"Last week was all about fear. This week, investors could turn to greed. After the stock market was rocked by its worst week in seven months, investors will now start to contend with the quarterly parade of updates on profits and losses from corporate America. These reports will either give credence to investors’ fears — that rising borrowing and operating costs, along with trade tensions, could hurt growth — or ease them. Strong economic growth and steep cuts in corporate tax rates produced overall jumps in corporate profits of 27 percent in the first quarter and 25 percent in the second. That helped push stock benchmarks to record levels as recently as September. For the third quarter, analysts at the financial data firm Refinitiv expect profit to rise 21.5 percent for the large companies in the S&P 500 index, but there are risks — and they mirror the worries that have dogged the markets in recent weeks. Foremost among them was a relatively sudden rise in interest rates....."

"Harris Corp. and L3 Technologies Inc. have agreed to merge, giving rise to a major US defense contractor focused on communications and electronics with a current combined market value of $33.5 billion. The deal has been approved by both companies’ boards and will result in L3 holders getting 1.3 shares of Harris common stock, they said Sunday. Harris shareholders would own about 54 percent of the combined company. The new L3 Harris Technologies Inc. will be the nation’s sixth-largest defense contractor. New York-based L3 and Melbourne, Fla.-based Harris describe the transaction as a merger of equals. Each company is known for its capabilities in communications and electronics."
