  Sam Bankman-Fried will be sentenced in Manhattan on Thursday. The fallen crypto star convicted of fraud will find out just how long his stay in prison will be this week. Criminal sentencing guidelines call for the FTX co-founder to receive a sentence of 100 years, although prosecutors have called for a sentence of 40 to 50 years. SBF sees things much differently, and his lawyers have suggested 6.5 years is enough to ensure their client has learned his lesson after his more than 1 million victims lost more than $10 billion upon the collapse of FTX.

  U.S. energy firms this week cut the number of natural gas rigs operating to the lowest level since January 2022, energy services firm Baker Hughes said in its closely followed report on Friday.

  
  

  The combined oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, fell by five to 624 in the week to March 22, putting the total rig count down 134, or 18%, below this time last year.

  
  

  The number of oil rigs fell by one to 509 this week, while gas rigs decreased by four to 112, their lowest level since mid-January 2022.

  
  

  Most of those gas rig cuts were in the Haynesville shale gas field in Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas, which fell by four to 36 rigs this week, the lowest since October 2020.
