By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor

Welcome back from Mardi Gras Acadiana, and thank you for starting your week with us. It's the start of a short week as life gets back to normal. We start off with a state report on Shell withdrawing its investments from Russia amid the country's invasion of Ukraine.

If you missed the news on Monday, you'll find the report on First Horizon bank — the bank that just made its merger with IberiaBank official recently — has been acquired by TD Bank of Toronto.
