Harvey, Irma, Jose, Katia, Maria… the list is long, and could still grow.
These are the names of some of the strongest hurricanes ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean… and they're all from this season.
September may have been the worst month for hurricanes… ever.
The devastation has been almost beyond comprehension. Mass evacuations, flooding, and ultra-high winds caused power, water, food, and gasoline shortages that have affected millions of people.

The earnings calendar for April 25, 2017, is jam-packed.
And we have our eye on the earnings reports of five big companies.
The Dow Jones news today features another busy day of earnings as investors await details on President Trump's tax policy.
But investors are still taking a wait-and-see approach to the U.S. debt ceiling debate, Greek bailout talks, and the upcoming French presidential election.

I played basketball in high school long before I was an engineer or a trader. Our archrival was Blacksburg High – the nemesis in what was our biggest game of my senior year.
A guy called Mark was guarding me throughout this game. He was a good player and excellent all-around athlete; he was certainly bigger, faster, and stronger than I was.
But Mark didn't know I had one killer advantage. I practiced basketball. A lot. Especially my signature "crossover" move – a fake in one direction followed by a quick step in the other direction, so you cross over in front of your man in a way they're not expecting.
I drilled so consistently and thoroughly on this move, I could pull off a perfect, devastating crossover in my sleep, if I do say so myself.
So when the time came, I easily left this bigger, faster, stronger player in the dust to make a fourth-quarter layup that gave our team the lead for good.

In Dow Jones news today, the markets climbed past 21,000 after President Trump's speech to Congress on Feb. 28.
