Kennedy challenges New York residency, jeopardizes his seat at the polls

More news - News 24 hours Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s presidential campaign has hit a major snag after a New York judge ruled that he does not meet the state's residency requirements to appear on the ballot. The decision stems from a legal challenge questioning the validity of Kennedy's New York address, which was critical to his eligibility to run for office in the state. The judge's ruling found that Kennedy's declared New York residence was a "false" address used solely to qualify to vote. Despite Kennedy's claims of maintaining ties to the state, including real estate and tax returns, the court ruled that his primary residence was in California. Kennedy’s campaign has vowed to appeal the decision, calling it a partisan attack aimed at suppressing voter choice. However,...

Wholesale price growth slows in July, easing Fed pressure

Related media - Breaking news Producer prices, a barometer of wholesale inflation, rose modestly by 0.1% in July, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That figure was lower than economists expected and offered some relief to the Federal Reserve as it navigates monetary policy.

While final goods demand prices increased by 0.6%, mainly due to a spike in energy costs, this upward pressure was offset by a decline in services prices. Commercial services and wholesale margins for machinery and vehicles contracted, moderating overall price growth. Moderate inflation data fueled speculation about the potent...
