WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a challenge to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s ability to fight fraud, part of a broad attack on regulatory agencies led by conservative and business interests.The case before the justices Wednesday involves the Biden administration’s appeal of a lower-court ruling that threw out stiff financial penalties imposed on hedge fund manager George R. Jarkesy by the SEC.The high court’s decision could have far-reaching effects on the SEC and other regulatory agencies, and it’s just one of several cases this term that could constrict federal regulators. The court’s conservative majority has already reined them in, including in last May’s decision sharply limiting their ability to police water pollution in wetlands.Last year, a divided panel of the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Jarkesy and his Patriot28 investment adviser group on three separate issues.It...Dollar Tree: Fiscal Q3 Earnings Snapshot

(CNN) — A los 10 meses de edad, Kfir Bibas ha pasado más de una quinta parte de su joven vida en cautiverio; su rostro de ojos saltones y su cabello rojo brillante son un vívido símbolo del dolor y sufrimiento que soportan las familias rehenes de Israel.Más de 50 días después de su secuestro por militantes de Hamas en su casa en el sur de Israel, la familia de Kfir dice que no están más cerca de saber si está a salvo o incluso vivo.“Estamos muy, muy preocupados por él”, dijo a CNN Eylon Keshet, un primo de la familia, sosteniendo una fotografía del bebé.“No estamos seguros de si podrá lograrlo. Cada día que permanece allí supone un peligro real, real para su vida”.Kfir, su hermano Ariel, de cuatro años, su madre, Shiri, y presumiblemente su padre Yarden fueron secuestrados en Nir Oz, un kibutz israelí que quedó devastado cuando fue atacado por militantes de Hamas el 7 de octubre.

DETROIT (AP) — General Motors says pretax earnings took a $1.1 billion hit this year from a six-week strike by autoworkers, but the company expects to absorb the costs of a new contract and is even raising its dividend. The Detroit automaker on Wednesday reinstated its full-year earnings forecast that was withdrawn after the United Auto Workers began targeting the factories of Detroit automakers with strikes on Sept. 15. Those strikes continued at GM until Oct. 30.The company now predicts full-year net income of $9.1 billion to $9.7 billion, down from its previous outlook of $9.3 billion to $10.7 billion. But GM expects to generate more cash for the full year. It expects free cash flow of $10.5 billion to $11.5 billion, an increase from a previous forecast of $7 billion to $9 billion.To get there, GM expects to cut capital spending, including a slowdown in spending on electric vehicles and at Cruise, its troubled autonomous vehicle unit.
