The DSU-43/B ******* pit Selectable Height of Burst Sensors (C-HOBS) allow crews to adjust the munition's effect to different targets and mission environments. The system will provide enhanced radar-guided performance, advanced sensing features, and manual and ******* pit-selectable burst heights, the company said in a press release.
The production will take place at L3Harris' Cincinnati facility. The order comes at a time when the defense contractor is expanding the output capacity of proximity fuzes and sensors for the U.S. military to support a wartime footing.
Investors should view the C-HOBS contract as evidence of the company's recurring business with the Air Force on precision-guidance electronics. Despite being small in magnitude, such low-risk and steady order flow underpins the bull thesis for the stock.

Chipotle stock dropped 5% Tuesday with no confirmed news behind the move, but remains up 5% for the month, pointing to profit taking not panic.
The CDC confirmed no ongoing consumer risk from the summer salmonella outbreak, and Chipotle stock actually rose while that investigation was open.
Broad benchmarks and QSR peers fell only between 0.5 and 3% on Tuesday, isolating Chipotle's move as stock-specific, with the next real catalyst on October 28.

Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:CMG) stock is down 5% to $35.32 in Tuesday morning trading, a sharp break from a stretch that had the shares grinding higher through the first half of September. The move stands out because it doesn't match a broad tape decline or a food and beverage sector rout of similar magnitude. That forces the question of what specifically is hitting Chipotle today when the peer group is barely giving ground.

The Trump administration has cut or frozen up to $177 billion in federal grants since the president took office for his second term, according to a tracking tool released Wednesday by a pro-democracy nonprofit and a group of researchers and scientists.
The cuts affected all 50 states and the District of Columbia, with health, nutrition, the environment and disaster relief making up the largest share of cuts, the States United Democracy Center and Grant Witness organization found.
Among the grants that were eliminated, frozen or delayed were ones related to maternal health in Michigan, education research in Mississippi and ***** istance to minority farmers in Iowa, the researchers found. California, Texas, New York, Illinois and North Carolina saw the highest amounts of interrupted grant money. The tracking tool is called Lost Funds.
"By bringing thousands of funding disruptions from the Trump administration together in a publicly accessible, verified database, Lost Funds puts the magnitude of their impact on full display," Scott Delaney, co-founder of Grant Witness, said in a statement.
The $177 billion finding represents nearly 10% of federal discretionary spending, the groups said.

Shortly after halftime of their Week 1 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks, the New England Patriots extended their lead to 10-0 and looked to be in a great position to coast to a victory. The Seahawks had lost starting quarterback Sam Darnold to injury, and although the New England offense didn't look great, Seattle had done very little in the first half.
However, the game shifted near the end of the third quarter when the Seahawks cut the lead to 10-3, and the start of the fourth quarter signaled a stretch so brutal that one of its magnitude hasn't been seen in 30 years.
Here's a look at the fourth quarter in a possession-by-possession breakdown:
Patriots: 6 plays, 23 yards - ends in an interception
Seahawks: 5 plays, 67 yards - touchdown

Lyft Inc (NASDAQ:LYFT) is slightly lower this afternoon, down 0.2% at $14.86. Heading for a fifth-straight daily drop, the Uber Technologies (UBER) rival is trading near its late-July lows, sporting a grim 23.3% year-to-date deficit. All may not be lost, however, as this pullback looks to be placing Lyft stock near a trendline with historically bullish implications.
According to Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative ****** yst Rocky White, LYFT shares are within 0.75 of their 126-day moving average's 20-day average true range (ATR), after remaining below it 80% of the time in the past two weeks and in 80% of the last 42 trading sessions.
This signal has occurred five times in the last 10 years, after which Lyft stock was higher one month later 60% of the time, averaging a 9.4% gain. From its current perch, a surge of this magnitude would put the shares back above the $16 area.
Put traders have been circling, per LYFT's 10-day put/call volume ratio at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), which stands higher than 76% of all other readings from the past year. Echoing this, the stock's Schaeffer's put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) of ranks higher than all other readings from the past 12 months. Should this bearish sentiment begin to unwind, it could trigger tailwinds for the shares.
Options are attractively priced as well, per the stock's Schaeffer's Volatility Index (SVI) of 51%, which stands higher than just 18% of all other readings from the past year, implying that near-term option traders are pricing in relatively low volatility expectations.

CNBC's Rick Santelli has ******* yzed countless economic releases during his decades at the network. But the veteran market commentator could barely contain his surprise when the latest U.S. jobs numbers crossed the screen.
"Hold on to your seats, folks," Santelli said (1) during CNBC's live coverage on the morning of Sept. 4. "Nonfarm payrolls for the month of August: up 162,000. That's basically three times what expectations are."

Former Peterborough United and Hull City striker - and Final Score pundit - Aaron McLean gives his five takeaways following Saturday's action in the Championship, League One and League Two.
Russell Martin's Leicester are 17th in League One having only won one of their opening five league matches [Getty Images]
Questions are already being asked about Russell Martin after Leicester fell to a 4-0 defeat by Oxford United at the King Power Stadium. The Foxes are looking for a return to the Championship at the first time of asking after being relegated last season.
McLean: "I think that it's been difficult for Russell to come into a club that over the past couple of seasons has been on a constant decline and there's been a huge turnover of players.
"His biggest challenge is changing the environment and the mindset of the players. He's also at a club where there's huge pressure being in League One. For a club of that magnitude it's unacceptable.

The U.S. power grid is entering a period unlike any it has experienced in decades. Rapid electrification, domestic manufacturing, and the exponential growth of artificial intelligence are reshaping electricity demand. A recent report from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, projects that data centers alone could account for between 9.5% and 15.3% of total U.S. electricity consumption by 2030. More broadly, U.S. electricity demand is projected to grow by approximately 15% to 20% by 2035—roughly 80–110 GW of firm capacity—underscoring the scale of new generation that will be needed. Against this backdrop, executives across the utility, independent power producer, industrial, and technology sectors are making investment decisions that will shape the grid for decades.Safety is foundational to any nuclear project and is subject to rigorous review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). But the commercial and execution risks utilities must weigh extend well beyond safety: reactor design, constructability, supply chain readiness, licensing progress, workforce depth, operability, performance, and reliability.Advanced reactors are often discussed as a single technology class, yet the commercial and execution risks ******* ociated with individual designs differ substantially. As these technologies move toward commercial deployment, evaluating them requires a more comprehensive ******* sment of their technology, deployability, and commercial merits—and, importantly, the extent to which each design reduces or eliminates risk across multiple dimensions over the full project lifecycle. That ******* sment begins with three structural questions.
Capital efficiency is more than the magnitude of overnight capital cost (OCC). It encompasses how effectively capital is deployed and the capital intensity over time—especially before the commercial operation date (COD)—as well as post-COD costs: fuel, refueling outages, major projects and refurbishment, labor and other operations and maintenance (O&M) expenditures, and ultimately decommissioning. OCC offers only a partial view, since financing costs can account for a significant portion of total project cost. A smaller, simpler, faster-to-build design may achieve superior unit economics compared with higher-output designs that initially project a lower $/kW, once financing and schedule are considered. This amplifies the importance of long-lead materials, supply chain certainty and resilience, workforce and learning effects, and constructability in determining overall project cost and capital exposure.Utilities should also examine how fundamental reactor design choices affect both construction and lifecycle costs. Designs with high inherent safety that employ passive safety features—placing the plant into a safe condition through the natural laws of physics rather than relying primarily on active systems or operator intervention—can reduce reliance on multiple trai

As September gets underway, we want to help you stay ahead of the game with our monthly list of stocks to buy and avoid. We've hit the best Dow stock to own in September, but below we're going to take a look at where you might want to avoid putting your money in what historically tends to be the worst trading month of the year.
Below is a list of the 25 worst-performing S&P 500 stocks in September over the last 10 years, per data from Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative ******* yst Rocky White. Among the historical underperformers is Adobe Inc (NASDAQ:ADBE).
According White's data, ADBE averaged a loss of 6.2% over the last 10 years, and has finished higher only twice. From its current perch, a pullback of this magnitude could put the software name back near $271. The stock is already living up to the data, down 1.6% to trade at $288.04 at last check today and looking to snap a three-day win streak.
The stock's recent rebound appears to be losing steam at the $300 level, while long-term pressure at the descending 320-day moving average lingers above as well. Year to date, ADBE is down 17.7%.
Options traders are still buying into the hype, however. This is per the equity's 50-day call/put volume ratio of 2.21 over at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), which sits higher than 82% of readings from the past year. Should this bullish sentiment begin to unwind, it could trigger more headwinds for the shares.

The Auburn Tigers are just days away from opening the 2026 season against the Baylor Bears in the Aflac Kickoff Game in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Tigers would love nothing more than to start the Alex Golesh era with a win, which would be a great start toward building momentum for the rest of the season. However, Auburn is one of two SEC teams facing a Power Five opponent in Week 1, which will provide the Tigers with a great challenge early in the season.
The Tigers and Bears met in Week 1 of the 2025 season, with Auburn taking down home-standing Baylor, 38-24, in Waco. Both teams would go on to finish the season with 5-7 records; however, only one team will begin the season with a new coach.
Auburn fired Hugh Freeze and later hired Alex Golesh, while Dave Aranda gets one more season with Baylor. However, he starts the season on the hot seat, and a win over Auburn would do wonders for his job security. A game of this magnitude could go either way, but here are five reasons why Auburn football could struggle against Baylor on Saturday in Atlanta.
Despite winning last season's game in Waco, Auburn struggled to defend Baylor's passing game. Baylor quarterback Sawyer Robertson passed for 419 yards and three touchdowns against Auburn's quality secondary. This season, Florida transfer DJ Lagway takes over as the starting quarterback for the Bears and is hungry for the chance to prove his worth at the highest level.

A video taken after flash flooding on the border between Nepal and China shows mudslides enveloping multiple buildings as people fled in Gyirong, Tibet, near China's border with Nepal.
The mudslides followed a 4.4-magnitude earthquake which occurred just seven minutes before video captured people sprinting away from the disaster, according to the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ).
Shishir Khanal, Nepal's foreign minister, also suggested that earthquakes could be the cause in remarks to the country's parliament, according to Reuters.

When Salesforce (CRM) reports second-quarter earnings on Wednesday, bullish **** ysts will be looking for management to stick with its guidance for organic revenue growth to reaccelerate in the second half of the fiscal year. Heading into the earnings report, Salesforce stock has gained 33% since June 30 but is still down 21% in 2026.
Software stocks generally have rebounded in July and August, with some investors shrugging off worries over artificial intelligence disrupting the industry.
In Q2 earnings report previews, Wall Street **** ysts have focused on trends in customer contract renewals, the company's acquisition spree since May 2025, continued management turnover, and traction with new AI products. When reporting Q1 financial results, management guided to a revenue growth reacceleration in late 2026.
"We believe the primary driver of upside to the shares from current levels will be led by a re-rating, the magnitude and timing of which will depend on the revenue growth acceleration," said JPMorgan **** yst Samik Chatterjee, in a report.
In Q2, **** ysts project adjusted EPS of $3.28, up 12%, with revenue growing nearly 11% to $11.33 billion.

XRP (XRP) has outperformed all other crypto **** ets in the top 5 with an impressive 50% gain in just 7 days after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released a new regulatory framework for the industry.
Moreover, Ripple was one of the companies invited to the White House for President Donald Trump's crypto summit, a gathering where the head of state affirmed his commitment to get the Clarity Act passed this year.
Trading volumes for XRP have jumped to more $6 billion in the past 24 hours alone after spending months in the freezer. This figure accounts for over 6% of the **** et's circulating market cap, as five consecutive days of gains pulled off a massive short squeeze.
With more than $100 million worth of XRP shorts being liquidated in the past five days alone, this qualifies as one of the most dramatic bloodbaths for bears in the token's history.
The last time we saw liquidations of this magnitude was October 10, back when a flash crash swept the crypto market into its latest bearish cycle. Volatility was quite high at that point, and the market flushed out excessively leveraged shorts as it also evaporated billions in long positions.

Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark had a small altercation during the Indiana Fever's loss to the Dallas Wings on Thursday.
Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers are widely considered by many WNBA fans as the two young superstars fighting to become the face of the league.
Both have been enjoying excellent seasons with their respective teams, who clashed once again on Thursday. The Dallas Wings secured the win, but it was a tight contest.
Emotions always run high in games of this magnitude. And when they boiled over between Bueckers and Clark during the game, it was a moment that made fans take notice.

XRP (XRP) has gone up by more than 6% in the past 24 hours following the release of new rules for the crypto ****** e by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Today's move comes just a few days after XRP managed to successfully stay above the $1 threshold – a key psychological support that needed to hold to prevent a much stronger correction for this altcoin.
Short liquidations spiked to a massive total of $1.70 billion in the past 12 hours, with Bitcoin (BTC) accounting for $1 billion of that total as the token just rose past the $66,000 resistance.
Moreover, Ethereum (ETH) also broke a key psychological and technical threshold at $2,000 that catalyzed the beginning of a bull market on two prior occasions.
Today's move is similar to the magnitudes seen on October 10, back when a flash crash kicked off this bearish cycle.

Shares of Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) traded sharply lower Tuesday morning, falling as much as 4.1%. As of 1:10 p.m. ET, the stock was still down 3.3%.
The catalyst that sent the social media ***** an lower was the start of the company's latest child safety trial.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
A court case with significant implications kicked off today in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The attorneys general from California, Colorado, New Jersey, and Kentucky brought suit alleging that Meta designed its social media platforms to be addictive, contributing to a rising mental health crisis among younger users. The case also alleges that Meta collects data from children under 13 without first obtaining parental consent. In all, 29 states have filed suit against the social media platform. The remaining 25 states will go to trial later.
The verdict in this case could conceivably change the way social media companies do business. The states are said to be seeking damages of $200 billion or more, though Meta suggests the states are looking for damages totaling $1.4 trillion -- the size of the company's market cap. Experts say a judgment of that magnitude is extremely unlikely.

One week out from the earthquake that shook Colombia to its core, Shakira is returning home. On Monday, the singer travels to Chocó, the area that bore the brunt of the magnitude-7.4 quake that struck on August 10 with an epicenter in San José del Palmar. It's a trip she's making not as a performer, but as a Colombian.
Shakira is on her way to Colombia to visit her country as it heals from the impact of the earthquake (@ Matthias Hangst)
According to Vanitatis, Shakira is expected to land around 2:30 p.m. local time and head to a local school, accompanied by the mayor and the governor of the region. Her arrival is scheduled for roughly 3:15 p.m., when she'll spend the day with students, families, and teachers still reeling from the disaster.
The stop is no coincidence: the school sits at the intersection of Shakira's music career and her philanthropic one. It's tied to her Barefoot Foundation, which opened its first school in Quibdó, Chocó's capital, back in 2005. In the two decades since, the foundation has built out a network of programs aimed at improving educational access for children and expanding opportunities for teenagers and young adults across Colombia, with education as the throughline of everything it does.
Few artists carry the weight that Shakira does in Colombia, and her presence in Chocó this week is being read as a gesture of solidarity from one of the country's own, delivered in person rather than from a stage or a screen.

Amar'e Stoudemire is set to enter the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame during the Enshrinement Ceremony in Springfield, Massachusetts, tonight.
An achievement of this magnitude would lead to Stoudemire being surrounded by family and friends to celebrate his career. Ahead of the ceremony, we take a look at the NBA legend's personal life.
Stoudemire has four children and was married to Alexis Welch for nearly a decade. The two met as teenagers at a party hosted by rapper Nelly in 2002, around the time Stoudemire entered the NBA as a rookie.
They would begin to date soon after. This was the beginning of a 10-year-long relationship before they ultimately decided to tie the knot.
They took advantage of the 12-12-2012 date and got married on the rooftop deck of their Manhattan home. This was when Stoudemire was with the New York Knicks.
The nuptials were a fairly secretive affair, but Vibe.com reported that it was attended by a modest 12 guests.

Doc Rivers shares initial Celtics-Jaylen Brown trade reaction with Tommy Heinsohn 76ers story originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Celtics' Jaylen Brown trade was rather unprecedented for various reasons. Not only has the organization typically been one bringing in superstars rather than trading them away, but the team Brown was traded to was also stunning.
Considering the historic rivalry between Boston and Philadelphia, dating back to the early days of the NBA, they have never agreed to a trade of the magnitude they did this summer, with Brown now set to contribute to a likely ***** le contender alongside LeBron James, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. Doc Rivers, who coached the 2008 Celtics to a championship, had a similar reaction to most fans: shock.
Rivers recently shared his initial reaction to the Brown trade with reporters.
"I was surprised, like everybody else. And I was surprised that they did it with Philly," Rivers said.

Nearly 380 people are still missing, Colombia's agency for disaster preparedness and response said Thursday, after the quake damaged homes, schools, bridges and airports across a large swathe of the country.
"Our main efforts are focused on the missing," said President Abelardo De la Espriella in a statement late Wednesday, calling for unity.

His government has surprised some by turning down or limiting help from several countries in the region, after they offered immediate ***** istance following the 7.4 magnitude quake.

PEREIRA, Colombia, Aug 13 (Reuters) - With his lean, sinewy frame, and standing just over 5 feet (1.6 meters) tall, Julio Cesar Pineda feels he was destined for the work of burrowing into the debris of shattered buildings to find survivors — first when a quake hit his native Colombia in 1999, and again just this week.
His efforts have won him a nickname: "Rescate" ('Rescue').
When Monday's 7.4-magnitude earthquake pummeled western Colombia, the 67-year-old was at home, near the city of Pereira, in the country's coffee-growing region that was close to the epicenter of the disaster. A wall in his house collapsed, but Pineda was unhurt and decided to help those who might have been less fortunate.
"All I did was grab some gloves ... grab a helmet, and go save lives," Pineda told Reuters.

Dozens of people were killed after a powerful magnitude 7.4 earthquake rocked western Colombia early on Monday, Aug. 10.
The earthquake brought down buildings across several cities in the country and left people trapped in the rubble, local authorities said, according to Reuters.
The epicenter of the devastating earthquake was near San Jose del Palmar, in Choco, a sparsely populated province on Colombia's Pacific Coast. Choco Governor Nubia Carolina Cordoba-Curi said there were injuries and significant damage in Quibdo, the provincial capital, and warned residents about potential aftershocks.
Colombia's disaster agency said the shake, which happened at around 7:30 a.m. local time, was felt in nine departments and all 32 departmental capitals. The country's geological service measured the magnitude at 7.4 and said it struck at a depth of 60 miles.
The Aug. 10 earthquake in Colombia comes more than a month after a pair of devastating earthquakes struck Venezuela in late June, causing more than 5,000 deaths and leaving more than 16,000 people injured.

CALI, Colombia (AP) — A powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck western Colombia on Monday, killing at least 111 people, damaging hundreds of buildings and leaving many trapped under debris while their loved ones and rescue workers searched through rubble.
Search teams and civilians picked through the remains of destroyed buildings in the country's third-largest city, Cali, passing large pieces of concrete and other rubble down a long line of volunteers.
"Our building has basically been left in ruins, and the building next to ours? Completely collapsed," said Álvaro López, who cradled his dog as he watched the search. The desperate scene recalled the searches still ongoing in neighboring Venezuela weeks after that country was devastated by two powerful earthquakes.
Besides Cali, the quake ravaged cities across western Colombia, including Pereira, Quibdo and Manizales, and was felt in neighboring Ecuador and Panama. The epicenter was in San Jose Del Palmar, a community of about 4,800 people in the Choco region about 250 miles (400 kilometers) west of Bogota, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
Colombia's President Abelardo de la Espriella said at least 87 people were injured and around 1,600 buildings were damaged, including at least 61 that completely collapsed. He declared an emergency to expedite funding for the quake recovery while saying he would visit the disaster zone.
