Quick Glance: Trump's Hush Money Trial: Opening Statements Scheduled for Monday
  • The completion of the final jury selection for Donald Trump's hush money trial occurred, with an appellate judge rejecting the former president's latest attempt to stop the case.

  • The accusation against Trump involves a system to conceal negative stories that could harm his 2016 campaign. Trump has pleaded not guilty, asserting the falsehood of the stories.

  • Despite prior failed attempts to delay the trial, a lawyer for Trump argued in court that the jury selection was rushed, but the court denied this claim.

  • Throughout the trial, Trump utilized the prosecution as a political rallying cry, presenting himself as a victim while managing his dual role as both a defendant and a presidential candidate.

Quick Glance: Biden Receives Kennedy Family Endorsements in Philadelphia
  • President Joe Biden received endorsements from at least 15 members of the Kennedy political family during a campaign stop in Philadelphia to undermine Donald Trump and marginalize the candidacy of independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

  • Kerry Kennedy, daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, niece of former President John F. Kennedy, and sister of the current presidential candidate, delivered the endorsements in Philadelphia, calling Biden her hero.

  • The decision to highlight the Kennedy family's support more than six months from Election Day indicates how seriously Biden's team is taking a long shot candidate using his last name's lingering Democratic magic.

  • Biden used the event to keep up the pressure on Trump, emphasizing the importance of the election not for himself, but to keep Trump out, stating the race was significant due to the potential consequences if they lose this election. The Kennedy family endorsements for Biden were hardly a surprise, as prominent members of the Democratic family did not politically align with Kennedy Jr.

Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation
  • Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.

  • Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.

  • Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.

  • Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

Quick Glance: Zuckerberg Surpasses Musk as Third Wealthiest Person Globally
  • Mark Zuckerberg surpassed Elon Musk on Friday to secure the position of the third-richest individual globally, marking the first instance since 2020 where these rival figures have held these ranks.

  • Zuckerberg has seen a $58.9 billion increase in wealth, contrasting with Musk's $48.4 billion decline this year, showcasing the shift from the once popular electric vehicle stock market to the dominance of the Big-Tech sector, particularly in artificial intelligence.

  • The year has been challenging for Tesla stocks, witnessing a 34% decrease, positioning them as the poorest performer in the S&P 500 Index. Conversely, Meta experienced a 49% surge due to robust quarterly results and enthusiasm for the company's AI ventures.

  • The reversal of the wealth gap between Musk and Zuckerberg, with Musk now holding a net worth of $180.6 billion and Zuckerberg $186.9 billion, not only highlights a wealth competition but also a rivalry in the advancement of technologies like social media and artificial intelligence.

Quick Glance: Self-Immolation at Trump Trial in New York
  • During the significant legal proceedings against Donald Trump in New York, a man seemingly set himself on fire in front of the Manhattan courthouse on Friday. The incident occurred precisely at the moment when the jury composition was being established in the courtroom.

  • This initial criminal case against a former US President revolves around an alleged hush money payment to former porn star Stormy Daniels, which Trump purportedly attempted to conceal through the manipulation of business records. The verdict is anticipated before the November presidential election, where Trump aims to run against Joe Biden.

  • A pivotal aspect of the Trump trial is the selection of the jury to ensure impartiality. Despite expectations of a longer jury selection process, Judge Merchan is determined to expedite the proceedings.
