  Apple reportedly cutting iPhone Air production due to low demand. The iPhone Air could be on its way to “RIP 2025–2025” meme status. Apple is telling supply partners to slash production of the skinny iPhone after it posted weak sales in its first few weeks on the market, Nikkei Asia reported. The other models in the new iPhone 17 lineup are reportedly selling well, and Apple plans to maintain its current production estimates. The Air has been criticized by techies for its relatively low battery life and single camera, though some have applauded its light weight. Experts say it could serve as the forerunner to the oft-rumored foldable iPhone.

  US grid investments are projected to jump 23% between 2025 and 2030 as utilities and private investors respond to surging power demand. The rise follows a 27% increase from 2020 to 2025. Key drivers include the rapid growth of data centers, new manufacturing facilities and broader electrification. Companies like Avangrid and PG&E are leading the charge with multi-billion-dollar commitments, while federal policies under both Biden and Trump administrations have shaped the pace and focus of grid modernization.

• Weak oil prices weighed on Q3 US upstream O&G dealmaking
  US upstream oil and natural gas mergers and acquisitions fell 28% sequentially...
  US upstream oil and natural gas mergers and acquisitions fell 28% sequentially to $9.7 billion in the third quarter, according to Enverus, which attributed the decline to an unfavorable price environment. "Most remaining shale M&A opportunities need stronger pricing to justify public companies paying for the undeveloped locations," said Enverus analyst Andrew Dittmar.

  The three major U.S. stock market indexes all closed higher on Thursday.

  
  

  Stocks trended generally higher throughout the day. However, they pulled back slightly from session highs in the final minutes of trading.

  
  

  Investors reacted as corporate earnings continued to roll in, and as U.S. trade tensions seemed to ease. The White House revealed that President Donald Trump has a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping scheduled for next week.

  
  

  The indexes traded near record levels on Thursday but couldn't surpass the highs set earlier this month. The S&P 500 clocked in its third-highest close in history.

  
  

  The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 46,734.61, up around 0.3%.

  
  

  The S&P 500 closed at 6,738.44, about 0.6% higher.

  
  

  The Nasdaq Composite closed at 22,941.80, about 0.9% higher
