Learning Source Unveils Its 2025 Product Catalog: The Future of Career Training Education SolutionsWall Street's main indexes were mixed at the start of a holiday-shortened week on Monday, after a stopgap government funding bill averted a partial shutdown and investors braced for a slower pace of rate cuts from the U.S. central bank next year. The United States Congress passed spending legislation early on Saturday, minutes after the funding expired, which could have disrupted everything from law enforcement to national parks ahead of the busy Christmas travel season. At 09:45 am ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI fell 132.48 points, or 0.32%, to 42,704.92, the S&P 500 .SPX gained 1.04 points, or 0.01%, to 5,931.36, and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC gained 57.63 points, or 0.31%, to 19,630.23. Most heavyweight megacap and growth stocks gained, with Nvidia NVDA.O adding 1.6% and Meta Platforms META.O up 1.4%, buoying the S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq. Apple's AAPL.O market capitalization stood at $3.84 trillion as the world's most valuable company inched closer to the $4 trillion milestone. Invest wisely: Best online brokers Trading volumes are expected to thin, with U.S. stock markets closing early on Tuesday and shutting for Christmas on Wednesday. "It's a Monday with very few catalysts to drive (broad market) sentiment, and we're going to have low volume, likely volatile trading as we work our way out of this year," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist, B Riley Wealth. After a solid run since the November presidential election, Wall Street's rally hit a bump this month, especially after the U.S. Federal Reserve forecast just two 25-basis-point rate reductions for 2025 — down from its September view of four cuts — and raised its annual inflation outlook. Money markets expect roughly two 25-bps reductions in 2025, which would bring the benchmark rate to a range of 3.75% to 4.0%, from about a 3.50 to 3.75% range two weeks ago. "We would rather have the Fed cut fewer times in a strong economy, than have to cut more times in a weakening economy," Hogan said. Markets are also entering a historically strong period for U.S. stocks. Since 1969, the last five trading days of the year, combined with the first two of the following year, have yielded an average S&P 500 gain of 1.3% — a period known as the "Santa Claus Rally", according to the Stock Trader's Almanac. Qualcomm's QCOM.O shares rose 2.8% after a jury found its central processors are properly licensed under an agreement with UK-based Arm Holdings ARM.O. Shares of Arm, which has vowed to seek a fresh trial, fell about 5%. Shares of Rumble RUM.O jumped 41.5% after the video-sharing platform said it has received a strategic investment of $775 million from cryptocurrency firm Tether. Eli Lilly LLY.N gained 1.6% after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the drugmaker's weight-loss treatment, Zepbound, for obstructive sleep apnea. Shares of sleep apnea device makers ResMed RMD.N and Inspire Medical INSP.N fell 4.1% and 3.1%, respectively. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 1.77-to-1 ratio on the NYSE, and by a 1.3-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 posted two new 52-week highs and one new low, while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 26 new highs and 43 new lows.

Chandigarh: Accusing the political parties of indulging in "one-upmanship to score brownie points and not being serious" about saving the life of Jagjit Singh Dallewal , Punjab BJP chief Sunil Jakhar on Monday called for "sincere efforts" to save the farmer leader who has been on fast unto death for the last 28 days. Addressing a press conference at his residence in Panchkula, Jakhar said although he was personally opposed to the protesting farmers' demand for a legal guarantee on the minimum support price of their produce, those in touch with Dallewal should tell him that his "anshan" had achieved the desired result, with the Supreme Court taking cognisance of the matter. Jakhar has maintained that the MSP "was not in the interest of Punjab". "Farm leaders like Sarwan Singh Pandher should tell Dallewal that the target was achieved with the Supreme Court taking note of it," said Jakhar, adding that political leaders were "playing with the life of Dallewal" for a "photo op". Asked whether he could go and convince Dallewal to end the fast unto death, Jakhar said: "I am more than willing to go if his life is saved by doing so. But, I will not go for a photo op." Claiming that not all factions of farm unions were on the same page in the ongoing protest, Jakhar said: "Those who led the earlier morcha do not agree with the demands in the ongoing protest." First all of them should unite, said the senior leader. "Among the leaders who went to see him, not even one person asked Dallewal to end the fast. I want to make an appeal to all the political leaders and others to leave everything aside and first talk about saving the life of Dallewal," he added.

Among the loudest voices pushing this argument are far-right activist Laura Loomer , and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon . In contrast, the Silicon Valley “tech bro” contingent led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy , which backed his election, wants better legal immigration routes such as the H-1B program to fill skills gaps in key sectors such as engineering, science, and technology. Yesterday afternoon, the president-elect came out in support of Musk and the latter argument, saying he had always been a “believer” in the program and had employees at his properties in the country on H-1B visas. During the campaign and in his first term he had been against it , so the about-face has confused some of his core supporters. This schism in MAGAworld, before Trump even re-enters the White House, is awkward leaving Fox News tip-toeing through something of a minefield, as Mediaite reported. Co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy noted that the president-elect coming out in favor of the H-1B visa “left a lot of people confused.” Trying to rationalize support for skilled worker visas, her colleague Charlie Hurt remarked: “The idea of having a program that allows an Elon Musk to come into the country, I don’t think anybody has a problem with that, and certainly Donald Trump doesn’t have a problem with that. The problem with the program is that it’s been so abused and turned into a system where it is designed for big tech employers to get, maybe not cheap labor, but cheaper labor.” Will Cain, who co-hosted with the two, added: “We’re not an algorithm. We’re not a company. We are a country. We’re a nation. We are a people. And that purpose of that nation is to serve Americans.” Campos-Duffy then suggested that tech CEOs such as Musk might have to pay American tech workers more attractive wages and pay themselves a little less if the talent pool was smaller through a more restrictive immigration policy. “If you limit those visas and only bring in the Elon Musks and the really exceptional people, what you’re going to see is that there’s a tighter market and the wages will have to be — you’ll have to pay wages that young math students like my son-in-law, who is married and has to support a family, would want to be part of,” she said. “And that may mean, guys, guess what? Fox News alert! It may mean that big tech bosses make a little less money and they have to pay their workers a little better. I think all of us would be okay with that.” Sounding remarkably Campos-Duffy added that the federal government should invest in educational opportunities in underserved communities to train the next generation to take the jobs currently being filled by skilled immigrants. As deft as the presenters might have tried to be in tackling what is a thorny issue, Steve Bannon was having none of it. The former Trump adviser and host of the WarRoom podcast took to the social media platform Gettr, and referencing the Mediaite article, wrote: “Stop with the ‘Tip-Toe’...” “Choose a Side: Either Stand with American Citizen Workers or with Globalist Elitist Tech Oligarchs Who Feast on Foreign Indentured Servants ...Simple.”PHILADELPHIA — Saquon Barkley normally would have tossed his game-used cleats to the kid who asked for the pair as the star Philadelphia Eagles running back ran off the field and back to the locker room. Sorry, kid. Not today. Barkley kept his mucked-up cleats for good reason — he became the ninth running back in NFL history to top 2,000 yards rushing in a season, reaching the milestone with a 23-yard run in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 41-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys. That rush gave Barkley 2,005 yards with one game left and stuck him exactly 100 yards from Eric Dickerson's record of 2,105, set in 1984 for the Los Angeles Rams. Barkley left the game after the run that got him past 2,000, finishing with 167 yards on 31 carries. “We definitely knew what the number was to at least get 2,000,” Barkley said. “We weren't leaving this field without at least accomplishing that. That's not the words from me, that's the words from the guys up front.” Whether Dickerson likes it or not — and the Hall of Famer made clear last week he does not — Barkley is coming for the record next weekend against the New York Giants. Well, maybe. The Eagles have clinched the NFC East and least the No. 2 seed in the conference, making that game mostly meaningless. Coach Nick Sirianni could opt to rest Barkley to protect him from injury ahead of the playoffs. “Whatever his decision is, I'm all for it,” Barkley said. “If his mindset is, go out and try it, we'll go out and try it. If his mindset is, let's rest and get ready for this run, I'll all for it, too.” Sirianni simply said, “we'll see.” His backward hat askew, Barkley laughed when asked if he wanted to break the record in a delicious twist against his old team. “I'm not overly trying to go get it,” Barkley said. “I'm not scared to. I would love to. But at the end of the day, we've got bigger things we're focusing on.” Barkley gets a shot at the record thanks to a 17th game of the season that Dickerson and the NFL did not have in 1984. Derrick Henry was the last running back to exceed 2,000 yards. He had 2,027 for the Tennessee Titans in 2020. Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson ran for 2,097 yards in 2012, the second most in an NFL season. Barkley, who left the Giants to sign a three-year deal with the Eagles for $26 million guaranteed, also set the NFL mark Sunday for most yards rushing in a player's first season with a new team. He ran for 176 yards and a touchdown in his first career game against the Giants. “I didn't come here or sign here just to rush for 2,000 (yards) and break a record,” Barkley said. “I'm here to do something special.” Barkley was drafted out of Penn State with the No. 2 overall pick in 2018. He was an instant success with New York and ran for 1,307 yards his rookie season. Barkley ran for 5,211 yards and 35 touchdowns and had 288 receptions for 2,100 yards and 12 TDs in six years with the Giants. He hit free agency after the Giants elected not to put a franchise tag on him. “I was in the dark,” Barkley said. “You don't know what's going to happen, you don't know where you're going to be. Everything is kind of up in the air.” His mission is clear — win a Super Bowl and maybe take down Dickerson. Sporting his trademark goggles and Jheri curl, Dickerson had seven straight 1,000-yard seasons in the 1980s, and the Hall of Famer is widely considered one of the best running backs ever. Dickerson finished with 13,259 yards, the ninth most in NFL history. Emmitt Smith holds the career record with 18,355 yards. “I don’t think he’ll break it. But if he breaks it, he breaks it,” Dickerson told the Los Angeles Times . “Do I want him to break it? Absolutely not. I don’t pull no punches on that. But I’m not whining about it. He had 17 games to do it? Hey, football is football.” In 1984, Dickerson topped 100 yards rushing 12 times to break O.J. Simpson’s 1973 record of 2,003 yards rushing in a season. Simpson set his record in 14 games for the Buffalo Bills before the NFL expanded to 16 in 1978. The NFL moved to 17 games in 2021. “The way football is right now, it’s kind of hard to rush for 2,000 yards in 14 games,” Barkley said. "So, whether it’s 16, whether it’s 17, it’s a feat that you can never take away from what I was able to do with the O-line. And only eight other players did it, so it’s a special moment.”
