Trump Suggests Renaming New Mexico ‘New America’ — 2dPresident Donald Trump has floated or shared maps and posts suggesting renaming places such as New Mexico to 'New America,' alongside prior and ongoing actions that rename other geographical names like the Gulf of Mexico to the 'Gulf of America' and Lake Ontario to 'Lake America,' drawing mixed reactions and prompting fact-checks. He has also posted a flag-style graphic labeling strategic waterways, such as the Strait of Hormuz as 'New U.S. Territory,' amid ongoing debate over the seriousness, legality, and diplomatic implications of these moves.

Derek Foss New Mexico has had that name since before the US even existed. This is just silly.

Ishbia reveals riverfront White Sox stadium proposal amid lingering questions — 3dCanal Edge, led by Justin Ishbia, unveiled The Railyards plan for a riverfront mixed-use district along the Chicago River from Roosevelt Road to 18th Street that would include a possible new White Sox ballpark, Northwestern Medicine healthcare facilities, and transit-oriented housing, retail, and offices, with a multi-month feasibility review underway. The proposal has drawn mixed reactions—from policymakers wary of subsidies and community impact to Ishbia’s stated aim of boosting jobs and city vitality, while Reinsdorf retains decision-making control of the Sox and the option years ahead for ownership changes.

Tom Gallagher Reinsdorf still holding the keys makes this whole thing feel like a fancy pitch deck until he actually signs off.

Georgia gas prices hit $3.89 as national average sets Labor Day record — 1dLabor Day gas prices are rising nationwide, with Georgia averaging $3.89 per gallon and Albany among the cheaper metro areas at $3.81, up almost a dollar from last year as travelers hit the road. The national average nears $4.00 per gallon due to elevated crude prices, tight refining capacity, and supply constraints, with regional differences—Savannah at about $3.96 and northwest Georgia around $3.83—reflecting a mixed but generally higher price landscape across states.

Derek Foss Savannah prices are brutal compared to the rest of the state. Refining capacity issues always seem to hit right before a holiday weekend.

Russia and North Korea open first road bridge over Tumen River — 1dRussia and North Korea opened the first border bridge while Moscow ordered the closure of the German consulate and cultural centers, and Tanzania announced the death of President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s husband. Meanwhile, a Australian study finds teens are consuming less news, Gloria Steinem's death prompts mixed reactions, Buddy Holly’s legacy is highlighted on his birth anniversary, and in Georgia authorities pursue pre-trial detention of an animal rights defender amid security services’ actions against others.

Jared Kim Interesting timing, opening this bridge while so many other diplomatic doors are slamming shut elsewhere.

US Payrolls Surge, Fed Rate Hike in Play — 4dAugust payrolls surged around 162,000 with unemployment at 4.1%, though one article cited 93,000 jobs as a sign of slowing momentum, and wage growth cooled to about 3.1% year over year. Market expectations for a September Federal Reserve rate hike remained mixed, with rising yields and divergent views on inflation dynamics shaping investor bets.

Nicole Hardy Wage growth cooling to 3.1% while jobs numbers can't agree with each other tells me nobody really knows what's happening in this economy right now.

German industrial output posts steepest drop in a year amid auto slump — 1dGermany’s industrial production declined 1.1% month-on-month in July, led by a 9.2% drop in automobile output due to multi-week production pauses, while energy generation rose and other manufacturing categories eased; year-on-year, output fell about 1.6%. The May–July period shows a marginal three-month uptick in activity and orders rose in July, underscoring a mixed trajectory as markets weigh ECB policy and broader demand.

Marcus Bell Auto sector production pauses dragging everything down again, but orders rising in July is a decent sign for autumn.

Analysts see recovery potential in Intuitive Surgical and Novo Nordisk amid growth worries — 4dStock picks across a mix of growth and large-cap names show a balance of long-term upside and near-term headwinds: Intuitive Surgical and Novo Nordisk are presented as attractive long-term buys despite recent challenges, while TXN and ODFL face slowing growth and margin pressure, warranting caution on valuation. Additional lists flag mixed signals for Teradata and RUM Group, Allegro MicroSystems and First Watch as high- or mid-duration risks, Twilio and ADM as examples of growth or margin struggles in large-cap names, underscoring the broader theme of weighing quality against price in today’s market.

Jared Kim Intuitive Surgical has been the steady long term compounder for years, short term wobbles don't scare me off that one.

Elena Vasquez Manufacturing hanging in there is the only bright spot here, everything else looks shaky.

Reactions were mixed, with praise from NBA's Adam Silver and notable critics like Stephen A. Smith, alongside ongoing discussions about succession planning and the future direction of the league.

Dana Whitfield Whoever takes over next needs to actually listen to the players from day one, that was the biggest complaint about Engelbert's whole run.
