Daily Links — Wednesday Evening, September 23, 2026
The Wednesday evening desk is markets and mayhem — no fresh Iraq headlines this round. On the money side, a bond bloodbath: better data and energy angst sent yields ripping, the dollar jumped, and stocks dumped, while Bill Holter warns higher rates 'will blow everything up.' In the world column, reports that armed Iranians killed a senior IRGC commander, and Trump meeting Venezuela's Rodríguez in New York. At home, Harvey Weinstein gets 15 years, a judge declines to immediately block the White House's ban on three outlets, shareholders sue the New York Times over its Israel coverage, and the Obamacare 'sweeteners' tangling budget talks. Here's the evening drop.
