Good morning, Delaware County. Oil jumped 6% overnight โ one geopolitical flare-up and suddenly everyone remembers that energy markets have a short fuse. Stocks slid in sympathy, jobless claims quietly fell again, and Wall Street found time to pressure CSX into swapping out its CEO, proving that railroads aren't immune to a little shareholder turbulence. Meanwhile, Eric Adams officially exited the New York City mayoral race, and the Emmy nominations arrived with enough snubs to fuel a week's worth of takes.
