No. 9 SMU aims to improve playoff odds vs. CalDrop in Boxing Day footfall ‘signals return to declining pre-pandemic levels’An awkward postgame interaction between Wisconsin coach Luke Fickell and Nebraska assistant Donovan Raiola on Saturday included a uniformed officer chasing down Raiola and briefly grabbing his arm. Three uniformed officers were escorting Fickell off the Memorial Stadium field near the South end zone after Nebraska’s 44-25 win while Raiola and several other Husker staffers walked in the other direction. A video uploaded on social media shows Raiola appear to speak and point in Fickell’s general direction before turning his back and continuing to walk away. It’s unclear if Fickell, whose head was turned, said anything. What’s the situation here with Luke Fickell and this Husker? #Huskers #Badgers 🌽 pic.twitter.com/xTUxbKIAuL One officer then took off in pursuit of Raiola, grabbing the Nebraska offensive line coach’s arm from behind and twisting him away from an attempted embrace with running backs coach EJ Barthel. Fickell continued on his way to the Wisconsin locker room. A 15-second conversation, eventually ending in a handshake, defused the situation as the officer walked away. Raiola is a former Wisconsin player who started 39 games for the Badgers from 2002-05, and is currently in his third season as Nebraska’s offensive line coach. Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule said he was shown video of the incident on Monday morning. "I don’t want speculate without knowing, obviously Donny went to Wisconsin so I don’t know if there was some history there with somebody or something," Rhule said. "When I asked Donny about it, he was like, ‘No big deal.’ Things happen after games and people are emotional, but he seemed to kinda brush it off.” Fickell was also asked about it during his Monday media availability. "I don't really know much about it," Fickell told reporters. "I mean, I don't know if he was talking to Casey (Wisconsin offensive line coach Casey Rabach), somebody said something, I don't know. I just said it looked like maybe he said something to me, but I had no idea. And I had no idea that that was even something. So, if it was, I didn't spend a whole lot of time thinking about it."

NEW YORK (AP) — Technology stocks pulled Wall Street to another record amid a mixed Monday of trading. The S&P 500 rose 0.2% from its all-time high set on Friday to post a record for the 54th time this year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 128 points, or 0.3%, while the Nasdaq composite gained 1%. Super Micro Computer, a stock that’s been on an AI-driven roller coaster, soared 28.7% to lead the market. Following allegations of misconduct and the resignation of its public auditor , the maker of servers used in artificial-intelligence technology said an investigation found no evidence of misconduct by its management or by the company’s board. It also said that it doesn’t expect to restate its past financials and that it will find a new chief financial officer, appoint a general counsel and make other moves to strengthen its governance. Big Tech stocks also helped prop up the market. Gains of 1.8% for Microsoft and 3.2% for Meta Platforms were the two strongest forces pushing upward on the S&P 500. Intel was another propellant during the morning, but it lost an early gain to fall 0.5% after the chip company said CEO Pat Gelsinger has retired and stepped down from the board. Intel is looking for Gelsinger’s replacement, and its chair said it’s “committed to restoring investor confidence.” Intel recently lost its spot in the Dow Jones Industrial Average to Nvidia, which has skyrocketed in Wall Street’s frenzy around AI. Stellantis, meanwhile, skidded following the announcement of its CEO’s departure . Carlos Tavares steps down after nearly four years in the top spot of the automaker, which owns car brands like Jeep, Citroën and Ram, amid an ongoing struggle with slumping sales and an inventory backlog at dealerships. The world’s fourth-largest automaker’s stock fell 6.3% in Milan. The majority of stocks in the S&P 500 likewise fell, including California utility PG&E. It dropped 5% after saying it would sell $2.4 billion of stock and preferred shares to raise cash. Retailers were mixed amid what’s expected to be the best Cyber Monday on record and coming off Black Friday . Target, which recently gave a forecast for the holiday season that left investors discouraged , fell 1.2%. Walmart , which gave a more optimistic forecast, rose 0.2%. Amazon, which looks to benefit from online sales from Cyber Monday, climbed 1.4%. All told, the S&P 500 added 14.77 points to 6,047.15. The Dow fell 128.65 to 44,782.00, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 185.78 to 19,403.95. The stock market largely took Donald Trump’s latest threat on tariffs in stride. The president-elect on Saturday threatened 100% tariffs against a group of developing economies if they act to undermine the U.S. dollar. Trump said he wants the group, headlined by Brazil, Russia, India and China, to promise it won’t create a new currency or otherwise try to undercut the U.S. dollar. The dollar has long been the currency of choice for global trade. Speculation has also been around a long time that other currencies could knock it off its mantle, but no contender has come close. The U.S. dollar’s value rose Monday against several other currencies, but one of its strongest moves likely had less to do with the tariff threats. The euro fell amid a political battle in Paris over the French government’s budget . The euro sank 0.7% against the U.S. dollar and broke below $1.05. In the bond market, Treasury yields gave up early gains to hold relatively steady. The yield on the 10-year Treasury climbed above 4.23% during the morning before falling back to 4.19%. That was just above its level of 4.18% late Friday. A report in the morning showed the U.S. manufacturing sector contracted again last month, but not by as much as economists expected. This upcoming week will bring several big updates on the job market, including the October job openings report, weekly unemployment benefits data and the all-important November jobs report. They could steer the next moves for Federal Reserve, which recently began pulling interest rates lower to give support to the economy. Economists expect Friday’s headliner report to show U.S. employers accelerated their hiring in November, coming off October’s lackluster growth that was hampered by damaging hurricanes and strikes. “We now find ourselves in the middle of this Goldilocks zone, where economic health supports earnings growth while remaining weak enough to justify potential Fed rate cuts,” according to Mark Hackett, chief of investment research at Nationwide. In financial markets abroad, Chinese stocks led gains worldwide as monthly surveys showed improving conditions for manufacturing, partly driven by a surge in orders ahead of Trump’s inauguration next month. Both official and private sector surveys of factory managers showed strong new orders and export orders, possibly partly linked to efforts by importers in the U.S. to beat potential tariff hikes by Trump once he takes office. Indexes rose 0.7% in Hong Kong and 1.1% in Shanghai. AP Business Writers Matt Ott and Elaine Kurtenbach contributed.READY FOR PRIME TIME?

Anne-Mette Elkjær Andersen Joins Tannenbaum Helpern as Partner in the Firm's Corporate Practice GroupWASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump called his meeting with Justin Trudeau productive and said the prime minister made a commitment to work with the United States to end the drug crisis amid the threat of stiff tariffs. "We discussed many important topics that will require both Countries to work together to address, like the Fentanyl and Drug Crisis that has decimated so many lives as a result of Illegal Immigration, Fair Trade Deals that do not jeopardize American Workers, and the massive Trade Deficit the U.S. has with Canada," Trump said in a post on Truth Social Saturday. Trudeau flew to Florida Friday evening to attend a dinner at Mar-a-Lago, where Trump's transition team is based. The in-person meeting came at the end of a rocky week in which Trump threatened to impose 25 per cent tariffs on all imports from Canada and Mexico, unless the two countries stop illegal border crossings and prevent illicit drugs from entering the United States. Trudeau thanked Trump for the dinner in a post on social media on Saturday. "I look forward to the work we can do together, again," Trudeau said in the post that included a picture of the two leaders sitting at a table and smiling together. Trump said he and Trudeau discussed the drug crisis and the president-elect made it "very clear that the United States will no longer sit idly by as our Citizens become victims" of the drug epidemic, which he attributed to cartels and fentanyl coming from China. "Prime Minister Trudeau has made a commitment to work with us to end this terrible devastation of U.S. Families," Trump posted. Trump's post did not directly mention tariffs and it's unclear whether the prime minister's visit has alleviated his concerns about the border. A statement from the Prime Minister's Office said the leaders "shared a productive wide-ranging discussion" centred on collaboration and strengthening the bilateral relationship. "As Canada's closest friend and ally, the United States is our key partner, and we are committed to working together in the interests of Canadians and Americans," the statement said. Trudeau had a notably rocky relationship with the Republican leader during the first Trump administration. However, the prime minister was the first G7 leader to visit Trump since the Nov. 5 election. Trudeau's invitation to Mar-a-Lago says a lot about the working relationship, a senior government source said, speaking on background. The dinner lasted more than three hours. Sources said Trudeau and Trump discussed trade, border security, Ukraine, NATO, icebreakers, the Middle East and the Group of Seven meeting in Alberta next year. They also talked about energy projects, including the Keystone Pipeline, Line 5, Trans Mountain Pipeline, and other topics related to liquefied natural gas. It was described as a friendly and welcoming dinner. Trump's social media post about the meeting with Trudeau appeared much more collaborative in tone than his response to a phone call with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum earlier this week after which he claimed a tariff victory. Trump wrote Wednesday that Sheinbaum had agreed to stop unauthorized migration across the border into the United States, "effectively closing our Southern Border." The Mexican president said that it was an "excellent" conversation but countered that her country was already doing its part. "We reiterate that Mexico's position is not to close borders but to build bridges between governments and between peoples," Sheinbaum said. Trump's return to the White House has brought concern to America's closest neighbours. He has long used the threat of import taxes to pressure other countries to do his bidding, saying last summer that "the most beautiful word in the dictionary is 'tariff.'" The Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement is up for review in 2026 and experts suspect this week's tariff announcement is a negotiating tactic. Canadian premiers have been calling on Trudeau to be more proactive in his approach to the incoming Trump administration. More than 77 per cent of Canadian exports go to the United States and provincial leaders have said Trump's duties would be devastating. Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he was glad Trudeau met Trump to learn more about the president-elect's concerns. But Ottawa has to show the premiers a plan to make the border more secure to avoid "disastrous tariffs," Ford said in a statement on social media. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said she believed Trump and Trudeau had a constructive conversation. Speaking on her provincewide call-in radio shown Saturday, Smith said it was notable the conversation included the energy sector. Canada is the largest source of U.S. energy imports, and almost all Canadian crude oil exports went to its neighbour in 2023. The Alberta premier said it's critical to demonstrate how Canada's energy aligns with American's domestic and international interest. "Our strategy is this: let's talk to the Americans about the things we know they need and use that as a leverage point to make sure that we have zero tariffs on all goods," Smith said. — With files from Kyle Duggan in Ottawa, Rob Drinkwater in Edmonton and The Associated Press This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 30, 2024.
