October Friday Closing changes week to week.

OCT: Week 1 - 10/06/17: https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/278014/stock-market-news-for-oct-6-2017
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at 22,775.39 UP $394.39
Nasdaq Composite Index (IXIC) closed at 6,585.36 UP $131.91
S&P 500 Index (INX) closed at 2,552.07 UP $42.01

OCT: Week 2 - 10/13/17: https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/278753/stock-market-news-for-oct-13-2017
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at 22,841.01 UP $65.62
Nasdaq Composite Index (IXIC) closed at 6,591.51 UP $6.15
S&P 500 Index (INX) closed at 2,550.93 Down $1.14

From Zacks: New Economic Data
The weekly initial jobless claims plummeted to 243,000 from last week — a decline of 15,000. This marked its lowest level in as many as six weeks. The consensus estimate for the period was 255,000 claims. Economists commented that only a few Americans applied for unemployment benefits in this period as business resumed in Texas and Florida, with more people resuming work, post the recent carnage by two destructive hurricanes.
Moreover, initial claims in Puerto Rico were also lower not because of people going back to work but due to the absence of electricity after the island was ravaged by Hurricane Maria. Consequently, people could not file claims from the island nor could the claims be processed. As a result, the analysts expect such claims to show up in the coming weeks.

OCT: Week 3 - 10/20/17: https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/279501/stock-market-news-for-oct-20-2017
Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at 23,163.04 UP $322.03
Nasdaq Composite Index (IXIC) closed at 6,605.07 UP $13.56
S&P 500 Index (INX) closed at 2,562.10 UP $11.17  recovering over last week.

From Zacks:  The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) Jones and S&P 500 overcame selling pressure and eked out records on Thursday that marked the 30th anniversary of the ’87 crash. Robust third-quarter earnings results provided a fillip to the equity market, with American corporations showing signs of strength on the back of an improving economy. Political tensions in Europe and lackluster economic reports out of China failed to dent investors’ sentiment. On the other hand, a report that showed Federal Reserve Governor Jerome Powell is the leading candidate for the nominee for Fed chair boosted investors’ confidence. Appointment of Powell would represent a continuation of the central bank’s current regime.

2. First Nations seek to raise Canada's rent after 150 years of $4 payments
   The First Nations claim that their ancestors initially balked at what seemed like a paltry sum for their resource-rich land. “So what William Benjamin Robinson said – and I’m paraphrasing – was: ‘Here’s what I’ll do. I’ll offer you this annuity and if the territory produces more revenue for the crown, the annuity will be increased accordingly,’” said Mike Restoule, one of the representative plaintiffs in the case.
   The treaty stipulates that any increase in the annuity “shall not exceed the sum of 1-pound provincial currency in any one year, or such further sum as Her Majesty may be graciously pleased to order”.
   More than a century after the first increase, despite petitions and appeals from First Nations chiefs to various levels of government, the annuity remains unchanged.

The proposed Brackets. A higher bracket is possible through Congressional action.

1. The Trump Tax Plan https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/trump-tax-reform.pdf

2. The Standard Deduction (as in non-itemized) will double. $12k for singles, $24k married.

   1. Alternative Minimum (AMT)is removed

   2. Increased Child Tax Credit (Under age of 17)

   3. Adult Dependent tax credit of $500

   4. Removal of the Estate Tax (or as they would like the american farmer to believe, the Death tax)

   5. Deductions for State Income Tax are going away (Double taxation on income??)

   6. Corporate Tax Rate is being cut from 35% to 20%

      1. S-Corp an small business taxes are capped at 25%

   7. How they propose to be “Fiscally responsible” and “The Trump tax cuts are fully paid for by”:

      1. Reducing or eliminating deductions and loopholes available to the very rich, starting by steepening the curve of the Personal Exemption Phaseout and the Pease Limitation on itemized deductions. The Trump plan also phases out the tax exemption on life insurance interest for high-income earners, ends the current tax treatment of carried interest for speculative partnerships that do not grow businesses or create jobs and are not risking their own capital, and reduces or eliminates other loopholes for the very rich and special interests. These reductions and eliminations will not harm the economy or hurt the middle class. Because the Trump plan introduces a new business income rate within the personal income tax code, they will not harm small businesses either.

      2. A one-time deemed repatriation of corporate cash held overseas at a significantly discounted 10% tax rate. Since we are making America’s corporate tax rate globally competitive, it is only fair that corporations help make that move fiscally responsible. U.S.-owned corporations have as much as $2.5 trillion in cash sitting overseas. Some companies have been leaving cash overseas as a tax maneuver. Under this plan, they can bring their cash home and put it to work in America while benefitting from the newly-lowered corporate tax rate that is globally competitive and no longer requires parking cash overseas. Other companies have cash overseas for specific business units or activities. They can leave that cash overseas, but they will still have to pay the one-time repatriation fee.

      3. An end to the deferral of taxes on corporate income earned abroad. Corporations will no longer be allowed to defer taxes on income earned abroad, but the foreign tax credit will remain in place because no company should face double taxation.

      4. Reducing or eliminating some corporate loopholes that cater to special interests, as well as deductions made unnecessary or redundant by the new lower tax rate on corporations and business income. We will also phase in a reasonable cap on the deductibility of business interest expenses.

2. House Budget Bill https://www.washingtonpost.com/powerpost/house-passes-2018-budget-taking-a-crucial-step-toward-tax-overhaul/2017/10/05/5ea7294e-a9d1-11e7-850e-2bdd1236be5d_story.html?utm_term=.1841f3e45fe5
