ST. JOHN’S, Antigua and Barbuda, March 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Over-C Limited, the leading property management software platform, delivering live operational risk data and analytics using machine learning and IoT to predict and prevent future incidents, is pleased to announce it has secured £1 Million in an equity investment from Ayre Ventures. Over-C Founder and CEO Michael Elliott said: “we’re delighted to welcome Ayre Ventures as a key investor and shareholder and to have Ayre Ventures Managing Director Paul Rajchgod join our board”.
Over-C is leading the way in the risk management arena with the adoption of blockchain technology, which simultaneously answers the challenges of scalability, single points of failure, time stamping, privacy, trust, and reliability. This will enable peer-to-peer contractual behaviour without any third party required to certify operational and IoT transactions, and doing so on industrial and enterprise scales is only possible on BSV Blockchain.
Mr. Elliott added “Our usage of BSV Blockchain will materially benefit the insurance industry; insurers will be able to automate the entire ‘First Notification of Loss’ interaction directly from an incident location via a two-way, automated conversation secured by blockchain. As well, Over-C creates a trusted, tamper-proof, industry-wide record to defend potential claims, whilst reducing fraud by eliminating data silos and paper processes.”
Ayre Ventures founder Calvin Ayre said: “From day one of my blockchain journey, my focus has been on utility and Bitcoin SV is the only protocol that puts utility first. Over-C epitomizes the type of utility-focused company that will benefit from exploring BSV’s unmatched capacity for immutable data storage. I’m thrilled to support Michael’s team and I look forward to them showing the world that BSV can serve as a reliable source of both trust and truth.”

There are few things investors enjoy more than receiving a dividend payment each quarter. However, a popular ETF from JPMorgan, the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSEARCA:JEPI), takes this approach and does it one better by paying investors a dividend on a monthly basis. Not only that, but JEPI’s dividend yield is a massive 11.8% on a trailing basis, which is more than seven times the average yield for the S&P 500 of 1.65% and nearly three times the yield that investors can get from 10-yea
In 2022, Cathie Wood and Ken Griffin’s paths couldn’t have diverged any more sharply. While Wood’s bet on innovative growth-flavored stocks proved disastrous with her flagship ARKK fund posting huge losses, Griffin’s Citadel hedge fund notched profits of $16 billion – the most Wall Street had ever seen. But while the two famous investors’ fortunes differed dramatically last year, the pair have some things in common; both try to beat the market using singular techniques whether it’s Wood’s pencha
The purchases, which occurred on Friday, Monday and Tuesday (today), were made at prices ranging from about $59 to $62 a share and are Berkshire’s first purchases since the end of the third quarter.

Berkshire Hathaway (BRK/A, BRK/B) now holds a roughly 22.1% stake in Occidental Petroleum (OXY), whose shares were down 1.4% Tuesday to $60.85.
Inflation remains high, and that was on the mind of Jerome Powell as the Federal Reserve chair gave testimony to the Senate Banking committee today. Powell made it clear that the central bank is likely to lift interest rates higher than previously anticipated. Currently, the Fed’s key funds rate is set in the range of 4.5% to 4.75%. “Although inflation has been moderating in recent months, the process of getting inflation back to 2% has a long way to go, and is likely to be bumpy… The latest eco
While 2023 is still relatively young, the markets have already proved to be extremely difficult to navigate this year. Bullish in January, bearish in February and back to the bull again so far in March, the swings make it impossible to know what’s up next. One simple solution to help make sense of the confusion is to just take a leaf out of the “legendary investor” playbook. And hardly any come more legendary than George Soros. Some quarters might not be too keen on the “man who broke the bank o

The company late on Friday said that effective immediately it made a "risk-based decision" to discontinue the Silvergate Exchange Network, which enabled round-the-clock transfers between investors and crypto exchanges, unlike traditional bank wires, which can often take days to settle. U.S. regulators have been sent to the headquarters of Silvergate as the company looks for a way to stay in business, the report said. One possible option involves lining up crypto-industry investors to help Silvergate shore up its liquidity, the report said.
“After too many years of paying for oversight, I finally woke up to the reality that it cannot be in the investor’s best interest as long as the manager is rewarded for assets under management.” Well, firstly the AUM model — which stands for assets under management and is often a flat 1% of one’s assets — isn’t without controversy.

Rigel (RIGL) delivered earnings and revenue surprises of 114.29% and 36.56%, respectively, for the quarter ended December 2022. Do the numbers hold clues to what lies ahead for the stock?
The Federal Reserve will likely need to raise interest rates more than expected in response to recent strong data and is prepared to move in larger steps if the "totality" of incoming information suggests tougher measures are needed to control inflation, Fed Chair Jerome Powell told U.S. lawmakers on Tuesday. "The latest economic data have come in stronger than expected, which suggests that the ultimate level of interest rates is likely to be higher than previously anticipated," Powell said in prepared remarks for a hearing before the Senate Banking Committee. U.S. stocks sold off, Treasury yields rose and the dollar extended a gain after Powell's comments, his first since inflation unexpectedly jumped in January and the U.S. government reported an unusually large increase in payroll jobs for that month.
