Ninety-five years ago, today, in 1929, the collapse of U.S. stock market prices intensified.
Just five days after nearly 13 million shares were sold, an additional 60 million shares
were sold on Black Tuesday.
This event further fueled the crisis known as the Great Depression.
So now you know.
And now, it's time for the weather report.
This morning, it's patchy frost and feels like 30 degrees, with 4 mile per hour wind.
The sunset will take place at 540 and it will rise again tomorrow at 715.

Sunny mornings send you.
In local news, many residents in the greater Boston area awoke to the smoky scent of brush
fires, primarily from a blaze consuming over 80 acres in Salem.
Reports on Monday morning detail the haze and smoke permeating the area.
The smoke's extensive reach is attributed to an atmospheric inversion, trapping it near
the ground, allowing it to infiltrate nearby towns and cities.
Other minor fires, including one in Stoughton, are also contributing to the air quality issues.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency warns that air quality may be unhealthy
for sensitive groups, advising them to limit outdoor activities.
Now on to sports.
On Monday night football in Pittsburgh, the Steelers, now 6-2, edge past the New York
Giants, 2-5 with a 26-18 victory.
Calvin Austin went off with a 73-yard hunt-return touchdown and a 29-yard catch from Russell
Wilson.
Despite a late surge by the Giants, T.J.
Watts, Strip Zach, and Beanie Bishops' interception secured Pittsburgh's 22nd consecutive home
win under the Monday night lights.
Last night, the Dodgers secured a crucial 4-2 win over the Yankees in Game 3 of the
World Series, taking a commanding 3-0 lead.
Freddie Freeman homered again, and Betts clutch single-powered the Dodgers at Yankee Stadium.
Walker Bueller delivered a solid outing, earning the win with five innings of work.
New York's late efforts fell short, with Verdugo's homer marking their only highlight.
Tonight, it's Game 4 of the World Series.
The Dodgers will use their bullpen as starters for this game, while Lewis Gill takes the
mound for New York.
Expect a mild 60 degrees in the Bronx.
The Yankees are favored by 1-1.5 runs.
Let's see if the Yankees can avoid the sweep.

Costco has recalled over 100 cases of Kirkland's signature smoked salmon after laboratory tests
revealed the presence of Listeria, a bacteria that poses serious health risks.

The affected product is packaged in vacuum-sealed, black-bordered plastic labeled smoked salmon
and distributed from October 9 to October 13.

especially those at risk.
In Business News
JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the United States, has initiated legal action against
customers for check fraud, linked to a viral technical glitch on TikTok.
This glitch, occurring in late August, allowed users to deposit large checks and ATMs and
withdraw funds before the checks cleared, even if they eventually bounced.
Former lawsuits were filed in federal courts in Los Angeles, Houston, and Miami, accusing
individuals and businesses of improperly keeping over $600,000 after depositing counterfeit
checks.
JPMorgan is working with law enforcement to address these incidents, emphasizing that
"...fraud is a crime affecting everyone."
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $70,900.
Ethereum is just over $2,600.

Let's talk tech.
Apple recently secured a minimal victory in its ongoing legal battle with health technology
company Massimo, winning $250,000 in a patent infringement case.
The jury determined that Massimo's watches closely resemble the Apple Watch.
Massimo initially sued Apple in 2020 over its blood oxygen sensor technology, claiming
infringement after Apple hired a former employee.
Despite the verdict, Massimo considers the outcome a win, as it can continue selling
its products.
Apple is appealing an import ban that affects its latest smartwatch models, aiming to restore
its blood oxygen feature.
And in entertainment news, a new remake of American Psycho is on the horizon, with Luca
Guadagnino set to direct this fresh interpretation of Brett Easton Ellis's captivating novel.
The original film, released over 24 years ago, featured Christian Bale as the infamous
Patrick Bateman, whose portrayal has inspired countless memes.
This new film aims for a distinctive vision, potentially showcasing a diverse cast.
Contenders for the role include Timothee Chalamet, known for his intense performances, and Phil
Skarsgard, famous for his chilling roles.
Other strong candidates are Andrew Scott and Dev Patel, both capable of delivering the
character's dark nuances.
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from the American musician, Ben Harper.
And he said,
Life is short, and if you're looking for extension, you had best do well.
Casso's good deeds, and then have good intentions.
They are as far apart as heaven and hell.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
