SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — There’s another option for eminent domain as it relates to the proposed carbon dioxide (CO2) pipeline in South Dakota. The South Dakota Farm Bureau (SDFB) and the South Dakota Corn Growers Association (SDCGA) said they support a legislative proposal that would require CO2 pipeline companies secure voluntary easements for at least 67% of the pipeline before invoking eminent domain.

Risk-averse investors with a long-term vision may prefer a reliable FTSE 250 investment trust with stable growth potential. There’s no denying Rolls’ shares have been on an absolute tear. They’re up almost 500% in the past two years, far outperforming any other stock on the FTSE 100. But growth like that is seldom rational or sustainable. As it continues to skyrocket, the chance of a correction becomes more and more likely. Upcoming results Next…
The US dollar (DX=F, DX-Y.NYB) is on track to secure its best week since mid-November as a looming tariff deadline pushes the greenback currency to new heights.

Image source: Getty Images The Standard Chartered (LSE: STAN) share price spiked up 5% in early trading Friday morning (21 February), as 2024 full-year results beat expectations.

As financial markets are being rattled by the precarious impacts of the Trump administration’s tariffs and other fiscal policies, mortgage rates continue to ride out the storm, holding close to 7%.

Yet none of these appear to be…
