Chevron's oil and gas reserves have fallen to the lowest point in at least a decade, highlighting the importance of the U.S. major's planned acquisition of oil producer Hess that has stalled due to a court battle with Exxon Mobil. If Chevron closes the Hess acquisition, it would gain a stake in the lucrative Guyana oilfields that are operated by Chevron's rival, Exxon.

Fed's Powell: Strong economy means no hurry to cut rates

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Federal Reserve is in no rush to cut its short-term interest rate again given an economy that is "strong overall," with low unemployment and inflation that remains above the Fed's 2% target, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in opening remarks prepared for delivery at a Senate Banking Committee hearing.

Analysis-Chilean voters fall back to conservative safe zone, propelling markets

After more than five years of political upheaval that threatened to polarize Chilean society, voters in Latin America's fifth-largest economy are shifting back to their traditional moderate conservatism, according to recent polls and political analysts. The shift has helped lift the Chilean stock market to record highs and comes ahead of a presidential election in November, in which centre-right candidate Evelyn Matthei is currently the front-runner. Analysts point to leftist President Gabriel Boric's moderate reform of the country's private pension system last month as a sign Chile is embracing compromise and able to pass business-friendly legislation, after several years in which a divided congress halted the president's agenda.
