Amazon names 25-year veteran Kumar as new India head
Kumar, who was part of the team that launched Amazon India in 2013, will take over from Tiwary on Oct. 1 in addition to his current role of heading Amazon's consumer businesses in the Middle East, South Africa and Turkey. Amazon had previously said Tiwary had resigned to pursue an opportunity outside the company, without elaborating. The change in leadership comes as Amazon is fast expanding in India where it plans to invest $26 billion by 2030, but also faces a strict regulatory environment that forces it to run only a marketplace.

Analysis-Traders brace for least predictable Fed meeting in years
Traders in global financial markets are facing extraordinary uncertainty as they await the U.S. Federal Reserve's expected rate cut on Wednesday, setting up markets for a burst of volatility. Major brokerages expect the Fed to lower interest rates by 25 basis points at the end of its two-day monetary policy meeting, even as financial markets price in a good chance of policymakers starting the easing cycle with a 50-bps reduction. Fed funds futures, which reflect the market's expectations for the future of monetary policy, have rallied to push the chance of a 50-basis-point rate cut to 61%, against 30% a week ago.

Sri Lanka's plantation workers live on the margins. But politicians still want their votes
Whoever Sri Lanka's next president is, Muthuthevarkittan Manohari isn't expecting much to change in her daily struggle to feed the four children and elderly mother with whom she lives in a dilapidated room in a tea plantation. Both leading candidates in Saturday's presidential election are promising to give land to the country's hundreds of thousands of plantation workers, but Manohari says she's heard it all before. Sri Lanka's plantation workers are a long-marginalized group who frequently live in dire poverty, but they can swing elections by voting as a bloc.

With Fed's rate cut at hand, debate swirls over how big a move
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday almost certainly will lower interest rates for the first time in more than four years as the U.S. central bank starts to reverse the restrictive conditions it imposed to beat back inflation, but whether policymakers opt for a half-percentage-point cut or smaller move remains up in the air. Their choice on how they want to kick off a new easing cycle - less than two months before what is expected to be a close U.S. presidential election - likely hinges more on what signal they want to send as they pivot from the highest interest rates in a quarter of a century than about expectations for near-term macroeconomic impact, even as their worries about the job market grow. A half-percentage-point cut - now given more than a 60% probability in rate futures markets - would signal a commitment to sustaining the current economic expansion and the job growth that goes along with it, something Fed Chair Jerome Powell has said is the top priority now that inflation is approaching the central bank's 2% target.
