An ******* ysis of recent filings from American politicians shows that Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and Boston Scientific (NYSE: BSX) saw an uptick in purchases from notable politicians. Rep. Gilbert Ray Cisneros, Jr. (D-CA) bought Boston Scientific shares, according to a filing earlier this month. The trade was made on August 18, 2026. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) also bought the stock twice, on August 3 and August 10, 2026, according to a filing filed on September 4, 2026. Neither politician sold Boston Scientific shares in the same period. Cisneros and Khanna were also the two buyers of Accenture shares in July and August.
This is based on data from Quiver Quantitative, a platform that tracks congressional stock trades from politicians.
Let's focus on BSX in this article.
BSX is down about 50% so far this year amid a cyberattack that disrupted manufacturing, order processing and shipments, forcing the company to withdraw its previous third-quarter and full-year outlook. Bulls say the market has priced in too severe an outcome. By Sept. 8, the company said its major distribution centers were shipping at or above normal levels, sterilization facilities were operating, and manufacturing had restarted at most plants. Bulls believe much of the disrupted revenue could be delayed rather than permanently lost as hospitals wait for products, reschedule procedures and the company works through its backlog.
Bulls also point to a business that was still growing. Second-quarter revenue rose 7.5% year over year and organic growth was 7%. Several core franchises delivered double-digit organic growth, including Interventional Cardiology and Vascular Therapies, Interventional Oncology and Embolization, and Neuromodulation.

Former Charlotte Hornets forward Taj Gibson announced his retirement Monday after 17 seasons in the NBA. Gibson was recently rostered by the Memphis Grizzlies but was later traded to the New Orleans Pelicans and was subsequently waived. Gibson spent one season with the Hornets, playing in Charlotte during the 2024-25 campaign. In 37 appearances, the former USC forward averaged 2.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, 0.6 **** ists, 0.2 steals and 0.5 blocks. While with the franchise, Gibson served as a veteran presence and particularly helped recent Hustle Award winner Moussa Diabate in his development.
Throughout his 17-year career, Gibson played 1,012 games, averaging 8.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 0.9 **** ists, 0.5 steals and one block. He made the All-Rookie Team during the 2009-10 season and finished top-10 in Sixth Man of the Year voting three times. Following his retirement, Gibson agreed to join the team that drafted him (Chicago Bulls) as an **** istant coach.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- LAFC spent the first half of Saturday night looking like a team that had forgotten what was at stake.
Sporting Kansas City came into the match with the worst goal difference in MLS and 58 goals conceded through 23 games, yet it was LAFC that looked overwhelmed for long stretches at Sporting Park. By halftime, Sporting had built a 2-0 lead, and although LAFC fought its way back into the match after the break, a late defensive mistake turned what briefly looked like a comeback into a 3-1 loss.
Marc Dos Santos did not have a complicated explanation for what went wrong.
"The problem is in the first half we stayed in the plane," Dos Santos said. "I think in the first half we were still in LA, maybe very disappointing. We defended far from each other, passive. We didn't win any duels in the first half."
It was a startling opening from an LAFC team that had just set a club record with its 13th clean sheet against the New York Red Bulls on Wednesday. Five days later, the Black & Gold were repeatedly exposed by a Sporting attack that had been among the league's least productive.

LeBron James has faced criticism throughout his basketball career. On Friday, former NBA lottery pick Olden Polynice took aim at LBJ for falling short of a certain statistical feat.
Appearing on SiriusXM NBA Radio, Polynice (who was drafted eighth overall by the Chicago Bulls in 1987) gave James his props but proceeded to chastise the 22-time NBA All-Star.
"I love LeBron. I really do. I think he's one of the greatest ever… But, at the same time, I can still be critical of him on some things. One in particular: I thought LeBron should have averaged a triple-double way before Russell Westbrook. That's my personal opinion."
Polynice, who transitioned to coaching after playing 15 seasons in the NBA, went on to make an explosive claim about LBJ's career.
"Believe it or not, this is going to be the weirdest thing ever uttered. I believe LeBron James underachieved."

If you think Army is going to run over, around and through the South Florida defense the way the Black Knights did against Bryant in week one, think again.
There were a lot of positives to draw from as Army rolled up a school-record 648 yards of total offense and 569 rushing yards on the way to a 59-3 victory over Bryant. With a rout in progress, Army went deep into its bench and utilized 16 different ball carries, including three quarterbacks.
South Florida is not Bryant. The Bulls feature a defensive front that averages 6-foot-3, 293 pounds per man (Major Dillard is 330 pounds at nose, Asani Redwood is 300 at tackle and Michael Williams is 250 at end), compared to the Bryant squad that averaged 30 pounds less. Jump to the linebackers, and USF features a group that averages 6-3, 233 pounds, more than a dozen pounds heavier than the similar Bryant unit. You can also expect South Florida's defenders will be quicker to close off the edges, perhaps cutting off Army's success on the perimeter.
The Bulls held Florida International to 80 yards on 25 carries in a 19-9 win on the evening of Sept 5. FIU did roll up 301 yards of passing, on 62% of completed throws, but run-dominant Army has not been a passing threat for many years.
Based off last week's starting lineup (the Bulls do not release depth charts to the media), the South Florida defense fields nine starters who transferred in from other Division I schools. Linebackers C.J. Hicks (Ohio State), Grayson Howard (South Carolina and Florida) and Sam Robinson (Rutgers) played Power 4 ball, as did Redwood (West Virginia) up front. Corner Teddy Foster (Florida) and 'Star' Amanio Fortenberry (Kansas State) help anchor the secondary.

Solana (SOL) has been trading relatively range-bound lately, but bulls have managed to defend the $100 psychological threshold ahead of the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision.
The macroeconomic backdrop continues to be challenging for cryptocurrencies, as inflation in the United States is nearly 200 basis points higher than the central bank's target.
Odds of a rate hike in September have now jumped to 62%, up from a recent low of 50%. Meanwhile, the Treasury Department's decision to triple its bond buybacks did little to change the market's cautious attitude.
As a result, the latest crypto rally has stalled, with SOL experiencing a mild 0.7% advance in the past 7 days.
However, an on-chain metric seems to be indicating that a massive price move is about to take place based on historical patterns.

On September 8, 2026, GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE) agreed to buy Consolidated Precision Products (CPP) for $11.75 billion. The acquisition marks the company's largest bet yet on precision engine castings, a constraint that has been capping GE's growth. Trading already at roughly 40x earnings, the company has now attacked one of its genuine bottlenecks through the deal. But has it paid too much to do it?
Castings, including the superalloy and ******* anium hot-section parts inside the jet engines, have constrained GE's engine production, including programs such as LEAP and GEnx, as well as its high-margin aftermarket. Without these castings, the company can neither build nor service its engines. If the acquisition closes, the company will gain access to CPP's 20-plus plants and about 6,600 workers, which are essential for making those components. The deal would therefore enable GE to control the constraint as well as defend its margins. CEO Larry Culp characterized the move as securing manufacturing capacity to meet simultaneous demand across commercial engines, aftermarket services, and defense contracts.
The valuation is where bulls should slow down. GE is paying roughly 18x 2027 EBITDA including synergies (26x without synergies). The sellers are private equity firms Warburg Pincus and Berkshire Partners. They have basically offloaded a cyclical business near the peak of the aerospace cycle. This is smart money selling to GE instead of the other way around. The real tell is that GE felt compelled to buy its way past this capacity bottleneck instead of scaling organically, which reveals how tight its prized aftermarket really was. Also, CPP also supplies other major aerospace and defense companies such as Pratt & Whitney, Honeywell, and Lockheed Martin, and through the vertical tie-up, the company invites antitrust scrutiny before it closes in late 2027.
GE's 40x multiple rests on its high-margin razor-and-blade business model that services a huge installed base. And the casting supply shortages quietly constrain this aftermarket. Hence, more than merely fixing a supply chain issue, the CPP acquisition defends the company's high margin and multiple. Financially, the transaction is accretive to adjusted EPS and free cash flow in the first year, funded through $7 billion in cash alongside newly issued debt. Insider Monkey data shows 113 hedge funds held GE in Q2 2026, down modestly from 119 in Q1, reflecting firm institutional positioning. Short interest is just 1.3% of float, below peers like Honeywell International (1.6%). Almost no one bets against it.

Hawthorne waited over two hours to prove to the Florida high school football world that it belongs.
Once the ball kicked off at 9:15 p.m. vs. Miami Northwestern, the Hornets made their statement in their typical fashion.
Through a physical, defensive brand of football that results in a win.
Hawthorne defeated Miami Northwestern 16-12 Thursday night at Annie Mae Phillips Stadium to improve to 4-0 on the 2026 season and hand the Bulls their first loss of the season.
The tone of the game changed drastically after Hawthorne QB and 2025 All-Area Small School Player of the Year Richard Roundtree suffered an ankle injury on the first drive.

Former NFL running back LeShon Johnson has been sentenced to five years in federal prison after being convicted of six dogfighting-related charges, according to a Department of Justice release on Thursday.
Additionally, Johnson — who was in the NFL from 1994-99 and spent time with the Green Bay Packers, Arizona Cardinals and New York Giants — will have three years of supervised release. Plus, he'll have to pay a $30,000 fine.
Johnson was indicted in March 2025 and convicted in an Oklahoma federal court in August of last year. He had been running a large-scale dogfighting ring based in the state since at least 2007, according to the DOJ, which cited trial testimony.
Johnson, 55, previously pleaded guilty in 2004 to Oklahoma dogfighting offenses. Back then, he received a five-year deferred sentence in state court, according to ESPN's Thursday report, which cited Oklahoma court records.
His most recent operation, known as "Mal Kant Kennels," consisted of breeding and selling pit bulls who would fight around the country, with Johnson profiting from the trafficking. The 190 dogs the authorities seized from Johnson's property are the most ever rescued from a single individual in a federal dogfighting case, per the DOJ.

The Austin Spurs announced Thursday the hiring of the 12th head coach in franchise history.
Chris Kent will guide the Spurs' G League team in 2026-27 after serving as ******* istant coach and director of player development at Florida State during the 2025-26 season. Kent helped the Seminoles to an 18-15 finish that included a 10-8 showing in ACC play.
Kent also has experience in the G League, most recently spending two seasons from 2023-25 as an ******* istant coach with the Portland Trail Blazers' Rip City Remix, according to an Austin Spurs press release.
Kent began his coaching career as an intern with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, the former G League affiliate of the Indiana Pacers, from 2013-15 before joining Florida State as a graduate ******* istant. He also served as director of player development at South Florida during the 2017-18 season before joining the Chicago Bulls in 2018 as an intern.
The Bulls promoted Kent to video coordinator in 2019. He spent three seasons in that role before serving as an ******* istant coach with the G League's Windy City Bulls during the 2022-23 season.

The move represents a sharp reversal from the yen's weakness earlier in the summer, when the USD/JPY approached 165 and forced **** anese authorities to intervene in the foreign-exchange market.
The latest appreciation is increasingly being driven by expectations that the Bank of **** an (BoJ) is preparing to raise interest rates at its September meeting, while investors are also reassessing the outlook for US monetary policy. The BoJ is scheduled to meet next Thursday and Friday, with markets now pricing in a high probability of a 25-basis-point increase. More importantly, investors will be looking for guidance on whether the central bank could accelerate the pace of subsequent tightening.
U.S. consumer-price data due on Friday will provide an important signal ahead of the Federal Reserve's September 15-16 meeting. The inflation figures have become particularly significant because the Fed's policy outlook remains unusually divided. Governor Christopher Waller has indicated that he could support keeping rates unchanged if inflation continues to moderate, while Fed Chair Kevin Warsh has stressed that insufficient progress on inflation could warrant tighter policy.
From a technical perspective, the weekly chart points to a clear deterioration in the USD/JPY trend. The pair has broken below its ascending trend structure and is trading beneath both the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen lines of the Ichimoku Cloud index. This suggests that the medium-term bullish structure has weakened. The weekly RSI has also fallen below the neutral 50 threshold and is moving lower, indicating that bearish momentum is becoming more established.
The fundamental backdrop is becoming increasingly challenging for the USD/JPY bulls because the interest-rate differential that supported the yen carry trade for years is gradually narrowing.

With training camp fast approaching, several Central Division teams still have a few questions to answer. Jalen Duren's contract situation is still unresolved in Detroit; Victor Oladipo has been seen as an option for the Chicago Bulls, and the Pistons are even connected to Michael Porter Jr. as a potential future trade target.
The biggest storyline ongoing is Duren's restricted free agency, but there appears to be a little more optimism about that agreement. The Athletic's Sam Amick reported that the financial difference between Duren and the Pistons isn't as big as it was previously believed.
"I mean, as far as the state of affairs, I don't know which way it's going to go. There is a gap. It's not as big as I thought it was before having a few recent conversations. It seems like there's, you know, there's a window here to get something done and put him back in a Pistons jersey."
"I think what's interesting is, like, the QO (qualifying offer) has become such a nuclear option for players and also for teams that it's fair to wonder, like, 'Man, if they can't completely bridge that gap, how do both sides feel about the QO?'" Amick continued. "Because, even from a human standpoint, we, as you guys know, haven't seen a lot of people successfully take that route."
Duren has been seeking more than $40 million a year, and the Pistons have been around $35 million per season. ESPN's Tim MacMahon recently put the Pistons' offer in the ballpark of $180 million over five years. The alternative is Duren accepting the $9.6 million qualifying offer and becoming an unrestricted free agent next season. This has been described as a nuclear option because of the risk it carries for both sides. The Kings do remain an interested party in a sign-and-trade possibility, or even a potential 2027 destination, because they can create the most max cap ******* e then, but the Pistons have reportedly had no interest in a sign-and-trade as of now.

After a few years of watching Walmart (NASDAQ: WMT) crush Target (NYSE: TGT), the pauper has become the prince in 2026. Shares of Target are bullseye-red hot, soaring 68% this year. In the other corner, Walmart is a laggard with a 4% year-to-date decline.
The two retail chains have withstood the test of time. They have raised their quarterly dividends for more than five decades. However, which one is the better buy in September? A case can be made for buying both, but the name I'm going with might surprise you.

When you see a stock outperforming against a rival over the past eight months, you might conclude that Target is growing faster than Walmart. You might also ******* ume that it's trading at a higher earnings multiple or packs a lower yield, given the wide performance gap. You would be wrong on all three counts.

Titans offensive tackle JC Latham wants opposing teams to know they're not going to get away with any cheap shots on quarterback Cam Ward.
Latham said a big part of the offensive line coming together this offseason has been agreeing that they need to play with more fight, which will include going after any opponent who goes after Ward.
"Culture is what you stand for and what you allow," Latham said. "This offseason we all did a moment of self-reflecting of, we want to be the offensive line that we know we can be. We can't be no pushovers, we can't be **** ody's **** , just being completely honest. So all the late hits, all the extra stuff that defenses do, if we want to be what we know we can be, we can't stand for that."
Latham said the **** ans' new coaching staff has told the offensive linemen that they all have to have their teammates' backs.
"If any of us gets into it, we're all getting into it. We're all stepping up," he said. "You just can't go for no bullshit."

Solana (SOL) has gone up by 44% in the past 30 days, and bulls have managed to defend the $100 psychological support in the past few days, as demand seems resilient to macroeconomic woes.
Trading volumes jumped by 64% in the past 24 hours, after the token bounced strongly off the $100 threshold. At $3.5 billion, this level of activity accounts for nearly 6% of the ****** et's circulating market cap.
Last week, after a brief drop to 50%, the odds of a rate hike in September by the Federal Reserve jumped back to 58%, following a better-than-expected jobs report in the United States.
However, President Donald Trump has addressed Fed officials directly, and the rhetoric between the White House and the country's central bank seems to be getting heated.
Trump's administration is pressuring the Fed to lower rates during the next FOMC meeting, but the latest minutes indicate that the Committee is actually leaning toward a rate hike.

Robert De Niro's political reputation took an unexpected turn according to an AI image Donald Trump shared on Truth Social. The post depicted the veteran actor wearing a pro-Trump message, despite De Niro's long record of publicly opposing the president and his administration.
Donald Trump posted the apparently AI-created picture on Truth Social Sunday, showing Robert De Niro holding a red shirt emblazoned with "TRUMP IS MY PRESIDENT." The president added his own jab, writing, "Even this jerk is beginning to get it," while offering no indication that the actor had actually changed his political position (via The Independent).
De Niro has spent decades building one of Hollywood's most respected acting careers. His résumé includes Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas, while his performances have earned him two Academy Awards. Away from the screen, however, he has become equally recognizable for his outspoken opposition to Trump.
That stance stretches back years. Before the 2016 election, De Niro branded Trump a "pig," "punk," and "bulls*** artist." In 2019, he escalated his criticism by calling Trump "evil" and saying he could not wait to see him imprisoned. His latest comments to USA Today last month remained just as blunt.
"I don't even use the word 'hope' anymore," De Niro said of Trump's administration, warning that it could damage America and other parts of the world. "He's just going to destroy not only the country, but other parts of the world. It's insane. That's a big concern of mine, and I think a lot of people now," the actor continued.

USF's defense dictated the game and aided the offense as the Bulls bested Florida International, 19-9, in Brian Hartline's head coaching debut Saturday at Raymond James Stadium.
The difference a year — or more accurately, a massive roster and staff overhaul — can make was clear.
In 2025, the Bulls boasted a high-octane offensive operation. Their lowest scoring effort at Raymond James last season was a 34-point performance in their season-opening win over Boise State, and they entered Saturday having won seven consecutive home games by at least 25 points.
On Saturday, they won by 10 and their longest play went for 14 yards.
The offensive performance was lackluster, but the defense, now led by Josh Aldridge, delivered three turnovers and four fourth-down stops to lift USF to a comfortable victory.

As the calendar flips to September, we're officially in the quiet zone of the NBA year. Not much will go on until the final days of the month. All of the major offseason moves have already happened. Teams across the league enjoy some serenity before the marathon starts back up again.
The Oklahoma City Thunder will enter the 2026-27 season as co-title favorites — alongside the San Antonio Spurs. Even with their offseason departures, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren should keep them in the middle of the ***** le hunt.
With nothing else happening, Thunder Wire will regularly conduct Thunder Mailbags over the remainder of the offseason. In this edition, a social media user asked in the DMs — could Alex Caruso's regular-season role change with so many departures?
The Thunder added Caruso in a rare one-for-one player trade with the Chicago Bulls in June 2024. It was one of two offseason moves made that summer that signaled their readiness to take the next step as a serious ***** le contender. Safe to say the win-now move paid off. OKC won the 2025 NBA championship in his first year there and almost won another this past year.
In those two playoff runs, Caruso has been one of OKC's five most important players. Especially when you compare his pedestrian regular-season numbers. He's averaged 6.6 points on 43.3% shooting, 2.9 rebounds and 2.2 ***** ists in the regular season. He's shot 32.2% from 3. And in the playoffs, those numbers jump up to 9.9 points on 46.2% shooting, 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 ***** ists. He's shot 42.7% from 3.

During the September 1 episode of Mad Money, a caller inquired whether Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) is a buy. In response, Jim Cramer commented:
Okay, this is another one that proves my point. Marvell reported an amazing quarter. What they then said was, "Look, listen, maybe our big win won't be till 2029… It's going to be pushed back." They have an October meeting, beginning of October, their ****** yst meeting. That's going to tell us what's going to happen. I don't feel comfortable until I see what they say before I say just pull the trigger.

Through massive partnerships, including custom silicon work with Google, the company has positioned itself right at the center of the AI buildout. Its data center revenue keeps shattering records because tech giants desperately need its networking gear to keep expensive GPUs from getting bottlenecked. For bulls, these multi-year deals mean steady, dependable growth that can ride out the usual semiconductor boom-and-bust cycles.
Even with great numbers, Wall Street has zero patience for tech stocks when timelines get pushed out. With Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) trading at a steep 50.25x forward multiple, there is no room for slip-ups if margins or execution wobble. As Cramer pointed out, management indicated that the big financial payoff from Google partnership might not arrive until 2029 which complicates things for investors expecting quick returns. Anyone counting on quick gains could face a reality check if customer spending slows down or unexpected hurdles pop up.
Wall Street's smart money is paying close attention to Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) as a practical way to back the AI infrastructure buildout. According to Insider Monkey's database tracking over 1,000 elite hedge funds, 96 hedge funds held positions in the company during the second quarter, up from 79 in the previous quarter, showing clear institutional backing. It is worth noting that the D E Shaw increased its position in Q2 by 658%, as per Insider Monkey. At the same time, short interest sits at just 3.79% of the float, indicating limited skepticism against the stock.

Gold bulls came roaring back in August.
Then sellers showed up right on cue and pushed prices back toward a level buyers were waiting for.
Gold (GC=F) has been trading around one of technical ******* ysis's simplest ideas: the halfway-back mark. After a big move, traders often wait for the price to retrace 50%, because that's where the risk-reward can suddenly get attractive — you can enter near the level and get out quickly if it doesn't hold.
Start with gold's big downswing this year.
Gold futures (GC=F) closed at 5,508.6 on Jan. 29 (1 on the chart below), then fell to 4,048.7 by July 16 (2). The halfway-back level between those two points was 4,778.7, marked by the red dotted line near (3).

Bradford Bulls have signed Widnes Vikings full-back Nathan Connell on a two-year deal from the start of the 2027 season.
The 23-year-old started his career with Salford, where he worked under Bulls head coach Kurt Haggerty, and has scored 20 tries in 26 appearances for the second-tier side this year.
"I'm buzzing to get back into Super League, which was obviously my goal," he told the club website.
"The year at Widnes has been great personally and collectively as a team but I want to get back into that full-time environment, really challenge myself and push myself out of my comfort zone to develop even more as a player."

McLaren and Red Bull have won their appeals against the result of the Monaco Grand Prix after a controversy over multiple incorrect pit-lane speeding penalties.
The victory means Alpine's Pierre Gasly loses the podium he was awarded after an appeal by his French team that overturned two five-second penalties.
Gasly, who finished third on the road, is dropped back to the seventh place he received in the official results.
Alpine, unlike the other teams involved, did not serve the penalties in the race because they believed they had been applied incorrectly.
Red Bull's Isack Hadjar is returned to third place and McLaren's Oscar Piastri fourth, with Racing Bulls' Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad moving up to fifth and sixth.
