"economic pressure from China’s army of smelters has been constant over the years & caused the US industry to downsize in the late 2000s and mid-2010s while demand for US copper dwindled. Now, demand is back—but the US capacity isn’t." https://t.co/f23R5vp6cb

"Today's not the day for a fiscal update," says Carney when asked by @jacoblorinc whether the government's still on track for a $62B deficit after this new $9B in spending. He seemed to suggest earlier that he'll help pay for this by shifting around money from other programs

Aaron Gordon: "I would really, really appreciate it if there were a couple of days in between games in the playoffs instead of every other day. The product of the game would be a lot better. You'll see a higher level of basketball. Probably less blowouts"
