This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Nathan Marx, a deckhand for a superyacht. I knew some friends who had entered the yachting industry since leaving school, and it looked very intriguing and adventurous. AdvertisementMy previous job had long hours and was hard work, which made me comfortable stepping into the yachting industry. We also had the privilege of hiking up into the old city, an amazing experience I don't think I would've had otherwise if I wasn't into the yachting industry. But the yachting industry is a tight-knit community that's made me very happy over the past few months, so I'll stay for as long as possible.

“We are going to bring so many auto plants into our country,” Trump said. While the apparent assassination attempt on Sunday featured in his remarks frequently, Trump often sought to keep the town hall-style event focused on the auto industry and tariffs in particular. Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has said Trump’s proposed tariffs would effectively amount to an inflation-driving national sales tax. He also broke down the apparent assassination attempt, and its aftermath — including phone calls with Harris and Biden. Praise for Secret ServiceTrump said the Secret Service “did a hell of a job, they really did,” in stopping Sunday’s apparent attempted assassination.

Most traders expect the Federal Reserve to front-load easing with a big initial rate cut this week. However, JPMorgan strategist Oksana Aronov says a rate cut "is not necessarily even warranted." AdvertisementThis week, the Federal Reserve is expected to decide on the size of its highly-anticipated rate cut. Yet, one strategist says a rate cut isn't necessary at all given the relative strength of the economy. "I'd say that a cut is not necessarily even warranted, given that we're not really seeing a broad-based weakening outside of a more reasonable labor market," JPMorgan strategist Oksana Aronov said.

As expected, the Fed has been coy about cuts, leaving markets torn between pricing in a 25- or 50-basis-point reduction. "In cycles where rate cuts were able to prolong economic expansion and keep corporate earnings on an upward trend, stocks performed quite well," Belski wrote in a mid-September note. AdvertisementWhile rate cuts aren't a cure-all, Belski is confident that the economic expansion will continue, which will keep this bull market on firm footing. "But with significantly strong trailing one-year performance headed into this initial rate cut, future gains are likely to be more muted relative to historical norms."

Flutter said Snai had almost 10% market share in Italy last year and nearly 300,000 monthly active users. The new business will be renamed Flutter Brazil, and the deal is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025.

Massive artificial intelligence models built by the likes of OpenAI will eventually become commoditized with the next wave of value in the technology coming from the applications that are built on top of the models, the co-founder and chair of Infosys told CNBC on Tuesday. Large language models are the AI models trained on amounts of data and they underpin applications like ChatGPT. Companies such as OpenAI and Meta are among the biggest players in this space. Nandan Nilekani, co-founder of Infosys, said there are going to be many different LLMs around the world. "Ultimately, the models will become more commoditized and the value will switch to the application layer and the whole stack."

“I’m here to support my wife and everybody else that deserves the right to have freedom of their reproductive rights,” said Goldberg, a 70-year-old retired computer software developer.
