Slovak Prime Minister Igor Matovic apologised on Thursday after jokingly suggesting that Russia take a part of western Ukraine as payment for delivering doses of its Sputnik V vaccine to Slovakia. Matovic bypassed his cabinet partners to order the Russian vaccine even though it has not yet been approved for use in the European Union, of which Slovakia is a member. Asked in a radio interview what he had promised Russia in exchange for the vaccine, Matovic jokingly said he had offered "Transcarpathian Ukraine", referring to the western Ukrainian region bordering Slovakia.

(Bloomberg) -- Stocks rose as traders awaited clarity from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on how the central bank is perceiving the recent spike in Treasury yields.Energy shares led gains in the S&P 500 as crude surged after OPEC+’s decision to keep output unchanged. The Nasdaq Composite briefly wiped out its 2021 advance, while The Dow Jones Industrial Average outperformed. Bonds were reasonably steady after benchmark 10-year yields approached 1.5%. Mortgages rose above 3% for the first time in seven months -- raising concerns that higher borrowing costs will derail the pandemic housing rally.Powell is expected to use his appearance at a Wall Street Journal event Thursday to reaffirm his looser-for-longer stance for monetary policy and to make clear he’d like to avoid a repeat of last week’s bond-market chaos. In a congressional testimony last month, the Fed chief downplayed concerns that rising yields would hurt the economy, instead declaring at one point that they were a “statement of confidence” in the outlook. The 10-year Treasury rate briefly spiked to 1.6% on the next day.“The Fed Chair will do his best to quell talks of QE tapering during his much-anticipated speech about the U.S. economy,” said Fawad Razaqzada, an analyst at ThinkMarkets, referring to quantitative easing. “However, Powell can’t be too dovish either as he will also need to address worries about inflation. So, he will have a tough job convincing the markets that Fed’s policy is on the right path. Stocks may drop further if he’s unable to do so.”Some key events to watch this week:The February U.S. employment report on Friday will provide an update on the speed and direction of the nation’s labor market recovery.These are some of the main moves in markets:StocksThe S&P 500 rose 0.2% as of 11:30 a.m. New York time.The Stoxx Europe 600 Index decreased 0.4%.The MSCI Asia Pacific Index declined 2%.The MSCI Emerging Market Index dipped 2%.CurrenciesThe Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index was little changed.The euro decreased 0.2% to $1.204.The Japanese yen depreciated 0.5% to 107.59 per dollar.BondsThe yield on 10-year Treasuries fell two basis points to 1.46%.Germany’s 10-year yield decreased four basis points to -0.33%.Britain’s 10-year yield dipped seven basis points to 0.714%.CommoditiesWest Texas Intermediate crude gained 5.1% to $64.40 a barrel.Gold rose 0.5% to $1,720.18 an ounce.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

As such, non-alcoholic beer benefits the fluid balance of the consumer, and also supports rehydration process.
