Companies: American Airlines faces major operational chaos. The airline canceled nearly one thousand four hundred flights and delayed thousands more over the weekend, affecting about two hundred fifty thousand passengers. The companys chief operating officer called the disruptions simply unacceptable and blamed operational strain caused by air traffic reductions linked to the ongoing government shutdown. The Economy: Shutdown hits United States growth and paychecks. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that about one million two hundred fifty thousand federal workers have gone unpaid, resulting in nearly sixteen billion dollars in lost wages. The agency expects a one point five percentage point hit to fourth-quarter gross domestic product, with permanent losses near eleven billion dollars as travel and consumer spending weaken. Politics: Senate passes bill to end historic shutdown. Lawmakers approved a compromise measure restoring federal funding through January of twenty twenty-six, marking the longest shutdown in United States history. The bill passed sixty to forty in the Senate, with eight Democrats joining Republicans, and now moves to the House for a vote expected within days. Markets: Wall Street rallies on hopes of reopening. Major indexes closed sharply higher as investors anticipated government funding approval. Technology stocks led the advance, with Nvidia and Palantir posting strong gains while Treasury yields rose amid renewed market optimism.
