Dolly Parton's Sister Says Tennessee Machine Kept Defaulting To Blackburn; State Claims "Not A Vote Flipping Situation"
Stella Parton, Dolly Parton's younger sister, says a voting machine at the Hermitage Library in Davidson County kept selecting Republican gubernatorial nominee Marsha Blackburn, a candidate she says she would never vote for, forcing her to correct her ballot three times. Mediaite flagged her post. Tennessee's elections coordinator calls such reports unintended touches, and says the paper ballot, not the screen, is what gets counted.
"In Tennessee last week at the Hermitage Library where I voted, I had to go back three times and correct my vote because it kept defaulting to Marsha Blackburn," Parton wrote on Facebook. "Don't let them rig this election." Blackburn, a sitting U.S. senator, faces Democrat Jerri Green, a Memphis city councilmember, in the governor's race.
Parton said she finally called over a poll worker on the third try, and she...

Börsenpunk: KI-Rally am Limit – geht Nike die Puste aus? (Der Aktionaer)
|
|
|
Die Sorgen wegen der Investitionen in Künstliche Intelligenz ist an den Märkten noch längst nicht ausgestanden. Selbst starke Quartalszahlen reichen derzeit offenbar nicht immer aus, um Anleger zu überzeugen. Ein Beispiel dafür ist Meta: Obwohl die Bilanzvorlage grundsätzlich positiv ausfiel, geriet die Aktie unter Druck....

The young Americans choosing Y2K cars over shiny new SUVs: ′I get so much crap from people′ (The Guardian)

People under 35 are hunting for no-frills rides they can pay for in cash and fix themselves – defying expectations to take on steep loansJack Price joined the Marines in fall 2021 knowing he would need a car to get around base and that he couldn't afford a new one. A joyless, month-long search through dealer classifieds and Facebook Marketplace listings ended when his mother spotted a 2010 Volkswagen Jetta posted on her office listserv by a co-worker moving abroad. With just 60,000 miles (96,560km) on themeter, the car (a manual!) was mechanically sound, and the air conditioning, sunroof and Bluetooth radio worked too. At $6,000, it was a steal. Price paid in cash.Five years on, the Jetta, which he called the Pewter Pebble, is still carting him from A to B in unassuming style. “I've completely driven it into the ground,” says the 30-year-old, who lives in Los Angeles. “All over bases, cross-country a couple times, not really lovingly. I get so much crap from people, but not people my age.” Con...

SK Hynix Scraps Solidigm IPO, Single-Handedly Drags Kospi Out Of A 4% Hole And Easing AI Rout
Last night we were fairly confident how the Korean session would go.
Three hours until Korea is halted seconds after the open
— zerohedge (@zerohedge) October 22, 2026
Well, we were half right. The Kospi did crater at the open, sliding as much as 4.1% and more than halfway to triggering a market halt as Asia digested the overnight carnage in US tech (SOX -6.7%, META -7.0%). And then, over the course of the session, it climbed all the way back and closed green, up 0.30% at 5,550.
What changed? Well, according to Bloomberg, the biggest AI news out of Asia overnight was that SK Hynix scrapped plans for a potential $10 billion US listing of its Solidigm unit after facing strong opposition from regulators and shareholders. SK Hynix shares, which had dropped as much as 4.3% early, immediately reversed and rallied as much as 4.5% on the news, defying a broad market slide triggered by the rout in US tech....

Dirk Müller: "Im Moment wird High Roller gespielt" - KI-Risiken, drohende Kreditklemme und Chancen auf eine Jahresendrally (BRN)
|
|
|
Dirk Müller aka Mr. DAX erwartet keinen Börsencrash. Zumindest nicht unmittelbar. US-Indizes notieren nahe ihren Höchstständen. "Die Risiken nach unten sind massiv", warnt Mr. DAX, aber gleichzeitig steigen die Unternehmensgewinne. Deshalb hält Müller auch eine Jahresendrally für möglich. Seine größte Sorge gilt der Finanzierung des KI-Booms. Meta habe nach seiner Rechnung rund 750 Milliarden Dollar außerbilanzielle Verpflichtungen. Bei Techgiganten summierten sich solche Verpflichtungen auf Billionen. Der enorme Kapitalbedarf könnte kleinere Unternehmen verdrängen und Kreditengpässe auslösen. "Im Moment wird eben High Roller gespielt", sagt Müller. Er erwartet staatlichen Rückhalt für KI-Konzerne. "Wer die KI beherrscht, beherrscht künftig die Welt". Bei seinen Anlagen zählt nicht die Crash-Prognose, sondern das Marktverhalten. Sein Team reduziert KI-Titel und setzt stärker auf Gesundheitswerte sowie Software. "Ich habe keine Ahnung, was passiert", betont Müller. Qualität, Bewertu...
