Tia Lee Graces the Cover of ELLE Malaysia: A Journey of Empowerment, Evolution, and Expression

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 July 2025 – Global fashion and music icon Tia Lee (Lee Yu Fen) takes center stage on the cover of ELLE Malaysia, where she reflects on her multifaceted journey as an artist, changemaker, and advocate for women’s empowerment. The feature comes on the heels of her massive success with “Goodbye Princess,” which has surpassed 174 million views on YouTube — a testament to her global resonance and emotional storytelling. “Goodbye Princess” – Her Personal Anthem Among her discography, “Goodbye Princess” holds a special place. “This song reflects my emotional journey — from someone who used to hesitate to express herself to someone who can now be more at ease and confident in being who she truly is.” Beyond music, the accompanying visuals and campaign became a cornerstone of her #EmpowerHer movement, which supports real-world empowerment for women by providing employment support and helping them rebuild their confidence. Empowerment Through Art and Action For Tia, music is a powerful vessel to communicate strength and self-discovery. “Right now, I want to express the sense of empowerment girls can find during their growth journey,” she said. Her #EmpowerHer initiative, born during the creative process of “Goodbye Princess,” channels proceeds and awareness toward tangible support for women facing societal pressures and stereotypes. “Small efforts, when multiplied over 365 days, can grow into something significant,” she said. “Empowerment begins when we help one another rise — especially during tough times.” A Style Icon with Substance Beyond music, Tia continues to shape global fashion discourse. Describing her style as “minimalism, comfort, and soft personality,” she values timelessness and quality, often opting for classic silhouettes in neutral tones. Her fashion inspiration? Rosie Huntington-Whiteley — a woman she admires for her strength, elegance, and purpose. Tia’s passion for fashion is on full display in her ELLE Malaysia cover story, where she dons looks from Louis Vuitton, FENDI, Brunello Cucinelli, LOEWE, Ferragamo, Shu Shu Tong, TODS and Versace. This latest cover adds to her impressive roster of features on Vogue, Marie Claire, Harper’s Bazaar, Rollercoaster, Flaunt Magazine, ICON, tmrw, and Grazia. Looking Forward: Healing, Self-Discovery, and Staying Grounded In today’s fast-paced world, Tia prioritizes healing and self-understanding through activities like painting, meditation, and flower arranging. “You have to be honest with yourself and know what you need in order to grow into the person you want to be,” she said. “Progress over perfection — that’s what I live by.” From creating art that touches hearts to advocating for societal change, Tia Lee continues to shape the cultural landscape—on her own terms, and always with a message of strength and sincerity.

Trade Crypto Without Purchasing It: Octa Broker About Crypto-CFDs

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 July 2025 – Crypto volatility poses both potentially spectacular possibilities and enormous risks. For example, by investing in crypto assets on the spot market, traders buy the crypto and, hence, risk their budget if the price drops and never returns to the initial position. Instruments like crypto CFDs (Contracts for Difference) provide more opportunities for flexible capital management and allow traders to expand their financial horizons. Octa Broker, a broker with globally recognised licenses, explains how one can trade crypto without actually buying the asset with the help of crypto CFDs. Understanding Crypto CFDs and Their Mechanism A crypto CFD is an agreement between a client and a broker where a client profits (or loses funds) based on the variation of price. This financial instrument allows investors to use price movements of cryptocurrencies to their benefit without holding the underlying asset. This gives them more flexibility, security, and convenience, compared to spot trading where asset purchase is a must. 7 Reasons to Trade Crypto CFDs Instead of Buying Crypto on the Spot Market 1. Trading in Any Market Direction In traditional crypto trading, profits are made only when prices rise. With CFDs, if the price is expected to increase, traders go long (buy). If they believe the price may decrease, they go short (sell). This two-way direction trading creates more strategic avenues than storing cryptocurrencies in a wallet with the expectation for prices to escalate. 2. No Need for Crypto Wallets or Exchange Accounts One of the biggest direct hazards of crypto ownership is security. Hackers consistently target exchanges, and personal wallet management can lead to missing funds. Over $1.7 billion in digital assets has been pilfered from crypto websites using cyberattacks since 2024. Private keys, seed words, and exchange security risks are no more relevant with crypto CFDs since everything is safely handled by licensed brokers. 3. Simplified Access Without KYC Delays Crypto exchanges tend to have inconvenient identity verification (KYC) processes that could take a number of days or even weeks. CFD brokers, on the other hand, offer faster account opening so traders can get on the market quickly and enjoy price action without bureaucratic delays. 4. Diversified Portfolios Volatility is inherent to crypto markets, and trading solely in crypto can increase vulnerability. Investors can hedge their exposure by trading a number of other asset classes with crypto CFDs, such as major currency pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), stock indices (S&P 500, Nasdaq 100), and commodities (gold, oil, natural gas). This reduces dependence on a single asset class and provides greater options for traders to hedge losses in times of market decline. For example, if Bitcoin is falling due to regulatory uncertainty, a trader can hedge loss by buying gold CFDs, which typically perform better with financial uncertainty. 5. Advanced Trading Tools for Enhanced Risk Management One of the best features of CFD trading is the built-in risk management options that enable traders to protect their capital. Unlike crypto spot trading, where prices can destroy whole portfolios overnight, CFDs offer: Stop-loss and take-profit orders to automatically close trades at pre-set levels. Negative balance protection, ensuring traders never lose more than their deposit. Advanced charting and technical indicators to identify trading opportunities. With these features, traders have greater control over their strategies, making crypto CFDs a more precise tool for managing risk compared to traditional crypto exchanges. 6. Enhanced Security Crypto exchanges have a long history of security breaches, regulatory shutdowns, and liquidity issues. With CFDs, traders avoid risks like: Exchange collapses (e.g., the high-profile FTX bankruptcy in 2022). Withdrawal freezes due to liquidity shortages. Unexpected delistings of assets, leaving traders unable to exit positions. Unlike exchanges, where withdrawals can take days or even weeks, regulated brokers offer transparent deposit and withdrawal processes. Funds are typically withdrawn using the same method they were deposited with, ensuring fast, secure, and predictable transactions. 7. Lower Entry Barriers & Greater Trading Flexibility Not all traders have the funds to buy whole units of Bitcoin or Ethereum. With CFDs, though, traders access these instruments with fractional deposits, leveraging their market exposure. Additionally, CFDs allow quick exits and re-entries, which is far more versatile than actually buying crypto, where price execution and liquidity delays can result in unnecessary losses. Cryptocurrency trading has developed more diverse, secure, and trustworthy substitutes to simple buying and holding cryptocurrencies. Crypto CFDs present traders with a choice to make a profit from price differences without security risks, slow payments, or considerable capital outlay associated with spot trading on crypto exchanges. By offering greater risk management, diversification, and trading flexibility, crypto CFDs have become an effective tool for traders today in the volatile world of digital assets. ___ Disclaimer: This press release does not contain or constitute investment advice or recommendations and does not consider your investment objectives, financial situation, or needs.

Intrepid Metals Secures Additional Mineral Rights Adjacent to Rio Tinto at Corral Copper

Vancouver, British Columbia – Newsfile Corp. – July 2, 2025 – Intrepid Metals Corp. (TSXV: INTR) (OTCQB: IMTCF) (“Intrepid” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the strategic expansion of its Corral Copper Property (“Corral” or the “Property”) in Cochise County, Arizona through the acquisition of an additional four state leases from the Arizona State Land Department (“ASLD”) and another patented mining claim (the Emmet Claim) from Silver Nickle Mining Company. These new claims, located on the eastern border of Intrepid’s existing land package (see Figure 1 below), significantly enhance the Company’s regional footprint. Notably, several of the newly acquired state leases bridge the southern gap between Intrepid’s holdings and recently acquired claims by Rio Tinto. The property acquisition by Rio Tinto followed Intrepid’s successful 2024 drill program, which highlighted the Property’s potential and drew significant regional interest. Please refer to Intrepid News Release dated January 15, 2025 for further details. The new claims increase Corral’s total land package by approximately 2,195 acres (888 hectares), bringing the Company’s consolidated holdings to 11,715 acres (4,741 hectares). This positions Intrepid to further capitalize on the district’s exploration upside and reinforces its presence in one of Arizona’s most prospective copper belts. “The expansion of our land position at Corral reflects our continued confidence in the district’s potential and our commitment to building a meaningful copper asset in a tier-one jurisdiction,” stated Ken Engquist, Chief Executive Officer of Intrepid. “By securing these strategically located state leases, we’ve strengthened our competitive position alongside a major industry player and set the stage for further value creation through exploration.” About Corral Copper The Corral Copper Property, located near historical mining areas, is an advanced exploration and development opportunity in Cochise County, Arizona. Corral is located 15 miles east of the famous mining town of Tombstone and 22 miles north of the historic Bisbee mining camp which has produced more than 8 billion pounds of copper1. Production from the Bisbee mining camp, or within the district as disclosed in the next paragraph, is not necessarily indicative of the mineral potential at Corral. The district has a mining history dating back to the late 1800s, with several small mines extracting copper from the area in the early 1900s, producing several thousand tons. Between 1950 and 2008, various companies explored parts of the district, but the effort was uncoordinated, non-synergistic and focused on discrete land positions and commodities due to the fragmented ownership. There is over 50,000m of historical drilling at Corral mainly centered on the Ringo, Earp and Holliday Zones and although this core has been destroyed, Intrepid has a historical digital drill hole archive database which the Company uses for the purposes of exploration targeting and drill hole planning. Intrepid, through ongoing exploration drilling and surface geological mapping, sampling and prospecting is increasing confidence in the validity of these data.

To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/6187/257374_7d1dfe61945dca16_001full.jpg The Corral Copper Property is comprised of the Excelsior Property, the CCCI Properties, the Sara Claim Group and the MAN Property. The Company has completed the acquisition of the Excelsior Property and Sara Claim Group through purchase and sale agreements. The Company has the right to acquire the corporate group that holds the CCCI Properties through an option agreement. The Company has the right to acquire the MAN Property through an option agreement. See the “Commitments” section of the Company’s most recently filed Management Discussion and Analysis for further details. Intrepid is confident that by combining modern exploration techniques with historical data and with a clear focus on responsible development, the Corral Copper Property can quickly become an advanced exploration stage project and move towards development studies. About Intrepid Metals Corp. Intrepid Metals Corp. is a Canadian company focused on exploring for high-grade essential metals such as copper, silver, and zinc mineral projects in proximity to established mining jurisdictions in southeastern Arizona, USA. The Company has acquired or has agreements to acquire several drill ready projects, including the Corral Copper Project (a district scale advanced exploration and development opportunity with significant shallow historical drill results), the Tombstone South Project (within the historical Tombstone mining district with geological similarities to the Taylor Deposit, which was purchased for $1.3B in 20182, though mineralization at the Taylor Deposit is not necessarily indicative of the mineral potential at the Tombstone South Project) both of which are located in Cochise County, Arizona and the Mesa Well Project (located in the Laramide Copper Porphyry Belt in Arizona). Intrepid has assembled an exceptional team with considerable experience with exploration, developing, and permitting new projects within North America. Intrepid is traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) under the symbol “INTR” and on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol “IMTCF”. For more information, visit www.intrepidmetals.com.

Octa broker’s take on the upcoming NFP report

KUALA LUMPUR – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 July 2025 – This Thursday at 12:30 p.m. UTC, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release its highly anticipated Nonfarm Payroll (NFP) report. While typically issued on the first Friday of each month, this week’s release has been brought forward due to the upcoming U.S. Independence Day holiday. The NFP report is traditionally considered to be the most significant piece of macro statistics and tends to generate considerable market impact. The report offers critical insights into the health of the U.S. labour market, detailing job creation in the non-agricultural sector, unveiling the latest unemployment figures, and tracking changes in average hourly earnings. This data release has the potential to reshape U.S. interest rate expectations and steer investor sentiment, which is why the report is closely watched by market participants. The report will almost certainly affect the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar (USD) and trigger volatility across various financial instruments, including equity indices and commodities. Previous report The previous NFP report (published on 6 June) presented a somewhat mixed picture. While the headline figure, showing the number of jobs created, was above the market consensus, the preceding report was revised downward. At the same time, average hourly earnings grew faster than expected. Overall, the market interpreted the report as bullish for the DXY, which ended the day higher by 0.50%, while XAUUSD and EURUSD were down 1.22% and 0.45%, respectively. Market Expectations The NFP release arrives against a backdrop of heightened uncertainty and amplified volatility. Financial markets remain gripped by the persistent geopolitical instability, particularly in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, alongside ongoing trade tensions between the United States and global partners. Indeed, despite the NFP’s significance, the ongoing focus on global trade tariffs could partly limit its influence on market movements. Current market positioning strongly suggests a widespread expectation for a weak report that would ostensibly provide further justification for a Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate cut later this year. This sentiment is clearly reflected in both consensus surveys and recent price action in the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY). Thus, according to Reuters, analysts expect to see only a modest increase of approximately 110,000 jobs, the lowest projected figure since November 2024. Concurrently, the DXY is hovering near a two-year low, just shy of the 97.00 mark. The primary reason for the greenback’s recent weakness has been the prevailing dovish monetary policy expectations. In fact, the latest interest rate swaps market data implies almost a 75% chance of a 25-basis point (bps) rate cut by the Fed in September. Looking further ahead, the market currently prices in around 30% probability of a full percentage point reduction in the Fed’s benchmark rate by July of next year. Potential Outcomes Kar Yong Ang, a financial market analyst at Octa broker, offers a perceptive outlook: ‘Several factors, such as a weak dollar, dovish monetary policy expectations, and a rather pessimistic consensus for tomorrow’s labour market report suggest that higher-than-expected NFP figures will likely have a disproportionately stronger impact on gold [XAUUSD] and EURUSD vs lower-than-expected figures. In other words, a bullish NFP report’s upward pressure on the U.S. dollar will likely outweigh the bearish impact of a weaker-than-expected release’. On balance, in case the NFP report reveals stronger-than-expected results—indicating a larger increase in payrolls and/or higher growth in average hourly earnings—the greenback could experience a substantial rebound, leading to sharp downside corrections for XAUUSD and EURUSD. Conversely, should the NFP report come out weaker than expected, gold and the euro may receive only a minor boost. ‘I would treat any correction in gold as a buying opportunity’, says Kar Yong Ang. ‘XAUUSD remains in a structural uptrend due to strong fundamental reasons, so it is recommended to look for buying opportunities. Consider placing pending buy-limit orders on XAUUSD, particularly near the $3,280 level, in the event of a bearish reaction to the U.S. NFP report. Should a bullish reaction unfold, consider placing pending buy-stop orders on XAUUSD, specifically near $3,360’. ___ Disclaimer: This press release does not contain or constitute investment advice or recommendations and does not consider your investment objectives, financial situation, or needs.

Hong Kong banks showed moderate balance sheet growth amid global uncertainty in 2024, KPMG report finds

Disciplined cost management, risk vigilance, and digital innovation underpin sector resilience HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 July 2025 – Hong Kong’s banking sector demonstrated steady growth and operational resilience in 2024, despite ongoing global economic headwinds. This is according to the newly launched KPMG Hong Kong Banking Report, which provides an in-depth analysis of the city’s banking performance in 2024 and explores the major trends shaping its future, ranging from geopolitical and credit risk to digital asset innovation and AI transformation. The report reveals that the total assets of all surveyed licensed banks in Hong Kong rose by 4.5% to HK$24 trillion in 2024. Operating profit before impairment charges increased 7.8% to HK$318 billion, as banks continued to prioritise cost discipline and operational efficiency in the face of subdued loan demand and stable, but slightly compressed, net interest margins. Paul McSheaffrey, Senior Banking Partner, Hong Kong SAR, KPMG China, commented: “Despite the challenging macroeconomic environment and the impact of US-China trade tensions, Hong Kong’s banks have remained resilient. The sector’s long-standing focus on prudent risk management, capital discipline, and ongoing investment in digital transformation has helped it adapt to volatility and maintain international competitiveness.” While total loans and advances reduced by 2.3% in 2024, total customer deposits increased by 4.1%. Asset quality came under pressure, with the sector’s impaired loan ratio rising from 1.65% to 2.15%, reflecting the ongoing challenges in commercial real estate and the broader property sector. However, most banks have continued to exercise proactive risk management, including portfolio diversification and the adoption of digital tools to strengthen early risk detection. In line with KPMG’s prediction in its 2024 Hong Kong Banking Report, the banking sector continued to navigate a challenging environment shaped by US monetary policy uncertainty, geopolitical tensions and economic strains in the Chinese Mainland. Terence Fong, Head of Chinese Banks, Hong Kong SAR, KPMG China, says, “While Hong Kong’s economy showed resilience in 2024, recent developments highlight the importance of continued vigilance. The escalation of reciprocal tariffs between the US and China since April 2025 has heightened downside risks for Hong Kong’s trade-oriented economy and clouded the economic outlook. Continued vigilance will be crucial as banks navigate ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and macroeconomic challenges. Prudent capital management, agile pricing, and a renewed focus on emerging opportunities in Asia will be key to supporting sustainable growth.” The report also highlights the sector’s progress in digital innovation. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has been at the forefront of applications of blockchain technology for banks, with Project Ensemble serving as a landmark initiative exploring the use of wholesale CBDC (wCBDC) to facilitate the settlement of tokenised assets. On the retail side, the e-HKD initiative is progressing into its second phase, with the HKMA testing real-world applications of a retail CBDC. The HKMA has also finalised a regulatory framework for stablecoins which will provide better protection for the general public and investors. Banks in Hong Kong are also accelerating the adoption of artificial intelligence, particularly agentic AI, to enhance efficiency, risk management, and compliance. Angel Mok, Partner, Financial Services Technology Consulting, Hong Kong SAR, KPMG China, says, “Agentic AI solutions have evolved faster than expected. While banks in Hong Kong remain cautious about potential risks, they are generally enthusiastic about Agentic AI and are adopting it at an increasing pace. Banks that take a strategic, data-driven approach to implementation will be well-positioned to lead in an increasingly competitive landscape.” Jia Ning Song, Head of Banking and Capital Markets, Hong Kong SAR, KPMG China, says, “AI is already delivering tangible value for Hong Kong banks with quantifiable benefits. However, it is imperative that banks adequately address concerns around governance, risk, and trust. Building trusted AI systems is now essential for maintaining public confidence and ensuring the long-term sustainability of Hong Kong’s banking system. Institutions further along in their digital journeys may be better positioned, while others may need to address foundational gaps first before scaling their AI initiatives.” Hashtag: #KPMG The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
