    April was not the cruelest month for investors—although the tariffmageddon-obsessed naysayers may be smarting. Despite a month of wild swings and gloomy forecasts, U.S. stock markets ended April nearly flat, brushing off predictions that Trump’s trade policies would trigger a historic collapse. The S&P 500 finished the month down just 0.8 percent. The Dow dropped 2.1 percent, and the Nasdaq edged lower by 0.3 percent. That mild performance stood in stark contrast to a mid-April Wall Street Journal article that warned of a “Trump rout” and suggested the Dow was on track for its worst April since 1932. It wasn’t....

    Amnesty defied as militants hang on to their arms By Jack Fairweather in Baghdad (Filed: 12/10/2004) Militants loyal to Moqtada al-Sadr failed to hand over substantial quantities of heavy weapons on the first day of a disarmament plan yesterday, bringing threats from the US military to launch more raids against the Shia cleric. Yesterday was meant to see Sadr's forces surrender their big guns in return for money from the Iraqi government. The amnesty was part of a deal to end months of clashes between militiamen and US forces in Sadr City, a huge Shia slum in Baghdad. An Iraqi...
