S&P 500 Falls 4.4% Thursday as Trump Blames Democrats' Midterm Win

Democrats won the House and Senate on Tuesday, Nov. 3, and the S&P 500 dropped 4.4% on Thursday, its worst day since April 2025. Trump blames the election. Others point to the Iran war, record diesel prices and 3.7% inflation. The first hard test is Jan. 3, when a Democratic Senate takes over and gets a say on Fed nominees.

Cognition Security Chief Alex Stamos Says AI-Driven Hacking Has Pushed Cybersecurity Into a 'Dark Age'

Alex Stamos, chief security officer at Cognition, says AI is helping criminal groups and state actors like Russia and North Korea find and exploit vulnerabilities at the same time, and that the multibillion-dollar security industry as it existed is overdue for disruption. He expects a painful period of adjustment before defenders catch up. An FTI Consulting analysis points the same direction: attackers are moving faster than patch-and-triage playbooks were built to handle.

After the 30-year and 10-year yields crossed 5%, the 5-year has followed, the first time it has been there since 2007. U.S. REITs fell 0.56% on Nov. 6. Property owners now face higher borrowing costs while safe bonds pay more than they have in nearly two decades.

Chinese E-Bike Makers Look Abroad as Fuel Prices Stay High

Gaza Media Office Says Rain Flooded 70,000 Tents in 12 Hours; Five Hurt in Collapses

A storm that began Friday evening flooded displacement camps across Gaza, and the Hamas-run government media office says 70,000 tents were hit.

Wyden Names Canada Tariffs as First Target of Democrats' Repeal Push, With Trump's Veto Threat Looming

Three days after a midterm sweep that handed Democrats both chambers, Sen. Ron Wyden says repealing the Canada tariffs is the opening move in rolling back Trump's trade agenda, though a repeal still needs a veto-proof two-thirds vote. Trump has said he will 'veto everything,' and what is left of the tariffs rests on laws Congress can only override with legislation.

S&P 500 Fell 4.36% Thursday, Erasing $2.9 Trillion in Market Value, as AI Stocks Sold Off After Democratic Sweep

Two days after Democrats won both chambers of Congress, the S&P 500 dropped 4.36% to 7,353.73 on Thursday, Nov. 5, led by a slide in AI and data-center stocks. The new majority doesn't take power until January 2027, and any sweeping crackdown faces a likely Trump veto, so the immediate fight is over what Senate committee chairs do with subpoena power.

CENTCOM Creates 20-Person Task Force Iron Gate to Target Iran's Land and Caspian Sea Trade Routes

U.S. Central Command announced Task Force Iron Gate on Saturday, Nov. 7, a Tampa-based team of about 20 civilian and military personnel meant to choke off Iran's overland and Caspian Sea supply lines.

A Lancet projection puts direct bacterial AMR deaths at 39 million worldwide between 2025 and 2050.

DataVita says Lanarkshire AI datacentre will be fully grid-served, dropping private-wire renewables plan

DataVita, the company behind a planned AI datacentre development at Chapelhall near Glasgow, now says the site will draw all its power from the National Grid.

The project still carries £202m in National Wealth Fund guarantees, and the company has not said when or whether its proposed wind and solar park will be built.
