A trio of emergencies has all struck just five weeks ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will be forced to reckon with the crises in the final days of their campaigns. AdvertisementViolence in the Middle East, a massive labor strike among East Coast and Gulf Coast dockworkers, and the devastation of Hurricane Helene all struck with only five weeks before the 2024 presidential election. "What we've seen out of Vice President Harris is we've seen steady leadership," he said when talking about the Middle East. What matters most now is how the candidates' messaging lands with specific communities impacted by these crises, Loge said.

The dollar held its sharpest gain in a week on Wednesday after an Iranian missile attack on Israel drove buying of safe assets as investors fretted about the widening of conflict in the Middle East. The bid for safety kept the yen broadly steady at 143.45 per dollar and the Swiss franc at 0.8463 per dollar. The New Zealand dollar was nursing a 1.1% overnight fall at $0.6283 and oil prices had jumped 2.5%. Westpac strategist Imre Speizer said the Middle East was unpredictable but that in the absence of escalation market sentiment could recover and focus return to economics.

The port strike could spark a US recession if it lasts four weeks or longer, Sea-Intelligence's Alan Murphy said. AdvertisementThe economy could see a hard landing if the ongoing port strike lasts long enough, according to one industry researcher. Alan Murphy, the CEO of the liner research firm Sea-Intelligence, estimates the US could tip into recession if the port strike lasts longer than a month. AdvertisementIf the strike lasts longer than a week, importers will likely have a "manageable crisis" on their hands, Murphy said. "By estimates, it's almost certain to push the US into a recession this year if it lasts longer than a month," he added.

☆ U.S. East Coast Port Workers Begin Early Contract Talks
  + stars: | 2023-02-07 | by ( Paul Berger | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +3 min
The International Longshoremen’s Association, which represents East Coast and Gulf Coast dockworkers, in September asked its locals to open talks with regional employer groups, said James McNamara, an ILA spokesman. A spokesman for the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents carriers and terminal operators on the West Coast, declined to comment. The Port of Houston and Georgia’s Port of Savannah have also benefited from freight diversions away from the West Coast. The West Coast labor talks have significant hurdles to overcome once the two sides resolve their regional disagreements, according to shipping industry officials. Shipping industry officials say the talks covering Gulf Coast and East Coast ports face fewer stumbling blocks.
