Port of Dover threatens legal action over Brexit lorry checks
Thousands of investors in Neil Woodford’s fund have been forced to accept a £230m repayment plan after the High Court backed the scheme. However, campaigners argue that the deal is not good enough as they believe investors deserve more compensation. The fund collapsed after a wave of redemptions forced the company to block people from withdrawing their money. Link Fund Solutions (LFS), administrators to the fund, agreed with UK regulators to pay compensation to around 250,000 of Woodford’s investors but denies any wrongdoing.

Dover’s Port Health Authority threatens legal action over Brexit lorry checks
Dover’s Port Health Authority is considering legal action against the UK Government over plans to move checks on potentially dangerous foods away from the port, creating a biosecurity risk. The authority is concerned about the large quantities of meat entering Britain which could be contaminated, risking illegal foods entering the market and the spread of diseases such as African swine fever and foot and mouth. The government plans to move spot checks on products of animal origin away from Dover to a site 20 miles inland at Sevington from April.

Treasury Rates Jump as Poor Auction Puts Focus on November Sales
Treasury yields surged after poor demand for a five-year note auction, deepening concerns about expected auction size increases. The $52 billion offering drew a yield of 4.899%, nearly 2 basis points higher than where it was trading moments before the bidding deadline, indicating that demand fell short of dealers’ expectations. Yields were already rising before the auction, reinforced by stronger-than-expected September new home sales data. Long-maturity yields led the way with the 30-year bond’s yield climbing more than 15 basis points to nearly 5.10%. Treasury yields have been propelled higher in recent weeks, not only by expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep its policy rate elevated for longer than previously anticipated, but also by growth in the supply of notes and bonds.

Barclays Market Value Sinks After UK Lending Margins Squeezed
Barclays Plc lost up to $2.7 billion in market value after it lowered its forecast for lending profitability, causing its shares to drop as much as 10%.

The update comes ahead of reports from rivals Lloyds Banking Group Plc and NatWest Group Plc.

Oil Extends Losses Below $85 as Israel Rethinks Ground Invasion
Oil prices have fallen below $85 amid signs that the crude market’s tightness has slackened and the Israel-Hamas war will remain contained for the time being. The lack of any immediate supply disruptions in the Middle East, which is the source of about a third of the world’s crude, has eroded some of the war-risk premium. Russian crude exports rose to a four-month high, despite the Kremlin’s pact with Saudi Arabia to keep barrels off the global market. The price of West Texas Intermediate is still about 2.4% higher than before the Oct. 7 attack amid the possibility of Washington ramping up compliance checks on sanctioned Iranian oil and Tehran disrupting key shipping routes.

Bonds Stymied as Inflation Data Fails to Break Fed-Hike Logjam
Expectations that August inflation data would resolve the question of another Federal Reserve interest-rate increase this year were not met as the readings were close enough to expectations to keep the market on tenterhooks. The core consumer price index, which excludes food and energy, rose 0.3% from July vs economists’ 0.2% median estimate. From a year ago it increased 4.3%, in line with estimates and the smallest advance in nearly two years. The inflation data has been viewed as the last piece of economic data with the potential to influence the outcome of next week’s Fed policy meeting.
