NPP National Chairman Stephen Ntim shakes Asutifi South ConstituencyStocks closed higher on Wall Street at the start of a holiday-shortened week. The S&P 500 rose 0.7% Monday. Several big technology companies helped support the gains, including chip companies Nvidia and Broadcom. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite rose 1%. Honda’s U.S.-listed shares rose sharply after the company said it was in talks about a combination with Nissan in a deal that could also include Mitsubishi Motors. Eli Lilly rose after announcing that regulators approved Zepbound as the first prescription medicine for adults with sleep apnea. Treasury yields rose in the bond market. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below. Major stock indexes rose on Wall Street in afternoon trading Monday, after a choppy start to a holiday-shortened week. The S&P 500 rose 0.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average recovered from an early slide to gain 29 points, or 0.1% as of 3:40 p.m. Eastern time. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite rose 0.8%. Gains in technology and communications stocks helped outweigh losses in consumer goods companies and elsewhere in the market. Semiconductor giant Nvidia, whose enormous valuation gives it an outsize influence on indexes, rose 3.3%. Broadcom climbed 5.5% to also help support the broader market. Walmart fell 2% and PepsiCo slid 1.2%. Japanese automakers Honda Motor and Nissan said they are talking about combining in a deal that might also include Mitsubishi Motors. U.S.-listed shares in Honda jumped 13.4%, while Nissan slipped 0.2%. Eli Lilly rose 3.5% after announcing that regulators approved Zepbound as the first and only prescription medicine for adults with sleep apnea. Department store Nordstrom fell 1.6% after it agreed to be taken private by Nordstrom family members and a Mexican retail group in a $6.25 billion deal. The Conference Board said that consumer confidence slipped in December. Its consumer confidence index fell back to 104.7 from 112.8 in November. Wall Street was expecting a reading of 113.8. The unexpectedly weak consumer confidence update follows several generally strong economic reports last week. One report showed the overall economy grew at a 3.1% annualized rate during the summer, faster than earlier thought. The latest report on unemployment benefit applications showed that the job market remains solid. A report on Friday said a measure of inflation the Federal Reserve likes to use was slightly lower last month than economists expected. Worries about inflation edging higher again had been weighing on Wall Street and the Fed. The central bank just delivered its third cut to interest rates this year, but inflation has been hovering stubbornly above its target of 2%. It has signaled that it could deliver fewer cuts to interest rates next year than it earlier anticipated because of concerns over inflation. Expectations for more interest rate cuts have helped drive a roughly 25% gain for the S&P 500 in 2024. That drive included 57 all-time highs this year. Inflation concerns have added to uncertainties heading into 2025, which include the labor market's path ahead and shifting economic policies under an incoming President Donald Trump. "Put simply, much of the strong market performance prior to last week was driven by expectations that a best-case scenario was the base case for 2025," said Brent Schutte, chief investment officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company Treasury yields rose in the bond market. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.59% from 4.53% late Friday. European markets were mostly lower, while markets in Asia gained ground. Wall Street has several other economic reports to look forward to this week. On Tuesday, the U.S. will release its November report for sales of newly constructed homes. A weekly update on unemployment benefits is expected on Thursday. Markets in the U.S. will close at 1 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday for Christmas Eve and will remain closed on Wednesday for Christmas.

Portland and Falmouth took home gold footballs Saturday after posting state championship victories at Fitzpatrick Stadium in Portland. In the Class A game, Portland quarterback Louis Thurston ran for two touchdowns and passed for two more to help the Bulldogs overpower Thornton Academy of Saco 35-14. The win avenged last year’s loss to the Trojans in the title game. Portland finished the season with a 10-2 record. Thornton, playing in its sixth consecutive Class A championship, finished 9-3. Trailing 7-6 in the third quarter, Portland’s offense ignited behind Thurston, who finished with 119 rushing yards on 13 carries and 126 passing yards, according to the Portland Press Herald . It started with an 81-yard touchdown run by Thurston. He then completed a pass for the 2-point PAT to give the Bulldogs a 14-7 lead. On Portland’s next possession, Thurston completed a 64-yard TD pass to Aidan McGowan. After Portland recovered an onside kick, Thurston tossed a TD pass to Cordell Jones to make it 28-7. The teams traded touchdowns to account for the final. Thornton Academy was led by Mauricio Sunderland, who had a 21-yard TD run and gained 115 yards. In the Class B game, Falmouth’s Indi Backman and Gio Guerrette ran for touchdowns and quarterback Tres Walker threw for a score to lead the Navigators to a 26-13 victory over Kennebunk. Falmouth finished the season 11-0 with the victory which marked its first state title. Defending state champion Kennebunk finished 10-1. Falmouth jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the first half only to see Kennebunk lineman Calvin Johnson intercept a Walker pass and return it 15 yards for a touchdown to pull the Rams within 14-6, according to Centralmaine.com Peter Kearns of Falmouth kicked a 35-yard field goal to make it 17-6 at halftime. Kearns punctuated a Falmouth drive by kicking another 35-yard field goal to start the second half making it 20-6. Kennebunk’s Jaiden Homa returned the ensuing kickoff 88 yards for a touchdown to pull the Rams within 20-13. But Falmouth countered when Guerrette scored on an 80-yard run to give the Navigators a 26-13 lead.
GOP Bathroom Battle: Cannabis Advocate Nancy Mace Will 'Stand In The Way Of Any Man' Who Tries To Get Into Women's RoomA global wealth tax should pay for climate reparation, leading French economist Thomas Piketty has said. Piketty, who co-authored a paper suggesting that India should impose a wealth tax on the ultra-rich to tackle inequality and create fiscal space for investments in the social sector, told ET's Deepshikha Sikarwar in an interview that he expects India to take the lead to solve not just its problem but also that of the rest of the world. Edited Excerpts: How do you view the G20 declaration on effectively taxing ultra-high-net-worth individuals in the backdrop of issues you have been raising? I regret that India has not been pushing with Brazil for this global tax on billionaires and it's a pity because India needs more tax justice. But the rest of the world also needs India to participate in this discussion now. When I wrote 'Capital in the 21st century' and published it 10 years ago proposing a global wealth tax, everyone said this will never happen. Now, when I see that the G20 governments were seriously discussing the global wealth tax, this makes me feel that things can change. I count on a lot of countries from the Global South to push in this direction because I think global wealth tax is not just a way to help each country tax its own billionaires, it's also a way to redistribute the tax revenues all over the world.I think countries like India and more generally, countries in the Global South are going to suffer enormously from climate change. We live in an era where the issue of climate reparation and of course colonial reparations are sort of mixed. But just the climate reparation itself is a very big issue and I think a global wealth tax should also be a way to pay for that. The bottom line is the minimal tax on billionaires should generate revenue that should then be distributed to all countries, not in proportion to their number of billionaires, but in proportion to their population and exposure to climate change.Is this an easy or a simple discussion to have? No, this is going to be a very complicated discussion. But I think in the end if the countries in the Global South push in this direction, this can change the global distribution of power. I'm expecting a lot from India not just to solve the problem of India, but also to help the rest of the world solve the problem of the world. How is technology, especially AI, going to impact intra-country and cross-country inequality? If we do it by privatising knowledge, by privatising basically all the information that has been produced by humans in books, articles and making it a new territory for private appropriation, it would be catastrophic in terms of inequality. This is a little bit of what's being done now.The kind of application we are talking about for AI are all driven by the desire to create sort of new private property rights on things which have been publicly produced by other people, typically journal articles, books. People doing AI algorithms, they don't even need to make public what they used. And they have managed to convince some public authorities that all their algorithms are so complicated and they cannot disclose what they have used. We need to build new nuclear plants everywhere to feed electricity to make our algorithm work. It looks like a nightmare future to me.

What we see today is basically the breakdown of neoliberalism. I think the 2008 financial crisis and the Covid crisis have shown that market deregulation is not going to solve everything. Now the question is, what comes next? One solution is a form of narrow nationalism, which is a little bit way Trump is doing. (Prime Minister Narendra ) Modi is also doing that in a very different manner. I think neonationalism, especially of the Trump kind, is not going to solve any of the social environmental problems. We will have to build some kind of new social democracy for the 21st century. This is where we are back to the Global South. So we are back to India, given Trump, given all the political difficulties in Europe. I think the fact that the initiative in the G20 came from Brazil is in itself interesting and to me is potentially informative of where the political challenge could come in the future. Despite being a labour-intensive country, India's businesses opt for capital solutions. How can this be addressed? This partly has to do with the tax system. In short, labour should be taxed less than capital. And if you do the opposite, which is that if you exempt from tax wealth accumulation and capital accumulation, you will favour very capital-intensive choices. So that part of the answer has to do with the more balanced tax system. We also need to change the governance of corporations.There is a view here that rapid economic growth can address inequality...That's not something we see in history. What we see in history is that the reduction of inequality comes from changing policies and changing institutions. If you don't have a more progressive tax system, social security, or public services, you don't see any example of a country that was able to reduce inequality just waiting for growth to do that. Greater financialisation of the economy is also seen as an issue impacting inequality here... Those who have very little savings and wealth to begin with find it very difficult to start accumulating and are very often hit by inflation. We need some saving vehicles, which allow the poor to get some protection (from inflation) and get some positive real return. In the long run, we will need some kind of redistribution of inheritance. It's good to have a basic income, but I think basic inheritance in the long run should be part of an ideal system. There are other ways to do it-land reform or loans to access property. Policymakers in India have questioned your report. You are meeting some during this visit. Would you be able to convince them on some of the findings and recommendations? I'm trying to convince them. What I'm trying to tell them is first, please release more data. We know we have less information about income tax calculation today in India than what we had 50 years ago. Instead of just criticising the work we've done, please help us get more data. Even with the very imperfect data, we can be sure of one thing, that India is not an equal country. Is taxation the only way to tackle this? No, it's not but it's necessary if you have only 13-14% of GDP in tax revenues. Nominations for ET MSME Awards are now open.

(You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel )NEW YORK (AP) — No ex-president had a more prolific and diverse publishing career than Jimmy Carter . His more than two dozen books included nonfiction, poetry, fiction, religious meditations and a children’s story. His memoir “An Hour Before Daylight” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2002, while his 2006 best-seller “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” stirred a fierce debate by likening Israel’s policies in the West Bank to the brutal South African system of racial segregation. And just before his 100th birthday, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation honored him with a lifetime achievement award for how he wielded “the power of the written word to foster peace, social justice, and global understanding.” In one recent work, “A Full Life,” Carter observed that he “enjoyed writing” and that his books “provided a much-needed source of income.” But some projects were easier than others. “Everything to Gain,” a 1987 collaboration with his wife, Rosalynn, turned into the “worst threat we ever experienced in our marriage,” an intractable standoff for the facilitator of the Camp David accords and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. According to Carter, Rosalynn was a meticulous author who considered “the resulting sentences as though they have come down from Mount Sinai, carved into stone.” Their memories differed on various events and they fell into “constant arguments.” They were ready to abandon the book and return the advance, until their editor persuaded them to simply divide any disputed passages between them. “In the book, each of these paragraphs is identified by a ‘J’ or an ‘R,’ and our marriage survived,” he wrote. Here is a partial list of books by Carter: “Keeping Faith: Memoirs of a President” “The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East” (With Rosalynn Carter) “Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life” “An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections” “Turning Point: A Candidate, a State, and a Nation Come of Age” “Always a Reckoning, and Other Poems” (With daughter Amy Carter) “The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer” “Living Faith” “The Virtues of Aging” “An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood” “Christmas in Plains: Memories” “The Hornet’s Nest: A Novel of the Revolutionary War” “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” “Faith & Freedom: The Christian Challenge for the World” “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” “A Remarkable Mother” “Beyond the White House” “We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work” “White House Diary” “NIV Lessons from Life Bible: Personal Reflections with Jimmy Carter” “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power” “A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety”Elon Musk uses X to push his preferred political picks.

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has urged the young generation, particularly the Lateef Jakande Leadership Academy (LJLA) Fellows, to remain focused, use the opportunity given to them to share their thoughts and ideas, and be strong-willed even at their lowest ebb, to break barriers. He noted that the Academy is about developing leadership skills and creating opportunities for the younger generation to enhance the future of the country. Governor Sanwo-Olu spoke on Monday when he hosted the second cohort of 30 Fellows of the Lateef Jakande Leadership Academy in a Fireside chat held at the Lagos House, Ikeja. The governor while answering questions from the Fellows, said that technology plays a critical role in information dissemination and in other sectors, making the world a global village with better choices and opportunities. He said the inspiration for the establishment of the Academy came following the appreciation of the developmental strides of the late first civilian Governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, in critical sectors, particularly in the area of education, transportation, and housing, among others. The governor said that he hosted the fellows inside the State Executive Council Chamber for them to feel the pulse of the Chamber, noting that it is good for the young leaders to have access to where the decisions about the governance of Lagos is taken. Also speaking, the Executive Secretary of the Lateef Jakande Leadership Academy, Ayisat Olabimpe Agbaje-Okunade, commended Governor Sanwo-Olu for his commitment to the Academy, which, according to her, has sharpened the leadership skills of the Fellows. The Fellows during the event assured Governor Sanwo-Olu that they will not disappoint him and the state government, for investing so much on them.Pep Guardiola’s side avoided the indignity of a sixth successive defeat in all competitions and looked on course for a welcome victory thanks to a double from Erling Haaland – the first from the penalty spot – and a deflected effort from Ilkay Gundogan. Yet Guardiola was left with his head in hands as Feyenoord roared back in the last 15 minutes with goals from Anis Hadj Moussa, Sergio Gimenez and David Hancko, two of them after Josko Gvardiol errors. Arsenal delivered the statement Champions League win Mikel Arteta had demanded as they swept aside Sporting Lisbon 5-1. Arteta wanted his team to prove their European credentials, and goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Gabriel, Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard got their continental campaign back on track in style following the 1-0 defeat at Inter Milan last time out. A memorable victory also ended Sporting’s unbeaten start to the season, a streak of 17 wins and one draw, the vast majority of which prompted Manchester United to prise away head coach Ruben Amorim. Paris St Germain were left in serious of danger of failing to progress in the Champions League as they fell to a 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. Kim Min-jae’s header late in the first half was enough to send PSG to a third defeat in the competition this season, leaving them six points off the automatic qualification places for the last 16 with three games to play. Luis Enrique’s side, who had Ousmane Dembele sent off, were deservedly beaten by Bayern who dominated chances and possession. Elsewhere, Atletico Madrid were 6-0 winners away to Sparta Prague, Julian Alvarez and Angel Correa each scoring twice whilst there were also goals from Marcos Llorente and Antoine Griezmann. Barcelona ended tournament debutants Brest’s unbeaten start with a 3-0 victory courtesy of two goals from Robert Lewandowski – one a penalty – and Dani Olmo. Lewandowski’s first was his 100th Champions League goal, only the third man to reach the mark after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. A Castello Lukeba own goal saw Inter Milan go top of the standings with a narrow 1-0 win over RB Leipzig at San Siro, whilst Bayer Leverkusen were emphatic victors against Red Bull Salzburg, Florian Wirtz scoring twice to move Xabi Alonso’s side into the automatic qualification places. Atalanta continued their strong start, albeit whilst conceding a first goal in Europe this season in a 6-1 win away to Young Boys, whilst Tammy Abraham scored the decisive goal as AC Milan beat Slovan Bratislava 3-2.
Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott reacts with his players during the first half of an NFL football game against the Houston Texans, Sunday, Oct. 6, 2024, in Houston. (AP Photo/Eric Gay) AP Ryan Talbot | rtalbot@nyup.com The Buffalo Bills were not in action in Week 12. Buffalo (9-2) will return to action on Sunday night when they host the San Francisco 49ers (5-6). The Bills are perfect coming off of their bye week under Sean McDermott, but the team will be tested on Sunday Night Football against a 49ers team that is better than their record. Before looking ahead to their Week 13 matchup, here’s a look at where the Bills currently sit in various national power rankings as well as analysis from the sites. Offense ranking: 3 Defense ranking: 10 Special teams ranking: 18 Currently riding a six-game winning streak, the Bills’ FPI rankings reflect just how well this team is performing despite dealing with injuries and changes on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Josh Allen and the offense are second in points margin per game (9.6), and the team leads the league in turnover margin (14). There are still some areas to monitor, as reflected in Tyler Bass being 25th in field goal percentage (86.4%) and missing four extra point attempts so far. My friend and fellow Power Ranking enthusiast Dan Hanzus over at Heed the Call is very much against the bye week drop for teams. I’m for it within reason. I would say if this iteration of the Power Rankings had a final poll of the season I probably would have left Buffalo at No. 2. But we’re talking about a living, breathing entity and right at this very second I think the Eagles could beat almost any team in the NFL. Will I feel differently next week? Almost certainly. Their next three games are against NFC opponents, so losing one – at Detroit on Dec. 15? – won’t hurt the Bills too badly in the tiebreaker department, especially as they try to get better in the team health department. It’s the annual Chris Berman Super Bowl prediction from pretty much every year of the 1990s, when the 49ers come to town. The Bills could be getting them at the perfect time. The Bills had to be rooting hard for the Panthers on Sunday. They’re going to need a Chiefs loss at some point to get the No. 1 seed, and Kansas City flirted with it on Sunday. All Buffalo can do is keep winning and hope some close game doesn’t go the Chiefs’ way. They went into their bye having scored 30 points or more in five straight games. This is one team that has to hope the bye didn’t slow them down. Buffalo got to sit back on its Week 12 bye with a 9-2 record, having won six straight, culminating with a big win over Kansas City. Part of the Bills’ bye-week viewing likely included the Chiefs’ struggles to put the Panthers away, which had to make the week of rest even better. Buffalo all but has the AFC East wrapped up, and it still has a puncher’s chance to wrestle away the AFC’s top seed from Kansas City, thanks to the head-to-head win and a stretch run that is far easier than the Chiefs’. Buffalo will come out of the bye with a home game against the suddenly sinking 5-6 49ers. There also are games left against the Rams, Jets and Patriots (twice), as well as a showdown against the Lions in Detroit that could serve as a Super Bowl sneak peek. All told, the Bills are in great shape, and they appear to be getting a little healthier, too. There’s nothing better than hitting the bye week after a huge win. That’s how things worked out for the Buffalo Bills, who knocked the Kansas City Chiefs from the ranks of the unbeaten. Quarterback Josh Allen is a legitimate MVP candidate at this point in the season. But Bills legend Buce Smith told TMZ Sports that individual accolades aren’t as important as the ultimate goal—a trip to New Orleans in February for Super Bowl XLIX. “Josh has my [MVP] vote thus far,” Smith said. “He needs to finish strong, but keep in mind, winning the MVP but not having an opportunity to play and win in a Super Bowl, I just look at that as, obviously a personal statistic is always great to have, but you want to have that opportunity to go to the Super Bowl and become the MVP in the Super Bowl, win the Super Bowl. All of those things that make history, and I think this gives us a great shot. What took place [against the Chiefs] showed a lot of character about this team.” Analyst’s Take Perhaps the most impressive part about Allen’s play this year is that he hasn’t really had a true go-to receiver—yes, Buffalo traded for Amari Cooper, but he’s still acclimating to his new home. Allen has spread the ball around, running back James Cook is playing well and Buffalo’s defense is steadily improving. The Bills haven’t lost since all the way back in Week 5, but the team faces a challenging three-game stretch post-bye—home against San Francisco, at the Rams and then a trip to Ford Field for a potential Super Bowl preview.

A MECHANIC bought a £13,000 Bentley — then learned it was once owned by Bullseye’s Jim Bowen. Joe Hewes, 31, had no idea of the burgundy R Turbo's link to the legendary TV host. He spotted the 1997 motor for sale on eBay and was so taken by it he offered the full asking price without even seeing it. The rare motor was top of the range for its time and came complete with walnut dinner trays, sheepskin carpets and heated seats. Joe, who buys and restores tanks, told The Sun: "I wanted something different to drive around in and have always loved Bentleys. "They're a beautiful car with a classic shape and not so expensive these days. READ MORE ON JIM BOWEN "I went onto eBay and saw this one and just had to have it. "I offered the full asking price on the condition that the owner drive it to the farm. "If he agreed, I could be fairly confident that the car was still in good working order - and he was good to his word. "He drove it all the way here and then told me it came with an added bonus - that it was owned by Jim." Most read in Motors YouTuber Joe, of Market Harborough, Leicestershire, now uses it for trips out with pals and his pet dog. He added: "The guy who sold it handed me the keys and then left with his BFH (Bus Fare Home)." Bowen , whose other catchphrases included "Super, smashing, great", hosted Bullseye from 1981 to 1995. In its heyday it was watched by up to 20 million viewers. The show is being revived this Christmas - with Andrew Flintoff taking over the presenting role made famous by Bowen . The telly special will even feature darts sensation Luke Littler as a guest star. Joe said: "I was too young to remember Bullseye but I've watched a few old episodes with my mum and dad. "They loved it back in the day and can't believe I've now got Jim's car. "I always wanted a Bentley and now I've got one that belonged to a TV legend."Bangladeshis spend $4b annually for healthcare abroad
