Business news today mixed market momentum with reputational and operational shocks. In India, foreign portfolio investors snapped a four-month selling streak in July, returning as net buyers as steadier domestic conditions, improving earnings hopes and a softer global backdrop lifted sentiment. By contrast, Capital One’s court filing injected fresh scrutiny into the Trump Organization, with the bank saying it shut more than 300 accounts in 2021 after an anti-money-laundering review rather than for political reasons, a claim Trump-linked entities strongly dispute. And in Indonesia, attention turned to a deadly ferry fire off Madura island that left at least five people dead and dozens missing, underscoring the human and economic toll of transport safety failures in a vital maritime region. Together, the day’s developments show how confidence—whether in markets, institutions or infrastructure—can shift quickly and dramatically.
