Investors who fear stubborn inflation, if not an outright rebound, got a bit of a salve on Friday morning. Wholesale prices showed no change month over month for September, coming in below expectations. The producer price index report may help offset some of the slight concerns about Thursday's consumer price index report, which was a bit hotter than expected. The personal consumption expenditures price index for September will be released on Oct. 31. "We think the Fed is really still on track to cut 25 [basis points] at each of the next two meetings," Seif added.

But, Banks said, “I just kept putting pressure on them.” With the help of an advocate, Banks asked authorities to issue an Ebony Alert, California’s new notification system to inform the public about missing Black youths. Two hours after issuing the Ebony Alert, officers pinged the teen’s phone, allowing them to geolocate the device. She said she has helped a dozen families, including Banks’, demand an Ebony Alert for their missing children. Similar to an Amber Alert, Ebony Alerts are permitted to be displayed on highway signs and billboards. Because officers determine whether to issue the alert, Lee said the cases of missing Black youth are often not met with the same level of urgency.

European markets are heading for a positive open Thursday as investors await the latest U.S. inflation data for more signs that price pressures are easing.

The result will also inform the Federal Reserve's next steps on policy at its November meeting. Fed funds futures trading data suggests a roughly 70% likelihood of a quarter-point cut, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool. U.S. stock futures were little changed Wednesday night, while Asia-Pacific markets opened mostly higher on Thursday, buoyed by gains on Wall Street on Wednesday.

The Nobel committee just entered the AI chat
  + stars: | 2024-10-10 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +4 min
When asked by a reporter whether the committee took the AI connection into consideration when judging the nominees, one member on the chemistry committee basically brushed off the question and insisted the decisions were made purely on the science. The Nobel committee letting politics or PR weigh on their decisions? At first glance, it could seem like the Nobel committee has been gulping down Big Tech’s AI Kool-Aid. While gesturing to generative AI, Wong noticed that no one mentioned ChatGPT or Gemini or any other consumer-facing AI tools that companies are peddling. Similarly, in announcing the chemistry prize on Wednesday, committee members talked a lot about amino acid sequences and structural biochemistry.

Why investors shouldn’t sweat this inflation report

The latest inflation report came in slightly hotter than expected, knocking stock prices lower. But the odds of a quarter-point Fed rate cut in November actually rose after the report came out. "CPI Inflation data was slightly on the hotter side, with commodity prices (outside) energy rising more than expected. The good news is that shelter inflation is pulling back and that's going to pull inflation lower. Investors received fresh labor market data Thursday as well, with initial jobless claims jumping by 33,000 to 258,000.

Audience members walked out of a recent "Terrifier 3" screening, and one person vomited. A violent scene in "Terrifier 2" helped create buzz around the movie, helping it make $15 million. AdvertisementAudience members were so disgusted by the ultra-gory horror movie "Terrifier 3" that they walked out of a screening last week — which is great news for its marketing team. The hype likely helped the independent movie rake in $15 million against a budget of $250,000, despite having no backing from a major Hollywood studio. It remains to be seen if "Terrifier 3" will be another cult hit — and what horrors will befall the victims of "Terrifier 4," which was greenlit in September.

Atlanta CNN —Every October, World Mental Health Day tries to expand the conversation around mental health and brings awareness to the many ways you can improve your emotional well-being. I wish I could tell you a story about the exact point in time when I started to struggle with my mental health. It’s the most pure and honest relationship I’ve ever experienced, and for that, horses are a mental health tool I continue to come back to. Some studies show equine-assisted psychotherapy can help with a variety of mental health issues including anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, trauma, depression and antisocial behavior. “You just come as you are.”The Stride Ahead care team spends time with one of the program’s therapy horses.

You don't need to know exactly how you'll use your retirement savings — instead, focus on timing. I recently spoke with my financial planner, Liz Schieck, about investing and saving for retirement.

Current trends around investing and retirementMany new clients at Schieck's firm first reach out because they want to discuss saving for retirement. Schieck believes that you don't always have to know what you're saving for.

The unexpectedly hot inflation reading complicates the prospect of further rate cuts from the Fed. This index was expected to see a year-over-year increase of 2.3%, a cooler rate than August's 2.5%. The surprisingly hot inflation reading is a sign that the economy is running strong, and complicates the Fed's next rate decision, since in theory higher inflation would make further cuts less likely. AdvertisementThat could be because the market also digested weekly jobless-claim figures that came in higher than expected. Following a surprisingly strong September jobs report, speculation rose that the Fed might slow its pace of rate cuts — or even stop them altogether.

New Zealand will update its guidelines on transgender athletes in community sport following criticism from Olympians that the principles ignore female athletes’ rights and undermine fairness and safety. Critics of transgender inclusion in women’s sport say going through male puberty imbues athletes with a huge musculo-skeletal advantage that transition does not mitigate. Supporters of transgender participation argue that not enough research has been done into the impact of transition on athletic performance and excluding transgender athletes amounts to discrimination. Sport NZ’s “Guiding Principles for the Inclusion of Transgender People in Community Sport” do not apply to elite sport. Individual sports in New Zealand govern how transgender athletes participate at elite levels.

French Prime Minister Michel Barnier (C) ahead of his general policy statement to the French National Assembly in Paris on October 1, 2024. The budget is being widely previewed as an "austerity" budget that will see the government of new Prime Minister Michel Barnier present tax-hiking and cost-cutting measures that could rile opposition parties on both the left and right, and even the centrists that put him in power. In sum, Barnier's government is a fragile one and vulnerable to predatory challenges from the left and right of the political spectrum. But such a large dose of austerity may make even 1.1% growth difficult to achieve," he said in emailed analysis. "Finally, even if the budget is passed and does not dent economic growth too much, France's fiscal position would still be precarious.

Russian troops have been using Discord to coordinate drone attacks, but it was banned on Tuesday. Federal regulators said they blocked the gaming messaging platform because it could be used for crime. Discord allows users to join a closed group voice call and livestream to other users from their screens or cameras. One pundit channel, Military Informant, blasted Roskomnadzor's decision as "madness," while another sarcastically thanked the regulator for giving Russian troops another challenge to "bypass the consequences of another wise decision." Discord, Roskomnadzor, and the Russian defense ministry did not immediately respond to comment requests sent outside regular business hours by Business Insider.

Tampa General Hospital is bracing itself for Hurricane Milton with an AquaFence flood barrier. AdvertisementAs Hurricane Milton approaches Florida's central-west coast, Tampa General Hospital, located on a low-lying man-made island, is bracing for disaster, and is preparing to put its flood defenses to the test. Although the fence was successful in protecting the hospital from Hurricane Helene a couple of weeks ago, Hurricane Milton may prove more challenging. A previous disaster-planning project, modeled after a fictional "Hurricane Phoenix" that was more devastating than Milton is expected to be, highlighted Tampa General Hospital's vulnerabilities.
