    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is requesting public comments on its Rule 17g-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as part of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This rule involves reporting requirements for credit rating agencies, specifically those registered as Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (NRSROs). The SEC aims to evaluate if the information collected is necessary, assess the burden on respondents, and seek ways to improve the quality and reduce the effort required. Comments are to be submitted within 60 days of this notice, and they can be sent via mail or email as specified.

    Simple Explanation

    The SEC wants to hear people's thoughts on a rule about how some companies report their information, like their scores, to help others know if they can be trusted. They want to see if the rule is helpful and if it can be made easier to follow.

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is proposing to place the substance 4-chloromethcathinone (4-CMC) in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. This move aims to impose strict regulations similar to other highly controlled drugs, as 4-CMC is known to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use in the U.S. The decision also helps the United States comply with international agreements on psychotropic substances. Public comments on this proposal are accepted until January 29, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The DEA wants to treat a drug called 4-CMC like other dangerous drugs because it's risky and doesn't have a medical purpose. They also want to follow international rules about such drugs.

    Simple Explanation

    The Nasdaq Stock Market now says that companies must pay any money they owe it before they can ask to save their spot on the stock market, and if they pay to ask this, they won't get that money back.
