    Artists from Universal Music Group are heading back to TikTok as new licensing deal reached

    Artists from Universal Music Group, which include Taylor Swift, Drake, Adele, Bad Bunny and Billie Eilish, will be returning to TikTok as the two parties have struck a new licensing agreement following an approximately three-month long dispute. The two sides said Thursday that they are “now working expeditiously to return music by artists represented by Universal Music Group and songwriters represented by Universal Music Publishing Group to TikTok in due course.” UMG said in January that it had not agreed to terms of a new deal with TikTok, and planned to stop licensing content from the artists it represents on the social media platform that is owned by ByteDance, as well as TikTok Music services.

    Sterling gives back some Fed-inspired gains, eyes on local elections

    The British pound slipped against the dollar, having risen the day before after the Federal Reserve's policy meeting, while investors were playing down the impact UK local elections on Thursday might have on the currency. The pound was last down 0.1% against the dollar at $1.2509, having risen 0.3% the day before after Fed Chair Jerome Powell ruled out hiking interest rates, which weighed on the U.S. dollar. "The Fed will be data dependent and if data were to show another boost to inflation then you can't completely rule out another rate hike," said Jane Foley, head of forex strategy at Rabobank.
