Mitch McConnell suddenly became disoriented while answering questions on Wednesday. The incident occurred just over a month after he abruptly stopped speaking at a press conference. "Leader McConnell felt momentarily lightheaded and paused during his press conference today," a McConnell spokesperson told CNN. AdvertisementAdvertisementLast month, McConnell abruptly and awkwardly stopped speaking during a press conference at the Capitol before being whisked away. He later told reporters that he was "fine" and an aide of his told Insider that the senator only stepped away because he "felt lightheaded."

Turkey's Central Bank headquarters is seen in Ankara, Turkey in this January 24, 2014 file photo. Yet five foreign investors told Reuters that this week's rate hike signalled a new independence among policymakers who are serious about addressing unrelenting pressure on the currency and reining in inflation expectations. "It feels like they are correcting the mistakes they made with their first rate hike decisions," said Viktor Szabo, portfolio manager at abrdn in London. Erdogan, who has fired four central bank chiefs in four years, has said little about the rate hikes. Reuters GraphicsTurkish stock, Eurobond and CDS markets are more attractive targets this year and next, especially after the rate hike, investors and officials say.

REUTERS/Hollie Adams/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSYDNEY, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Australia's second-largest pension fund plans to open its first overseas office by mid-2024, its chief investment officer said on Friday, the latest retirement manager to look overseas as the country's pension sector outgrows the home market. The team will "almost certainly" be based in London and only be small because ART relies mostly on external managers, Patrick said, adding the office would likely open between now and mid-2024. A decision on a second overseas office would be made 12 to 24 months after the first opens. ART invests roughly two-thirds of all new money funds overseas.

Some investors and economic analysts are sceptical that expansion will lead to increased foreign direct investment (FDI) within the bloc. Still, BRICS leaders and other investors touted the increased economic heft from the expansion. Increasing use of national currencies to reduce U.S. dollar dependence was another goal BRICS leaders discussed at the summit in Johannesburg. And with oil producer heavyweights among the newcomers, investors said this would feed speculation that Saudi Arabia might increasingly switch to non-dollar-denominated currencies for oil trade. "The short-term consequences could be seen in oil," said Kaan Nazli, a portfolio manager at asset manager Neuberger Berman in London.

Iowa is famous for the butter cows at its state fair. The butter cows aren't made entirely of butter? "The Butter Cow starts with a wood, metal, wire, and steel mesh frame and about 600 lbs. of low moisture, pure cream Iowa butter," per the Iowa State Fair's official website. "Once inside the 40-degree cooler, layers of butter are applied until a life-size butter cow emerges - measuring about 5-1/2-ft high and 8-ft long."

However, they may be missing out if they are bypassing dividend stocks altogether, according to Neuberger Berman senior portfolio manager Sandy Pomeroy, who manages the Neuberger Berman Equity Income Fund (NBHAX) . Right now, dividend stocks haven't been this cheap since the tech boom of the 1990s, Pomeroy said. Dividend stocks have underperformed this year: The SPDR S & P Dividend ETF (SPYD) has a total return of -5% in 2023, per FactSet. In comparison, the SPDR S & P 500 ETF (SPY) has a total return of nearly 15%. Deere, which has a 1.3% dividend yield, reported an earnings and revenue beat before the bell Friday.

UPS workers could get $170,000 in combined pay and benefits in 5 years' time thanks to their new union deal. Some tech workers seem mad about this. But members of Congress make $174,000 annually, and are only required to work about 155 days a year. As Insider reported last week, tech workers, or people claiming to be them, took to anonymous message boards like Blind to complain about the deal. Tech workers looking for easier jobs that pay well should simply run for office instead of complaining anonymously on message boards.

☆ Ron DeSantis refuses to say what he'd do if one of his kids is gay or trans: 'We'll leave that between my wife and I'

Ron DeSantis refused to say how he would respond if one of his children is gay. DeSantis has fought to pass restrictions in Florida on how gender identity and other topics can be taught. But when asked by Time Magazine how he would respond if one of his three kids turned out to be gay or trans, he didn't have much to say. DeSantis' presidential campaign has been struggling, to put it mildly. As of today, according to FiveThirtyEight, DeSantis trails Trump by nearly 40 percentage points in major national polls.

Groups connected to the meat industry have said for years that plant-based meats aren't healthy. But it also counters one of the most common criticisms of plant-based meats from the animal meat industry – that these products are highly processed and unhealthy to eat. The Center has ties to the meat industry, according to Fast Company. In its own ads and messaging, the Center said that plant-based meat was "ultra-processed" and that the products posed health risks. The ad comes as Beyond Meat, Impossible, and other plant-based meat makers deal with a slump in sales.

▼ + stars: | 2023-07-29 | by ( Dan Berman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

Washington CNN —A federal judge in Florida on Friday dismissed a $475 million defamation lawsuit former President Donald Trump brought against CNN that accused the network of defaming him by using the phrase “the big lie” and allegedly comparing him to Adolf Hitler. District Judge Raag Singhal, a 2019 appointee of Trump’s, said that use of the phrase or similar statements are opinion that don’t meet the standard for defamation. “Being “Hitler-like” is not a verifiable statement of fact that would support a defamation claim,” Singhal added. “Like Trump and CNN personalities … the Court finds Nazi references in the political discourse (made by whichever ‘side’) to be odious and repugnant,” Singhal wrote. CNN will be held responsible for their wrongful mistreatment of President Trump and his supporters.”CNN declined to comment on the decision.

☆ Samuel Alito tells Congress to stay out of Supreme Court ethics controversy
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-28 | by ( Dan Berman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Congress should stay out of the Supreme Court’s business and stop trying to impose ethics rules on justices and clerks, Justice Samuel Alito said in an interview published by The Wall Street Journal editorial page Friday. “Congress did not create the Supreme Court,” Alito said. No provision in the Constitution gives them the authority to regulate the Supreme Court – period.”Spurred by a string of stories calling out questionable ethical decisions and a lack of transparency and disclosure, Senate Democrats have advanced legislation meant to create a code of ethics for the Supreme Court. In an unusual move, Alito last month sought to preempt a ProPublica report on him by publishing a Wall Street Journal op-ed rather than responding to ProPublica’s request for comment directly. “If we’re viewed as illegitimate, then disregard of our decisions becomes more acceptable and more popular,” Alito said.
