased by 4.76 USD: from 514.00 USD/MT last week to 518.76 USD/MT. The VLSFO index, on the contrary, decreased by 2.34 USD (592.42 USD/MT versus 594.76 USD/MT last week), maintaining its position below the $600 mark. The MGO index also dropped by 7.12 USD (from 762.81 USD/MT last week to 755.69 USD/MT). At the time of writing, there was no clear trend in the global bunker market, and indices continued fluctuating in opposing directions. MABUX Global Scrubber Spread (SS) – the price difference between 380 HSFO and VLSFO – declined by $7.10, dropping from $80.76 to $73.66, staying well below the SS breakeven mark of $100.00. The weekly average of the index also decreased by $2.73. Rotterdam registered the sharpest SS Spread decline: down $16.00 ($42.00 vs. $58.00 last week). The weekly average also fell by $4.67. In Singapore, the 380 HSFO/VLSFO price spread narrowed by $11.00: from $94.00 last week to $83.00, with a weekly average decline of $16.83. Overall, the SS Spread continues its downward trend, reducing the economic advantage of the 380 HSFO + Scrubber setup, favoring conventional VLSFO 0.5% sulphur fuel. We do not expect significant changes in the 380 HSFO/VLSFO price differential next week. More information is available in the Differentials section of . The price of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Asia could exceed $20 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) this winter as European supplies tighten, Goldman Sachs reports. Europe’s Title Transfer Facility (TTF) gas benchmark has reached its highest level in two years, driven by rising heating demand amid colder winter temperatures. In response, LNG traders are redirecting cargoes from Asia to Europe, which offers higher premiums. At least 11 shipments have been rerouted in recent weeks. As of December 02, European regional storage facilities were 84.65% full (down 3.65% from last week), and gas extraction continues. At the end of the 49th week, the European gas benchmark TTF continued to grow plus 1.341 euro/MWh (48.557 euro/MWh versus 47.216 euro/MWh last week). The price of LNG as a bunker fuel in the port of Sines (Portugal) dropped by 20 USD by the end of the week compared to the previous week, settling at 1008 USD/MT on December 02. Despite the decrease, it remained above the 1000 USD/MT threshold. At the same time, the price gap between LNG and conventional fuel also narrowed. On December 02, the difference was 270 USD in favor of MGO LS, down from 287 USD a week earlier. MGO LS was quoted at 738 USD/MT in the port of Sines on this date. For more details, refer to the LNG Bunkering section on . During Week 49, the MABUX Market Differential Index (MDI) (the ratio of market bunker prices (MBP Index) to the MABUX digital bunker benchmark (DBP Index)) recorded underpricing for all types of bunker fuel across major hubs: Rotterdam, Singapore, Fujairah and Houston:: • 380 HSFO segment: Underprice weekly averages fell by 4 points in Rotterdam, 6 in Singapore, 1 in Fujairah, and 7 in Houston. The MDI values in Rotterdam and Houston neared the 100% correlation mark between the market price and the MABUX digital benchmark. • VLSFO segment: Weekly underpricing rose by 1 point in Rotterdam, 9 in Singapore, and 4 in Fujairah, while falling by 6 points in Houston. Singapore and Fujairah reached near-complete MBP/DBP correlation. • MGO LS segment: Weekly average undervaluation widened by 1 point in Rotterdam but narrowed by 4 points in Singapore, 11 in Fujairah, and 12 in Houston. The MDI index in Rotterdam and Singapore remains at the $100.00 mark. At the end of the week, the balance of overvalued/undervalued ports did not change. Undervaluation remains the dominant trend, which is likely to persist into next week. More detailed information on the correlation between market prices and the MABUX digital benchmark is available in the Digital Bunker Prices section of . The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has reported 69 confirmed attacks on international shipping vessels transiting the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden since November 2023. This update underscores the heightened security risks in the maritime region. The report focuses on incidents that meet specific criteria outlined in a UN Security Council resolution. These include identification of the vessel by authoritative sources, confirmation of responsibility by the Houthis, and verification of the attack by the flag state or the vessel’s operator. Attacks that do not meet these criteria are excluded. For instance, in August 2024, three incidents were not included in the official report because the Houthis did not claim responsibility. An analysis by Brussels-based Transport & Environment (T&E) reveals that Europe’s container ships are emitting as much pollution on average as they did in 2018. The report emphasizes that there is likely no significant link between fuel prices and ship speeds, despite slower speeds being a key factor in improving operational efficiency and reducing emissions. T&E highlights that the most substantial reductions in emissions come from sailing at slower speeds. The organization urges the European Commission to implement energy efficiency measures, including speed limits for ships, to address this issue. Additionally, T&E advocates for the wider adoption of technologies such as wind propulsion and the application of a Carbon Intensity Index (CII) to vessels docking at European ports to further curb emissions. The global bunker market remains devoid of definitive movers. Irregular fluctuations across indices are expected to persist next week.

It's getting harder to stay on the PGA Tour. Here's whyWashington visits New Jersey after shootout winBy Jamie McGeever (Reuters) – A look at the day ahead in Asian markets. India’s central bank interest rate decision grabs the spotlight in Asia on Friday, as investors digest yet another record high for the Nasdaq and adjust positions ahead of the weekend. The U.S. employment report for November later in the day is released after Asia closes, so investors across the continent may be inclined to square positions as best they can in preparation for Monday. The main event in Asia on Friday is in India. The Reserve Bank of India is overwhelmingly expected to hold its key repo rate at 6.50%, after a sharp rise in inflation past the RBI’s 6% tolerance ceiling in October prompted many economists to push back their forecasts for the first cut to early next year. With the rupee at record lows against the dollar, standing pat makes sense. But economists at Nomura, one of the five out of 67 houses in the Reuters poll predicting a rate cut, argue that weakening growth dynamics must be taken into account now. Although the rupee has never been weaker, benchmark bond yields are at their lowest in almost four years, Indian stocks are lagging many of their regional peers, and the economy is growing at its slowest pace in nearly two years. Maybe the RBI should start the easing cycle sooner rather than later? Investors go into the final trading session of the week against a relatively calm global backdrop, all things considered. Any market impact from the political ructions in South Korea and France appears to be fading and contained, and the dollar’s dip on Thursday will be welcomed too. The dollar fell 0.5% on Thursday. It’s probably too early to read anything too deeply into it, but that was its third down day in a row, a losing streak not seen since September. It will take more than that – perhaps a return to the September lows, around 5% below current levels – to really call into question the dollar’s resilience, but could fatigue be setting in? Fatigue is something the U.S. economy doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of yet. The Atlanta Fed on Thursday raised its GDPNow model estimate for Q4 growth to a remarkable 3.3%. As investors fret about growth in Europe, China and many other key economies around the world, America appears to be the exception that continues to prove the rule. This is a double-edged sword for Asia. On the one hand it’s clearly good news as booming U.S. markets should lift all others. But if it lifts the dollar and Treasury yields, then global financial conditions tighten and capital is sucked towards the US. Indeed, net selling of Asian equities by foreigners in November was the highest since June 2022. Here are key developments that could provide more direction to markets on Friday: – India rate decision – Japan household spending (October) – South Korea current account (October) (Reporting by Jamie McGeever; Editing by Deepa Babington) Disclaimer: This report is auto generated from the Reuters news service.
