What are today's top business/market headlines?

Here are the top business/market headlines as of Saturday, October 10, 2026 (U.S.):

•U.S. stocks closed higher on Friday, October 9, capping a record-setting week: S&P 500 +0.6%, Dow +0.8%, Nasdaq +0.6%. The 10‑year Treasury yield ended around 5.24%, and Brent crude settled near $104.72 amid continued volatility.[1]
•Trump says he struck a deal for Russia to ship diesel to the U.S.; energy analysts expect little impact on prices despite the headline volumes.[2]
•Hurricane Isaias is approaching the U.S. Gulf Coast; while major refining hubs may be spared a direct hit, power outages could still nudge gasoline and diesel prices higher. Offshore evacuations and shut-ins have already reduced Gulf oil output substantially.[3]
•Consumer backdrop: A preliminary University of Michigan reading shows 1‑year inflation expectations ticking up to 4.7% in October, part of Friday’s market narrative.[1]
