The U.S. healthcare system ranks last among 10 countries in access, equity, and outcomes, despite spending over 16% of its GDP on healthcare. Key issues include high costs, a fragmented insurance system, and significant numbers of uninsured and underinsured individuals, leading to poor health outcomes and limited access to care. Recommendations for improvement include extending coverage to the uninsured, reducing administrative complexity, and investing in public health.
The European Central Bank (ECB) has cut its key interest rates for the third time since June, with the deposit rate now at 3.25% and the main refinancing rate at 3.40%. This decision comes amid economic distress and weak manufacturing indicators, although the ECB maintains a soft landing outlook for the economy. Future rate cuts are anticipated, influenced by ongoing wage demands in the service sector, which could keep rates higher than pre-pandemic levels.
UBS has maintained a 'Neutral' rating for Nokia, setting a price target of 3.55 euros following the company's third-quarter results, which fell short of sales expectations. While the operating result met forecasts due to a favorable product mix and cost-cutting, the analyst anticipates a slight decline in consensus estimates for the operating result due to more pessimistic annual targets.
