But Pennsylvania stands apart as the state that top strategists for both Ms. Harris and Mr. Trump have circled as the likeliest to tip the election. There are struggling industrial towns where Mr. Trump needs to maximize his vote, and smaller cities booming with Latino immigrants where Ms. Harris aims to make gains. Mr. Trump won the county in 2016 by 19 percentage points, only four years after Mr. Obama carried it narrowly. One X factor is the regional impact of the assassination attempt on Mr. Trump in Butler County. “You guys don’t know what the hell it is,” Mr. Trump said of the tax break.

☆ SpaceX may receive FAA license for next Starship launch in time for Sunday attempt
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-08 | by ( Michael Sheetz | In Michaeljsheetz | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

The Federal Aviation Administration may issue SpaceX its next Starship license in time for a Sunday launch attempt, CNBC has learned. SpaceX and its CEO Elon Musk have been vocally critical of the FAA in recent weeks, urging the federal regulator to speed up its license review for Starship's fifth test flight. As recently as last week, the FAA said it did not expect to issue the license before "late November." Despite the ongoing review, SpaceX issued a statement Monday saying that the fifth Starship spaceflight "could launch as soon as October 13, pending regulatory approval." The FAA will make a licensing determination once SpaceX has met all licensing requirements," the FAA said.

A jury found Nevada official Michele Fiore guilty of misusing $70,000 meant for a memorial. The statue was to honor a Las Vegas police officer killed in the line of duty. Prosecutors said funds were spent on personal expenses like rent, plastic surgery, and a wedding. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officer, along with fellow officer Igor Soldo, was shot and killed "execution-style" while eating lunch in June 2014, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page. An exhibit list showed that FBI agents also seized invoice documents for a Las Vegas plastic surgery practice.

Then there's the upside progress made in the third quarter without the leadership of super-cap tech – the equal-weighted S & P 500 is up nearly 9% since June 30 and the Nasdaq 100 up less than 2%. Goldman Sachs here plots the S & P 500 forward P/E at the time of each initial rate cut in a cycle. For sure, a breather would make sense for the broad market, with the S & P 500 up 11 of the past 15 days. In either case, it's a notable deviation from the story of placid strength being told by the S & P 500 itself. The median Wall Street strategist target for the S & P 500 is now well below the current index level, usually not something one sees at an ultimate market peak.
