Wall Street Rises as Shutdown Fears Ease

U.S. stocks climbed on Monday as optimism grew that lawmakers are moving closer to ending the government shutdown. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all posted gains, buoyed by investor confidence that a recent vote in Congress could pave the way for a resolution. The rally was broad-based, with technology, financials, and consumer sectors leading the charge. Analysts noted that easing political uncertainty often sparks renewed risk appetite, and Monday’s session reflected that trend. While concerns remain about the long-term economic impact of the shutdown, traders welcomed signs of progress in Washington. Market watchers say continued momentum will depend on whether a final agreement is reached swiftly, but for now, Wall Street is breathing a sigh of relief.

Israeli Cabinet to Vote on Ceasefire Deal with Lebanon

 

The Israeli cabinet is set to convene on Tuesday to vote on a proposed ceasefire deal with Lebanon, according to a senior Israeli official. This meeting comes amid ongoing hostilities and follows a year of cross-border hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

The proposed deal, backed by the United States, includes an Israeli military withdrawal from southern Lebanon and the deployment of Lebanese army troops in the border region within 60 days. A five-country committee, including France and chaired by the United States, will monitor compliance with the ceasefire.

Despite the diplomatic progress, tensions remain high as both sides continue to engage in military actions. Israeli airstrikes have targeted Hezbollah-controlled areas in Beirut, while Hezbollah has launched rocket attacks on Israel.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has yet to comment on the reports, but the senior Israeli official confirmed that the cabinet meeting is intended to approve the ceasefire text.

The outcome of Tuesday's vote could mark a significant step towards ending the conflict and bringing stability to the region.
