Suspicious Yellow Smoke in Sky Above New Albany Chemical Plant
Roads near the Blue Grass Chemical Specialties plant in Indiana have been shut down, with firefighters drafted in - despite there being no sign of a fire.
Reports have suggested the factory's reactor malfunctioned, releasing chemicals in the air.
Nothing to see here...

World's First Robot Lawyer Sued in 🇺🇸 for Not Having Law Degree
The DoNotPay AI app - a robolawyer designed by a Stanford student - could end up having to defend itself in court.
It was made to help those who want to represent themselves, but a Chicago-based firm has called it dangerous to think it is a legal professional.
It cites a case over a parking ticket when the robot forgot to send a subpoena which ended up in more fines.
More Futurama than the future of law, or the legal world in a panic?

India refutes reports on joining Western price cap on Russian oil
India has not adhered to the price cap on Russian oil imposed by the Group of Seven and other Western nations, Reuters reported, citing an Indian oil ministry source.
The source clarified that India has not signed any agreement with Western countries to impose a price cap on oil from Russia.
Earlier on March 12, Bloomberg, citing its sources, said that India would not breach the Western sanctions on Russia, including the price cap of $60 imposed on purchases of oil from Moscow. Indian authorities have asked banks and traders to comply with the sanctions, per the publication.

Blackrock Falls? American Risk Management Behemoth Has Over 160mn Shares in Crisis-Hit Credit Suisse

Credit Suisse Crash: Western Bond Market Under Threat after Swiss Bank Rescue
Credit Suisse was forced to write down to zero an eye-watering $17bn of its Additional Tier 1 bonds, while shareholders will receive payouts as part of the govt-brokered UBS takeover.
AT1 bonds were introduced after the 2008 financial crisis, to increase banks’ safety buffers, while tackling the “too big to fail” risk that they might need govt support in a crisis.
The move has triggered renewed pressure on the global banking system - usually, equity investments would be classed as secondary to AT1 bonds - with investors scrambling to assess whether the same could happen for their holdings of AT1 debt in other banks - a market worth more than $275bn.
