Updating The List for Adventures in the Forgotten Realms

Posted in Feature on July 6, 2021

By Wizards of the Coast

Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms arrives in local game stores worldwide on July 23, and this first-time crossover of Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons brings with it exciting new cards and Booster Fun variants for players.

It also brings with it another update to The List! This is a list of interesting cards selected from across Magic history, changing from release to release as it’s adjusted for the themes of the set.

Found only in Set Boosters, a card from The List appears 25% of the time in the final card slot. All rarities are represented, from common all the way up to mythic rare: commons will appear more often than uncommons, uncommons more than rares, and rares more often than mythic rares.

Cards are legal in whatever formats they are currently legal in; being on The List does not make a card legal in Standard.

Sentiment supports uneasy market gains ahead of Jackson Hole

Sentiment lifted by US budget progress
It is undoubtedly a statement of the blinding obvious that sentiment is driving markets currently, as it always does. That said, these days it is harder and harder to find an underlying cause for swings in sentiment, which appears most days to have a life of its own. Today though, one development may be helping, and that is the US House of Representatives adopting a $3.5tr budget resolution, which should also aid the passage of the $550bn infrastructure bill and spare us from Filibusters in the Senate. That’s good news in terms of the outlook for US growth. And this probably helped US Treasury bond yields to stage a decent rally yesterday by recent standards, with the 10Y yield rising a little over 4bp to 1.294%.

What happens today is a little harder to call, with sentiment positive but vulnerable to shifts ahead of the Jackson Hole conference which features Fed Chair Powell on Friday. Part of the sentiment improvement may lie with recent thoughts that this weekend’s conference will not deliver any further insight into the timing of any Fed taper. Or possibly that it may temper some recent suggestions that this taper will be more imminent than first thought likely. I suspect we will still be no wiser in terms of the Fed’s intentions by Monday morning, and that may be enough for the optimists to keep sentiment positive.

Positive sentiment is also presumably behind a slightly weaker USD over the last couple of days. EURUSD has risen to 1.1756 from about 1.1740 this time yesterday, and we’ve also seen some reasonably broad (if minor) gains in Asian FX. The THB is the standout here on suggestions that it may relax its movement restrictions and learn to live with the virus. But with low levels of vaccination, and still high cases and death rates (Thailand ranks 12th globally today for daily Covid-19 deaths on Worldometer’s figures) this seems a contentious decision. In any case, we doubt even vaccinated tourists will be rushing to the beaches of Thailand anytime soon just because they open their borders. Potential tourists also have to consider how they will be greeted on their return home. 2 weeks of mandatory quarantine in a hotel can really spoil that holiday feeling. Prakash Sakpal states that he is not “rushing to revise our end-year USD/THB forecast of 35.00 just yet given that the underlying economic fundamentals remain extremely unfriendly for this currency (spot 32.89)”

The KRW was also at the top end of the pack in terms of Asian FX, ahead of a very tightly considered rate decision by the Bank of Korea tomorrow. 10 of 19 economists surveyed by Bloomberg (including ourselves) are suggesting that the BoK will hold fire tomorrow, (perhaps taking their lead from the Reserve Bank of New Zealand) against the tricky backdrop of the rising Delta variant across the region). South Korea’s current daily Covid-19 case tally is more than 1,500. That is high for Korea, but it is down from the 2000+ it was recording a few weeks ago. You could argue that this is enough to allow for a rate hike tomorrow, especially given yesterday’s release of some further rapid increases in household debt. But it is a very close call. A BoK hike is certainly coming, so if not now, then within a month or two.

Korea: Daily Covid cases and cumulative total

Quiet day ahead for Macro data

There isn’t much on the economic calendar in either the G-7 or Asia-Pacific to get your teeth into today. Some import-dominated trade data has pushed the July NZ trade surplus into deficit by more than expected this morning (-NZD402m), which is weighing on the NZD. We have seen quite a few trade figures across the region illustrating that pattern of more rapid gains in imports than exports, which may reflect the impact of re-opening. That’s encouraging on some levels, but it may put some of the more fragile currencies under strain as they emerge from the latest wave.

Prakash Sakpal gives us his thoughts on Malaysian inflation for July also due today. “After hitting a four-year high of 4.7% YoY in April this year, Malaysia’s inflation slowed to 3.4% in June. We expect today’s data to show a further drop to 2.9% YoY, in line with the market consensus. This deceleration stems from softer domestic demand amidst the worst Covid-19 outbreak currently, while base effects also fade. By product types, housing and transport have been the main inflation drivers here. We see inflation settling down between 2-3% in the second half of 2021, putting the full-year average near the low end of Bank Negara Malaysia’s 2.5-4.0% forecast range for the year. Still, elevated inflation doesn’t have any bearing on the BNM policy, which we expect to remain in a holding pattern well into 2022”.

More than 150 A350 freighter sales a ‘good return’ for Airbus

25 / 08 / 2021

By Dominic Perry, FlightGlobal

Airbus will need to sell at least 150 examples of its A350 freighter for the programme to be considered a success, according to a leading analyst.

Jonathan McDonald, head analyst at consultancy IBA Group, said that sales of 150-200 units would mark a good return for the proposed freighter derivative.

Airbus last month announced that it had obtained board approval to launch the A350F, which will be substantially based on the -1000 variant and have a payload of around 90 tonnes.

McDonald said the airframer is “clearly targeting the heavy widebody sector” which is “pretty Boeing dominated” at present, thanks to its 777F and 747-8F programmes.

Launch of the A350F is effectively an admission by Airbus that it is “a little bit under-represented in the heavy freighter market”, he added.

A payload of 90t would put it “slap-dab in MD-11F territory”, says McDonald. There are 104 examples of the legacy McDonnell Douglas type still in service, with a further six examples parked, according to IBA InsightIQ data; the majority are operated by FedEx and UPS.

Securing orders from the two logistics giants will be key for the new programme, he said.

However, Airbus will need to do more than replace MD-11Fs to hit the 150-sales mark and could also target operators of ageing 747-400 freighters.

IBA InsightIQ data shows there are 194 examples, both factory built and conversions, still in operation, plus another 13 parked aircraft.

While the maximum payload of the -400F is higher, at 113 tonnes, with the termination of the 747-8F programme next year, Airbus could still take advantage of a replacement need.

And should Airbus deliver the A350F by 2025 as planned, then it will at least have first-mover advantage over Boeing, which has yet to decide whether to offer a freighter variant of its developmental 777X.

In McDonald’s view a 777-8F is unlikely to arrive much before 2028, giving its rival a three-year head-start.

“Airbus has seen a little bit of a gap there and it believes it can leapfrog Boeing with a new technology aircraft,” he said.

Boeing still holds 52 orders for the current -200LR-based 777F, according to the airframer’s data, and is likely to continue production in parallel with the first passenger 777-9s.

To date, it has handed over 209 examples of the widebody freighter since first delivery in 2009, its data shows.

In contrast, Airbus earlier this year cancelled the three outstanding orders for its only factory-built freighter programme, the A330-200F. It has delivered just 38 examples of the widebody cargo variant.

Airbus is also banking on the fuel efficiency of the A350F to see off any potential competition from the 777-300ERSF conversion programme being developed by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and lessor GECAS.

While McDonald said the IAI/GECAS conversion will deliver a “hell of an aircraft” he noted that “you have got to remember that when those aircraft [re-enter service] some of those earliest aircraft will be 19-20 years old”.

And although the 777’s GE90-115BL is a “great engine” it is now “technically superseded by the Trent XWB” on the A350, he said. Therefore “Airbus is counting on the better fuel efficiency” of its new-build freighter to be a key differentiator for certain operators.

For others, however, a list price likely to be three times higher than that of a converted 777 could be too steep.

That view is supported by IAI Aviation Group general manager Yossi Melamed, who shrugs off threat from the A350F. “In our eyes, conversion eyes, we don’t see a [new-build] freighter as a competitor,” he said, adding that such aircraft tend to be acquired by companies “which have a philosophy” of using new-build aircraft. “I’m not in this game.”
