Analysis: Micro-cap stock surge shows investor risk taking, GameStop effect
Some of the biggest winners on U.S. stock exchanges so far this year have been their smallest members, partly fueled by the GameStop effect, but their gains could be particularly vulnerable if investors get skittish about equities. The micro-cap gauge ceded some gains during volatility earlier this week while other indexes held up better. With relatively few shares available to be traded, micro-cap stocks favored by individual investors could be hit hard in a downturn.

Scottish Tories to portray new Labour leader as soft on independence ahead of Holyrood elections
The Tories will attempt to portray Scottish Labour's new leader as soft on independence, whichever candidate wins the contest tomorrow. Douglas Ross, leader of the Scottish Conservatives, will today warn the Labour leadership candidates that pro-UK voters are not looking for “fair weather” unionists who might “change direction like a weather vane” after the May 6 election. Mr Ross, who has previously claimed that he would focus on non-constitutional issues when he took over as leader last year, will challenge both leadership hopefuls to rule out working with the SNP. Anas Sarwar and Monicca Lennon, both running for the leadership after Richard Leonard stepped down in January, have clashed on the issue of a second independence referendum. Ms Lennon has said she would accept a democratic mandate for a new vote. Mr Sarwar has taken a harder line, ruling one out for the term of the next parliament as the country rebuilds from Covid. However, senior Tories have claimed no new votes should be held for several decades. In a speech today, Mr Ross will claim that whoever wins the leadership, Labour will be “half-hearted on the constitution” because “either Monica Lennon will make the SNP’s arguments for them or Anas Sarwar will tell the SNP ‘not today but tomorrow is fine’ for your indyref2.”

How Tom Cruise pulled off 8 amazing stunts
Tom Cruise is perhaps most famous for doing almost all of his own stunts, which have intensified throughout his career. In the "Mission: Impossible" franchise, he climbed part of a 2,000-foot cliff in "Mission: Impossible 2" and then climbed 1,700 feet up the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, in "Ghost Protocol." In "Rogue Nation," Cruise did not one, but two dangerous stunts. First, he hung off the side of a plane that took him up 1,000 feet in the air. He then had to hold his breath underwater for about six minutes, a stunt that required military-style preparation. In "Fallout," he jumped 25,000 feet out of a plane and filmed a helicopter stunt that required him to get 2,000 hours of training and learn how to do a 360-degree corkscrew dive. Outside the "Mission" franchise, he filmed a scene on a real zero-gravity plane instead of a soundstage in "The Mummy" and learned how to do action in an 85-pound suit in "Edge of Tomorrow." He is soon set to return to one of his most iconic roles in "Top Gun: Maverick." “The Mummy” Is Now Available On Demand

Navalny lawyer Vadim Kobzev didn't immediately say what prison he was sent to. Russian news reports have previously indicated that Navalny, who has been held in a maximum-security jail in Moscow, would likely be sent to a facility in western Russia.
