Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci threatened with six months prison for holding Senate in contempt

Quick Glance: Senator Threatens Woolworths CEO with Contempt

Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci was threatened with contempt by the Senate committee for failing to answer simple questions.

Banducci refused to answer a question and faced the choice of six months in prison or a $5,000 fine.

Senator McKim insisted that 'return on equity' was an important measure of corporate profitability, to which Banducci repeatedly declined to respond.

The discussion concluded with Banducci admitting to not knowing the return on equity for the Woolworths Group last financial year and Senator McKim threatening him with contempt.

Quick Glance: Bitcoin 'Halving' Completed, CoinGecko Reports

Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, completed its 'halving' on Friday, a phenomenon that occurs roughly every four years according to CoinGecko.

Following the 'halving', Bitcoin remained relatively stable, dropping by 0.47% to $63,747.

The 'halving' was integrated into Bitcoin's code at its inception to reduce the rate of new Bitcoins being created.

Experts are divided on whether the upcoming 'halving' will boost Bitcoin's price, with some viewing it as already factored in, while others remain skeptical.
