(CNN) – Fulton County prosecutors have discussed potential plea deals with at least six additional co-defendants charged alongside Donald Trump for attempting to subvert the 2020 presidential election, multiple sources tell CNN. Pro-Trump lawyer Robert Cheeley is among those who have been offered a plea deal in the Georgia case but, according to his lawyer, turned it down. A source with knowledge of the Fulton County DA’s strategy tells CNN that it would be open to discussing plea deals with anyone, but there is little room for compromise when it comes to the charges against Trump. To be clear, there is no indication that prosecutors or Trump’s legal team are interested in discussing a plea deal. John Eastman, who is also considered one of Trump’s most high-profile co-defendants, has not been offered a plea deal either, his lawyer told CNN.

Image Robert Card. Mr. Card was last known to be driving a white Subaru Outback with a black bumper, officials said. The neighbor, Rick Goddard, 44, said he had known the Card family most of his life, because Mr. Goddard lives less than a mile down the road from the Card family house. At the address for the Card family home, no one answered the door on Thursday, and there was only one car parked out front. “We’re on edge right now because we know this is his stomping area,” Mr. Goddard said.

☆ Chevron’s $53 billion deal is risky Exxon copycat
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Robert Cyran | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

The $318 billion oil giant said Monday it would buy New York-based Hess (HES.N) for $53 billion in an all-stock deal. The main appeal for Chevron is Hess’s 30% stake in a consortium producing oil offshore in Guyana. Importantly, Chevron is catching up to Exxon, which runs and owns 45% of the same Guyana consortium. Higher production in Guyana after 2024 will increase Chevron’s returns, assuming the price of oil remains favorable. Hess owns a 30% share in a consortium in Guyana alongside Exxon, which owns a 45% interest, and Chinese oil company CNOOC, which owns the remaining 25%.

☆ Student-loan borrowers are being stripped of debt relief and cheaper monthly payments because of poor customer service, a federal watchdog says
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Ayelet Sheffey | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

A CFPB report analyzed over 9,000 complaints it received from student-loan borrowers in the past year. It found that poor customer service at servicers have kept borrowers without relief they deserve. In that time period, 9,284 consumers submitted student-loan complaints — 6,934 of which were related to federal loans and 2,350 of which were related to private loans. Over the summer, Biden rolled out a new income-driven repayment plan, known as the SAVE plan, intended to lower many borrowers' monthly payments. For example, one borrower complaint to the CFPB stated: "I cannot get ahold of my loan servicer.

Members of the World Cup squad, the statement read, were still waiting for correct payments for their performances at the tournament and accused the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) of poor management.

☆ Some student-loan borrowers with private debt are being forced to make payments they don't owe, a federal watchdog says
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Ayelet Sheffey | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

The CFPB released a report analyzing complaints from private and federal student-loan borrowers. AdvertisementAdvertisementSome lenders might be discouraging private student-loan borrowers from receiving relief to which they're entitled. In that time period, 9,284 student-loan borrowers submitted complaints — 6,934 of which were related to federal loans and 2,350 of which were related to private loans. The current private student-loan portfolio in the US has about $132 billion in outstanding debt, which is 8% of the total outstanding student debt. As Insider previously reported, private student-loan borrowers are more vulnerable than federal borrowers because they do not have the same avenues for federal debt relief and repayment, and it's harder to regulate private lenders that can set their own terms.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Bobby Charlton, an English soccer icon who survived a plane crash that decimated a Manchester United team destined for greatness to become the heartbeat of his country's 1966 World Cup-winning team, has died. “Sir Bobby was a hero to millions, not just in Manchester, or the United Kingdom, but wherever football is played around the world,” United said. “There was always one great hope — the return to greatness of my beloved club,” Charlton said. The biggest prize of his club career arrived in 1968 as United became the first English club to become champion of Europe. But Charlton is perhaps best known for being part of the England team that won the World Cup.

☆ Merck’s cancer rush may spawn lower returns
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-20 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

The American drug company said on Thursday it signed a giant deal with Daiichi Sankyo (4568.T) for the rights to sell three potential drugs outside Japan. Merck will pay $4 billion upfront, up to another $1.5 billion over the next two years, and as much as $16.5 billion if the drugs pass certain sales milestones. Merck’s Keytruda accounts for about 40% of the company’s revenue, and that cancer drug might face cut-price competition before the end of the decade. The potential is giant, as these targeted therapies might eventually account for a quarter of the current oncology market. With over 100 of these drugs in clinical trials, the stampede might lead to lower-than-expected returns.

HENRY TAYLOR How the figurative painter made portraiture the dominant mode of art in our era — and changed the way America sees itself. It was Henry Taylor doing Henry Taylor, like a pop star in his Vegas residency phase. A few seasons earlier, for Miu Miu’s spring 2022 collection, Prada delivered raw-edge chino micro-miniskirts belted below the hip bone.

[1/2] A worker looks on at a construction site of residential buildings by Chinese developer Country Garden, in Beijing, China August 11, 2023. Non-payment would trigger cross defaults in other Country Garden bonds as is standard in bond contracts. Country Garden reiterated on Wednesday that it expects to be unable to meet all of its offshore debt obligations and hopes to seek a "holistic" solution to its difficulties. Shares in Country Garden have lost some 70% of their value this year but gained some ground on Wednesday, rising 2.7%. "I think Country Garden offshore US dollar bond pricing speaks for itself as to the current expectations," said Real Estate Foresight co-founder Robert Ciemniak who publishes on Smartkarma.

On Monday on Wall Street, the S&P 500 climbed 1.1% for its best day since the Oct. 7 surprise attack on Israel by Hamas. Financial markets have a history of weakening initially after a geopolitical shock, such as a war, only to revert to longer-term fundamentals. FactSet estimates that earnings per share at S&P 500 companies likely rose 0.4% in the last quarter from a year earlier.

"There's increasing evidence that the cyclical upturn in the global electronics sector is driving a bottoming-out of global trade and China's trade data is the latest sign," said Xu Tianchen, senior economist at the Economist Intelligence Unit.

Semiconductors make up the bulk of their trade, signalling improving appetite among Chinese manufacturers for components to re-export in finished goods. However, Lv Daliang, spokesperson of the General Administration of Customs, said at a press conference on Friday that China's trade still faces a complex and severe external environment. Overall, though, total merchandise imports fell at a slower pace, down 6.3%, reflecting a gradual recovery in domestic demand.

Yet, authorities can take some comfort from recent data including upbeat factory activity and retail sales while the past Golden Week holiday travel edged up 4.1% from pre-pandemic 2019 levels. Most analysts have been reiterating in recent months that policymakers will need to go further than introducing piecemeal measures in order to bolster the economic recovery.

Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., September 11, 2023. Revenue at the pizza delivery company was down about 4% from the same period last year, as restaurants in the U.S. sold less. Walgreens, meanwhile, lost $180 million in the quarter, while citing significantly lower revenue from Covid tests and vaccines. Meanwhile, Delta delivered record revenue for the quarter, with 30% earnings growth year-on-year, and is quickly repaying debt it took on during the chaos of 2020. While there’s no room for complacency about future shocks, third-quarter earnings might provide a bookend to a strange, turbulent time.

Mike Lindell, CEO of My Pillow Inc., speaks during the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Dallas, Texas, on Friday, Aug. 5, 2022. The attorneys defending Mike Lindell and his business against defamation claims from voting machine companies are seeking to sever ties with the "MyPillow Guy" over millions of dollars in unpaid legal fees. "At this time, Defendants are in arrears by millions of dollars to PDK," the filing said. The firm said that if it was forced to continue providing legal services to Lindell, the "future fees and costs will amount to millions of dollars in addition to the millions of dollars already owed."
