Oct 9 (Reuters) – Sheffield Wednesday's financial crisis represents a "significant problem" for English football, according to the new chair of the Independent Football Regulator, who said that club owners deemed unsuitable could be forced to sell their teams as a last resort. The IFR was established to address growing concerns over governance and financial sustainability within English football. While the Premier League is regarded as the best in Europe, bolstered by substantial TV broadcasting revenues, the lower tiers of English football are struggling. Wednesday were charged by the English Football League (EFL) in June with multiple breaches of regulations after the second-tier club failed to pay players' wages on time. They sit second bottom in the Championship. The club have previously faced player registration embargoes and were docked six points during the 2020-21 season for breaching profit and sustainability rules. "Clearly Sheffield Wednesday has been a significant problem for EFL and a significant problem for football," IFR chair David Kogan told BBC Sport on Thursday. "Sheffield Wednesday is one of the great brands for English football and this week we have met Sheffield Wednesday supporters' groups. "We're now looking to get powers which will allow us to have Sheffield Wednesday — and other clubs — referred to us if they need to be investigated and acted upon." The IFR will have powers to operate a licensing scheme for the top-five levels, with licences subject to clubs meeting requirements regarding financial stability, owners' suitability, fan engagement and the protection of their heritage. "If your question is, 'would we intervene in the final instance?', the answer is once we gather the evidence and know what's going on, we will," Kogan said. "The last thing what we want to do is start getting involved with an individual club, an individual owner, without being able to work with that owner to try and resolve the issues that the club's facing and the owner's facing."

In a week marred by retirements due to heat and exhaustion the 29-year-old refused to join the list of casualties despite visibly struggling during the latter stages of the second set. Limping in the 12th game of the second set, the Russian was forced to take a medical time-out, with the ATP physio attending to him courtside. The tie-breaker decided the fate of the second set, which Tien claimed 7-1 after Medvedev had earlier won the opening set in a closely contested breaker. Despite the physical toll and spirited resistance from the 19-year-old Tien, Medvedev rallied to take the decider, sealing the match after nearly three hours on court. Speaking after the match, Medvedev acknowledged the challenge posed by both his opponent and his own physical condition, saying he was lucky to come through such a crazy match. The victory sets up a quarterfinal clash between Medvedev and Australia's Alex de Minaur, as the world number 18 continues his pursuit of the Shanghai title. (Production: Bhagya Ayyavoo)

TOKYO (Reuters) -The Bank of Japan should be cautious about raising interest rates further as Japan's gradual return to an inflationary mindset could be disrupted by any premature tightening, said Etsuro Honda, a close economic adviser to Sanae Takaichi, who is likely to become the country's next prime minister. "Japan is at a delicate stage right now, where the long-standing deflationary mindset is gradually giving way to a more positive inflationary outlook," Etsuro Honda, who advises Takaichi on economic policy, told Reuters in an interview. Pointing to a recent surge in Japanese stock markets driven by optimism over Takaichi's reflationary policies, Honda said: "I genuinely hope they don't raise rates now." "Of course, it's entirely up to the BOJ," he added. (Reporting by Makiko Yamazaki and Yoshifumi Takemoto; Editing by Hugh Lawson)

* European stocks lower, driven by banks * French bonds hold on to Wednesday's gains * JPMorgan CEO warns of market risks (Updates throughout after European market open) By Elizabeth Howcroft PARIS, Oct 9 (Reuters) – European stocks opened lower on Thursday, in a move driven by banking shares, while investors weighed up the risk of a market correction after AI-enthusiasm helped Asian stocks reach new highs overnight. Wall Street hit fresh record highs in the previous session, as investors bet on gains in technology stocks, despite a U.S. government shutdown leaving traders without some key economic data . The U.S. shutdown and political risk in Japan and France have made investors nervous this week, creating safe-haven demand which, along with a weaker dollar, has driven gold above $4,000 for the first time. STOXX DOWN 0.3% ON THE DAY The STOXX 600 was down 0.3% on the day at 0903 GMT and London's FTSE 100 was down 0.3%, hit by losses at HSBC and Lloyds Banking Group but partially offset by gains in mining and technology stocks. The MSCI World Equity Index was flat on the day . "It just feels like the mood is a little bit fragile," said Fiona Cincotta, senior market analyst at City Index. "It does feel that we’re lacking substance to any move that we’re seeing, because we’re not getting that data out of the U.S.” In a sign of rising caution among investors, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said there was a heightened risk of a significant correction in the U.S. stock market within the next six months to two years, citing factors including geopolitical tensions, government spending and remilitarization around the world. U.S. President Donald Trump announced late on Wednesday that Israel and Hamas had reached a ceasefire and hostage deal . French bonds held on to Wednesday's gains after President Emmanuel Macron said that he would name a new prime minister by Friday evening, which raised hopes that the country could avoid a snap election and agree a budget. The 10-year French government bond yield was at 3.5082% , while the benchmark German 10-year yield was 2.692% . The dollar index made small gains, up 0.1% on the day at 99.971, but still down around 8.9% on the year overall. The euro was in its fourth day of declines, down 0.1% at $1.1615. The Japanese yen hit an eight-month low of 153 per dollar overnight, but was last a touch stronger at 152.76 . An economist advising the policy circle of Japan's likely new premier Sanae Takaichi told Reuters that the yen's current weakness benefits the economy, and the hit to households from rising import costs can be offset by aggressive fiscal spending. Oil prices were steady, as traders waited to see if the ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas would hold. Gold was little changed, at $4,041.29. International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva on Wednesday forecast a slight slowdown in global growth in 2025 and 2026, warning investors not to get too comfortable, but said the world economy has proven more resilient than expected. China tightened its export controls of rare earth technology, expanding April's restrictions. (Reporting by Elizabeth Howcroft, editing by Ed Osmond)

By Giulio Piovaccari and Keith Weir MARANELLO, Italy (Reuters) -Ferrari showcased the technology behind its first electric car but said on Thursday that petrol and hybrid vehicles will remain at the heart of its lineup until 2030. The electric car will be called the Elettrica and is due to go on sale next year. In an event at its Maranello headquarters in northern Italy, Ferrari revealed the Elettrica's production-ready chassis: a car base, with battery pack and electric motors, though with no wheels or outer shell for the moment. The unveiling of the inner workings of Ferrari's maiden electric car marks a milestone for the auto industry that is grappling more widely with a transition from the internal combustion engine to the electric battery. But Ferrari also shifted to a less ambitious approach to electrification. It now aims for a 2030 lineup made up of 40% internal combustion engine (ICE) models, 40% hybrids and 20% fully-electric. This marks a change from its 2022 plan, which had targeted 40% EVs, 40% hybrids and 20% ICE models in 2030. FOUR NEW MODELS PLANNED EACH YEAR Ferrari said it would launch an average of four new models per year between 2026 and 2030, maintaining the steady rhythm that has helped it stimulate the interest of its wealthy clients and grow its customer base. "With the new Ferrari Elettrica, we once again affirm our will to progress by uniting the discipline of technology, the creativity of design and the craft of manufacturing," Ferrari Chairman John Elkann said. The Elettrica complements Ferrari's traditional petrol and newer hybrid models. All strategic EV components — including high-voltage battery packs, e-axles and inverters — are developed and produced in-house at Ferrari's new "e-building" facility in Maranello, the company said. Sources told Reuters earlier this year that Ferrari does not plan to launch a second EV before 2028, citing weak demand for high-performance electric luxury cars. NEW LIFESTYLE STORES SET TO OPEN Ferrari's active client base has grown by around 20% since 2022, reaching 90,000. To deepen engagement, it plans to open new "Tailor Made" centres in Tokyo and Los Angeles in 2027 to help customers to add personal touches to their vehicles. It reaffirmed its lifestyle strategy expansion, with flagship stores planned in London and New York in 2026, and a broader range of luxury goods and experiences for both owners and fans of the brand.
