Post Politics Now: It’s debate night in Pennsylvania, with Fetterman and ...
Quick Glance: John Fetterman's performance in the lone Pennsylvania Senate debate against Mehmet Oz took center stage.
  • HARRISBURG, PA — During a high-stakes U.S. Senate debate Tuesday night, Democrat John Fetterman claimed to fight for working people but struggled at times to express his beliefs, while Republican Mehmet Oz tried to claim the center lane politically but largely avoided policy issues.

  • "If you believe that the choice for abortion belongs between you and your doctor, that's what I fight for," Fetterman added.

  • Fetterman spokeswoman Joe Calvello said Fetterman performed better than in previous primary discussions before his stroke.

  • "John Fetterman performed great tonight for a man who was in a hospital bed just several months ago," Calvello added.

Quick Glance: Market Volatility in Asia: Impact of Meta's Losses
  • The depreciation of Asian currencies against the U.S. dollar and potential actions by monetary authorities are at the forefront of Asian markets.

  • Post-market gains from U.S. tech giant Meta could impact Asian markets as shares dropped by 10% after trading hours.

  • Concerns surrounding currencies are escalating as the dollar breached 155.00 yen on Wednesday without any indication of intervention from Japanese authorities. Will Tokyo take action?

  • Given the current environment that led to a rare joint statement on exchange rates from the United States, Japan, and South Korea this month, no possibilities can be ruled out.
