De Beers Moves From Cartel to Private Diamond Leader
De Beers, long the dominant force in rough diamonds, will delist from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and be bought out by a consortium including Anglo American and the Oppenheimer family. The change aims to shed the old market custodian role, expand retail efforts, reduce its stockpile, and push a new Diamond Trading Company to curb conflict diamonds.

Government venture failed in rural investment program
The Agriculture Department’s Alternative Agricultural Research and Commercialization Corp spent about 40.3 million dollars to back 44 companies since 1993, yielding only 1.2 million in returns. Audits cite poor picks and misspent funds, Congress shut new spending, and many firms showed no significant gains. Senators Harkin and others fault the program but acknowledge hoped for winners.
