PrimeXBT, a global multi-asset broker, has expanded its Swap-Free offering to PXTrader 2.0, giving traders access to both Swap-Free and Extended Swap-Free accounts on its proprietary Crypto and CFD trading platform.
Swap-Free replaces the usual overnight swap with a fixed USD-per-lot administrative fee, giving traders more predictable holding costs that can be factored into their strategies, rather than having to account for fluctuating swaps and triple-swap days. Extended Swap-Free removes the overnight administrative fee entirely, with eligibility determined by trading activity and the length of time positions are held. Together, the options make PXTrader 2.0 accessible to traders who cannot pay or receive interest on religious grounds, while providing greater flexibility for those who hold positions overnight.
“Trading costs are often assessed through spreads and commissions, but for traders who keep positions open for longer, the way overnight financing is structured can be equally relevant,” said Jonatan Randin, Senior Market Analyst at PrimeXBT. “Individual requirements also differ significantly, meaning these conditions can ultimately influence not only how traders approach the market, but where they choose to trade.”
The Swap-Free option is available to all PXTrader 2.0 users and can be selected when opening a new account or enabled later through account settings. Swap-Free status and progress towards Extended Swap-Free are shown in-account, while current fees, eligibility criteria, and supported instruments are available under Fees & Conditions > Swap-Free Rules. PrimeXBT also offers Swap-Free trading on MT5, with the key difference that Extended Swap-Free on PXTrader 2.0 has no 30-day limit or instrument exclusions.
The addition of Swap-Free further expands the flexibility of PXTrader 2.0, where traders can access Crypto Futures and CFDs on Forex, Commodities, Indices, Shares and Crypto from a single account. The platform offers competitive trading costs, TradingView-powered charting, adjustable leverage up to 1:1000, and integrated risk-management tools. Accounts are available in USD and cryptocurrencies, including BTC and ETH, allowing traders to use crypto as trading capital across CFD markets. A wide range of fiat, crypto, and local payment methods provides further flexibility in funding accounts.
The introduction of Swap-Free and Extended Swap-Free reflects PrimeXBT’s continued focus on improving trading conditions across its ecosystem, with greater cost efficiency and more choice in how traders access and manage global markets.
PrimeXBT is a global multi-asset broker and crypto asset service provider trusted by traders in more than 150 countries. The platform bridges traditional and digital markets within one integrated environment, redefining versatility and innovation in online trading. Clients can access Forex, CFDs on indices, commodities, shares, crypto, and Crypto Futures, as well as buy, store, and exchange cryptocurrencies.

GUANGDONG, CHINA —Grande Modular Housing (Anhui) Co., Ltd. (“Grande House”), a global leader in portable and modular housing solutions, has officially announced the full operational launch of its dedicated Expandable Container House Super Factory in Zhaoqing, Guangdong Province.
As a strategic addition to its established manufacturing hubs in Hefei (Anhui) and Hengshui (Hebei), the opening of the Zhaoqing facility marks a milestone in Grande House’s global delivery network, standardized smart manufacturing, and agile supply chain synchronization, further solidifying its position at the forefront of the global modular housing industry.
Manufacturing Upgrade: A Next-Generation Hub for Fast Delivery
With surging global demand for eco-resort accommodations, engineering camps, and emergency response housing, traditional construction supply chains are often hampered by fragmented capacity and extended lead times. Situated in the industrial core of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the new Zhaoqing base specializes exclusively in the precision manufacturing and automated assembly of 20FT and customized expandable container homes.
Equipped with high-precision automated welding lines, CNC bending machinery, and all-weather quality testing systems, the Zhaoqing facility expands Grande House’s total production capacity beyond 38,889 square meters. By industrializing the entire workflow—from steel frame prefabrication to sandwich panel anti-corrosion treatment and embedded MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) systems—Grande House has reduced product delivery cycles by nearly 30%.
Executive Vision: Redefining Portable Living Through Industrial Quality
Reflecting on the operational milestone, Joan Li, CEO of Grande House, stated:
“Building a single structure is simple. Delivering a unit thousands of miles across oceans that unfolds seamlessly within minutes while maintaining top-tier residential quality for decades—that demands a rigorous industrial foundation. The opening of our dedicated Zhaoqing super factory is more than an expansion of capacity; it is a major leap forward in our precision manufacturing standards. We remain committed to providing global clients with space solutions that offer uncompromised safety, speed, and modern aesthetic value.”
Stringent Quality Control & Global Compliance
Serving clients across North America, Europe, the Middle East, South America, and Oceania, Grande House treats quality assurance as its operational core. The Zhaoqing facility adheres strictly to international quality management protocols:
· Structural Integrity: All load-bearing steel frameworks undergo galvanized anti-corrosion processing to withstand humid and saline environments.
· Transparent Production: Global buyers can inspect manufacturing workflows and pre-shipment water-tightness/load testing in real time via a 360° Factory VR Tour.
· Sustainable Footprint: Prefabrication processes cut material waste significantly, reducing on-site construction waste by over 80% compared to traditional building methods.
Expanding Global Partnerships
With the Zhaoqing factory running at full capacity, Grande House is accelerating its global partner network. International contractors, resort developers, government procurement agencies, and distributors are invited to schedule virtual VR inspections or on-site visits to explore the next generation of modular living.

Okla, USA, Aug 20, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE— Jimmie Darrell “Jim” Summers, a Tulsa-based investment adviser with more than 40 years of experience, is encouraging people to take part in a free 14-Day Consistency Challenge designed to help individuals develop better everyday habits through small, manageable actions.
The challenge is not about investing or making financial decisions. Instead, it focuses on building the habits that support better decision-making in every area of life: consistency, communication, goal setting, continuous learning, and balance.
After four decades in the financial industry, Summers believes long-term success is rarely created by one major breakthrough.
“To be consistent and being a great communicator,” Summers says. “That’s what matters.”
The challenge was inspired by the same principles that have guided his career since he began working at Merrill Lynch after graduating from college.
“Helping others and doing things that you love doing,” Summers says, “is what has kept me motivated.”
Research suggests that small, repeated habits can have a meaningful impact over time.
A University College London study found that forming a new habit can take an average of 66 days, showing that consistency matters more than perfection.
According to the American Psychological Association, goal setting and regular progress monitoring improve the likelihood of achieving long-term objectives.
Research from Harvard Business School has shown that people who write down and review goals regularly are more likely to stay accountable.
Gallup research consistently finds that people who have a clear sense of purpose and regularly reflect on their progress report higher levels of engagement and well-being.
Summers believes those findings reinforce something he has practiced throughout his career.
“Constant reviews and checking to make sure that I’m consistently hitting my short-term goals and re-evaluating the long-term goals,” he says.
The 14-Day Consistency Challenge
Day 1: Write down one long-term goal you want to achieve.
Day 2: Break that goal into three smaller milestones.
Day 3: Spend 15 minutes reading something that helps you learn a new skill or idea.
Day 4: Reach out to one person with a thoughtful message or phone call simply to check in.
Day 5: Write down three habits that help you stay disciplined.
Day 6: Identify one distraction that regularly interrupts your focus and reduce it for one day.
Day 7: Review your progress and write one lesson you have learned.
Day 8: Read an article or book chapter about a topic you know little about.
Day 9: Organize one area of your workspace or daily routine.
Day 10: Practice active listening during one conversation without interrupting.
Day 11: Review your short-term goals and make one adjustment if needed.
Day 12: Write down three things you are grateful for.
Day 13: Spend 20 quiet minutes reflecting on your personal priorities.
Day 14: Review everything you completed and write one habit you want to continue over the next month.
Faith has also played an important role throughout Summers’ career.
“Prayers asking for wisdom and guidance,” he says, “help keep me grounded.”
He also believes success should never come at the expense of personal well-being.
“They both affect each other and balance is extremely important,” Summers says, referring to work and personal life.
Share Your Progress
Participants who would like to encourage others are invited to share their experience online using prompts such as:
“Today I completed Day ___ of the 14-Day Consistency Challenge. Here’s one thing I learned…”
“The habit that surprised me the most this week was…”
“One small change I’m keeping after the challenge is…”
Those who prefer to keep their journey private can simply use a notebook or journal to record daily reflections and review their progress at the end of the two weeks. The challenge is designed to encourage personal growth, whether shared publicly or kept entirely private.
“The outcome and knowing you’ve stayed committed,” Summers says, “is what matters.”
Jim Summers encourages anyone looking to strengthen their daily habits to join the 14-Day Consistency Challenge. No special tools or experience are required—just a few minutes each day and a commitment to steady progress. Start with Day One today and discover how small, consistent actions can lead to meaningful long-term change.
MIZAN gives CFOs and enterprise leaders deeper visibility into profitability, margins, costs, budget variances and the financial drivers behind business performance.
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — August 20, 2026 — NEXEL by Logic today announced MIZAN, an AI-powered profitability and financial intelligence platform designed to help CFOs, finance leaders and enterprise management teams understand where profitability is created, where margins are being lost and what is driving changes in financial performance.
MIZAN brings financial and operational data together within a unified analytics environment, enabling organizations to examine profitability across business units, products, customers, departments, branches, locations, service lines, projects, contracts, channels and other operating dimensions.
The platform is designed for enterprises that require more granular financial visibility than traditional financial statements and high-level management dashboards can provide.
“Finance teams often know that revenue, cost or margin has changed, but identifying exactly where the change occurred and what caused it can require significant manual analysis,” said Amir Sabry, Managing Partner at NEXEL by Logic. “MIZAN is designed to give CFOs a clearer view of the financial and operational drivers behind performance so they can move from reporting what happened to understanding why it happened.”
Using data available within the organization, finance teams can analyze areas including product profitability, customer profitability, department profitability, branch profitability, project profitability, route profitability, service-line profitability, contribution margins and cost-to-serve.
The platform also supports analysis of direct and indirect costs, shared-cost allocation, operating expenses and other cost drivers that influence true profitability.
By connecting financial information with relevant operational data, MIZAN is intended to help organizations identify factors that may be hidden within aggregated company-level results.
For example, an organization experiencing overall revenue growth may still have individual customers, products, routes, locations or business units where margins are declining. MIZAN allows finance teams to investigate those underlying performance differences and identify potential margin leakage, cost inefficiencies or unprofitable growth.
MIZAN also incorporates AI-powered financial analytics that allow authorized users to interact with financial information using natural-language questions.
Finance leaders can investigate questions such as which business units experienced the largest margin decline, which customers generate high revenue but low contribution margins, where actual costs are exceeding budget, or which operating areas are showing unusual financial performance.
The platform is designed to keep AI-assisted analysis connected to the organization’s underlying financial and operational information, supporting a more evidence-based approach to financial decision-making.
MIZAN also provides capabilities for budget-versus-actual analysis, financial variance analysis, performance monitoring and anomaly detection, helping finance teams identify material movements in revenue, costs, margins and other financial indicators.
This approach is intended to give CFOs and FP&A teams greater visibility into financial performance between traditional reporting cycles and support earlier investigation of unexpected movements.
MIZAN is positioned for organizations operating across Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC, where enterprises often manage multiple entities, branches, projects, business units and ERP environments.
The platform is designed to support multi-dimensional financial analysis while allowing leadership teams to retain both an enterprise-wide view of performance and the ability to investigate individual operating segments.
As organizations across the region continue investing in enterprise data, artificial intelligence and digital transformation, NEXEL by Logic developed MIZAN to address the growing need for stronger connections between financial data, operational activity and executive decision-making.
“Financial intelligence should go beyond another dashboard,” said Sabry. “The objective is to help finance leaders understand the economic structure of the business: what creates value, what consumes it, where margins are changing and which areas require management attention.”
MIZAN is also designed around enterprise governance requirements, including controlled access to financial information, data traceability and auditability.
These capabilities are intended to help organizations maintain appropriate oversight as AI becomes increasingly integrated into financial analysis and executive decision-support processes.
MIZAN is designed for CFOs, Finance Directors, FP&A teams, Financial Controllers, CEOs, COOs and other enterprise leaders responsible for financial performance, profitability and strategic decision-making.
The platform supports use cases across industries including transportation and logistics, retail, healthcare, construction, manufacturing, hospitality and other sectors where profitability depends on understanding the relationship between financial and operational activity.
MIZAN is part of NEXEL by Logic’s broader work in artificial intelligence, data analytics and digital transformation across Saudi Arabia and the GCC.

The International Association for Business Excellence (IABE) has been named a top business award platform for small businesses in 2026, earning a 9.4/10 BAG Gold rating from Business Award Guide. IABE was recognized for its free application, same-day determinations, accessible City-to-International recognition tiers, Five-Pillar evaluation standard, and digital marketing assets including winner badges, recipient pages and business content.
Cheyenne, Wyoming, United States, 20th Aug 2026 — The International Association for Business Excellence (IABE) has been named a top award platform for small businesses in 2026, according to an independent evaluation by Business Award Guide (BAG), which awarded IABE a 9.4 out of 10 overall score and BAG Gold designation in its 2026 business award platform rankings.
The recognition positions IABE as the leading business award option for small and mid-sized companies seeking accessible, fast and marketable business recognition.
According to BAG’s published scorecard, IABE earned a 9.9/10 for Cost & Accessibility, 9.9/10 for Turnaround, 9.5/10 for Marketing Value, 9.4/10 for Reach & Eligibility, and 8.9/10 for Credibility & Judging.
BAG’s overall assessment identifies IABE’s defining advantage as “speed and accessibility,” with the organization offering free applications, same-day approval-or-denial determinations and four recognition levels based on geographic reach.
#1 for Small Business Accessibility
IABE’s model was developed around a simple idea: excellence should not be limited to large corporations or businesses with dedicated awards and marketing departments.
A commercial cleaning company, contractor, engineering firm, real estate company, plumber, roofer, accountant, restaurant, law firm, dentist, software company or other service business can demonstrate excellence without being a multinational corporation.
IABE provides businesses with an opportunity to apply without an application fee and receive a same-day determination under its published process.
Qualified organizations can then select the recognition level appropriate to their reach:
City Recognition — $75
Regional Recognition — $150
National Recognition — $500
International Recognition — $1,000
This reach-based structure gives businesses an opportunity to pursue recognition at the level where they actually operate.
BAG: IABE Has the Strongest Cost-and-Speed Profile
Business Award Guide’s 2026 scorecard specifically identifies IABE as having the strongest cost-and-speed profile in its evaluated set.
BAG states:
“IABE’s scorecard headline is speed and accessibility.”
The evaluation further notes that applications are free, the determination is same-day, and recognition is available through four reach tiers.
BAG also states that IABE is “built for small and service businesses that need a fast, low-cost credibility asset.”
The 9.4/10 overall score makes IABE the highest-ranked platform in the small-business accessibility lane identified by BAG’s published evaluation.
Five-Pillar Standard
IABE evaluates applicants against a published Five-Pillar Standard:
Digital Presence Customer Reputation Operational Standing Industry Experience Professional Integrity
The framework allows IABE to evaluate businesses across industries without requiring every company to fit into the same specialized category.
A roofing company may demonstrate excellence through customer reputation and operational performance.
An engineering firm may demonstrate it through professional integrity, experience and operational standing.
A restaurant may demonstrate excellence through reputation, consistency and customer experience.
A technology company may demonstrate it through its digital presence and operational capabilities.
The industries are different. The standard remains consistent.
More Than an Award Certificate
Another factor highlighted by BAG is IABE’s marketing value.
IABE’s recognition model is designed to provide businesses with digital assets that can continue working after the award is issued.
Depending on the recognition and promotional services selected, winners can receive:
An official certificate
An embeddable digital winner badge
A live IABE recipient page
Winner-focused business content
Company highlights
An in-depth business overview
Links back to the recipient’s website
Press-release opportunities and distribution
The winner badge can be embedded on a company’s website and linked to its live IABE recipient page, providing customers and prospects with a direct path to information about the recognition.
The recipient page also gives the award a permanent online home rather than leaving the recognition as simply a physical certificate or downloadable image.
Turning Recognition Into Content
For small businesses, one of the most significant benefits of recognition can be the content surrounding the award.
IABE can develop winner-focused content that explains not only what award a company received, but also who the company is and why it earned recognition.
That gives a business another opportunity to communicate its:
Company history
Services
Geographic market
Customer reputation
Experience
Areas of expertise
Professional approach
Recognition
The award becomes the catalyst for a larger business story.
IABE can also provide press-release options for businesses that want to formally announce their recognition and distribute the announcement more broadly.
Recognition for Businesses of Every Size
IABE’s approach challenges the idea that meaningful business recognition should be reserved primarily for organizations with large budgets or extensive internal resources.
A small business owner may not have time to complete a lengthy nomination package.
They may not have an employee whose job is preparing award submissions.
They may not want to spend hundreds of dollars simply to enter an award competition with no guarantee of recognition.
And they may not want to wait several months to discover the outcome.
IABE’s free application and same-day determination address those barriers.
The application is free. The determination is fast. The recognition level can correspond to the business’s geographic reach.
Excellence Is Not a Company Size
IABE’s philosophy is that business excellence should not be measured solely by revenue, employee count or corporate scale.
A $500,000 company can have an exceptional reputation.
A $5 million company can operate with extraordinary professionalism.
A local contractor can provide better customer service than a national corporation.
A family-owned restaurant can demonstrate years of operational excellence.
A small engineering firm can deliver outstanding work.
A commercial cleaning company can build a reputation based on reliability and consistency.
The size of the organization does not automatically determine the quality of its operation.
Excellence is a standard, not a dollar amount.
Why IABE Is A Top Business Award for Small Businesses
The BAG evaluation gives IABE particularly strong marks in the areas most relevant to smaller organizations.
9.9/10 — Cost & Accessibility
Businesses can apply without an application fee, while recognition is available through different geographic tiers.
9.9/10 — Turnaround
BAG identifies IABE’s same-day determination as the fastest in its evaluated set.
9.5/10 — Marketing Value
Digital recognition assets, recipient profiles and content opportunities extend the value beyond the certificate itself.
9.4/10 — Reach & Eligibility
IABE provides City, Regional, National and International recognition levels.
8.9/10 — Credibility & Judging
Applications are evaluated against IABE’s published Five-Pillar Standard.
Overall: 9.4/10 — BAG Gold
Together, those scores led Business Award Guide to place IABE at the top of its accessibility-focused business award evaluation.
About the International Association for Business Excellence
The International Association for Business Excellence (IABE) is a business recognition organization that evaluates organizations against its published standards of excellence.
IABE provides recognition across four levels — City, Regional, National and International — and evaluates applicants using Digital Presence, Customer Reputation, Operational Standing, Industry Experience and Professional Integrity.
The organization accepts applications from businesses across industries and company sizes.
Business Award Guide evaluates business recognition platforms using a published scoring methodology that considers credibility and judging, cost and accessibility, turnaround, marketing value, and reach and eligibility.
Its August 2026 IABE scorecard awarded the International Association for Business Excellence 9.4/10 and BAG Gold, with individual scores of 8.9 for Credibility & Judging, 9.9 for Cost & Accessibility, 9.9 for Turnaround, 9.5 for Marketing Value and 9.4 for Reach & Eligibility.
Sacramento, CA — Matias tree service and landscape contractor is seeing more property owners request professional tree care. The company reports rising interest in tree health, safety, and landscape upkeep. This shift reflects growing concern over aging trees and storm damage across Sacramento neighborhoods.
Sacramento, CA 95828, United States, 19th Aug 2026 – Property priorities in Sacramento are changing fast. Many trees planted decades ago now show signs of age and stress. Summer heat and seasonal storms add pressure on root systems and limbs. Matias tree service and landscape contractor has worked with homeowners and businesses managing these exact issues. The company has been serving the Sacramento area since 2013, handling everything from mature oaks to overgrown ornamental trees near homes and driveways.
Pruning ranks among the most requested services this year. Tree removal and storm cleanup follow closely behind.

These services solve real issues, including branches near rooflines and roots lifting sidewalks. Proactive tree care now plays a bigger role in property management decisions. Homeowners want fewer surprises and lower long-term costs, while businesses want to avoid liability tied to falling limbs or unstable trunks near parking areas.
Matias tree service and landscape contractor starts every job with a full property walkthrough. Their crews inspect tree size, condition, and distance from structures before quoting work.

Cliburn Woodwork, a locally operated tree care company, is calling on Southwest Mississippi property owners to prepare trees ahead of peak storm season to reduce storm risks and protect homes across the region.
Brookhaven, MS 39601, United States, 19th Aug 2026 – Southwest Mississippi faces its highest storm risk from June through November, while August through October often brings the most active stretch of hurricane season. Strong winds and heavy rain during this window put trees under added stress. Cliburn Woodwork has worked across Brookhaven, Copiah County, Pike County, and Lawrence County for more than 20 years. That local experience shapes how the company helps residents prepare before storm activity increases.
Tree preparation matters most as hurricane season moves toward its peak. Dead limbs and weakened branches often fail first during high wind events. Structural defects can hide inside a trunk long before any visible warning sign appears. Additionally, overgrown canopies add weight that makes a tree harder to stabilize in a storm. These hazards rarely cause problems on a calm day, and wind and saturated soil change that risk fast.
Professional inspections from Cliburn Woodworks’ experienced arborists catch hazards a routine yard check often misses. They examine limb structure, canopy density, and root stability during each visit. With expert pruning, the team removes dead or weakened growth before wind turns it into a falling hazard. Their trained experts can identify which trees carry the highest risk heading into storm season. This work helps protect roofs, vehicles, and power lines during severe weather. It also reduces blocked driveways and yard damage after a storm passes.
Homeowners, landowners, and property managers can contact Cliburn Woodwork to schedule a tree evaluation. The company offers free estimates for residents throughout Southwest Mississippi. Staff can walk property owners through pruning options, hazard removal, and long-term maintenance plans. Early scheduling helps ensure crews can complete work before storm season peaks.
About Cliburn Woodwork
Cliburn Woodwork has served Southwest Mississippi for more than 20 years, offering tree removal, trimming, stump grinding, and debris hauling. The company is licensed, bonded, and insured, and holds BBB accreditation. In 2024, Cliburn Woodwork was named Best Tree Service in the Best of Southwest Mississippi Community Choice Awards. The company continues to help residents maintain safer, healthier properties throughout Brookhaven and the surrounding counties.
Novarex Capital Partners has declined a proposal from a US-based entity seeking the company’s remainingavailable allocation, choosing instead to maintain its established investor assessment and allocationprocedures.
London, United Kingdom, 19th Aug 2026 – Novarex Capital Partners has announced that it has declined a proposal from a US-based entity seeking to acquire the company’s entire remaining available allocation following the completion of its initial £5 million funding round.
The approach was received following Novarex Capital Partners’ announcement of the successful completion of its initial funding milestone. Due to confidentiality obligations and existing non-disclosure agreements, the identity of the US-based entity cannot be disclosed.
While the proposal represented a significant level of interest, Novarex Capital Partners determined that accepting the full allocation from a single organisation would not align with the company’s established approach to investor onboarding and allocation management.
Novarex Capital Partners applies a structured review process when engaging with prospective investors, including high-net-worth individuals. This process is designed to ensure appropriate assessment, due diligence and alignment with the company’s governance framework before any allocation decisions are made.
Rather than prioritising a single allocation transaction, Novarex Capital Partners has chosen to continue managing allocations through its existing assessment procedures.
The decision reflects Novarex Capital Partners’ commitment to responsible growth, transparency and maintaining appropriate standards throughout its investor relationships.
The announcement follows the company’s previous milestone of completing its initial £5 million funding round, representing an important stage in its development. Since that announcement, Novarex Capital Partners has continued to engage with prospective investors while maintaining its focus on structured processes and long-term strategic objectives.
