Target , Kohl's and Best Buy each reported disappointing third-quarter results as early holiday deals fell short of meaningfully boosting their businesses. Choosy consumers have made the gulf between successful and struggling retailers even more stark heading into the holiday shopping season, said Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData Retail. That's a smaller year-over-year increase than the 3.9% jump from the 2022 to 2023 holiday season, when spending totaled $955.6 billion. Dick's and Abercrombie both hiked their full-year outlooks this week and said they expect a strong holiday shopping season. Kohl's warned it will have a deeper-than-expected drop in sales and announced a change in CEO ahead of the crucial shopping season.

CNN —In a single post, the president-elect told the world what the end of the Ukraine war might look like. Kellogg, Trump’s 80-year-old former national security advisor, has laid out his peace plan in some detail, writing for the America First policy institute in April. Kellogg says more weapons should have been given before the Russian invasion, and immediately afterwards, to enable Ukraine to win. But that’s when the plan – which CNN has reported that Trump’s soon-to-be national security adviser is considering - stops being to Ukraine’s liking. The plan notes the United States manufactures 14,000 155 artillery rounds a month, which Ukraine can use up in just 48 hours.

Will the Markets Check Trump’s Power?
  + stars: | 2024-11-29 | by ( Jeff Sommer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The president-elect follows the markets closely. Since Election Day, a great deal of financial analysis has been devoted to one central question: How will the new Trump administration affect the markets? But another important question isn’t being asked as frequently: To what extent can the markets serve as a check on the power of the president? Given this vacuum, it’s reasonable to wonder whether the markets will play an outsize role. Yes, in a tenuous and unpredictable way, the markets are likely to influence the next administration’s decision-making and, occasionally, serve as a check on some of Mr. Trump’s most immoderate behavior.

However, one market watcher considers U.S. stocks to be expensive and is now seeking opportunities in cheaper markets with what he sees as better risk-adjusted returns. "Many large U.S. stocks appear to be expensive and consequently are offering lower future returns," Morningstar analysts wrote in a 2025 outlook report. 'Attractive pockets' Going forward, Morningstar's top executive is optimistic on markets like Japan and China which present "attractive pockets" of opportunity.

Federal ethics laws require those senior government jobs in the Cabinet and beyond to divest their individual stock holdings, lest anyone be tempted to abuse their position of power to juice their personal investments. “The rule of thumb is, recuse or divest,” said Jordan Libowitz, vice president for communications at Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, or CREW. “The more complex your assets are, the harder it can be to divest from them. Although the president isn’t subject to conflict of interest laws, most presidents have adhered to them anyway to avoid any appearance of impropriety. Given Trump’s own disregard for ethics rules, it’s not clear how, or even whether, his Justice Department would enforce the criminal conflict of interest laws that his Cabinet picks are subject to.
