Health insurers slid as Washington signaled flat Medicare Advantage payments next year. Macro risks persist but markets are adapting. A new EU–India trade deal underscores shifting global alliances, while investors brace for a no-cut Fed decision and guidance on rates, labor, and AI-driven productivity. Trending tickers include UnitedHealth and peers under Medicare pressure, Pinterest amid layoffs tied to AI restructuring, and Corning after a $6 billion Meta fiber deal.
