After presidential race surprise, Argentine economy minister and right-wing populist look to runoff

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:31:37 GMT

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentina’s economy minister and the anti-establishment upstart he faces in a presidential runoff next month began competing Monday to shore up the moderate voters they need.Minister Sergio Massa earned almost seven points more than chainsaw-wielding economist and freshman lawmaker Javier Milei in Sunday’s vote. Most polls had shown Massa slightly trailing, as voters had been expected to punish him for triple-digit inflation that has eaten away at purchasing power and boosted poverty. On Nov. 19 they must choose between Massa, despite the economic deterioration that took place on his watch, or place their hopes in a a self-described anarcho-capitalist who promises a drastic shake-up of South America’s second-largest economy. Milei’s fiery rhetoric and radical proposals — like slashing subsidies that benefit a large swathe of the population and replacing the local currency with the dollar — galvanized die-hard supporters, but cost him ...

Falcons find themselves in a most unusual position – first place in the NFC South

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:31:37 GMT

ATLANTA (AP) — First place.A strange place to be for the Atlanta Falcons.Yep, seven games into an up-and-down season, the Falcons hold the top spot in the NFC South.Never mind that it’s probably the weakest division in the NFL. Considering this team hasn’t had a winning season or made the playoffs since 2017, there were plenty of smiles after an ugly 16-13 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.“We’ll take it,” coach Arthur Smith said after his team improved to 4-3. “We know we’ve got work to do, but happy to get a win.”The Falcons pulled out the victory despite three fumbles by quarterback Desmond Ridder, which cost them at least one touchdown and probably another.“We certainly like to make it hard on ourselves,” Smith said. “But our guys make plays in big moments. We always feel like we got a shot, no matter what happens. It’s a resilient group.”WHAT’S WORKINGAn offseason spending spree directed largely toward the defense had paid big dividends.The Falcons a...

Helping a child with a down payment? Here are some things to know

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:31:37 GMT

The old adage, “Never lend money to friends or family,” is why personal finance advisers recommend any help parents give their adult children in their homebuying efforts be in the form of a gift.But be it a gift, or a loan, there are some things for both parents and their homebuying children to know.Two-in-five first-time homebuyers this year have received some financial assistance for their down payment, according to a LendingTree survey, mostly from parents, including 80% of Gen-Z buyers.For parents who can afford to help, deciding whether the assistance is a gift or a loan is a decision that is entirely a personal one that varies from family to family, based on trust, responsibility and ability to repay. Often, a gift is the better choice.“Because in that case, I think, it can help avoid some bad situations that can arise if someone is not paying you back. That said, if you can negotiate fair terms for a loan that’s not going to break anyone’s back o...

Stock market today: Wall Street drifts in mixed trading as yields swing in the bond market

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:31:37 GMT

NEW YORK (AP) — Wall Street is swinging a bit higher on Monday, continuing a monthslong run where it’s slavishly followed the cue of the bond market.The S&P 500 was up 0.5% in afternoon trading, coming off its worst week in a month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 5 points, or less than 0.3%, as of 1:15 p.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 0.9% higher.Rapidly rising yields in the bond market have been pressuring stock prices since the summer, and they seemed set to climb further. Early Monday morning, the yield on the 10-year Treasury briefly topped 5.02% to touch its highest level since 2007. That helped to torpedo stocks, and the S&P 500 slumped as much as 0.8%.But the 10-year yield eventually eased back to 4.84%, down from with 4.91% late Friday, as oil prices tumbled to take some pressure off inflation. That relaxed the pressure on the stock market and helped send it to gains. Easier bond yields tend to most help stocks of companies promising big...

DENVER (KDVR) — If you like to enjoy a little bit of sun after getting home from work, you might want to savor it while you can. Denver only has a little under two weeks before afternoon sunsets return.You can blame daylight saving time for that. Why Colorado isn't on permanent Daylight Saving Time yet Along with the chore of having to change all the clocks in your house for the second time this year, the end of DST on Nov. 5 will bring the first afternoon sunset of the season.When will the sun set before 6 p.m.?In a somewhat spooky turn of events, Oct. 31 is the first day the sun sets before 6 p.m., according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration solar calculator.However, that doesn't last long.

After that, the sun will set a few minutes earlier every day until early Decem...
