DOJ Moves For Permanent Dismissal Of Charges Against 2 Ex-Cops In Breonna Taylor Case Authored by Troy Myers via The Epoch Times, The Department of Justice (DOJ) is looking to permanently dismiss the cases against two former Louisville police officers connected to the night Breonna Taylor was killed six years ago, according to court documents filed Friday. Former Detective Joshua Jaynes and former Sgt. Kyle Meany were accused of falsifying a warrant that led to the botched police raid on her apartment the night she died. Federal prosecutors said in the motion that their charges should be “dismissed in the interest of justice.” Lawyers for Jaynes, Travis Lock, told The Epoch Times in an email that he and Jaynes were “extremely happy” to learn of the DOJ motion. Michael Denbow, lawyer for Meany, wrote in an email to The Epoch Times that “Kyle [Meany] is incredibly grateful for today’s filing.” “He is looking forward to putting this matter behind him and moving forward with his life,” Denbow said. Taylor’s mother, Tamika Palmer, criticized the motion by the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division to dismiss Jaynes’s and Meany’s cases. “I am compelled to express my extreme disappointment in [President Donald] Trump and the Department of Justice,” Palmer said in a post on Facebook. Following Taylor’s death, the city of Louisville paid a $12 million wrongful death settlement to her family. Previously a federal judge dismissed the most serious charges—deprivation of rights with an enhancement of use of a dangerous weapon causing death—brought by the DOJ under President Joe Biden against Jaynes and Meany. Taylor, 26 years old at the time of her death in March 2020, was shot by police while three officers served a no-knock warrant as part of a drug investigation into her boyfriend, suspect Kenneth Walker. While carrying out the raid, Walker fired a shot that hit an officer in the leg. He later said he acted under the belief that intruders were breaking in. Police returned fire, and seve...

Solskin/DigitalVision via Getty Images Overview I have been at a “ Buy ” on Apogee Therapeutics ( APGE ) due to its potential in atopic dermatitis (AD) and Asthma. Apogee’s zumilokibart (APG777) is a subcutaneous monoclonal antibody that targets IL-13 dosed just 2-4x a year. While chronic disease markets favor infrequent dosing due to increased compliance, indications like AD and Asthma are crowded. And zumilokibart is also tasked with being, at worst, safe and non-inferior to popular alternatives like Sanofi's ( SNY ) DUPIXENT When I last wrote on Apogee, zumilokibart advanced to a Phase 2 clinical trial ( NCT06395948 ) in moderate-to-severe AD. Today, APGE is up 20% in intraday trading after reporting 52-week maintenance data in moderate-to-severe AD. So I thought now was a good time to reevaluate the stock. Moderate-to-Severe AD Before I get into zumilokibart’s data and compare it to current treatments, we have to point out some caveats beyond the obvious (i.e., cross-trial comparisons). Apogee’s Phase 2 utilizes an “as-observed” analysis rather than a “non-responder imputation.” This almost always results in higher reported efficacy percentages because it excludes the patients who leave the trial. While this is reasonable to use in what is essentially a proof-of-concept trial, you can bet that Apogee’s Phase 3 trial will employ the usual statistical analysis. Author's Compilation For those who aren’t aware, EASI-75 is the key efficacy endpoint in AD. This basically tells us how many patients have seen at least a 75% improvement in their AD. It is considered clinically significant. While the company frames other endpoints (Itch-NRS, EASI-90, EASI-100) “as-observed,” the “money slide” compares maintenance of EASI-75 response based on NRI for systemic rescue medication use or treatment discontinuation due to lack of efficacy (a more conventional benchmark).

Welcome back to Canada Daily, the newsletter on business, economics and politics from Vancouver to Montreal and beyond. If this was forwarded to you, please sign up here . Canada is trying to clamp down on the number of temporary residents living in the country. As part of that effort, the government has slashed the number of study permits it issues each year. But there’s a catch, according to Auditor General Karen Hogan. The government lacks the controls to verify whether foreign students are complying with their visa terms — and it isn’t even sure whether students are leaving Canada after their permits expire, according to her latest report . Hogan found that while about 150,000 students were flagged in 2023 and 2024 for potential non-compliance, immigration officials only had the resources to investigate about 4,000 cases. Of those cases, 41% couldn’t be closed because students didn’t respond to the department’s inquiries. Hogan highlighted some of the risks the government still faces, even as it shrinks the international student program. Her office discovered that the government has failed to take action in cases where applicants used fraudulent documents or misrepresented information to get their permits. The majority of those students then went on to apply for other immigration permits — often with no note left in their files to alert public servants to their history of giving bad information. Canada is now seeing a dramatic slowdown in population growth. Still, it seems many Canadians would like the government to go further. A recent poll by Nanos Research commissioned by Bloomberg found more than half of respondents want Canada to accept fewer immigrants in 2027 than this year.

(RTTNews) - Elon Musk is rolling out a significant plan to build a $20 billion semiconductor factory, named Terafab, in Austin, Texas. This facility aims to meet the increasing demand for chips at Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, Musk's AI venture. It is to be situated close to Tesla's current gigafactory in eastern Travis County and will bring together chip design, fabrication, memory production, and packaging all under one roof. Musk mentioned that Terafab could crank out up to one terawatt of computing power each year, which is enough for hundreds of millions of AI chips that can power everything from self-driving cars to humanoid robots and orbital systems. The facility is set to focus on advanced 2-nanometer chip production, a field currently dominated by big names like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and Samsung Electronics. Musk pointed out that this project is crucial because outside suppliers aren't ramping up production fast enough to satisfy Tesla's needs, especially for the Optimus humanoid robots, the robotaxi fleet, and Full Self-Driving systems. The company expects to kick off production by 2027, but experts think it might be 2028 or later before we see full-scale output of these advanced semiconductors due to how tricky and expensive it is to set up a fully functioning fabrication plant.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI +1.38%) gained 1.38% to 46,208.47 as oil prices plunged following Iran conflict de‑escalation signals.. Market movers Industrials, financials, and travel companies erased some of their recent losses as oil prices fell. Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH +6.31%) soared 6.17% to finish at $20.12. American Airlines (AAL +3.64%) and Delta Air Lines (DAL +2.76%) also posted gains. Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO 5.77%) slid more than 5%. This could have been due to increased competition or news of a politician’s call for a pricing probe. AI bellwether, Nvidia (NVDA +1.80%), gained on broader sector strength. What this means for investors Today saw another volatile, headline-driven day of trading as investors weighed signs of de-escalation in the Iran war. Brent crude fell about 11% to finish below $100 a barrel, powering indexes higher. The conflict is now in its fourth week, and President Trump’s comments this morning fueled cautious hope that a prolonged conflict could be avoided. The bounce comes amid growing concerns about rising costs. The full impact of the spike in energy prices has yet to be seen. However, inflation may well increase, dashing investor hopes for multiple rate cuts from the Federal Reserve this year. For investors, the recent volatility highlights the importance of diversification. Portfolios with exposure to a mix of industries, including defensive sectors, tend to fare better during market downturns.

ISerg/iStock via Getty Images By Ezequiel Gomes Platinum ( XPTUSD:CUR ) extended its slide on Monday, March 23, with spot prices trading near $1,880 after dropping through $1,900 earlier in the day, as a sharp pullback in oil failed to deliver the kind of relief that might normally steady metals. The move left platinum looking vulnerable in the near term, with investors still more focused on firm U.S. yields and the aftereffects of last week’s inflation scare than on bargain hunting. The break lower has changed the tone of the XPT chart more than the daily percentage move alone suggests. Platinum is no longer just backing away from a crowded upside trade; it is now testing whether the market has enough conviction to hold anywhere below $1,900 after losing momentum so abruptly. What stands out technically is how quickly the recent support shelf gave way once the metal started leaning lower. A rebound from here is still possible, but it would need to recover $1,900 first and then work back toward the low-$1,920s before the structure begins to look less fragile. On the other side, if sellers keep pressing and the market fails to stabilize in the high-$1,800 region, traders are likely to start measuring downside risk against the $1,850 area rather than assuming the latest drop is close to exhaustion. Platinum price dynamics (February-March 2026) (Source: TradingView) The oil shock fades but not the damage The macro background seems a bit less hostile than it looked at the end of last week, at least on one front. Brent crude pulled back sharply after the latest geopolitical escalation cooled from previous days, but the reversal came after energy markets had already done enough damage to keep inflation nerves alive across commodities and rates. That matters because platinum is trading in a market that has stopped giving non-yielding assets much room to breathe when Treasury yields stay high. Even with oil easing, the U.S. rates picture remained restrictive enough to keep...

Driving after a DUI conviction can be a dicey experience. Many states require drivers, if they want to keep using their cars, to install ignition interlock devices that measure alcohol levels before allowing the vehicle to start. One of the most common is from Des Moines, Iowa-based Intoxalock, which takes the form of a small box with a plastic tube into which the driver blows. The box then measures the level of alcohol in the breath. You must be below your state's legal limit to start the vehicle. (In some states, the system will also log your location using GPS and/or take a photo of you every time you blow in the tube.) The interlock device can only be leased, and it costs around $70–$120 per month. Read full article Comments

Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI), developer of modular server and storage solutions, closed Monday at $21.58, up 5.11%. The stock bounced during the regular session as investors weighed governance and legal risks from the alleged AI‑server export‑control scheme against short‑term bargain hunting and shifting analyst views, and they are watching how investigations and potential index‑membership questions evolve. Trading volume reached 114 million shares, coming in about 240% above its three-month average of 33 million shares. Super Micro Computer IPO'd in 2007 and has grown 2,338% since going public. How the markets moved today The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) advanced 1.15% to 6,581, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX:^IXIC) added 1.38% to finish at 21,947. Among computer hardware industry peers, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) closed at $22.32, up 2.90%, and Dell Technologies (NYSE:DELL) finished at $164.59, gaining 4.39% as investors reassessed AI‑infrastructure demand. What this means for investors Investors should remember that Monday’s 5.11% bounce in Super Micro Computer’s stock came on a day when the market itself experienced a fairly strong rally. It also followed a week of concerning news for the company. Shares fell more than 32% last week as investors learned of a federal indictment alleging a $2.5 billion AI‑server export‑control scheme to China that is heightening legal and reputational uncertainty for shareholders. Time will tell how that indictment turns out, but there have been consensus “hold“ ratings and modest price targets from analysts, reinforcing skepticism about Super Micro Computer’s risk‑reward profile after the legal fallout. Another layer of complexity is Super Micro’s status in the S&P 500. Should the recent news and ensuing volatility result in removal from the index, that would be put additional pressure on shares. The bottom line is that despite today’s strong result, there’s plenty to take into consideration with this stock....

Key Points Vitesse Energy uses hedging to protect itself against oil price movements, but it's not perfect, and the stock still has exposure to oil prices. Until there's a definitive cessation of hostilities, oil stocks are attractive to buy because they provide protection against a high oil price. 10 stocks we like better than Vitesse Energy › Shares in Vitesse Energy (NYSE: VTS) were down by 6.6% at 12:30 a.m. today, only to recover a little later in the afternoon. The move comes as the price of oil corrected in light of President Trump's commentary on a constructive dialogue with the regime in Iran. While Iran has denied that any negotiations have taken place, investors are pricing in a more favorable outcome to the conflict, and one that could take the pressure off of oil supplies. Vitesse Energy's business model offers some protection As an oil company with significant exposure to higher-cost oil in the Bakken formation (primarily North Dakota), Vitesse is sensitive to oil prices. Vitesse operates an unusual business model: it owns and operates only 9% of the wells in which it has an operating interest, with the rest coming from owning stakes in wells operated by other oil producers. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » The company uses hedging to protect against downside risk from falling energy prices (64% of its expected oil production in 2026 is hedged, as is 44% of its expected natural gas production). In theory, the hedging strategy should isolate the risk in what the company does best: identifying, investing, and participating in productive oil wells in the Bakken. However, the reality is that oil producers, including the operators Vitesse invests in, will likely restrain activity if oil prices decline. Where next for Vitesse Energy Energy markets are likely to remain volati...

Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:BABA) has launched Accio Work, an autonomous AI taskforce tool aimed at small and medium sized enterprises. The company is separating its AI businesses from its cloud unit, reshaping how AI is organized within the group. These moves mark a shift from mainly using AI inside existing platforms to offering stand alone AI productivity products for external customers. For you as an investor, this matters because Alibaba is a major e commerce and cloud player that is now pushing further into commercial AI tools built on top of its existing infrastructure. The focus on small and medium sized enterprises targets a broad customer base that often looks for cost efficient automation and productivity solutions. The separation of AI from the legacy cloud segment gives Alibaba more flexibility in how it builds, prices, and partners around AI products over time.

Trump administration places Christopher Columbus statue on White House grounds toggle caption Jim Watson/AFP/Getty Images The Trump administration placed a statue of Christopher Columbus on White House grounds over the weekend, doubling down on its efforts to commemorate the 15th-century explorer. "As we celebrate our Nation's 250th anniversary of independence, the White House is proud to honor Christopher Columbus's legendary life and legacy with a well-deserved statue on the White House grounds," Davis Ingle, a White House spokesperson, said in a statement.

The marble statue depicted Columbus facing east towards the sun, and was dedicated by former Baltimore Mayor William Donald Schaefer and President Ronald Reagan in October 1984. Soon after, Pica, who also has served as a Maryland state senator, said his group hired divers to fish pieces of the statue out of the harbor.

The statue was installed around 2 a.m. Sunday morning, he said, and it is on loan to the White House until the end of Trump's term. "It's a place where it can peacefully shine and be protected," he added. Sponsor Message "It's a source of pride for Italian Americans," Pica said. "Christopher Columbus, notwithstanding the contr...
