Wall Street follows global markets higher as the US Senate takes steps to end the shutdown
SUMMARY: Wall Street pointed toward strong gains before markets opened as a bipartisan deal to end the federal government shutdown gained traction in the Senate, though it lacked any clear resolution to expiring health care subsidies that Democrats have been fighting for. Rising hopes for an end to the longest federal government shutdown in U.S. history pushed futures for the S&P 500 0.9% higher early Monday, while Dow Jones futures gained 0.4%. Nasdaq futures climbed 1.5% on the strength of the technology sector. Health insurers were among the losers early Monday. Cigna, UnitedHealth Group and Humana all fell between 1% and 2% in premarket.

Tesla Cybertruck executive leaving the Musk-led automaker
SUMMARY: The executive leading Tesla's Cybertruck business is leaving the Elon Musk-led automaker after eight years. Siddhant Awasthi, the program manager for Tesla's Cybertruck and Model 3, said on LinkedIn that it wasn't an easy decision to depart the company. He did not provide details on what he will be doing next. Awasthi said he began as an intern at Tesla and was involved in "ramping up Model 3, working on Giga Shanghai, developing new electronics and wireless architectures, and delivering the once-in-a-lifetime Cybertruck - all before hitting 30. The icing on the cake was getting to dive back into Model 3 work toward the end."

Flight cancellations and delays worsen as government shutdown drags on
SUMMARY: Airports across the U.S. are experiencing significant disruptions due to the ongoing government shutdown. The Federal Aviation Administration has reduced flights as some air traffic controllers who have gone without pay for weeks have stopped showing up for work. The Senate took a first step toward ending the shutdown Sunday, but final passage could still be several days away and experts have said it will take time for flights to go back to normal even after the government reopens. Over the weekend, airlines canceled thousands of flights, with more cancellations expected, including at major airports like Newark and Atlanta.

China creates a new visa, competing with the US in wooing global tech talent
SUMMARY: China has a new visa scheme that is creating job opportunities for foreign professionals, part of its effort to attract global talent and gain an edge in global technology. The K-visa, similar to the H-1B visa in the United States, targets skilled science and technology workers. Tighter U.S. immigration policies and uncertainties around the H-1B visa system have made China relatively more appealing. However, language barriers, quality of life issues and internet censorship remain challenges. Analysts say the K-visa may help China attract more talented professionals from India and Southeast Asia, but the U.S. still holds a competitive edge.

How Gary Sinise is helping the nonprofit CreatiVets build 'a place to go when the PTSD hits'
SUMMARY: The nonprofit CreatiVets is transforming a once-abandoned church in Nashville into a 24-hour arts center for veterans and a community hub. Not only will the new center house the nonprofit's programs, including its songwriting program where veterans work with Nashville songwriters to make music out of their experiences in military service, it will provide a place where veterans can gather any time of day. CreatiVets co-founder Richard Casper, a Purple Heart recipient, says the center will offer creative outlets when PTSD strikes. It's an idea that resonated with actor/philanthropist Gary Sinise, who helped fund the effort through his Gary Sinise Foundation.

South Korean solar firm cuts pay and hours for Georgia workers as US officials detain imports
SUMMARY: A South Korean solar company says it will temporarily reduce pay and working hours for about 1,000 of its 3,000 employees in Georgia because U.S. customs officials have been detaining imported components for solar panels. Qcells announced Friday that it will also lay off 300 workers from staffing agencies at its plants in Dalton and Cartersville. U.S. Customs and Border Protection has been impounding Qcells components on suspicion that they contain materials made with forced labor in China. Qcells says none of its components are made with forced labor or come from China. The company says some shipments have been released and it plans to resume full production.

Flight cuts from government shutdown strain a supply chain that's already stretched thin
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration has announced a 10% reduction in flight capacity across 40 major U.S. airports. This could strain air cargo as the holiday season approaches. FedEx and UPS have major hubs at affected airports, including Indianapolis, Memphis, and Louisville. The reduction impacts domestic flights, not global ones. Shipping companies like FedEx are adjusting plans to ensure shipments continue smoothly. Smaller, high-value goods are more likely to be transported by air. Experts say the supply chain could slow, but airlines have become adept at managing such disruptions. The impact should be manageable unless reductions deepen.
