Daily round-up of news from the US.
Fixed Income BulletsHomepagemarkets-real-timePolitical RiskCommoditiesPolitical Risk BulletEnergy BulletsBulletPower BulletsMarketsStoryForeign Exchange Bullets

Executive summary:

  • Presidential candidates will spend much of today engaged in commemorations to mark the one-year anniversary of Hamas’ 2023 attack on Israel. Vice President Kamala Harris will deliver remarks at 16:00 ET 21:00 BST, where she is expected to reaffirm her commitment to Israel’s security.
  • Former President Donald Trump will deliver remarks in Florida, where he is expected to blame the Biden Administration for enabling “Iranian-backed proxies” and compromising the “security of our country."
  • The non-partisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget projects that Trump’s fiscal plan is likely to expand the federal government deficit by twice that of Harris’.
  • Harris and Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) are embarking on a multistate media blitz to quell criticism that the ticket has provided fewer press interviews than any other presidential pairing in recent US history. 
  • Trump was joined on stage by billionaire Elon Must for a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday, the site of an assassination attempt on Trump in July. The central message of the rally, that supporters should register to vote, suggests that the Trump campaign may be concerned about turnout.
  • 72% of senior Capitol Hill staffers think Harris will win the 2024 election.
  • The US East Coast is bracing for a second major storm, with Hurricane Milton set to make landfall in Florida on Wednesday.
  • Poll of the Day: Key indicators have shifted in favour of Harris.
