The rally provides little relief to CEO Pat Gelsinger, who has had a tough run since taking the helm in 2021. Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger speaks while showing silicon wafers during an event called AI Everywhere in New York, Thursday, Dec. 14, 2023.

Israel's missile defense system faced its most difficult test in April, when Iran launched hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel. Ultimately, the virtue of missile defense may be that it is the least bad alternative.

My last serious romantic relationship was one of the most important relationships of my life. I was nervous when I told Cooper about my close relationship with Moses. The short relationships I had between Moses and Cooper made me extremely anxious about my friendship with Moses. It's unusual to remain in such close contact with an ex — especially one who wants to get back together — without a new partner feeling some pangs of jealousy. Before meeting me, Cooper was in an emotionally and financially stifling relationship where he felt prohibited from spending time with his friends.
