Wall Street tumbles, led lower by chipmakers Nvidia, Intel
Just as the Federal Reserve prepares to reduce interest rates next week, Wall Street suffered a miserable trading day on Tuesday. The markets were led lower largely by tech stocks, specifically the producers of semiconductor chips as Nvidia and Intel fell by nearly 10%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 626 points (1.51%), but the bigger losers by percentage were the Nasdaq Composite, which declined by 577 points (3.26%) for a bad session for tech stocks. The S&P 500 fell 119 points (2.12%).

US files 'terrorism' charges against Hamas

The US unsealed a raft of "terrorism" and other charges against six Hamas leaders on Tuesday related to the armed Palestinian group's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel. The document targets six leaders, accused of "conspiracy to provide material support for acts of terrorism resulting in death" along with six other counts. The charges were filed under seal so the US could be ready to take Haniyeh and the other defendants into custody, a DOJ official said, citing Haniyeh's death and other "recent developments in the region," as reasons for the unsealing.

Trump, Biden share similar 'vacation' times

Republicans continue to attack President Joe Biden for the amount of time he is on vacation during his presidency. Right-wing commentators have posted recent photos of Biden on the beach and claim he is a do-nothing lame duck. While he has been away from the White House, it has been similar to the amount Donald Trump spent away while president, according to lists compiled by some observers. A report says both spent all or part of at least 250 of 853 days at their own properties.
