The Phillies announced the deal on Monday. They did not provide the terms of the agreement, but it is reportedly worth $8.5 million. An All-Star in 2022 and 2023, Romano spent the first six seasons of his major league career with the Toronto Blue Jays. He has 105 career saves and a 2.90 ERA in 231 relief appearances. Of the 17 pitchers in the majors with at least 100 save opportunities since 2019, Romano’s 88.98% save percentage ranks second, trailing only Josh Hader (187 for 210, 89.04%). Among all pitchers in baseball since 2019, Romano’s 105 saves rank ninth. The 31-year-old Romano was limited to just eight saves in 15 games last season. He had arthroscopic surgery on his elbow in July. Romano's arrival could lead to the departures of one or both of Carlos Estévez and Jeff Hoffman from Philadelphia. The former All-Star relievers both closed games for the Phillies last season but each suffered epic meltdowns in the postseason. Both pitchers are free agents. AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb

BROADCOM, a chip supplier for Apple and other big tech companies, posted better-than-expected profit in the fourth quarter after artificial intelligence demand helped bolster growth. Profit was US$1.42 a share in the period, excluding some items, the company said in a statement on Thursday. Revenue rose to nearly US$14.1 billion. Analysts had estimated US$1.39 a share in earnings and revenue of US$14.1 billion on average, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Sales will be US$14.6 billion in the fiscal first quarter, which runs through January, in line with estimates. The results suggest that demand for AI computing is offsetting a slowdown in other areas. Like Nvidia, Broadcom is positioning itself to be a major beneficiary of AI spending. The stock rose about 4 per cent in extended trading following the announcement. It had been up 62 per cent in 2024 through the close. Investors have piled into Broadcom’s stock this year, betting that the AI frenzy will fuel a sales surge. The Palo Alto, California-based company had predicted that it would get more than US$10 billion in annual revenue from that market, outpacing other parts of its business. Ultimately, the number reached US$12.2 billion in the last fiscal year. AI revenue grew grew 220 per cent during the year, fueled by demand for AI processors and networking components, chief executive officer Hock Tan said in the statement. Tan has assembled one of the most valuable companies in the chip industry through a string of acquisitions. He also has built a software unit that’s approaching the scale of its semiconductor operations. That reach makes the company’s forecasts a bellwether for demand over a broad swath of the technology industry. Data centre providers rely on Broadcom’s custom-chip design and networking semiconductors to build their AI systems. The company also sells components for cars, smartphones and internet access gear. Its push into software, meanwhile, includes products for mainframe computers, cybersecurity and data center optimisation. Apple is a top customer of Broadcom and provides key components for the iPhone. During earnings calls, Tan typically gives updates on Broadcom’s often-contentious relationship with that company, which he refers as his “large North American customer” or another vague term. Bloomberg News reported earlier that Apple would start switching away from a key Broadcom wireless chip starting next year. The iPhone maker has been replacing suppliers’ components with in-house versions, a trend that’s also set to hit chipmaker Qualcomm. Broadcom’s semiconductor division had revenue of US$8.23 billion billion in the three months ended Nov 3, up 12 per cent. Software sales grew nearly 200 per cent to US$5.82 billion. The company is much larger than it was a year ago, partly because of its acquisition of VMware Inc, which it bought for roughly US$69 billion. Prior to the report, analysts raised concerns that Broadcom’s chip design business was suffering from weaker demand. They cited the slower introduction of a new version of a Broadcom processor for Alphabet. BLOOMBERGGift guide: Game changers for building fires, printing photos or watching birds

Join Alliance Entertainment's Exclusive Live Investor Webinar and Q&A Session on December 10Girls basketball: Jaguars in red hot form, Falcons win two straightTrump offers support for dockworkers union by saying ports shouldn’t install more automated systemsLucid ( LCID 4.53% ) stock climbed in Thursday's trading. The electric vehicle ( EV ) company's share price ended the daily session up 4.5% and had been up as much as 7% earlier in the day's trading. Lucid stock gained ground today thanks to strong early reviews for the company's Gravity SUV. The vehicle is the first SUV made by the luxury EV company. Gravity's Grand Touring models start at $94,900, and Lucid plans to roll out a lower-cost model next year. Lucid stock gets a lift from Gravity reviews Lucid announced last week that production on the Gravity SUV had started at its manufacturing plant in Arizona. This Tuesday, the company announced that the environmental protection agency (EPA) had finalized certification that the vehicle has a range of 450 miles on a full charge. Now, the company has gotten its vehicle into the hands of automotive reviewers -- and early results are largely positive. Today, InsideEV published an early recap of its trial of the Gravity last week. While the reviewer noted that his time with the vehicle was relatively short, he said that his first impressions were positive and that the vehicle "is fun to drive, pleasant to spend time in and has extremely impressive specs across the board." Meanwhile, outlets including MotorTrend , Car and Driver , and Edmunds published preliminary reviews of the Gravity on Tuesday. MotorTrend said that the Gravity marked a significant departure from Lucid's Air sedan and delivered the company's hallmarks of range, design, and performance. Meanwhile, Car and Driver indicated that the SUV delivered some significant improvements compared to the company's sedan, and Edmunds said that the vehicle set a new benchmark for electric SUVs. What's next for Lucid? As the company's first foray into the electric SUV space, Gravity is an important release for Lucid. While the company's Air sedans have generally received high marks from drivers and review outlets, adoption for the vehicles has been relatively low. The EV specialist sold 2,781 vehicles in this year's third quarter, which was up roughly 90% year over year. But the sales performance was aided by price cuts and still looks small compared to numbers put up by other players in the EV space. Meanwhile, the business posted a net loss of roughly $992.5 million in the quarter. Lucid's long-term success hinges on ramping up demand and production to the point where manufacturing cost per unit is brought down enough to make vehicle sales profitable. The company has a long way to go on that front, but the Gravity stands a good chance of outselling the Air and helping the business significantly expand its sales base.

Trump's 2024 Campaign & Elon Musk's Success: Digital Marketing Parallels by FlyX Marketing Founder Albert Valiakhmetov

A judge has once again rejected Musk's multi-billion-dollar Tesla pay package. Now what? DETROIT (AP) — For a second time, a Delaware judge has nullified a pay package that Tesla had awarded its CEO, Elon Musk, that once was valued at $56 billion. On Monday, Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick turned aside a request from Musk’s lawyers to reverse a ruling she announced in January that had thrown out the compensation plan. The judge ruled then that Musk effectively controlled Tesla’s board and had engineered the outsize pay package during sham negotiations. Lawyers for a Tesla shareholder who sued to block the pay package contended that shareholders who had voted for the 10-year plan in 2018 had been given misleading and incomplete information. US job openings rose last month, though hiring slowed, in mixed picture for labor market WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of job postings in the United States rebounded in October from a 3 1/2 year low in September, a sign that businesses are still seeking workers even though hiring has cooled. Openings rose 5% to 7.7 million from 7.4 million in September. The increase suggests that job gains could pick up in the coming months. Still, the latest figure is down significantly from 8.7 million job postings a year ago. Last month, job openings rose sharply in professional and business services, a category that includes engineers, managers, and accountants, as well as in the restaurant and hotel and information technology industries. Trump vows to block Japanese steelmaker from buying US Steel, pledges tax incentives and tariffs HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump is underscoring his intention to block the purchase of U.S. Steel by Japanese steelmaker Nippon Steel Corp., and he’s pledging to use tax incentives and tariffs to strengthen the iconic American steelmaker. Trump said during the campaign that he would “instantaneously” block the deal, and he reiterated that sentiment in a Monday night statement. President Joe Biden also opposes Nippon Steel’s purchase of Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel. A secretive U.S. committee is reviewing the transaction for national security concerns, and federal law gives the president the power to block the transaction. Nippon Steel is pledging to invest in U.S. Steel’s factories and strengthen the American steel industry. China bans exports to US of gallium, germanium, antimony in response to chip sanctions BANGKOK (AP) — China has announced a ban on exports to the United States of gallium, germanium and other key high-tech materials with potential military applications. The Chinese Commerce Ministry announced the move after the Washington expanded its list of Chinese companies subject to export controls on computer chip-making equipment, software and high-bandwidth memory chips. Such chips are needed for advanced applications. Beijing earlier had required exporters to apply for licenses to send strategically important materials such as gallium, germanium and antimony to the U.S. The 140 companies newly included in the U.S. so-called “entity list” subject to export controls are nearly all based in China. Small business owners brace for Trump's proposed tariffs Small businesses are bracing for stiff tariffs that President-elect Donald Trump has proposed as one of his first actions when he takes office. Trump has proposed importers pay a 25% tax on products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China, as one of his first executive orders. This means small businesses may end up paying more for goods and services. Small business owners say they’re waiting to see what final form the tariffs take, but are bracing for higher costs that they may in turn need to pass on to consumers. A top Fed official leans toward December rate cut but says it depends on economic data WASHINGTON (AP) — A top Federal Reserve official says he is leaning toward supporting an interest rate cut when the Fed meets in two weeks but that evidence of persistent inflation before then could cause him to change that view. Speaking at George Washington University, Christopher Waller, a key member of the Fed’s Board of Governors, said he was confident that inflation is headed lower and that the central bank will likely keep reducing its key rate, which affects many consumer and business loans. But he noted that there’s a risk that inflation “may be getting stuck above” the Fed’s 2% target, which would support an argument for keeping the Fed’s rate unchanged this month. US closes investigation into E. coli outbreak linked to onions in McDonald's Quarter Pounders The federal government has closed its investigation into an E. coli outbreak tied to McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburgers after determining there is no longer a safety risk. The outbreak began in late October and sickened at least 104 people in 14 states, including 34 who were hospitalized, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. One person in Colorado died and four people developed a potentially life-threatening kidney disease complication. The FDA linked the outbreak to yellow onions distributed by California-based Taylor Farms and served raw on Quarter Pounders at McDonald’s restaurants in Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and other states. McDonald’s briefly pulled Quarter Pounders from one-fifth of its U.S. restaurants. Melinda French Gates plans to match $1M in GivingTuesday gifts to groups that support women NEW YORK (AP) — Melinda French Gates is offering to match up to $1 million in gifts to two nonprofit organizations to help spur donations on GivingTuesday. The Tuesday after Thanksgiving, GivingTuesday has become a major annual fundraising day for nonprofits. Through her organization Pivotal Ventures, French Gates will match up to $500,000 in donations to the Vote Mama Foundation and the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers. In an interview with The Associated Press, she said, “It’s a great time to remind people that we’re better off when we give something back and we all have something to give back." Stock market today: Wall Street inches higher to set more records NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks tiptoed to more records after a quiet day of trading. The S&P 500 edged up by 2 points, or less than 0.1%, on Tuesday to set an all-time high for the 55th time this year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.2%, while the Nasdaq composite added 0.4% to its own record set a day earlier. Treasury yields held relatively steady after a report showed U.S. employers were advertising slightly more job openings at the end of October than a month earlier. The South Korean won sank against the dollar after its president declared martial law and then later said he’ll lift it. Is Enron back? If it's a joke, some former employees aren't laughing HOUSTON (AP) — Enron, the Houston-based energy company that exemplified the worst in corporate fraud and greed in America after it went bankrupt in 2001, is coming back. But the infamous company's return seems to be an elaborate joke. If its return is comedic, some former Enron employees who lost everything in the company’s collapse aren’t laughing. They're angry at a publicity stunt they say minimizes what they went through. Enron was once the nation’s seventh-largest company, but it went bankrupt amid massive accounting fraud. On Monday, a company representing itself as Enron announced it was relaunching as a “company dedicated to solving the global energy crisis.” But a paper trail of legal documents points to the comeback being parody and performance art.Trump Leveled This Condescending Remark At A Female Journalist — And Experts Have Thoughts
