Latest news
- CVS Health plans to split itself up. Here's why a breakup could make sense now
CVS Health announced plans to split into two publicly traded companies by the first half of 2028, separating its retail pharmacy business, including roughly 9,000 retail locations, from its Aetna insurance business and its pharmacy benefit manager, Caremark. Analysts say the economics have changed, as retail pharmacy profits have become more consistent and Aetna has improved despite high medical costs in Medicare Advantage plans. CEO David Joyner said the company has beaten earnings estimates for eight consecutive quarters, cut $2 billion in costs and expects at least $15.5 billion in operating cash flow in 2026, up roughly 70% from $9.1 billion in 2024. Shares fell about 12% on the announcement, and the retail unit's adjusted operating margin of roughly 4% to 5% may keep it valued at a discount. Caremark also faces growing state-level scrutiny of its PBM practices.
- US Bank Regulator Issues First AI Framework as Banks Battle Rogue Agents
The U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency issued its first supervisory framework for AI in banking, directing examiners to focus on what happens when a system makes a mistake rather than how powerful it is. The framework flags external agents run by customers, fintechs or other businesses as a risk even when banks do not control them, and suggests measures such as identity verification, transaction limits, monitoring and the ability to suspend access. It comes less than two weeks after reports that major banks had found unauthorized third-party AI agents acting in customer accounts; according to Axios on October 22, Morgan Stanley blocked outside agents while JPMorgan, Bank of America and Citi restricted access. The 22-page document sorts risks into four tiers, placing fully autonomous payment agents and real-time credit decisions in the highest group, where tighter limits, independent testing and human approval may be warranted. The guidance is nonbinding and creates no new bank rules.
- Democrats take Congress in a blue wave. Here's what it means for your money
Democrats won control of both the House and Senate in the midterm elections, a shift that could reshape household costs including student loans, health insurance premiums, housing and taxes. Experts say voters were focused on rising costs, and the new majority can advance legislation, hold hearings and investigations, and influence confirmations. However, President Donald Trump can veto bills, Democrats are not expected to have the numbers to override him, and changes will take time since new members take office in January. On healthcare, Democrats may seek to restore part of the enhanced ACA premium subsidies that expired at the end of 2025 and loosen Medicaid work requirements set to start in 2027. On taxes, several temporary breaks expire after 2028 without an extension, while the fiscal year 2026 budget deficit reached nearly $2 trillion.
- New Flutter CEO bets on FanDuel promotions to win customers as profits suffer
New Flutter CEO Dan Taylor, five weeks into the role, is relying on better products and more generous customer rewards to turn FanDuel's improving engagement into stronger profits. Third-quarter revenue and adjusted EBITDA both missed Wall Street expectations, and the stock is down more than 60% year to date. FanDuel's average monthly U.S. sportsbook players rose 9% and bet counts rose 15%, but sportsbook revenue grew only 4% as promotional spending increased. Flutter posted a net loss of $1.15 billion, including an $873 million non-cash impairment tied mainly to Brazil, which banned sports betting and online gaming in September. The company cut $300 million from its full-year revenue midpoint, to $17.61 billion, and lowered its 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook by $160 million to nearly $2.5 billion; buybacks remain on hold until leverage returns to 2 to 2.5 times, which Taylor said could take roughly 24 months.
- Dow Surges After Democrats Sweep Midterm Elections
U.S. stocks rallied sharply Wednesday after Democrats won control of both chambers of Congress, as investors looked past election uncertainty toward possible policy gridlock. The Dow rose about 2.3%, the S&P 500 gained 1.72% and the Nasdaq added 2.13%, a reaction suggesting the outcome had largely been priced in before voting ended. AI data-center stocks such as Applied Digital, CoreWeave and Cipher Digital fell on concerns about greater congressional scrutiny of electricity use, water consumption and subsidies, while renewable-energy names including First Solar, Sunrun and Enphase rose. AMD also climbed after stronger-than-expected quarterly results and a forecast for faster growth in 2027, while Treasury yields declined and the dollar weakened.
- Ford's Q3 Sales Slipped. Here's the Silver Lining: Customers Are Splurging on Fancy Trims.
Ford's third-quarter revenue fell 2% year over year to $49.5 billion, yet adjusted EBIT rose 3% to $2.7 billion, as the company sold a richer vehicle mix and controlled costs. Combined sales of the higher-margin Explorer Tremor and Platinum trims rose 59.9% year to date through September, while Active and ST-Line trims grew 23.3%. Off-road models made up 24% of U.S. vehicle sales through September, up 3.8 percentage points, and F-Series had the lowest incentive spending among full-line truck brands in the quarter. Ford remains on track to cut warranty and material costs by $1 billion this year, excluding Novelis-related effects and tariffs. However, reported net income fell from about $2.4 billion to $2 billion, Ford Blue and Ford Pro EBIT both declined, and the article says the average new vehicle price near $50,000 is beginning to push some consumers out of the market.
