Stocks Plunge as Trump Trade War Heats Up
U S stocks suffered their worst daily loss of the year as a global selloff spread. China let the yuan slide to a decade low and halted farm product purchases in apparent retaliation to Trump threats of new tariffs on about 300 billion dollars of Chinese goods. The Dow fell 767 points, the S P 500 shed 3 percent, and the Nasdaq declined 3 5 percent as investors weighed a slowing world economy and weakening corporate profits.

Canary Islands study to host alternative site for TMT telescope
Spain's Canary Islands Astrophysics Institute says its researchers have received a letter from the Thirty Meter Telescope project board to seek a building permit for La Palma as a backup site. The plan to place a 1.4 billion dollar telescope construction on Mauna Kea remains, despite Native Hawaiian protests. The Hawaii Supreme Court previously allowed the initial permit, while Hawaii DLNR granted a two year extension for start of construction.
