Our PureVest Weekly Roundup looks at the reading on third-quarter GDP, which signaled economic growth after two-quarters of negative growth. Big tech (META, AMZN, GOOG, MSFT, AAPL) reported earnings this week. Elon Musk is the official new owner of Twitter, taking the company private and cleaning house in his first 24 hours. Pending home sales declined again as high mortgage rates and prices continued to impact housing affordability. With 11 days until the midterm elections, we added an article highlighting key trends heading into election day. We reposted our latest PureVest blog post and wrapped it up with information on how your social security benefits are taxed at the Federal and State levels. Enjoy the light reading, and have a great weekend!
