Minnesota Timberwolves, securing a decisive 114

00:05:19.230 --> 00:05:23.189

to a 70 -40 scoring advantage in the second half.

00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:39.279

sports. Last night at Rogers Center, the Friars

00:05:43.699 --> 00:05:48.259
fell to the Blue Jays 3 -0. Despite efforts from

00:05:48.259 --> 00:05:51.120
the lineup, San Diego couldn't crack Toronto's

00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.920
pitching. Cease took the loss, giving up three

00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:58.089
runs over seven and two -thirds innings. while

00:05:58.089 --> 00:06:01.970
Guerrero Jr. and Santander each hit crucial homers

00:06:01.970 --> 00:06:05.810
for the Jays. Bassett secured the win with six

00:06:05.810 --> 00:06:09.470
strikeouts, and Hoffman claims the save. The

00:06:09.470 --> 00:06:13.350
Padres now stand at 27 -19 with their fourth

00:06:13.350 --> 00:06:16.949
straight loss. Tomorrow afternoon, they face

00:06:16.949 --> 00:06:20.110
the Blue Jays in Toronto for game two of a three

00:06:20.110 --> 00:06:24.689

00:06:24.689 --> 00:06:29.649
.35. challenges Kevin Gosman, sporting a 4 .59

00:06:29.649 --> 00:06:38.189
ERA. First pitch at 407. In top news, Medicaid

00:06:38.189 --> 00:06:40.930
may not hold the same political weight as Social

00:06:40.930 --> 00:06:44.529
Security, but it is a crucial issue akin to a

00:06:44.529 --> 00:06:48.990
Costco hot dog. Covering nearly 80 million Americans,

00:06:49.110 --> 00:06:52.550
mostly with low incomes, Medicaid and the Children's

00:06:52.550 --> 00:06:55.259
Health Insurance Program account for about one

00:06:55.259 --> 00:06:58.120
-tenth of the annual United States budget and

00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.620
18 % of total health care spending, totaling

00:07:01.620 --> 00:07:06.180
nearly $800 billion per year. Amid discussions

00:07:06.180 --> 00:07:09.379
about a tax and spending package, President Donald

00:07:09.379 --> 00:07:12.560
Trump urged Republican lawmakers not to cut Medicaid,

00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:16.139
but instead to target tremendous waste, fraud,

00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.740
and abuse within the program. He emphasized,

00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:23.209
we're not changing Medicaid. and we're not changing

00:07:23.209 --> 00:07:28.490
Medicare. In business news, stock trading appears

00:07:28.490 --> 00:07:31.649
to be relatively healthy, yet a recent rise in

00:07:31.649 --> 00:07:34.649
options hedging strategies suggests that challenging

00:07:34.649 --> 00:07:39.329
times may lie ahead for investors. As earnings

00:07:39.329 --> 00:07:42.029
season concludes, attention shifts to various

00:07:42.029 --> 00:07:45.470
market -moving factors, including tariff negotiations

00:07:45.470 --> 00:07:49.939
and economic reports. The recent uptick in hedging

00:07:49.939 --> 00:07:53.199
activity, particularly ahead of anticipated interest

00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.279
rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, signals a potential

00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:59.980
shift in market dynamics. Aggressive investors

00:07:59.980 --> 00:08:03.079
might explore a ratio spread hedge strategy,

00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:06.019
which could maximize profits while navigating

00:08:06.019 --> 00:08:10.300
the complexities of market volatility. This approach

00:08:10.300 --> 00:08:13.060
aims to leverage potential stock movements and

00:08:13.060 --> 00:08:17.100
the influence of sophisticated traders. In crypto

00:08:17.100 --> 00:08:23.319
movement, Bitcoin is up 1 % to about $108 ,000.

00:08:24.420 --> 00:08:30.000
Ethereum is up 1 % to just under $2 ,600. And

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:36.259
Goatsies Maximus is down 2 % to $0 .16. Moving

00:08:36.259 --> 00:08:40.759

00:10:28.419 --> 00:10:31.019
power of artificial intelligence in filmmaking.

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:35.000
The collaboration will see three filmmakers use

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:38.639
Google's text -to -video tool, Vio, to create

00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:43.039

promising to revolutionize the creative process.

00:11:09.769 --> 00:11:13.090
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote

00:11:13.090 --> 00:11:17.029
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:17.029 --> 00:11:20.169
American inventor and businessman, Thomas Edison.

00:11:21.289 --> 00:11:26.049
