▼ + stars: | 2024-11-04 | by ( ) www.nbcnews.com time to read: +1 min

Despite increased market volatility stemming from the U.S. presidential election on Tuesday, consumer confidence toward equities has reached its most bullish point ever. The latest Consumer Confidence survey by The Conference Board showed 51.4% of participants — the highest level on record — expect stocks to rise over the next year. This is despite rising uncertainty in the markets from the looming election, evidenced by the stock market’s inability to score further gains on Monday. The record-high consumer confidence in the stock market is “something that makes us say: hmm,” chief market technician Jonathan Krinsky wrote in a note on Sunday. Krinsky noted that bonds remain “slippery,” with the 10-year Treasury yield potentially climbing back to 4.5%.

Companies that buy the largest share of their goods from China could be damaged the most by plans to raise tariffs under another Trump presidency, according to Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach wrote, "53% of goods were sourced from China as of FY23, though the company is targeting mid-teens by FY24." Most analysts covering the name are neutral, although the average price target is approximately 12% above Best Buy's current price. Analysts are generally neutral on RH, with the average price target only 2% above where shares are currently trading. Analysts are also generally neutral on this stock, with the average price target indicating potential 3% downside over the next 12 months.

Musk has used X to spread unfounded allegations about voting systems, laying groundwork to question the election before it happens. To better understand the security of US voting systems and why there’s no indication that they’re not secure, I talked to CNN’s Zachary Cohen, who covers national security, and Sean Lyngaas, who covers cybersecurity. There are three large election equipment vendors in the US: Dominion; ES&S, or Election Systems and Software; and Hart InterCivic. Dominion Voting Systems ballot-counting machines are lined up at a Torrance County warehouse during testing of election equipment with local candidates and partisan officers in Estancia, New Mexico, on September 29, 2022. COHEN: We know people, these pro-Trump operatives and lawyers, have already gotten access to election software – voting software, voting systems in Georgia, copied the entire election database from several counties.

Yet it's precisely butter that's been a headache for Russia, with a 25.7% price increase this year. "There is a well-known phrase: guns instead of butter," Putin said last February. By the end of October, the price of butter in Russia was up 25.7% compared to December 2023, per government statistics. Why butter prices are on the riseA week before that meeting, the same union said the country wasn't experiencing a butter shortage, but added that about 25% of local butter consumption comes from foreign suppliers. AdvertisementAnother major dairy supplier complying with wartime sanctions, New Zealand, sold $88.8 million worth of butter to Russia yearly before the invasion began.

But that hasn’t stopped abortion rights supporters from pushing for votes up and down the ballot. Across the South, supporters of abortion rights are using the issue to motivate voters. Although Texas does not have a statewide referendum on abortion, Rep. Colin Allred's Senate campaign has galvanized abortion rights supporters. It’s easier for Democrats to campaign on the issue, she said, because their party is more united in favor of abortion rights than Republicans are in opposition. That switch proved pivotal in passing the state’s abortion ban.

Overall, UBS said stocks within its Trump administration beneficiaries basket indicate a win for the former president next week. Here is a look at some of the stocks UBS has placed in each grouping. Also, a Trump administration could roll back some actions that were favorable to utilities with exposure to renewables. Other sectors that can benefit from a Harris win include homebuilding as well as child care and employment agencies, Garthwaite added.

Israel's weapon of choice in its attack on Iran was the air-launched ballistic missile. Their weapon of choice: Air-launched ballistic missiles. The Israeli Air Force's use of various ALBMs suggests some middle ground was ultimately reached. While Israel does have an arsenal of land-based Jericho intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs), these are reserved for nuclear strikes. Israel designed its Sparrow missiles to simulate Iraqi Scud and Iranian Shahab ground-launched missiles for testing its Arrow interceptor missiles, which successfully intercepted most of the incoming Iranian ballistic missiles fired at Israel on October 1.

Biden mentioned Puerto Rico, slandered as a “floating island of garbage” by a comedian at Trump’s event on Sunday night. “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said, pausing for a moment before continuing. She’s now almost certain to be asked whether she also regards Trump’s backers as “garbage.” Her answer will only prolong the story. In a neck-and-neck race that may be decided by mere thousands of votes in swing states, neither Harris nor Trump can afford mistakes.
