Exclusive-Russian oil refining rises as US sanctions target crude exports - sources
Russian refineries are processing more crude oil in the hope of boosting fuel exports after new U.S. sanctions on Russian tankers and traders made exports of unprocessed crude more difficult, two industry sources said and data showed. Russia has been trying to adapt to Western sanctions imposed in response to the invasion of Ukraine since 2022 by buying new fleet, re-routing oil exports to Asia from Europe and finding new fuel customers in Africa and Latin America. The latest U.S. sanctions imposed on the Russian oil industry in January have made crude exports to key Asian customers in India and China more costly and complex.

Supreme Court leaves in place Mississippi’s voting bar for people convicted of some crimes
The Supreme Court on Monday left in place Mississippi’s Jim Crow-era practice of removing voting rights from people convicted of certain felonies, including nonviolent crimes such as forgery and timber theft. The justices, without comment, turned away an appeal from Mississippi residents who have completed their sentences, but who have been unable to regain their right to vote. The court's action let stand a ruling by the full 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that rejected the claim that permanent loss of voting rights amounted to cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Constitution.

Nasdaq drops 3% as China's AI push rattles Big Tech
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq hit over one-week lows on Monday, as the surging popularity of a low-cost Chinese artificial intelligence model knocked shares of chipmaker Nvidia and other companies benefiting from investments into the technology. Chinese startup DeepSeek has rolled out a free assistant it says uses cheaper chips and less data, seemingly challenging a widespread bet in financial markets that AI will drive demand along a supply chain from chipmakers to data centers. Nvidia, whose chips are the top choice for powering AI applications, dropped 11.7%, while a gauge of semiconductor stocks dropped 6.5%.

DeepSeek AI triggers sell-off: What it means for Big Tech, Mag 7
The US stock market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) is seeing a steep sell-off Monday morning, driven by the release of the Chinese artificial intelligence chatbot DeepSeek.
